Yesterday Mrs. Fred Morgan ent
ertained at a dinner party in honor
of Mr. Morgan's birthday at their
home on south Seventh street. The
occasion was a merry one and was
in part a surprise to Mr. Morgan

After the sumptuous repast which
was up to Mrs. Morgan's usual high
standard Mr. Morgan was presented
with a beautiful large flag which
he will proudly display on the new-
flag pole which he has had erected
After the presentation of the flag
the company which was a very pat
riotic one decided that it was
fitting time for the national anthem.
So they all joined in the Star Spang
led Banner.
There were eighteen guests enter
tained at the Morgan home and they
all declared themselves as having
had the very best time possible and
extended to Mr. Morgan their very
best wishes for a long life and a
happy one.

FOUND POCKET BOOK IN RIVER.
From Monday's Daily. .
One day last week, a man travel
ing via auto, from some place in
Kansas,' to a point in Iowa, passed
through the city, and over the ferry
at the river. In doing so he was
willing to assist In the operation of
the ferry, and went to take up the
apron which admits the passage of
the vehicles on the boat, and in so
doing allowed a pocket book to fall
out of his pocket into the river,
which floated away and no one the
wiser. Arriving at Glenwood. he
discovered his loss and immediately
phoned to Mr. Richardson, asking
him to see if he could find the pock
et book. It so happened ako that
some one carelessly has allowed one
of the small boats of Mr. Richardson
to get away. He had to take
another one and go after it. On his
return he espied the well soaked
purse lying just at the water's edge
and securing it, was soon in com
munication with its owner, who re
turned and received the same do
nating $20.00 to Mr. Richardson
for his service. The pocket book
contained a $500.00 government
bond. $135.00 in money, and other
papers, in all $S00.00. Had it have
fallen into the hands of some irre
sponsible person it would probably
never have been returned, but in
the hands of Mr. Richardson it was
safe.
HAS THE FLU TOO.
From Monday's Daily.
Roy Denham, the operator at
Cedar Creek is reported as being cn
the sick list, as he is laid up with
the "flu." His friends will be sorry
to learn of his illness and hope that
it will not prove a serious case. The
many cases of the disease are not
only troublesome to the people af
flicted with it but are also a source
of inconvenience to the different
places where they are employed. At
present the labor problem is a great
one and it is to be hoped that the
epidemic will soon lose its hold. The
depot will be glad to welcome Mf.
Denham back as soon as he is able
to resume his duties.
