On Wednesday evening, the 5th,
in response to invitations, quite a
company Of young folks gathered
at Mr. and Mrs. David Keen's to
celebrate the twenty-fourth birth
day Of their son, Harry Keen, who,
not suspecting the event Of the
evening, was hastily preparing for
church. He greeted the ingather-
ing surprisers heartily, and soon
the secret was known. Miss Annie
Keen, his sister, was hostess for
the evening, and no pains were
spared to make the occasion a
pleasant one. At late hour, a
most tempting table Of refresh
ments awaited us-here we were
not equal to the occasion, since we
left the table still loaded with
cakes, confections. fruit, &c. All
expressed themselves delighted
with the evenings entertainment

/ countered in the confirmation of
the appointees in the executive
sessions, according to reports. The
original program of the Republi-
can majority to delay action on
the appointments was changed af-
ter the Governor had called all the
senators into a conference, prior to
the convening of the session. At
that time he informed them in
formally that Chancellor Harring-

SMYRNA SPORTSMEN IN THE
REGION OF FINE GAME

William M. Lewis and B. V. Wei
don had one of the most pleasur-
able trips last week of their lives.
They left for Sussex county the
first part of the week on cunning
excursion, passing on down
through Worcester county, Md, to
Chincoteague Island in Accomac
county, Va. They came back load
ed with game. They were cunning
three days and their spoils were,
78 partridges, 18 ducks and G
brandt. The latter were especially
abundant on the flats at Chinco-
league, the feeding grounds, and
say they saw a stretch of twenty
acres where the water was "aIive'
with them. The only "sink" in the
cunning grounds was in the pos
session of a New Yorker: Mr.. Wei
don says if he had had it he could
have readily killed 100 brandt. Su-
perintendent Mills and William
George Hill were also down there
last week and came home loaded
with game.

says his highest ambition is to
beat Horace Greeley at farming,
who it will be remembered had a
very varied experience. One of his

dried apples, but it proved dis
NAL failure. We shall be pleased
to report Mr.. Primrose whenever
in any of his crops he demonstrat-
es that he knows more about farm
ing than Horace Greeley.

Smyrna Creamery Association,

this creamery as had been repre-
sented, a model in all its appoint
mentS, but more expensive in all
its general fitting up than they
felt justified in plans for Smyrna
creamery. They however took in
the points of advantage and see
where they can have the same fa-
cilities at a much les cost of ex-
