OftS of tbf* fiMMkt charming and hap-1 W little surprises in the hlstoty of the Euterpean club was that of Thursday evening, planned and carried out, by Miss Rose Dunatnan. with the as.(stance of Mrs. J. C. Patterson, at whose home the affair was given, the surprise being a shower for two of the teachers of the city schools—the kisses Annette Johnson and Mary Miller, who will be brides of this spring. Upon arriving at the Patterson home there was apparently nothing to distinguish the evening from that of the regular club meeting. The lesson was on Verdi’s opera, Il Travatore, and was very nicely carried out under the direction of Miss Irene Sohirmeyer and Mrs. Fred Fruchte. After a study of the life of Verdi, the composer, and the reading of the four acts of the opera by the various members, musical selections from the opera were given. There were instrumental numbers by Misses Ruby Miller and Midge Smith, Mrs., Jesse Dailey and Mrs. Fred Fruchte, songs by a ladies* chorus, and a solo by Miss Marie Patterson. At the conclusion of the program came the surprise. Miss Dunathan moving to the dining room door, which had been kept closed during the entire evening, remarked that as the season had been unusually rainy, and so many of the ladles had come without umbrellas, they had taken the precaution to prepare an umbrella large enough to protect both the Misses Milter and Johnson from “the showers.” With these words the door was thrown open and there burst upon the astonished eyes of the guests of honor a most charming view. Myriad? of candles in their nests on the plate rails, side board and table gleamed brightly and the fragrance of' many flowers filled the air. The decorations were carried ent most charmingly in the dub colons—pink, white/ and green’, and the dub flower, the carnation. The sideboard was banked with plumosls team and pink carnations, among whkftt twinkled many candles. The matt •attractive print, however, and about which the most interest centered, was the table m the center of the roam, over which from the chandelier wkb 'suspended a large pink, white and ®reen Japanese umbrella. The ciMtndelier stem was twined with pink ribbons and greens, among which nottted the pink shaded electric lights. Under the umbrella was a bank of pink and white carnations, surrounded by many myste-rious-looking bandies, and all guarded by many lighted (tapers. Miss Dunathan then invited the company into the dining room tand the two honored ones, who were ao overcome with surprise, were seated at the table, and asked to explore the mysteries of the packages, fiodtaty therein gifts from each member ®f the club, for which they expressed tthetr thanks and apL predation with many little exclamations as each stew one came to view. After this pleasant part of the entertainment the company returned to the living rooms which were appropriate-, ly and attractively decorated with sweet pdas, bleeding beatto and verbenas, and an interesting ’little contest, entitled “stately courtship,” was’ enjoyed. This was a romance in which blanks ware (to be filled with the abbreviations off the names of states. The lundheon that followed was nicely served, carrying out further the color scheme (in the appointments and the menu. The refreshments were served loom the following menu: Charlotte nreae, strawberries, pink and green reeepffihm atlcks, salted almonds and hot ceooawith marsh- ( mallow. Pink carnations were given as lavors. The, occasion -villi be remembered by all as foappy one, but mingled with the extension of gooff wishes to the brides to (he, was much regret that the club will lose two of Its very best wofeena. Miss Johnson, has been teacher of English In the Decatur high school for several years and resigns to become the wife of a young physleiaa wbm Mho met during her college yeara. Miss Miller has also served » teacher 4n the city schools and will become tire wife of Melville Clem,, a hardware merchant of Monroeville. , Forty ladies enjoyed the party given Thursday afternoon at the P. G. Hooper homtf by Mrs. Hooper and Mrs. H. K. Alllscon for Mrs. W. H. Nachftrteb, who will be Jiere but a few weeks longer before going to her home in Michigan. The Hooper home took on a gala appearance for b* the occasion, great quantities of dogF wood blossoms, violets and other Wild flowers, combined with tulips, forming the pretty floral decorations. A most f novel feature nf tne entertainment was a pantomime performance In which each guest took part. Each was given a card containing a suggestive word or sentence, which she was required to act out or present by pantomime performance to the spectators In such away that they could I gudto what she was doing. The picking of cherries, the making ot an apple pie and other domestic scenes were presented in a most realistic way—that Is as far as the acting was 1

concerned—for not a word was the performer allowed to say. All were given cleverly and were declared to bo equal to any moving picture show models which they took ploasure in rivaling. Then came a little “ty party.” Cards with questions to be answered by words ending in “ty" Were given out and the honor in guessing the greatest number were conceded to Mrs. 3. C. White of Logansport. Mrs. P. B. Thomas contributed to the enjoyment of the affair by giving a number of songs. Out-of-town guests were Mrs. P. W. Smith of Richmond" gnd Mrs. J. C. White of Logansport. • "* •- Decatur people, who have heard Rev. Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman, the distinguished American evangelist, will be Interested In hearing of his engagement to Miss Mabel Moulton, the only daughter of Mrs. Ruth Moulton of Providence, R. I.

I4ttie Leona Hunslcker was six “happy years old” Thursday and to celebrate the event In a fitting way S surprise party was given for her'in the afternoon at the home of her parents, Mr., and Mrs. A. D. Hunslcker, 230 North Eighth street. Jollity reigned, games of all kind contributing to the fun, and at 5 O'clock a luncheon was served.

Pedro came first and,ten games were played 'beforethe winners could be picked. Miss Rose Colchin was presented with ai beautiful umbrella and Paul Miller, received a drees shirt. After this dancing took the place of the former amusement and until a late hour fifty couple enjoyed themselvosTerymuch.

After Bremerkamp had followed dowa tthe river and recovered his boat, which had been moored near the Schelman brtdge, he and Deputy’ Sheriff Green went to take note of the surroundings, .(thinking that the thieves might have rowed down to that point an dthe® taken the eggs overland to market Inquiry from persons residing In that vicinity show--04 that no one had noticed suspicious looking persons with eggs, and all search thereabouts failed to give any information that might teed to the apprehension of the thieves, had they passed that way.

i ihi« ii .mi. i iii uh i m Washington, May 14.—(SpecialDally Democrat) Representative Fordney of Michigan delivered his long-heralded speech tn reply so Senator address At the Indiana state republican convention. He had some difficulty getting started because of Interruptions. When he referred to “Indiana gentleman,** Champ Clark, ‘ the democratic leader, asked: “What is the name of the gentleman to whom you refer?’’ “Beveridge,” curtly replied Fordney. Asserting that Senate Beveridge’s given reason for voting against the tariff bill was frivolous, unfounded and in no way justified, Mr. Fordney declared the senator fpom Indiana has assaulted the republican party and held himself up to his constituents as a martyr/ representing himself to be the savior of his people, demanding justice from his party and not getting It and wishing to make people believe that to be saved they must go to him. Representative B’ordney took up Senator Beveridge’s tariff speech, Issue by issue, and delivered what he believed to be an answer to each of them. He quoted the senator as having said President Taft wanted free lumber. This Mr. Fordney denied in toto. Mr. Beveridge’s statement that the woolen schedule had remained the same more than forty years he also denied, saying it was changed by the Wilson bill with disastrous effects tex tile industry of the nation. “President Taft has taken the position that the adoption of the Payne law is the true test of republicanism. I agree with him. Senator Beveridge, on the other hand, takes the view held by-Mr. Bryan, whose views on the subject of protection to American Industries have mpre than once In general elections been overwhelmingly repudiated by the voters at the polls.” — o— WILL BOOST MANUFACTURING. Believed That Texas Has Great Future in That Line. San Antonio, Tex., May 14—(Special to Daily Democrat) — “A. Texas Manufacturing Association is being fotmed to advertise the raw products, minerals and general resources of the state, with the object in. view of making Texas the largest manufacturing state iin ’th® union,” says the representative nere of the Texas Commercial Secretaries' association.” Manu factoring in Texas has not kept pace with the extraordinary development of ®ur natural resources of cotton, wool, cattle, ■grain, fruits, vegetables, lunfber, minerals, natural gas, oil, etc., and the object of the association —which will be a part of our own wodk—"Wiirbe to place a great inflow of manufacturing to take care of the big immtgratiori to the southwest, and to get ready for the coming completion of the Panama Canal. “ffhe manufacturers of the east and north have had their eyes on this state for some .time, as combining the moat Ideal location for manufacturing in the country, and they believe it is now time to take advantage of the«ame, as is denoted by the many inqdlries along these lines from the middle west, north and east, and also from abroad.” If flt is true that “history repeats itself’ some great legal lights may be egpeqtefl from the students of the commercial department of the Decatur high school In charge of Professor J. C. Tritch, for the mock trial conducted Thursday and Friday afternoons was certainly one that brought 'to the surface some very good traits, that 'gire' promise of bearing fruit in the (future .field of attorneyship. The sce®e of the trial room at'the schoolhouse was like a miniature court- roan, with all the points carried out tn detail. Lawrence Biggs was the supposedly offending one, against whsun mock affidavit had been made by fltetective Frank Mills, charging him \with grand larceny. The indictment was drawn and the war«ant -issued fifisfiay by Prosecutiity Attorney Bruce Patterson; the necessary witnesses subpoenaed by Sheriiff Will Bowertt 'With Gregg NeptUne .as Dailiff; an Ohe jury venire Dy Jury Coinmissioaar Dorothy Walters, who was also appointed court report-! er. teist before aiming to trial change <of venue from Judge Fremont; Frislnger was taken, and Don Burke was appointed spectaO judge, before whom tho trial took piece. Thus all things were ready for the beginning Thursday afternoon, with Prosecutor Bruce Patterson and his assistant, Clem Stelgmeyer, attorneys for the state and Fred Meyers and Howard Wisehaupt, attorneys for the defense. The following witnesses were called and sworn in by Clerk Alma Kooken: For the state—Effie Patton, Homer Raudenbush, Lillie Teeple, Perth Crays; for the defense —Dessle Mann, Judge Frislnger. All evidence .was in by 2 (o’clock Thursday afternoon and. the case was set for argument at 1 o’clock Friday afternoon, at which time the brilliant pleas were made by the attorneys, concluding at 1:40 o’clock. The Jury was then In-

1 strutted by Special Judge Burk and retiring for , deliberation in twenty minutes returned a verdict of “guilty,” Judge Burk rendered judgment on the verdict at once, sentencing the prisoner to from tw6 to twenty-one years in the principal’s office, During the time the jury was deliberating, ’Attorney D. B. Erwin, president of the school board, gave an address to the members of the department The mock trial was certainly an interesting one, as well as instructive to I both those who participated therein and those who witnessed it, as exceptionally good work was done by all taking part Mpny visitors from the city were in attendance. r ; . —o —.—,— — Attorney F.

In view of the recent publication of Alexander Irvine’s book. “From the Bottom Up,” by Doubleday, Page & Company, James Creehnan's pen picture of him is of Interest: “It 1? only a short time since I saw Alexander Irvine —a former clergyman—in the pulpit of the Church of the Ascension, clad in a black college gown, his lean, shaven face and dark eyes shining with enthusiasm, as with a surpliced choir in the chancel behind him, he preached a sermon and then invited his hearers to go at once to the parish house and take part fn a socialist debate. Mr. Irvine te an extraordinary character. He is tall, thin,

has a face that reminds one of Thomas Jefferson, and is a proletarian of great power. He looked very stalwart, earnest and impressive as he i towered up in the pulpit under La- < Farge’s famous mural paintings of the Ascension. He had the gravity and i dignity of a monk, the pleading elo- ( quence and imagination of a poet, with just a touch of the thunderous street i orator. It was all very beautiful, very ’ elevating and full of sweet humility, I that sermon of his.” < *'n i -<t> — *, " Now is the accepted time to be on 1 the lookout for Halley’s comet now i visible in the eastern sky. A sclen- ' tific paper has this to say: < “So extraordinary are the events of this occasion, probably never to be 1 repeated in a lite time or much long- ’ er, that for all lovers of nature the usual sleep schedule ought now to be rigidly set aside. Early in the morning of May 17th, not later than daybreak, one ought to be looking low In* the east to see the huge comet ascending the sky In advance of the sun. Early In the morning of the 18th he should look yonder again to see the comet’s tail stretching from the east, while its head lingers below the horizon as if waiting for the sun. At 8 o’clock central time, on the evening of May 18th, he should reflect that the comet’s head is now transiting the sun’s face and that, if he were a little farther west, he might see a remarkable sight in that one phenomenon. Late in the evening of the 18th and on till daylight he should be watching for the comet’s tail in the sky and try to realize how he and all mankind are now buried hundreds of thousands of miles deep therein. Soon after sunset in the early evening of the 19th, he should look again and see the comet, the comet’s tail streaking eastward; and early in the evening of the 20th he should look again and see the comet at its very best. Surely it is a cause for devout thankfulness to have been spared to witness this marvelous display of divine power and glory.” i -„'i i» «■ .i ii— Qu — Cleveland, Ohio, May 14—(Special to Daily. Democrat)—The Cleveland Press today prints the following from a staff correspondent: “Washington, D. C., May 14 —The two circumstances surrounding the preparation of the clean bill of health which President Taft gave Secretary Ballenger in Taft’s famous letter dated September 13th, Is now public. For weeks the attorneys prosecuting the Ballinger Inquiry have more than suspected that Taft .had very tew facts before him when he exonorated Ballinger s and as president assured the American people that ‘I have examined the whole record most carefully and have , reached a definite conclusion.’ Howl ever, until the last few-days the prog- , ecution had not even guessed the , amazing truth that Taft’s statement , of* exohoration was prepared by Os- ■ car Lawlor, law officer of" the interior department In colaboration with Bal- ■ linger. Having written their own ac- ■ qulttal, they presented the document -for presidential signature.” I Thus was Ballinger exonorated, i. Thus was Glavis, conscientious subordinate, who out of sense of duty apt prised the president, fired from public i service. . —o SOME LODGE NOTES. 1 * Hon. James Moran Visits Local Lodge of Elka.
