A Harvest Home Party.

In Sweden they make a ceremony of
bringing in the last sheaf of wheat
signfying that the summer is over
and the harvest ended" With this in
mind, hostess who is noted for her
originality issued invitations for a
Harvest Home" party at her place in
the country. 1t is now quite the thing
not to return to town until the first of
November, so the beautiful foliage
and tie glories of autumn are enjoyed
to the full. AT this party, which was
given last year, too late to get in the
department owing to the fact that ii
must be made up several weeks in ad
vance, the house and spacious YER
andas were literally covered with gor
geous oak and maple leaves, as was
the lower floor of the great barn
where dancing took place at eight
o'clock. The hours were from five to
ten, which just permitted the making
of trains to and from the city.
A novel feature was the playing OF
the band composed of the workmen on
the place. They were mostly Ger
its own foreman with helpers the or
ganization was quite complete as well
as unique. They played for the dan
cling, and to a most stirring march
they led the gay party to the last
sheaf of wheat in the field. 1t was
laid in the pony cart belonging to the
ten-year-old daughter of the house,
who drove the prettily decorated
pony into the barn, where the sheaf
was placed in the middle of the clean
ly swept floor and the hostess paid a
tribute to Ceres, health being drunk
in mulled cider made on the place and
served by the hostess. After a supper
of fried chicken, boiled ham, hot muf-
fins, rice and tomatoes cooked to-
gether with shrimp, which the colored
cook said was "Jumbalaya," tea, cof-
fee, Macedoine of vegetable, salad
and pumpkin pie, the dancing began
After a few informal dances there
was what the hostess called Farm
ers" cotillon, because all the figures
pertained to work on the farm, and
the favors consisted of big straw hats,
sunbonnets. whips, milking stools, tin
pals, spades rakes, hoes, etc. 1t was
all very original and pretty. Cider
frappe was on hand for the dancers.

and with the organization they had
this year the Democrats OF the city
had some hope of defeating the boss
who so long has dictated affairs to the
voters of all parties.
In Youngstown Democratic Mayor
Craver is elected by reduced plural
ity over Paul Jones, the former Mich
igan football player and Reserve
coach. Mayor Turnbull of Canton has
been carried back into Office by the
Democrats by a large plurality.
Dougherty, his opponent, conceded
Turnbulrs election.
Akron. O.-The early election re-
turns indicate the reelection of Mayor
w. r. Sawyer Dem.) by 1000. The
first ten precincts showed an average
gain of 20 to precinct for him over
two years ago, when City Solicitor C.
r. Berry, his opponent, was defeated
by 1,045.
Dayton, O.-The Democrats scored
a sweeping victory here, electing May
or Il. e. Burkhart and the entire tick
ct with the possible exception of the
clerk of the police court The Demo-
Gratis claim plurality of 5000 for
Burkhart, and the election of the city
council and municipal ticket.
Toledo O.-Brand Whitlock is re-
elected mayor of Toledo for a third
term. Early returns from the down
town precincts, where his adversary,
David T. Davies, was expected to be
strongest, showed such slight gains
that all hope of overcoming Whit
locks plurality of $500 in 1907 was
abandoned and both Republican or
gans acknowledged the election Of
Whitlock, but claim the rest of the
ticket. Whitlock probably will have
over 1000 plurality.
Cleveland, O.-Herman C. Baehr
was elected mayor of Cleveland. A
plurality of at least 5000, growing
with the later returns, seems to have
swept every Republican candidate in
with Baehr. Newton ID. Baker gave
his opponent the hardest fight of all,
and has probably been elected over
Dahl for city solicitor. The city council
will be overwhelmingly Republican,
with % members of that party and
seven Democrats for members.

The suggshness Of the demand may be at
tributed to the desire for more assured in
formation of the crop Outturn, the present
good promise from the grain crops being
liable to vicisstudes of the critical period to
be passed through in the next few weeks.
Cotton rose again under the influence OF
fears of harm to that crop.
The extremely cautions action Of the specu-
latton was we'll exemplided in the movement
of United States Steel. That stock advanced
easily to it's previous record level at 699s.
recession of 4 in the price seemed to put a
stop to the selling.
More gold was taken for Argentina. Money
continued easy here Chicago exchange stilI
ruled at a discount, and subtreasury opera
tions made requirement on the local
banks.
The fact that gold, nevertheless, continued
to go out is taken to imply a degree OF cur
rency imitation. Copper was marked down
at the New York Metal exchange today.
In London a bear covering movement was
given responsibility for a rise here in copper
securities The metal also rose in London.
Rumors of a Union Pacihc-Illinois Central deal
again benefited the latter stock, and Reading
