Instead, after the game, tea with simple sandwiches and some sweets' are served, usually from the table charmingly set forth with tea things, soft lights and beautiful flowers. This is a much better plan than the more elaborate mentis which have usually accompanied this entertainment as dinner, coming so soon afterward, Is practically spoiled, or at leas't the "edge" is taken from one's appetite. Most women can enjoy good, fresh tea at any hour, and a simple sandwich does not cloy. The little cakes served now are really as much candy as. cake, for the outside is apt to be coating of sweet sugary stuff and the lnstde either bits of cake or some delicious fruit or marron.

In this day of classical study the old songs are often forgotten and yet

Music

to a large number of musicians the

old songs are ever new. An inter esting story is told about an old sweet song. At a cafe in New York amid gayity and music a table was laid for fourteen guests and early In the evening there came marching in fourteen stately, gray haired prim old dames, each wearing on her breast a small badge .of red. They did not live in Boston, that was plain, neither did they come from New York or Chicago. The orchestra had been playing the latest song hits when suddenly a great change came over the spirit of the scene. The clanging of the knives and forks ceased laughter died away as all listened to the unusual tune the orchestra was now playing. At last the players swung into the chorus and from the table where sat the old dames, there came that came that sweet old song, "Darling I am Growing Old, Silver Threads Among the Gold." How they did sing it. Applaus followed applaus. However the old ladies paid their bill each departing as she had come. They had taught a good lesson that once in a while It is well to lay aside the frivolous and the light for the sentimental and the serious. EASTER MUSIC. The choirs of the various churches are busy rehearsing their Easter programs. No doubt a number of excellent programs will be presented at this time. ifM J& S SONGS POPULAR. The songs of Alexander MacFadyen are becoming most popular. "Love Is the Wind" was sung by Corinne Rider-Kelsey at her Louisville recital. Jessie Bruce also sang it in Pittsburg last week.

T. P. A Notes BY T. C. H.

Did you get your invitation to the smoker? Next Saturday night the last regular meeting night of the old year. Come up. Election of officers will take place next Saturday night. A large crowd is expected to be on hand and the largest vote ever cast at a T. P. A. election is predicted. One of oar newly-weds goes home from the club rooms at ll:3o and when questioned by his wife as to the time of day or rather night, answers, "10i5O my dear." But wifie is wise and pulls the clock off the floor by the side of the bed. Result? Well, its hard to tell what was the result. Euchre games close early now, however. Fred Smith, who has been connected with the Columbia Carriage Co., of Hamilton. Ohio, has accepted a position with the Westcott Motor Car Co. Fred has maintained this city as his home, his family havin'g been here, while he went back and forth to Hamilton. He says he wouldn't think of moving his" family away from such a good town, i red always was long on good judgment. Hegger says he has made arrangements with St. Peter so that every man appearing at the gate wearing a T. P. A. high hat will be admitted at once without passports or examination. Some of the boys would do well to have a hat in such an event. Charles Peirson has been off the road during the past eek. He has been suffering from a bad sprain of the muscles of the leg. Charles Zink of New Albany, seems to have no opposition - for state president. All the other prospective candidates have taken to their storm cellars. With Zink to beat it's a lead pipe cinch that everybody else would have no show. There has been sixty hats sold up to date which is surely going some. Hegger has been the most busy man in town during the last week rounding up the hat crowd. Any one desiring to get in at this late date should hand his money to J. B. Hegger, Esq. Our dear old friend. Tooker of Kokomo. will be in Richmond next Sat urday night to take in the smoker and help eat a little of the lunch. He will come to Richmond via Winchester and will return to Kokomo via the same route. President Lebo and Marion Shreeve were in Indianapolis yesterday attending to business. Don't fail to be in time for the big lunch next Saturday. Our French chef "Shorty" Shreeve, with his bunch of dish washers, are now busy getting together the turkeys and the dressing and the balance of the good things to eat. T. P. A. politics are on the jump now. The candidates are working hard for votes. One would imagine that a fellow would naturally get accustomed to buy ing bargains and would be able to hold his eauilibrium at all times. But such is not the case. The other day Tom Williams, after Inquiring the price or ees all over the country, finally locat ed some at bargain prices in Economy. The price was so low he promised not to tell. In the confusion that follow ed such a purchase Tom went off to the depot and forgot his eggs, wnen he found his eggs missing he became so much more excited that he forgot to purchase a railroad ticket and had to come to Richmond without eggs and pay extra fare on the train. The eggs are held for him In cold storage. Four or five of the old timers who traveled the road away back ..thirty years ago were seated in the club rooms the other day discussing the cold winter through which we had just passed. Newt Jenkins, who hap pened to be one of the crowd had ooo

'Hi Hi:-

easily carried off the honors for cold weather experience when Charlie Morgan joined the cold weather discussion and offered to put his experience up against the world. "It was like this, said Charlie. "I was on my regular trip up through the north end of my territory which lay around Marion. This was just twenty eight years ago and I was a prune peddler out of sight, if I do say it myself. Well, I landed in Gas City one night with the weather hanging so low it nearly touched the ground. I scouted over to see one of my good customers and after selling a couple of barrels of sugar and a box of soap, I began to think I had better get located properly over at the Waldorf of Gas City. I blew in to the hotel office in one big breeze just about as cold as the north pole was when Cook located It within a couple of thousand miles.

Mr. Landlord was seated alongside af a big stove with his boots perched on the top of the heater and a cob pipe sticking from his mass of whiskers At his side stood a lantern peacefully consuming some of John D. s best." "Say. Charlie." shouted Mr. Landlord "you come most nigh to being locked out. The blamed bouse is filled except one room, so you can sleep In No. 8." "So, I was shown to No. 8 and left alone in the dark to find my bed the best way I could. Lamps were at a premium in this hotel. Well, along about eleven o'clock I woke up with a sudden chill. I wanted more bed clothes. I got up and paced down the hall and slipped Into another fellow's room and stole some of his bed clothes. I went back, piled my overcoat and new bed clothes on and went to sleep again. Well, along early in the morning I awoke again and thought this time I was sleeping on an Ice berg. I slipped out again and stole a few more covers. Not long after this Mr. Landlord pounded on the door announcing time to roll out Out I came and by the dim light of the early morning I could locate the window. To me that window looked mighty big. I went a little closer and to my surprise found the whole window sashes were out and just below the window sill the plaster and weather boarding had been knocked off of a space about two feet square. I didn't wait to see if that was the sun parlor or not, but hurried to the office. "Mr. Landlord was there with his boots on all right and had a peculiar look just above -his whiskers." "Mighty sorry Charlie that you had to take that room last night, but the house was full. That room hasn't been used since last summer, and it needs a little repairing now," said the landlord. "Little cool last night; just twenty-eight below zero now and I expect that room is colder than that," he continued. "Not a bit," I replied. "I am usesd to that; I always sleep on the back porch upstairs in the winter time. And then I hurried over to the depot to catch the C:10 train. No, I haven't been back there since."

CALMLY WHITTLING WHEN HE IS FOND

Noah Mullendore, Wealthy Preble Farmer, Found at Home of Brother. MISSING SINCE THURSDAY HIS ABSENCE CAUSED ALARM, SOME FEARING FOUL PLAY, OTHERS THAT HE FELL INTO A CREEK. (Palladium Special) Eaton, O., March lt. Sitting in the wood shed at the home of his brother. Ihe Mullendore, calmly whittling a stick and apparently unconscious of the anxiety and excitement his absence had caused. Noah Mullendore. a wealthy farmer residing at Gratis, a little village nine miles east of here, who has been missing since Thursday afternoon, was found this evening by relatives. It is thought that the man is mentally unbalanced. Mullendore left the home of his brother Thursday stating at that time that he was going for a walk along the creek. For two days nothing was seen of him and his continued absence caused great alarm. The surrounding country was searched, but no trace of his whereabouts was found. A note was found written by him In which he declared that he was of no benefit to anybody and after this dis covery it was the general supposition that he had committed suicide. When questioned concerning the cause for his actions the farmer refused to say a word and could not be induced to discuss the matter. He, apparently was perfectly normal mentally at the time of his disappearance, but showed some signs. It Is said, which would tend to lead relatives to believe that he was suffering silghtly from melan cholia. Foul play was given some credence in view of the fact that Mullendore had a considerable sum of money on his person when last seen, having sold his tobacco crop a few days previous. Blood hounds from Dayton were Im mediately put on his trail, but failed to take up the scent and their efforts availed nothing. 'Numeral Names. In view v the abundance of material from which to select and of the illimitable field of Invention there seems to be no good reason for descending to the numerals to designate towns and villages In this country, yet there are at least thirteen postofflces in the United States that possess no other official name than that of a common numeral. Here they are: Seven. Tenn.; Fourteen. W. Va.; Fifteen, O.; Sixteen, Mont.; Seventeen, O.; Thirty-nine, Ala.; Forty-eight. Tenn.; Seventy-six. Ky., and Ninety-six, N. C Harper's Weekly.
