mos, finch and parchesi of which Miss
Emma Howard carried off the head
prize, and the BOBBY prize being q tie,
was won by Sophia Hanson and Geo.
Traver. About the most fun of all was
going to the SHOW" for everyone
there. even Aggie Randall included,
notwithstanding her many disappoint-
ments in getting admitted. The sup
per was served at cute little tete-a-
tete tables and such a dainty repast;
three kinds of cake, two kinds Of
sandwiches, two kinds Of pickles and
such delicious cocoa. The walters
were Emma Hanson, Miss Padour, Mrs.
Bailey and Harry Randall all wearing
little caps made from artistic paper
napkins.4 There was acomplete change

party were driven t. their respective
homes in town by Miss Padour, ac-
companied by Effie Myers. Some of
the number appeared to have plenty of
room but four or:five in the rear end
of the conveyance were badly crowded
which resulted in a slight quarrel that
was finally settled by two of the little
boys exchanging places. Occasionally
the team was stopped to pick up part
of some young lady's finery, but all
reached home at last, one and all
agreeing that Mr.. and Mrs. Bailey and
Miss Pa6onr excelled in the beautiful
art of entertaining.

Philadelphia.-Hen Schmidt OF
Camden, y. j., who serves as bar
tender in a saloon at Race street and
Delaware avenue. this city, called on
Chief Deputy Coroner Sellers to in
form him that he is not dead and did
not commit suicide two years ago by
jumping into the Delaware river, as
the police records aver.
At that time, when body was TAX
en- from the river, resembling that or
Schmidt. his wife, Bessie, William
Ganter, Matthias Schwab and John
Gunther testified before the coroner
that the dead man was Schmidt and
a verdict of suicide was returned and
the matter closed. 1t is said the wire
collected $500 insurance for her hus-
bands death
Schmidt was indignant and wished
to have it arranged that he be de-
clared alive officially. Sellers told
him that the four witnesses, who
identified the dead body must ap-
pear and admit they made a mistake
and now Schmidt is worried for fear
he will not be able to bring this about.
He said he dropped out of sight be-
cause he was afraid his wife would
have him confined to an asylum.
Mrs. Nellie Cunningham of Camden
declares the man found dead two
years ago was hef rather. George Gre
| gson, and she wants to prove this in
order that she may collect $500 in
surance.
