Thos- from a distance were: Capt. Jim McManoiny and wife, of Covington, Ind Mrs. Susanna Worman, Brookvjlle, Ohio MTG. Anna Kemp, Dayton, Ohio Miss Emma Gray, Rhodes, Iowa Mi6sCharlott Templeton, Virginii.
After dinner, which was of the best that kind hands could provide, there were speeches by Misses Ethel anil Nellie Gray, Uncle Ben Ristine and Uncle Saut and Capt. McManomy. One of the nicest features of the dinner was a tine cake made by Mrs. Benton Switzer, engraved on top in beautiful letters of red. ••June lii'lKlO. ".... .1. S. «raj\ 1MM."

Ben Gray, Waynetown's nervy constable, relates a remarkable incident illustrating the sagacity of wild ducks. While out in the woods, about one milo from town, he came across a bevy of the web footed tribe and by great agility was able to arrest one of them, which he carried homo. But the interesting part of the story is in the fact that about roosting time that night the remainder of the brood I.'i by actual count came paddling down the alley adjoining his resilience. Led by an instinct with which nature haB endowed them they were able to locate the absent member of the family. Ben arrested the entire party, and may start a niu6eum.
