The masquerade given by Mr.. and
Mrs. Ray Wilson under the auspices oil
the Maple City club at the club rooms
last Thursday evening was attended by
a goodly number of unknowns. The cos.

unique and kept the spectators guess
ing One female of large and angular
build proved when unmasked to be the
? genial landlord of the Dyckman house,
much so the surprise of all. Three
misses in regular ball room attire came
as tripiets. They wore gowns of the
daintiest baby pink, cut low with short
sleeves that exposed plump and dimpled
arms, white as a!abaster,and wore dain-
ty shoes of white. We understand that
Vern Decker was one OF the trio and
was easily "the bell of the ball." 1t

ted a nice little sum for the club.
A p. Northrup of Lawrence was a
caller at The True Northerner Office last
Monday He had in his possession a
copy of the New York Herald dated
April 10, 1865. 1t gave the account OF
the assassination of President Lincoln,
also gave the death OF Seward and many
other items OF interest to the people at
that time. 1t certainly was an old doc.
ument of much interest and we'll worth
preservation.
Talk about your automobiles, the
"Speese Can" is certainly some car. Ia

tistic model of 1915. For more definite
