Flat Rate Bill Recommended.

The first attempt at emasculation OF
tax measures came yesterday afternoon
when the ways and means committee re-
ported adversely on the Babbitt bill to
exempt money loaned in Vermont on
real estate at five per cent. The ways
and means committee has presented a
! bill which lays a fat rate of seven
! tenths of one per cent. on a dollar of
/ the grand list and allows offsets not TO
exceed 81 500. 1t is known that the add
vocates of offsets had to fight to secure
that cause in the bill. There seems but
little hope for the Babbitt bill in the
House.
The following is an abstract of II. 374,
the fat rate bill; Personal property is
to be set in the abstract of individuals
on the first day of April at one per cent.

Mr. and Mrs. T.. M. Phillips again demonstrated their ability as enter tainers yesterday, when they had as their guests forty ladies and gentle men from this city for a day in the country" at their plantatso on home near Altheimer. The affair was in the bers of the Hawthorne Book Club, but he guest list was not limited to the Club membership. The party went to Altheimer on the early morning train and on their arrival there were met at the station by vehicles, which soon tCok them to the comfortable Phil lips residence. It was beautifully decorated with the fall flowers and tiae Halloween idea was displayed in the interior decorations of the rooms and halls and at noon a de- iicious course luncheon was served on small tables, distributed about the house.
 The day was amusingly and inter- estingly spent with contests and novel entertainment features, including a Halloween grab bag, from which every guest took a grab and re- ceived a token of appreciation of his appearance. The grab bag was done in ehe Halloween colors, black and yellow. A doughtnut contest fur nished much amusement among the ladies and an apple-biting contest was equally enjoyed among the gen. t.emen. Doughtnuts' were hung from the ceiling and the lady who ate her dougntnut first received the prize. It was captured by Miss Powel, of Alt heimer, and was beautiful work bag. N. A. Waldron bit an apple before any of his competitors and re- ceived a pair of bright red socks. In the toe of one of them was a beauti- full knife. In the hidden article con- test. when each guest was given an opportunity to name the article se- creted about the house, Miss Mary .Geistsiter was successful. She re- ceieved beautiful pillow. Mrs. M. w. Bell was voted the most, popular lady present and received dainty pearl pin. Jo Nichol proved himself the best "bender" among the gen. tlemen and when he touched the floor with the tips of his fingers without bending his knees he received a use- full prizes. The guests were royalty entertained throughout the day and although they were caught in the rain while returning to the station in the afternoon, they declare the affair was one of the most enjoyable they had at- tended for many months.

Halloween Bunking Party,

One of the most delightful of the many social affairs held last night was that given at the home of Misses Ethel and Ava Viets on State street last evening. The invitations were very unique and all who received one responded. The spacious home was almost transformed into a forest by the decorations of autumn leaves and flowers and every corner in each of the rooms was leafy dell in itself, abounding in black cats, grotesque pumpkins and weird figures, all of which enhanced the mysterlousness of the occasion
 After the young ladies had as- sembled they departed for the picture show, each carrying black cat and a tin horn. After a joyful half hour at the Orpheo they partook of de- licious refreshments at Rosenberg's and then returned home. A ghost and witch were awaiting them and after fortune telling which provok- ed much amusement luncheon was served. The young ladies sat in a circle and the witch served delicious salads. sandwiches and punch, getting these delicacies from huge pumpkins. Games and music completed the af- fair which was one of much enjoy ment.
 In the sleeping room were the eight hunks and at late hour all were occupied with the occupants sleeping soundly and dreaming of witches and cats. Those present were Misses Millie Rue, Pearl billion, Rue and Era Gartman, Annie Mous- tache, Myrtle Tolson, Ava and Ethel Viets. Mrs Culpepper and Mrs. Hen- derson assisted Mrs. Viets in enter taining.

Halloween Party.

Mrs. Ferdinand Baer and Mrs. Hen- ry Marx entertained the younger so- ciety set with Halloween party at the home of the latter last evening. The guests cOngregated at the home of Mrs. Baer and were conducted to the Marx house, next adjoining, by ghostly guides to the accompaniment of mournful music. Both houses were darkened and with the wind coming in fitful gusts the trip from one house to the other was an eerie one.
 The Marx home; where the guests were received by ghosts and. goblins, was tastefully decorated with " cut flowers and palms, the only illumina- tion being that of candles and pumpl kin heads. The Halloween idea pre- dominated in the decorations.
 The guests seated in circle. on the floor told progressive ghost stories. 1. fortune teller gave. additional thrills and Rabbi Joseph Jasin's clever imitation of the Wonderful Belzar" was hailed with delight. Music and games also furnished amusement and the latter part of the evening was given over to dancing.
 One of the features of the eve- n!ng's entertainment was the unique manner in which the luncheon was served. From big kettle in a cor ner of the room mysterious packages were taken and auctioned by Harold Bluthenthal. These contained a delectable Dutch" lunch.
 MT. and Mrs. Sam Levi, MT. and Mrs Cahrles Levi and Mrs Addie Silbernagle assisted in entertaining.

On account of the absence OF
numbers OF our people in attend
ance at the Rose Carnival, il was
decided not to have a meeting OF
the Commercial club which would
otherwise have taken place on We'd

occur the coming week. Several
important matters will come up be-
fore the meeting for consideration
especially reports relative to the
coming Sweet Pea Show, Regatta
and Industrial Exhibition. Every
thing is reported to be progressing
favorably 1t is expected to have
the principal streets appropriately
decorated as also the city dock, and
doubtless St. Johns will appear IN

that everything is very promising

St. Johns in a few days to con-
fer in regard to completing arrange
ments. The railway companies
have been waited on by the Trans

having arranged all necessary facil-
ities for conveying the people here
1t is we'll at this time for our peo'
pie to commence to think about the
matter of decorating. Out OF the
general fund the main streets will
be decorated, but individuals will
be expected to decorate their own
business places and homes. There
is not a great deal of time left, and
il is we'll enough to start and get
busy in preparing for the coming
event,
