Probably one the heartiest laughs
which the duke of Connaught, now
governor general of Canada, ever en-
joys, says the Tattler, was that oc-
casioned by the remark of an Irish
peasant, who one day while the duke
was driving In Dublin with the Ouch
ess ran alongside the carriage and
kept up with it in an astonishing fash
ion. So persistent was the man In
his endeavors to keep pace with the
carriage that at length the duchess
had the vehicle stopped and asked the
man what he wanted. He said that
he was anxious to get good look at
their royal highnesses. The Ouch
ess was much battered and asked him
how he managed 20 keep up with
them "Oh," he said. -shure, haven'l

Mr.. o'v.y'. Aoou., roast.

ceive all that is coming to them.
Sunday Mac gave his annual corn
roast at his place here known ~
Orchard Grove and that II was sue
cess goes without saying. 1t was
ladies' day and Mac simply laid him.
self out to make the feast something
out OF the usual and he did.
There were guests present from La
Junta that delegation being chaper-
oned by Pat Bradish, Swink and sew
eral other places to the number Of
about fifty and when they were all
assembled 1t was one OF the jolliest
crowds that were ever gathered In
Oteru county. As host Mac is at
his best and he never allows q mo-
ment I, pass In which there Is not
something doing and Sunday was no
exception. Seldom has there ever
equal to that which mine host Mcvay
spread for his guests and the manner
In which both the solids and liquids
disappeared was mute testimony Of
the fact that there was all that
could be desired. We use the word
mute from the fact that foi a solid
hour everybodies' mouth and throat
was NO full that II was an utter
impossibility for them to speak but
after the feast there WAS talk
fest that fully made up for all lost
time.
In all II was one OF the most en-
joyable affairs OF the many that
Mac has given and the guests were
unanimous in their thanks for the
good time extended by mine host.
