The amazing news comes from the
Mountains of east Tennessee that Hon.
Walter p. Brownlow is to be endorsed.
He has for years been the car OF the
Tennessee Republicans, and SO long as
Colonel II. Clay Evans, his bette noir,
was in foreign parts enjoying the fat
pickings of the London consul general
ship there was none Brownlow's right
to dispute from North Carolina to the
Mississippi. But Evans is now at
nome, anxious to be governor of the
Old Volunteer State, and as a counter
irritant to Brownlow it is proposed to
have Hon. A. G.. Taylor, brother to
Senator Bob, run as Republican can
didate with a nomination conferred
upon him by the boiling Evansites.
With Brownlow and Taylor both rum
ming and both claiming Republican reg
ularity, Democrat ought to be elected
from that district-the first since Bob
Taylor represented it in 1S78-79-

With Alfonso of Spain choosing
healthy, robust English girl for his
wife, and the stork lowering over the
royal palace at The Hague, one might
say that the king business Is doing
fairly well were it not for the @woeful
plight, to borrow a Clevelandesque
expression, in which Nicholas of Rus
STA finds himself. We can but wonder
If we are to have a repetition Of the
French revolution in Muscovy, only on
a far larger scale. There appears to
be a superabundance of explosive ma
terial. aud if there is any one to APP
ply the match the bloody scenes on the
Seine of a little more than century
ago may be considered mild beside
those on the Neva.

ALUMNI BANQUETED

The Twentieth Alumni of the
Sank Centre High School, given
Monday evening in the K. P. hall,
proved a most felicitous occasion.
Much praise is due to the officers,
Misses Erwin, Hansen, Robbins
and Davis, who had arranged every
detail SO carefully that all went off
without hitch.
The new class and the guests
assembled in the X. P. hall at s
O'Clock where the imitation and
installation ceremonies were held.
A picture that will linger long in
the memories of those who were
fortunate enough to attend, was
that made by the Glass of 1906 when
they were led into the hall for
imitation. The members inflated
were Jean Hansen, Alta Cass,
Bertha Kerneghan, Jane Cummings,
Belle Chisholm, Emma Working,
Phil Rich, Julian Dubois,
Nathaniel Swift and Grover
Dimond. The other two members
of the class were absent. Ruth
Eddy went to Glenwood to attend
the exercises of the class with whom
she had gone to school all her life,
and Guy Campbell had returned to
his home in Melrose.
The new officers installed were:
President, M. G. Kelsey; LIST Vice
Pres, Mrs. Chas. Fiesler; End Vice
Pres, August Dahlem; Sec., Miss
Edith Smith; Treas, Mrs. J. M.
Wadr.
At 1880 the guests adjourned
to the Palmer House. A long table
was arranged in the centre of the
room for the new members and was
decorated in the class colors, purple
and maze. The center piece was a
large candlebar holding many
lighted tapers. After an excellent
menu had been served, DR.. H. L.
Lamb arose and announced the first
speaker, Alphonso Barto. Mr..
Barto welcomed the Glass of 1906
in behalf of the Alumni and lived
up to the laudatory introduction
given him by DR.. Lamb. Phil
Rich of the Class of 1906, responded
to the address of welcome most
imp-essively. To Nellie Nc
Cormick was assigned the topic,
"Let's be Happy"
DR.. G. B. Lewis of St. Cloud,
responded to the toast "When we
Wander Back Again" He re-
sponded most feelingly in earnest
words and paid a most glowing
tribute to his Alma Mater.
The new president, M. G. Kelsey,
gave brief history of the associa-
ton, responding to the subject,
"Our Twentieth Milestone. Just
twenty years ago Mr.. Kelsey was
elected to fill the same office, that
of president, and has been one of
the most faithful members the
association ever had. He spoke
from his heart when he addressed
the association, and won hearty
applause.
When all the toasts had been
given DR.. Lamb acquitted himself
most credibly in telling what the
Alumni meant to him and urging
others to take more interest in
these yearly meetings.
The guests departed at l o'clock.
