The case of Martin vs. Stout,
which is of considerable local
interest, has recently been deci..
cided by the Supreme Court Of
Iowa, reducing the amount of
the judgment against Mr.. Stout
to 5000 SO. The District Court
held that in the accounting be-
tween Messrs Martin & Stout,
who were in partnership in the
real estate business here some
years ago, Mr.. Martin was enti-
tied to $l149.86 from his part
ner, Mr.. Stout. On appeal to
the Supreme Court, the Court
held that the District Court was
in error in not allowing Stout a
credit of $94O. 90 for a commits
sion collected by Mr.. Martin
and which he had failed to ac-
count for to his partner and re-
|duced the amount Of the judge

Improvement League,


The regular meeting Of the
Improvement League was held.
yesterday afternoon, at the X.
P. hall, with a good number of
the Ladies in attendance.
The regular routine of business
was transacted, and thirty-five
new members added to the roll,
which is very encouraging to
all, and we hope to see the good
work go on. 1t was proposed by
several of the Ladies that we
have a Social of some kind in
the near future, which we think
would be of great benefit to the
new Library fund, and also to
all friends vino attend. The
time for such Social was not
decided upon, but we want each
one who feels an interest in the
League, and especially all new
members who feel an interest in
our new Library, to come and
have a good time. and help on a
good cause, while boosting"
for the new Library.

Dinner Party.

Another very delightful din
ner party occurred last
evening, when Mr.and Mrs. R.C
Hills were entertainers at their
pleasant home on Seventh St.
The guests were invited for
six o'clock dinner and after
spending a short time visiting,
the hostess asked them into the
dining room, where they were
seated at one table. A ham
mered brass candelabra contain
ing lighted red candles, placed
on a large battenburg dolly ov-
er red, furnished the pretty
centerpiece and the color idea
was very artistically carried
out through the entire courses
of the dinner. Mrs. Hills ser.
we'd the. elegant dinner in five
course and the jolity and fun
which. prevailed all went to
show that every one was en-
|joying themselves to the utter
most. After dinner had been
partaken of, the hours were
spent in playing whist until
midnight, after which another
unusually pleasant social sffair
was a thing of the past. The
invited guests were:
Mr.. and Mrs. T. Foss, Mr.and
F. A. Sims, Mr.. and Mrs. P. e.
Robinson, Messers. A. H. Rock.

On Monday evening was
witnessed one of the largest
surprise parties in the west
part of town. About 1880 a
crowd gathered at Mrs. Brink
er's about 20 in number. We
left for the home of Mrs. Jen-
ME Walton. When the Walton
home was erected the carpent-
ers left three openings for enter
ance and as we were aware of
the fact we divided into three
punches and entered the three
doors at the same time, which
surprised the hostess so much,
that she was speeches.. After
the wraps were gathered the G.
Of H. of the D. of H. presented
the hostess with a beautiful
hand painted vase in behalf of
its members as a token of ap-
probation for her faithful SER
vices as an officer. She has
been an officer for seven years,
and missed one meeting, this is
hard to beat. Four different
orders were represented, which
proves that the hostess is a
worker in fraternalisll. Games
of all descriptions and music
were INDUCED in until a bounti
full three course supper was
spread for 83 persons, several
who came in later. One reason
we call this an interesting sur
prise is that we had the honor
of having two of the newly ell
ected city officials with us, but
of course as the crowd were all
good humored they could not
show their ability, so everybody
enjoyed themselves. At an
early hour we departed for our
homes thanking the hostess for
her mode of entertaining and
wishing to have the chance to
repeat the same sometime in
near future.

Dinner Party

One of the most beautiful APP
pointed and attractive Dinner
parties given in this city in a
long time occurred last even

Brown McGavren wedding par
ty at seven o'clock dinner, at

were used in the decorations Of
the rooms. The dining room
presented a very attractive ap-
pearance in decorations of
red and effective color idea was
developed in red American
beauty roses artisticatlv ar
ranged, and the little favors
were baskets adorned with lit
tie red rosebuds. The name
cards were decorated with Gu
pids and were very suggestive
of the coming event. The
color scheme was further car
ried out in the lighted candles
with shades of red. A very
elaborate five course dinner
was served, which everyone en-
joyed along with the spirit of
lnformality which prevailed.
At the close of the dinner, TIE
guests drank grape juice, to
the health and best wishes of
Lottie and Adm. A flash light
picture was taken of the group
while at the table, which will
be a good reminder in the flu
ture years, of an unusually de-
lightful social affair. Each
