A delightful social evening culminat
ed the activities of the w. s, s. G, for
this year ON Monday evening. About
20 members together with their hus-
bands and other invited guests enjoyed

and spacious home of the retiring presi
dent, Mrs. a. j. Richardson. The rooms
were decorated with pink and white
blooms. There were many bowls of
beautiful and perfect roses developed
in spite Of our cold rainy spring wealth
er. Carnations, white and pink and
family tinted iris blossoms made the
home very pretty.
A program of guessing games and
dramatic stunts furnished great deal
of merriment. The guests found part.

ments. A dainty lunch was served in
the dining room consisting of ice cream,
cookies and coffee. Many of the guests
tarried until rather a late hour enjoy
ing various games Of cards.
The opinion of the club and club
work was solicited from the husbands.
Some responded in very able manner
and from all remarks we were able to
conclude that hubby was an enthusias
tic as long as one of these social good
times was at the end of each year.
The evening was one very much en-

referee, John Gary, announced the
rules of the contest to the two teams;

the storm period the danger to the
fruit crop for 1916 in this section win
be practically over Fruit prospects
in this section of the Willamette var
ley are exceptionally good. Prunes
and cherries promise full crop and
these are the two great staples Of
Polk county The prospects for ap-
pies and pears is also good as wen
as for the smaller fruits and berries.
The English walnut is also crop
that will soon figure in the market ro-
ports. Just at present all the oy-
chards Of this nut in this vicinity arc
young, and they are slow in develop

that will begin to bear in few years.

CONSIDER new JUSTICE
Wilson May Name Successor te
Hughes Within Two Weeks.

Washington, June 12.-Selection of
a successor to Charles E. Hughes on
the supreme court already is being
considered by President Wilson. This ap-
pointment may be made within the
next two weeks. Although the SUI
preme court adjourns today until Oc-
tober, department of justice officials
are anxious that a new justice be ap-
pointed quickly so that he can give
consideration during the summer
months to cases now pending.
This is considered almost imperative
in view of the fact that Justice Nc
Reynolds is barred from participation
in consideration of several of the most
important cases because he took part
in presenting them to the court as at
torney general. 1t is understood the
president would like to appoint J. w.
Davis, solicitor general, but is de-
tered from doing so because Mr.. Da-
Wis prepared a number of cases now
pending for the department of justice
Several messages urging the appoint
ment of former President Taft have
been received. but the president is ex-
pected to name a Democrat. since the
court now has five Republicans and
three Democrats.

SHE LOSES HER BABIES
Mrs. Poppleton Is Deprived of Her Re-
manning Children by the Court.

Judge A. W. Dana today upheld the
probate court and in SO doing held that
Mrs. Mary Poppleton is not a proper
person to have the custody of her twin
girls, now four years old.
The two girls are now in the Topeka
Orphans home They were taken from
her by Hugh Mcfarland, judge of the
probate court, after it had been shown
in court that they were neglected by
their mother.
Testimony was produced today to
show that the children were dirty and
neglected and that their home was
a filthy place; also that Mrs. Popple-
ton consorted with Charles Estes, a
fugitive from justice.
The husband of Mrs. Poppleton died
about four years ago when the twins
were only a few days old. He had
been an invalid from paralysis for
eighteen months before his death
There were two other children-both
boys. The boys were taken from the
mother months ago. The mother and
the two girls were sent to a home
at Council Bluffs by Hugh MacFar-
land and Ed Rooney, when the latter
was probation officer, but the mother
did not agree with the management
and she brought the two babies back
to Topeka.

the quarters of the state board of
