A Pleasant Surprise.

Dec. 23th, 1905 the pleasant home of Rocert McClarnon was one of hustle preparing for the celebration of the birthday of his wife Martha.

Robert and his daughter Jay planned the surprise which was perfect in every detail. At the hour of seven p. m. the rooms were filled with a jolly crowd of friends and neighbors inpatiently awaiting the arrival of their, victim, who soon entered from the rear of the house accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Jassettwith whom she had spent the day little thinking of what was going on at home

As soon as they reached the sitting room the merry makers rushed from their hiding places, the darkened parlor and bed rooms, to greet Martha with words of cheer, receiving (after her nerves were quieted) the welcome which one always receives at this beautiful country home. After this the crowd was escorted to the lighted parlor where they were entertained with some excellent piano music furnished by Mr, Jessie Warrum and Miss Gay McClarnon. The hostess was assisted by Mrs Lillian Jessett and Mrs. Daisy Day in preparing to serve a two course supper to the guests present, which numbered forty-three.

After supper young and old partook in the performance of some ©Id fashioned games which created great mirth and amusement for all present,

N O E O E S O N E N A N TRAVELER. Few newspapers in the United States are able to command the services of as brilliant a corps of correspondents as that of the a go or a I choice of a correspondent is indicative of The Record-Herald's policy obtaining the best there is to be had. Walter Wellman, the well known author on political subjects and one of the ablest writers of the day, acts in that capacity. VXV

Mr. Wellman was born in Mentor, Ohio, Nov. 3, 1851 At the age of 14 he began his newspaper experience

at that age a weekly paper in

the little town of Sutton, Neb. cre(j

In 1878 he returded to Ohio a year later established

and the

Cincinnati Evening Post. In 1884 he became the Washington correspondent of the Chicago Herald and in 1892 he visited Central America and the West Indies and located the landing place of Columbus on Watling's (San Salvador) Island, and marked the spot with a huge stone monument, Mr. Wellman's dashes for the north pole are well known. In 1894 he made the first of his two Arctic voyages of exploration, reaching the latitude of 81 degrees northeast of Spitzbergen. In 1898 he returned to the North, penetrated to Franz Josef Land, returning again to this country in 1899. On each trip he met with wonderful success in the discovery of new islands and lands, and brought back with him scientific data and information of great value to the American Geographical Society.
