A FAREWELL SOCIAL

The Social Thirty gave farewell
social at the home of Mrs. Nels
Christensen on Friday afternoon OF
last week, for Mrs. M. J. Cleveland,
who left on Saturday to join her
husband at Browerville.
Although a blizzard was raging the
ladies were nearly all present, a bob
sled having been procured, with pro.
ficient driver, to make their presence
possible. Several guests outside the
Thirty were invited. Refreshments
were served and royal good time
enjoyed.
During the afternoon the president,
Mrs. Tobey, made little "poetical"
speech, at the close of which Mrs.
John Nelson gracefully presented
Mrs. Cleveland with beautiful berry
spoon engraved in the bowl with the
words, "Social Thirty" Mrs. Cleve-
land responded in a pleasing manner,
thanking the ladies for their kindness,
and expressing regret that duty called
her to sever her connections with
them.

friends on Thursday evening at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. o. p

with seven O'Clock supper.
On entering the house the guests

were given white clay pipes tied with
red ribbon and the gentlemen, red
tobacco pouches, we'll filled with the
fragrant weed. These being all
numbered there began lively hunt
for partners for supper. When all
were seated at ten small tables, the
supper began and was served in
courses, partners being changed
between each course. During these
changes there was instrumental music
by Mrs. Austin and Miss Whipple.
With the passing OF the finger-bowls
the gentlemen were hidden to seek
their first partner and, if possible, to
obtain the pipe so that he might use
his tobacco. The hearts of the ladies
were tender and in few moments all
the Lords of Creation' were upstairs
enjoying their pipes, while the ladies
spent social hour chatting in the
rooms vacated by the gentlemen. The
ringing of the bell called the house to
order again at 900 P. NJ. and all were
given cards in the shape of bell and
decorated with holly. After finding
partners cinch was played until eleven
O'Clock, when the winners, Mr..
Woodbury. and Miss Stiles, were
crowned and the losers, Mr.. Doolittle
and Miss Keller. received red Ounce
caps.
The rooms were decorated with
profusion of bells, in the New Years
colors, red and white, and red lamp
shades. The hostesses were dressed
in white. They were: Mesdames
Hilsdale, Barto, Ward, Whipple,
Marshall and Austin and Misses
Whipple and Stiles.
This was one of the most beautiful
entertainments ever given here.

HERO OF THE KEARSARGE.
How Turret Captain Rooster Died
After Explosion on Battleship.
(NeW York SIM.

The story of the death of a hero, an.
enlisted man of the navy who, although
mortally injured, wanted to go to the as
sistance of perishing comrades. and whose
delrium during the period between the
time he was injured and the time he died
was confined solely to carrying out his
duties, has just reached Washington
through the naval officers who witnessed
it. 1t was on the battleship Kearsarge
in ManzdnillO bayS in April, when two or
three hundred pounds of smokeless pow
der became ignited within the forward
23-inch gun turret, killing nine men, There
were many heroes that day, both among
the dead and living, but the case of Tur-
ret Captain Julius A. Rooster stood out
in holder relief to those who saw.
Target practice for that day had been
finished and the crew OF the forward tur-
ret were cleaning things up Rooster was
directing the extraction of unexploded
powder of an undischarged shell from the
breech of the gun. Three sections of pow
der. Were on the floor. A pair of iron
shell tongs struck an exposed electric
switch. There was a short circuit of
a powerful current, a fusing of metal, and
molten bits of fire dropped on the ex
posed powder.
Rooster was badly burned. Somehow he
managed to get out of the turret but
no sooner was he outside than he wanted
to go back in to help those who were
still there. An ensign ran forward His
first words to Rooster, standing there
A
flesh burned away, were
Don't touch yourself" Rooster was
doing his best TO keep on with his work.
I'm hurt bad" said he, but I'm not
saying anythir e."
Butter and lard were brought up from
below and applied to his awful wounds.
Rooster was taken to the sick bay and
laid on a cot. He became delirious and it
was evident that he was going to die. The
attendants, busy with other wounded,
listened TO him.
With voice just as clear and sharp as
it had been a few minutes before when
the Kearsarge went bounding through
Manzanillo bay, with the big 13-inch gun
blazing away at the target, Rooster was
putting his crew through target prac-
tice
Bulls eye-a beauty" he called as his
delirious brain saw shell hit the distant
target Bulls eye" he sang out again.
"Buly work" One by one Rooster count
ed many hits. He reached nineteen ''bull g
eyes" and added a word of encourage
ment.
Twenty shots and twenty hits. Hur-
rah for the Kearsargen1 and Rooster
threw up his arms and died
