Mems Club Supper.

The Mems cluD supper gwen ldsl
evening at St Joseph's hall on Cross
istreet was a most pronounced success
socially and financially. The men OF
st. Josephls church were heaped with
praises from the hundreds who at
tended the supper and were pro-
nounced most delightful hosts. As was
stated I'm the Bulletin, the supper was
prepared in its entirety by the men
and served by them, and they proved
themselves more than equal to their
difficult task.
The hall was beautifully decorated
with the national cclors, two flags of
heroic size adorning the stage while
festoons of the red. white and blue
we're suspended from the corners of
the big hall to the electroliers, which
were adorned with small flags. The
tables were very attractive with white
linen and in the center of each was
a plant in blossom.
All the men who assisted as wait
ers. wore natty white duck suits and
white aprons and made a fine appear
ance. each one bearing with dignity
his new role. The Waldorf-Astoria
cafe is not to be mentioned as com
pairing with this affair as regards the
handsome and stalwart walters.
The menu was delicious and bOunti-
full beginning with roast turkey and
all the usual toothsome aecompani
ments. and ending with cake and cot.
fee. Appetizing hot rolls, as good as
the proverbial ones that mother used
to make" were one of the viands, and
there we're other things good for the
palate too numerous to itemize.
Fully five hundred persons were
served and nearly 5000 was realized
by the efforts of the club.

The waif that was found by the Sec
ond Precinct police on a doorstep in
James street three weeks ago has been
adopted by Mrs. Sarah Plum, the ma
tron of the Second Precinct. The little
miss now is Mary Adele Plum. She
was formally christened by the Rev. I.
P. Whelan, in st. Patrick's Cathedral.
She is adored by every member of the
family as though she was born to the
Plum home.
Mrs. Plum says she will not part with
the baby under any circumstances, and
that the parents would hav to fight
hard to get the baby away from her.
Mary Adele is the idol of every child
in the vicinity of Mrs. Plum's home, 113
Boyden street.
A great big dog known by the name
of Spot" has entered the race as a
protector, as it fondles the baby with
affection that Is impressive. Spot"
does not like strangers getting too ia
miliar with the baby, because as soon
as they do he asserts his right In the
premises by barking at them and
nosing them away.
The men of the Second Precinct
have decided to assist Mrs. Plum in
caring for the baby, by providing a
complete outfit and also a baby car
riage that any baby might be proud
to ride in. Mary Adele is now about
a month old, and is a very pretty little
girl.
