Mrs. John Jorgenson left Sunday
for Cherokee, Iowa for q few days
visit. She was accompanied by her
mother Mrs. McManus who has been
spending a few weeks at the ranch.
The old friends Of DR.. McManus were
glad to meet her mother and only
wished she might have staid long
enough to have gotten better ac-
quainted.
Last week In mentioning the Christ
mas feast at the hospitable home Of
}Chas. Oates, we neglected to add the
family Of Ashley Dunham to the list
OF guests. In the evening Mr.. and
Mrs. J. +. Ziebach drove over feeling
sure OF a good time. Alter a ten
o'clock feast the party assembled In
the parlor to listen to a few musical
selections Sousa's band and Cryor's
orchestra rang forth from the pbono-
lgraph, Mr.. Oates played several se-
lections upon his violin, then, after
much solicitation upon the part OF
most oil the audience (there were a
few exceptions) Nessers Durham and
Seger and Mrs. Ziebach were con-
Quoted to the organ and proceeded
to execute u trio Erred Pippin in

stantly began upon the accompanl-
ment with the same fervor and abap-
don which characterize his baseball
playing. Mr.. Seger rushed into the
fnray with such impetuosity -tha: :
the third par" o: the "tryoh
was forced to shed tears, In fact
many of the -audiencs were also
sho wing signs Of emotion. When f.
nally Mr.. Seger repeats In heartfelt
tones "Why don't nobody kiss me no
more" there was no one who failed
to answer. After two stanzas had
been executed--it is the only word
strong enough for the occasion
boquets were shOwered upon the
musicians with such force that the
lconcert came to an abrupt end. Mr..
Oates was heard to say behind his
hand to Mrs. Oates, "Well Bess, this
beats ba king the cat"
