Z. Hopkins, from the list of ladies at tending Mrs. Stedman's reception last Saturday.
 The steamer Vigilant arrived here It noon from her trip to Hadey, bringing as passengers Mr. Samuel Si'- verman. Martin Bugge, and the men : bers of the Wonderland Movil g Picture Company, the latter giving a very satisfactory performance to the delight and full attendance of sturdy Hadleyites.
 A quartette of "mighties," consist ing of Hon. George Irving, Philip Hickey, Harry Brice, and Charles Radenbaugh returned last night from a trip to the west coast. They say the weather was anything but pleasant, but are full of praise for the manner in which the SoIace conducted them through the rough seas While OF this trip, the Solace, through the courtesy of Hon. George, ever willing conveyed Mir. and Mrs. c. ". Fiekeri to their ome at Saint Mic iolas.
 The advent of ''Conn Il Bob's' transportation equipment was greeted quite heartily and rather q, biou,ly by a crowd of interested on ioukers this morning. Since the "Commo- dore" shipped the mule away, it is questionable 10 the average mind whether locomotion is to proceed for ward or backwards UT gyratory from horse power. The little animal stood the harness, hitching and hurrahs all right, and started of in perfecI trim to the entire satisfaction of all con- cerned. The driver of the new nov ing apparatus will be Fred, and will be known as a party of the aforesaid outfit under the name of the Inde- peuueut DTd. HE Non' pfby'

Bauer. upon his return few days ago, from Seattle, that he had con- mitted the act, and is now the proud possessor of belpmeet, friend and life companion.
 In consideration of the worthiness of the Doctor as man, as a valued citizen and genial companion. one of his particular friends, in token of es- teem, as we'll as following in the lines of time bonord custom, gave him a bachlore's farewell dinner at his res- idencce last Sunday. Those who have had the rare pleasure to sit at the table with Mir. W. A. Lapgille as host, know full well what joy there is
 in the eating, and what pleasure is found in his whole-souled open heart ed hospitality and the flow of wit which ensues. It was thus the Doctor was treated 10 his last sad farewell by Mir. Lapgille, assisted by Messrs Nieding, Busch, Wilkie and Crane. In all truth, be it said. the Doctor was launched forth as a benedict with all good cheer and with :be best wishes of the party. We may look for the arrival of Mrs. Bauer in the course of a week or ten--days. Mrs. Bauer was Miss Emma Farrsr. daughter of Mrs. Levina Farrar, of Seattle. A number of farewells were rendered in honor of tho hridc hv hap Gaettla friends
