Mesdamee Long and Murray opened their homes and .lawns to the young people of Rensselaer on Tuesday night, July 14, and their unbounded hospitality was enjoyed by a goodly number. At 6:30 a most bountiful supper was spread upon the lawns between the homes of the charming hostesses, at which were seated twenty-five couples, who did ample justice to the loads of eatables placed in tempting array before them. After the repast, canvass was stretched upon the lawns and dancing was indulged in under the light of the new moon, aided materially by the Japanese lanterns, with which the lawns were tastefully decorated. ’ Iced lemonade refreshed the weary; singing and merriment reigned supreme, and “joy was unconfined.” When at last the lads and lassies tore themselves reluctantly from the enchanting scene, each and every one voted it a most delightful affair, and to Mesdames Long and Murray the honors due such charming hostesses. Those present were: Misses— Messrs— Bertha Alter Fred Phillips Susie Parker Gus Phillips Pearl Ridgeway Ray Thompson (LaPorte) Hallie Flynn Blanche Brown V.

A MORTGAGED MAN,
Clevelan i Said <t<» Have Disparaged McKinley As n Debtor. It hardly seer s likely, as is reported, that President Cleveland would have spoken disparagingly cf Mr. McKinley’s presidential qualifications simply on the grpund that he was “a mortgaged man.” Not that Cleveland is too good or too kind-hearted to indulge even in low criticism of one who fills so large• a place in the estimation of the public as Mr. McKinley, but that even he must have sense enough to know that so silly and so spiteful a remark would only have the effect to emphasize the feeling which is now pretty generally entertained concerning his own littleness of heart and mind. It is readily admitted that Mr. Cleveland’s feeling toward "mortgaged men” generally are those of contempt, inspired by the reflection on his part that none but. men of . inferior ability or illy developed business sagacity need to be “mortgated,” and that he might possibly be so dull as to not realize that, since his lack of ordinary business sense has resulted in a blanket mortgage on the nation of which he is the head of $262,000,000, in talking disparagingly about “mortwurod tnon ” hA wua bAfoulina his. own
nest. All this is admitted, but it must be remembered that in addition to low* ering himself still further in the esteem of the people such remarks might hurt Wall street, since they are so broadly calculated to draw sympathy to Mr. McKinley as to suggest that as their object. Mr. McKinley is the intended tool of Wall street, and his partner, Mr. Cleveland, wouldn’t make remarks about him which might react to his hurt Clevelanddidn’t sav it.
