Covers were laid at a table ARA nsed

baskets of Mamon Cochet roses and

places on the table, and pink sa tin rib

further added to the beauty of the

course, there were toasts innum era BILE

in a more material way. The place
cards were in the design of Shriners'
caps with embossed figures upon them
and tiny tasses at the top. Each
guest wrote line on the back of his
cap, the \tasses were tied together and
they were all put into one of the big
baskets of roses from the table and
sent to Miss Davies by a messenger
Whether Gen. Wankowski's place
card was among the lot history does
not relate The truth is the generals
card was a little bit different from the
others. 1t was Shriner's cap, but in
stead of being small one it was a
large one, and the customary figures
were replaced by a caricature of the
generals ample proportions in evening
dress with a champagne glass in one
hand and Shriner's cap in the other
for target for a well directed-well,
never mind. Just one more good fling,
boys was written beneath it.
Senator Frank p. Flint was the toast
master, and needless to say he was a
genial one There We're toasts to every
thing and everybody and responses by
the score. The party sat down to a
dinner at the conventional hour. At
what time they got up no one knows.
