Methodist Ice Cream Social.

A delightful ice cream social
was given by the ladies of the
Methodist church Wednesday
night. Chinese lanterns illumin-
ated the grass plat around the
church, and long, ample tables
were placed on the tagging. The
insects that had been SO much in
evidence at the Baptist ladies' So
cial were fortunately conspicuous
by their absence, fact which was
not regretted by the good naturel
crowd.
While ice cream, sherbet and
an abundant variety of fine cake
was served on the lawn, pleas
ing program was rendered in the
church. Mrs. Ross played an in
strumental selection after which
the Holly quartette composed of
Mr.. Ralph Randolph, Mr.. John
Norris, Mr.. Lo Linville and Mr..
Willie Baker sang. Miss Lita
Mckee played instrumental selec
tions. Mrs. A. H. Price sang
solo and Mrs. Price and her SIS
ter, Miss Elliott, sang a duet. Mr..
A. F. Dowell gave a recitation.
All the numbers on the program
were enthusiastically received.
Mrs. Ross did all the serving.
Mrs. Christopher, Miss Russell,
and Miss Zella Wood acted as
mattresses. Miss May Christie

Hartman o, Holly I.

The Holly baseball team cross
ed bats with Hartman on the lar
ter's grounds last Sunday. The
Holly team forfeited the game at
the end of the fourth inning with
the score 9 to in Hartman 5
favor. The trouble came through
the inability of any of Hartman's
umpires to tell when. their own
men were out.
This is the first game this sea-
son marked up against the Holly
team.

The other list is headed by John Craig

that will excite the anger of the people of
the north.
The tentative inscription which has been
published and which has excited SO much
comment has been materially softened as
a result Of the NEE ting Of the executive
board Of the United Daughters of the
Confederacy in Atlanta. 1t is believed
now that the inscription to go upon the
monument will be of such character
that 1t will state the facts for which the
south contended, but in softer and more
diplomatic terms than suggested at first.
Text Not Yet Public.
Mrs. A. B. Hull of Savannah, former
pres sident Of the Georgia Division. United
Daughters of the Confederacy. and who
was invited to attend the conference ejust
ended in Atlanta. states that the result
of the conference was in every way satis-
factory. She intimates that the inscrip-
ton. while decided upon, will not be given
to the public until the monument Is ready
to be unveiled.
It is now believed the inscription will
carry all the figures relative to the num-
Der of deaths in southern and northern
prisons and also the extracts from the
letters Of Gen. Grant and President Davis.
The principal change had to do with the
inscription upon the main face Of the
monument, which, as decided upon by
the committee appointed to prepare It,
contained the terms that were found
Objectionable This tablet, it is thought.

of Capt WirZ and some sentiment ex-
pressing in language that cannot be mis-
understood. but which will be inoffensve.

to his trial and execution. The meeting

Special Dispatch to The Star.
COLUMBUS Ohio, February S.-The
fight of the Foraker republicans against
the Taft movement is proving most per-
sistent. Former federal Judge +. ID. Wing
Of Cleveland brought 20 the supreme
court of the state this morning the
case which both the common pleas
and circuit courts at Cleveland decided
Yesterday In favor of the Taft committee.
that the Taft committee in Cuyahoga
county is the valid committee, and that
their call for the primary election to be
held next Tuesday must be observed by
the county board of elections. The su-
preme court accepted the case and will
hear it at 30 p. m. next Monday. Only
the fact that the election board is pro-
caedlng with the preparation of the bal
lots make it possible to prepare for the
Urinary election.
The Cuyahoga election board. dominated
by Foraker. at first recognized the Ia I
committee on, order of the state super
vision Of elections and at the same time
expressed its opinion that nevertheless
the Foraker committee was the valid one.
Later the board rescinded this action and
recognized the Foraker committee.
The question that the supreme court
will pass upon is whether the board
must follow the order of the state super
visor The real object of the persistent
fight by the Foraker republicans is said
to be to secure the retirement of Repre-
sentative Burton. Secretary Taft's friends
are seriously embarrassed in both Toledo
and Dayton by the vigorous opposition
from his friends there to the republican
bosses, Brown at Toledo and Briser at
Dayton. who are operating for and with
Taft and planning to retain control of
the local party organizations.
The anti-boss republicans are demand
ing that Taft repudiate these bosses,
quoting his celebrated Akron speech of
two years ago in support of their de-
mands, but of course his friends dare not
take such action.
