A number of Mr. and Mr-. Michael Zick’s friends, of Walker township, gave them a surprise last Saturday, the occasion b* - ing Mr. Zick’s 60th birthday. Their family were all present - two sons and three daughters— Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Warren. Mr. and Mrs. Bruce White, of Rensselaer, and Mr. and Mrs. M. W. Dumond, of Atwood. Kan., and a number of relatives from Laporte county. A very enjoyable time was had by all present. Some weeks ago Gov. Matthews issued a proclamation ar - nouncing August 22nd as Indiana day at the World’s Fair. This was done owing to the fair, that when the Indiana building was dedicated June 15th neither Gen. Harrison, Gen. Lew Wa - lace nor Janies Whitcomb Riley had been invited to participate. They were invited to appear August 22nd, but each pleaded other engagements and the stale commission met aud declared the celebration off. The latest and greatest of all wonders, a troupe of performing monkeys, are now presented to the public for the first time by Cook & Whitby, with the assurance that theearth cannot produce their equal. They are a study for the paturalist, a theme of thought for the philosopher, a source of pleasure for the people, a wonder for the children, a subject of surprise for everybody—they do all that man can do.
