brief but interesting and appropriate
program was carried out. Such patriotic
and stirring old songs as Hail Colum,
bia, " "Star Spangled Banner" "Ameri-
ca" and even yankee Doodle" were
leadership of Misses Wylie, Fraser and
DeTilla, assisted by the juvenile choir
of the Congregational church. The
Declaration oflndependenCe of was read by
Mr.. H. T. Mann, after short but force
full introduction. During the entire
afternoon the ladies of the Sunshine So
ciety dispensed ice cream from the gaily
decorated cottage belonging to Mrs. E.
a. Brush, and generously rendered by
her for the occasion. Later in the eve
ming the young people had their "iningS"

 This commissioner goes to Mana qua at the direct request of Acting President Estrada, submitted through Senor Castrillo Broadly speaking, he is to assist in arranging the financial affairs in Nicaragua Primarily, he is invited by Estrada to negotiate for a settlement of the Cannon and Groce and other American claims, and it is intimated he may assist in floating a loan which will enable the Nicaraguan government to settle with its credit ors
