The Buffet To Be Eliminated.

/ - :
It has been announced that the
buffet at the Elks Club has been
closed, on the advice of their attor-
ney after a conference during which
lit was made manifest that the buffet
was in violation of law. As the Elks
are good citizens they are indisposed
ito violate the law. The elimination
Iof the buffet should not impair the
social features of the club, but
should stimulate the greatest spirit
of cordiality. 1t has been demon
strated that neither wine, liquor nor
beer are necessary for enjoyment.
Pure cold water was the beverage of
the gods. There is no lurking foe In
pure cold water. The beverage
served at the banquet rendered the
State Press recently in convention
was pure cold water, which was
generally appreciated, especially by
the ladies present. Pure cold water
is the beverage of the Wilson's at the
White House. VIM. ]. Bryan is a
loyal and consistent advocate OF
pure water. Even Teddy is more
partial to water than any kind OF
stimulants, except when needed as
medicine.

WRIGHT'S TRIAL.
The Acused Was HOnOrably Dis
charged by Judge John r. Land.
Was Held for EmbeZzlemem.

On being tried Friday in the Dis
trict Court, A. 0. Wright was dis
charged by Judge John R. Land be-
fore all the witnesses in the case
had been heard The defendant had
been indicted by the Grand Jury for
embezzlement. The principal wit
ness against him was E. S. Cayce,
whose contention was that he had
advanced $3.50 in money to Wright,
who still owed him $1,000 as loan.
In opposition to this statement by
Cayce it was evidenced by checks
and receipts that Wright had liqui-
dated his indebtedness for whatever
lands and other transactions he and
Cayce had together, and there was
an excess paid by Wright to Cayce.
The evidence was so manifestly in
favor of Wright that when Hon.
John ID. Wilkinson, representing the
defendant, rose as if to address the
court, he was interrupted by Judge
Land, who said: 1.-The defendant is
not guilty and is ordered discharged.
The defendants testimony is abso-
lutely corroborated by documentary
proof, which is the best evidence"
The defendant A. O. Wright, is
the president of the Caddo Glass
Factory, and is held in the highest
esteem by his friends.

Hosts to Young Lady Friends at
Novel Entertainment.

Last evening one of the most de-
lghtful affairs OF the season was given
a. the I: NJ. {. A. when the Resident
Mem6eTs club invited about thirty
them royalty. The young ladies were
received in the auditorium and as thew
entered were greeted by several Of
tne young men and two young ladies,
MISS Emela Langraf and Miss Theresa
Rowland, who assisted in supplying
the guests with cards upon which were
blanks numbered for fifteen names on
each ana by means of exchanging
themselves. Later the cards were used
as w. G. Pixier, who was master OF
ceremonies for the evening, announced
the various stunts and partners were
tound Dy means of the numbers. To
assist in getting acquainted a period
or conversation was announced and
two minutes given to discuss given
subjects.
A short but decidedly entertaining
programme was one of the features
or the evening. Joe Golden of the
Grand Stock Company was introduced
ana IN a very clever manner told a
series of stories and gave impersona-
tions which kept the young people in
a gale OF laughter. Joe Brewer of
Duluth, who has recently accepted a
position in this city, also was a big
factor in making the evening a splen-
did success. Mr.. Brewer gave a num-
Der OF character sketches, including
Mutt and jeff, a s~uffragette, several
quick drawings and approximations of
members of the company, bringing
forth hearty applause from his audi
ence. A plano duet by Messrs. Black
and Neander called forth a demand for
an encore and two solos by Miss Fern
Crothers, Rose in the Bud by Forester
and A Dream by Bartlett, were very
much appreciated, the latter number
being especially beautiful. The stroll
ers quartette consisting of Messrs.
Goodwin, Varnson, Nelson and Neff,
sang Silent Night, which is always a
faVorite, very acceptably, and respond
ed to their moore with a clever trick
Clara Pollock was accompanist for
Miss Crothers and played for the grand
march which followed the programme
in the auditorium.
Physical Director Henderson head
ed the procession to the gymnasium,
through, Mrs. Goodwin playing the
march, and lead the way through the
building where the guests were shown
the swimming pool, bowling alleys, and
given opportunity to enjoy some of the
splendid equipments which the Y af-
ed with the entertainment which the
young men afforded them and especial
ly appreciated the opportunity of
learning to bowl, which sport is be-
coming a favorite with the ladies as
we'll as gentlemen.
Punch and delicious cookies, the lat
ter through the courtesy of the Man
chester Biscuit Co., were served in the
lobby. Much of the success of tho
evening was due to the splendid work
w. F. Neff, president. of the social com
mittee and G. e. Nelson, acting presi-
dent OF the club, and all report a
thoroughly enjoyed evening.
