Another sunday At The Crescent.

Messrs. Jim Murty, Henry German and W. L. Barker went down to the Crescent Club Saturday afternoon, and spent Sunday at that hospitable resort.
 A pair of hay burners attached to barouche was used for transpOrta- tion, and record breaking trip was made. All previous eating records at the club house were smashed into little bits. Saturday night at supper Jim Murty and Henry German tieing the score on fifteen fish, four pones Of corn bread and unlimited coffee, the newspaper man proving an also ran
 Sunday at breakfast and dinner the record remained tied, and the party left the table at each meal, with longing looks of regret at the good things Aunt Elinor," the culi- nary artist, who presides over the Crescent kitchen, had spread for the regalement of the inner man. Satur- day evening until bedtime was spent in reading and a musical program rendered on the Nictrola, and the party went to sleep to the sweet, classical strains Of Steamboat Bill, f and arose to the same sweet strains The party was on the lake by day light Sunday morning, and found the wind most too high for good fishing, but managed to catch several nice speckled perch be fore the welcome sound of the breakfast bell recalled them to the house. And by the way, after eating meal at this resort, the visitor is always anxious to hear that bell Jim Murty caught the biggest 1 fish of the season to date out of Old Rivera six pound trout, which he landed Sunday morning, and as a consequence his head swelled so that he couldn't wear his hat the balance of the day German and Buck man. aged to catch nice string of speckled perch and brim. and had several ex- citing tussles with gars.
 The newspaperman got a little tangled on his geography or sense of direction Saturday night, and was at a doubt as to where the sun rose. The other two tried to tell, but each one had a different spot picked out, and the discussion was settled by vot- Ing to leave 1t until morning when obserya tions could be taken. But the morning was cloudy, and the matter hasn't been settled yet.
 This article would not be complete l unless we mentioned Aunt Elinor, who presides in the kitchen, and feeds the hungry mortals who visit the club house Aunt Elinor is an artist when it comes to cooking, and the meals sine puts up makes one wish for the stomach capacity and appetite of Sam Hodges and Cannon Ball 1 Lewis com bined. And one of her meals alone is enough to make trip to the resort worth while, whether or not you catch any fish.

HOLIDAY FAMILY

In the death of Mr.. Stephen Hol-

Oldest citizens. l noticed in your
account of him published in Sat
urday's News a slight mistake in his
parentage, and would like to have
little of your valued space to correct
it. :. s
The Holidays were wealthy peo-
pie in England, and early sent a
branch to the colony of Virginia.
There they have behaved themselves
with dignity and ability, furnishing
soldiers and statesmen, and good
citizens in the humber walks Of life.
They have scattered from the Old
Dominion to every part of the South
and West.
Kentucky received several branch
es of this family and wherever have
found them they are good citizens,
thrifty and well behaved. 1t was a
Kentucky Holiday, moved out West,
whom Mark Twain mentions in his
description of the Holy Land. He
