Birthday Party.

Monday last, February 90. was the
5sth birthday, of r. c. Benton, of
this city.
In honor of the occasion. he called
i'm his Bible school class of boys, and
Mrs. Benton, assisted by Mrs. Harris
and daughter, Hattie, and Mrs. Earl
Benton entertained them at O'Clock
dinner i'm three courses. The boys en-
tered into the spirit of the occasion
and enjoyed themselves hugely, and it
is needless to add that Mr.. Benton
was close second.
About 9 O'Clock p. m. Mr.. Frank
Kieffer and his son, Wylie. came over,
and the way they made that piano
and violin talk was caution. 1t was
almost too much for ''R. c." and
something got the matter with his
feet like they used to get in his
younger days. They would not stay
still and Mrs. B. had to caution him.
At reasonable hour all took their
departure for their various homes,
declaring they had had one of the
best times of their lives, and wishing
Mr.. Benton many happy returns of
the occasion.
