A Cinderella Dance.

For short summer nights dance to
be over at midnight an adaptation of
the Cinderella idea would furnish in
teresting suggestions for decorations
and also a clever excuse for bringing
the evening to a close promptly at u
o'clock" says August Home Compan-
ion. THE invitations should be on
cards in the shape of d slipper.
The dancing should cease at about
II o'clock, and the guests be conducted
to the supper, which, if it can be
served on a sheltered porch, will be all
the more enjoyable. In the center of
the table surrounded by flowers
should be a large white slipper. This
can be made by cutting a piece of
pasteboard into the shape of slipper
and covering it with crepe or tissue
paper Small china and glass slippers
surrounded by flowers may be placed
here and there over the table Small
slippers cut out of pastebOard and COW
cred will make dainty souvenirs. Elk
actly at midnight large gong or bell
should be struck II times very slowly,
and as soon as the last is sounded the
lights should be put out"

BY years of experience the branches

BIRTHDAY Of
NORWAY'S KING
FESTIVITIES MARK CELEBRATION
OF YOUNG MONARcH's
NATAL DAY.

CHRISTIANA, Aug. SKIING Haak-
on first sovereign of the new independ
ent Kingdom of Norway, is today cele-
brating his 36th birthday and the oc-
casion was marked by festivities
throughout the country. The capital
was deliberately decorated and there
was universal rejoicing among the peo-
pie. Diplomats presented the congrat-
ulations of their sovereigns. Several
cable messages of congratulation
We're received from Norwegian organi-
cations in the United States.
Kink Haakon was formerly Prince
Charles of Denmark before his eleyfa-
ton to the throne of Norway. He is
SON. n-law as well as nephew of King
Edward, Queen Maud being the young
est daughter of Great Britain's ruler.
He is also a nephew of King George
of Greece.
Today popular demonstrations ex-
hibited to the full the love and re-
spect which practically all Norwegians
have for their king. Never before in
the history of Europe has an alien ru-
Ter obtained such a hold upon the af-
fections of his subjects in so brief
time. Haakon has many traits which
has made him a fit successor to the
Morse kings of old.
AS a child he was set apart for q
naval career. To this end he was edu-
Gated by his father until he was four
teen years old, when he passed the
examinations for admission into the
Danish naval academy. There he spent
the regulation four years, faring just
as his comrades of non-royal blood
Jared, no better. no worse.
On leaving the academy he began
his active career as midshipman
That was in 1890. In the years that
followed he slowly mounted to the
grade of captain, attaining that rank
only a year or so before he was called
to the throne of Norway. When at
sea he was a hard worker. and he de
manded hard work from all under him.
Yet he was we'll liked by his officers.
and the common sailors We're known
to hold him in high regard
To this day his favorite associates
are men of the navy, and much of his
time is spent in the study of naval
problems. On returning from visit to
Copenhagen or a sojourn in England
Queen Mauds home, his first task is
to call in some of the high officials of
the Norwegian navy and engage in
long talks with them Given his way
his one subject of conversation is al
ways the sea, and things that apper-
tain thereto.
And this love for the sea pleases
bings who have made their history
have been men of the sea largely

The following Is taken from the
Hobart Daily Democrat:
Since coming here, j. b. Walton,
as a young business man, has IT fleet
ed credit upon the business ciicles OF
Hobart. No firm has been more
favorably known throughout the
Southwest than Walton L Walton,
and the reputation they have made
as q mortgage firm is second to none
in Oklahoma. This has been due,
however, to the personality OF the
WsltQns, whose names have stood
for the cleanest OF methods In every
detail OF business. Is is with exceed
Ing regret that j. B. Walton retires
from the business circles of Hobart.
The absence OF such as he will be felt,
but nowadays banking institutions
are looking for such men, and It Is
no surprise that he goes to one Of
Missouri's strongest bankinginstitu-
lions as its cashier. In the organ
cation OF modern commerce and In
dustry, the need for men with sound
business principles and judgment are
required, and nothing but the best
will do. 1t is being constantly EN-
phasized In the active transaction OF
daily business, that the welfare OF
trade depends, In large measure,
upon entrusting the affairs OF the
monied institutions to the hands OF
those who contribute both ability
and confidence.
1t is, indeed, compliment to our
fellow townsman who has thus been
honored with the active management
OF an institution which carries aver
age resources OF an amount closely
approaching an half million dollars.
This is q large responsibility on
young shoulders, but ] B. Walton
will make good In every sense. He
is accustomed TO big transactions.
His loan business has widened hisex
perience along this line. he has met
annually In the Eastern markets
those who represent millions, and
the handling OF money and tie iudg
Ing of men have become to him sec
ond nature While Mr.. Walton has
the confidence OF those OF his home

connection that the bank is to be
congratulated, also, upon securing
bis services. Before taking charge

James B. Parker, the negro who
struck the anarchist, Czolgosz, as be
fired at President Mckinley as Bui-
islo, \. Y, died recently In an insane
ward In a Philadelphia hospital. Is
lie said Parker never claimed any
credit for bis act, but expressed u
satisfaction that Is fell TO she lot OF
a negro TO try TO save the life OF the
President. He vent insane about "a
year ago. He was stalwsrsspecime n

tall and vas a native OF Georgia.
A. ". Shay. living near Cortland,
killed two white brsnts Tuesday

and his boy had started down
through his pasture and took the
gun along, thinking they might get
some snipe shooting. Ii was aioggy
morning and big flight OF brsnts
came directly over him, quite low
down. MIR. Shay says he had one OF,
these new tangled repeater guns, with
which he was unfamiliar, aud after
his first shot which brought down
two, while he was trying TO operate
IL from the double barrel way, the
balance OF the brants escaped.
A hall breed Indian horse trader
induced Miss Boots, an ElDorado
girl to elope with him. The father
OF the girl followed them to Nevada
and secured the cooperation of the
sheriff's force, the couple was run
down near that city sleeping In a
wagon. They were returned TO
Nevada and locked up, when the old
man concluded that the best way out
OF the dilems was for them to get
married, which was accordingly done.
The groom is one OF Uncle Sans
pensioners, and the old man Boots
said he was "dinged good boss trad.
err" and probably the old man knew
from experience.
Parties from Adrian inform us
that a number OF families who had
children seriously injured In the re.
cent common school house boiler ex-
plosion, and those who had children
killed, feel that the school district
ought to pay the doctors bills and
funeral expenses, That appeared TO
be very reasonable demand. The
total amount claimed was In the
neighborhood OF $4,000. Instead
OF paying this amount out OF she
contingent fund OF the district, we
understand that neighbor took up
collection and raised the $400 90
In short time This procedure will
probably forestall one or more law
suits for damages.
