MEDICAL MEN ENTERTAINED.
DIR. and Mrs. Keplinger Give Dining
in Honor of Resident Physicians

in Honor of Resident Physicians
DR.. and Mrs. Leonard Keplinger
gave most spurious six O'Clock
dinner at their handsome bungalow
on West Main street Friday evening
mplfmentary to the resident ply
sicians. This twelve course dinner,
SO perfect in all it's appointments
and details. is possibly the most
elaborate dining function ever given
in Waxahachie-town." Red was the
prevailing color scheme, used in the
decorations for this stag affair. Red
flutes and festoons of crepe paper
adorned the mantle, side board and
cabinet. Red crepe shades made soft
glows from the lights. Red doilies
for the plates and red cases for the
almonds, gave color to the long ia
BILE, in it's immaculate linen, shining
glass and china and glittering silver,
In the centre of the table was a
large mound of fern leaves, smilax
and red carnations. A cluster boquet
of fern leaves and red carnations
filled vase on the mantle. Instead
of the usual flower buttonaire,
each guest was labelled by Miss War
rem with miniature white skeletons,
tied with red ribbons. Dainty menu
cards, tied with red ribbons, were at
each plate, as souvenir of this
splendid occasion for each guest.
The cover of the menu card was des-
ignated as follows:
Menu.
There comes rosy health from
cottage of thatch, where never ply
stefan has lifted the latch. Smart.
Each proselite would vote his
doctor best, with absolute exclusion

THE CITY COURT.
Fined $15 for Violation of the
 Plumbing Ordinance.

rined %lo Tor Violation or tht'
 Plumbing Ordinance.
 In the city court to-day the case against Fred Eubeck for theft of a neighbours dog was again eontin- ued In prospect of Settlement.
 The bond of $500 for the appear ance of Charles W. O'Brien in court was forfeited, he having failed to respond when the case was called O'Brien's record shows that his real name is George McCartny, that his home Is in Naugatuck, and for some time was employed as fagman oft a train. He was charged with theft of two typewriter machines valued at $125 each, from train bound from Hartford on June 10. At Sandy Hook the theft was commit> ted and it is supposed that McCar- thy, alias O'Brien, had some assist ance in removing the machines from the car. There were in the lot seven machines altogether. One of the stolen two has been recovered from the party. O'Brien sold 1t for $20 Peter Bauby was his bondsman.
 About year ago Tony DeLuca, a tinsmith, did roofing job for Generaro Aldinsio at 63 West Por- ter street. He also obliged Aldin sio by changing the position of some sewer pipes, but it seems he should have obtained permission from the plumbing inspector to do this work. Aldinsio refused to pay his bill, s20. and DeLuca left town. A few days ago he returned and sent sheriff to Aldinsio to collect the bill, where upon Aldinsio sent word' to the au, thorities and DeLuca was arrested for violating the plumbing ordi- nance. He was fined SIS.
 The case against Frank Jacaruso and Angelo Marchetillo for shooting Cesare Tremaglio one Saturday night some weeks ago was settled for $25 in each case. The injured man was reluctant to prosecute, so Prosecu- tor Meigs decided it was as well to settle the cases.

Hanging

Means to suspend from, or to fur nish something suspended or fast ened to wall, etc. Yes, hanging means more than that. Nowadays you'll see whole lot of curbstone politicians standing around talking politics. Yes and get into very hot arguments, too. They are what are known as Hangers on and they say the Hangers on" are the very worst obstacle around election time. Yes, we've heard office seek CTS say they'd be hanged if they would pony up what was request ed and they were informed by the requester if they didn't do so and so he'd be hanged if he'd support him. And there you are. Hanging cuts a whole lot of ice in our every day doings. Now this week We will give a clothes drying rack with each pound of our warranted good soc Tea, and both are guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction. Remember the clothes after being ironed should be hanged" on rack for short while before being laid away ana our rack is the best hanger in the market. It closes up when not in use.

GET PROXIES FOR FISH.
Scarritt, Back From Europe, Says He
Was Successful.

NEW YORK, January 4.-Winthrop E.
Scarritt, who went abroad in November
to obtain proxies for Stuyvesant Fish in
his battle for the control of the Illinois
Central against e. II. Hartman, re-
turned yesterday by the Cunarder Lusi-
tania with the declaration that he had
obtained the right to vote for Mr.. Fish
about 80 per cent of the shares held in
Great Britain and in Holland. He said
that a campaign of lies had been inau-
gurated against Mr.. Fish and that he had
sent out circulars Immediately after, ar
irving in London that were instrumental
in helping him get the consent of the
shareholders to uphold the standpoint of
Mr.. Fish.
Mr.. Scarritt was on clutches, having
badly hurt his foot in a balloon accident
in England. He came down sooner than
the pilot of the balloon expected, after
lodging all sorts of architecture, and got
his foot entangled in a hamper of wine
just after the airship made her final
bump. splitting out all hands.

fairs thus far, but. his enemies seem to
&c closing. in on him. If the courts sus-
tain the demands of the Interstate COM
merce commission to insert the probe
legitimate curiosity to these re-
markable stock speculations may yet be
sratified. The willy financier has prob
ably protected himself against personal
losses resultant upon such inquiries by
the action he forced upon the stockholders
at the annual meeting in Utah, approving
of everything that he had done. His
management having thus been Endorsed
he may be able to snap his fingers at his
pursuers having in mind a campaign COM
polling him to disgorge profits personally
annexed from speculations with corpora
ton credits.
Mr.. Hartman is showing the strain to
which he has been subjected during the
last year. His temper, always vitriolic.
has become worse, if possible. and he is
more venomouS than ever in his rail-
inss against Mr.. Roosevelt. He has aged
considerably and his health is by no
means as robust as it was a year ago.
His absences from his Office on account
of ill-health are becoming more frequent
and those who come in personal contact
with him complain that he is getting
unbe arably savage. His isolation is grow
ing more patent as time advances, and
people who not long ago were friendly
and proud to be classed among his fol-
lowers are taking to cover. He is en-
ire rched officially for another year, but
if he is able to maintain his position
otherwise through 1908 it will be a great
surprise to the street.
