of the two adult Bible classes of the
church. Covers were laid for one

we're only a few vacant places around
the festive board.
Prof. T. A. Hendricks, teacher of
the mems class, acted as POSTMASTER,
and was very clever xn his remarks as
he introduced the various speakers,
who responded to tne tOasts. The
speakers sparkled WIN wit and were
entertaining in the highest degree.
The musical numbers were beautiful
and ELECTED much applause. Miss
Clara Belle ONeal presided at the pi-
ano. One of the most enjoyable feat
ures of the evening was the recitation
of Miss Patsy Clark, entitled ga Prin-
cess" and was given by Miss Clark in
very graceful manner. The pro-
gram follows:
Piano Selection-Miss O'Neal.

In naval circles at Washington the

mand the Atlantic fleet on its passage
through the Panama canal when the
great waterway is opened to the

hauled down his flag a few weeks ago
Rear Admiral Winslow was second in
command to Rear Admiral Badger,
commander in chief of the Atlantic
fleet. Early in the year Admiral Bad
ger is to retire, and gossip has it that
Winslow will succeed him.
Rear Admiral Winslow is very pop

born in Washington in 1854 and is the
nephew of the late Admiral John A.
Winslow, the famous commander of
the old Kearsarge when that ship sank
the Confederate cruiser Alabama Off
the French coast He is a graduate
of Annapolis of the class Of 1875 and
will arrive at the retiring age in 1916.
In 1898, in the Spanish war, Admiral,
then lieutenant, Winslow led the lit
tie party that cut the cables off Glen
fuegOs, Cuba, in order that the Span
ish forces might have no communica-
ton with Madrid. The cutting of the
cables was done in the face of ter
rife fire from the Spaniards on shore
and by many has been termed the
bravest act Of that war. For his serv-
ices on that occasion he was advanced
five numbers in grade. He was at
tached to the White House staff as
naval aid in the second Roosevelt ad-
ministration. Mrs. Winsow is a daugh-

HAVE ONE DAY ONLY.

The Southern Messenger has little
sympathy with the periodical efforts
of those "goody-goody" people who
would prohibit games and other in
nocent amusement on Sunday and
deprive men and women who are
busy all the rest Of the week of
opportunities for mental and bodily
recreation on the one day when they
can profit by them. Religious duties
should come first of course, but the
prohibition of things not evil in
themselves is quite alien to the real
spirit of Christianity and is calcu-
lated to make religion hateful in
the sight OF many. A striking
example of the amusement and
recreation afforded by a right OBJ
servance Of Sunday is furnished by
our Twin City Baseball League,
which provides entertainment for
thousands and keeps many from as
sociations that might prove dan
gerous.

morning. Few men in Louisville

sorrow and regret. Mr.. Shea had
been Ill for some time, but II was
not thought his end was so near. AS
a young man he made friends among
all classes. and the number in
creased with his years. In private
and public affairs he was an
earnest worker, his services as Secre-
tary of the Democratic Committee
being especially notable. While the
remains lay at the family home
there was a stream of callers night
and day to pay their tribute and ex-
tend sympathy TO the bereaved wife
and relatives. The funeral was held

church. Rev. Father Jansen officiat-
