The Dorcas' Farewell.
The Dorcas society of the Congrega
tional church tendered Mr. and Mrs. J.
F. Ganschow a farewell party at the
home of Agent and Mrs A. P.Thomson ,
last Friday evening , in which the hus
bands of the ladies participated. It was
a pleasant affair , whose joy was only
maried and lessened by the knowledge
that those in whose honor the party was
being given were soon to leave for the
east to make their home , after so long a
residence in our city , with whose growth
and development they have been so
intimately identified.
A notable feature of the evening weie
the refreshments , which were most
toothsome , attractive and wholesome ,
being daintily served with many charm
ing accessories.
THE TRIBUNE but expresses a widely
felt sentiment in wishing the departing
friends health , happiness and content
ment in their new home in the effete
east. They will for the present locate in
Coluuibus , Ohio.

The M. A. C. Commemorates.
In the superb banquet given by the
members of the McCook Athletic club ,
last Saturday , night , in the dining room
of the Commercial hotel , commemora
tive of their decisive victoiy over the yel
low and black on the blustery afternoon
of Thanksgiving day , the saying that
"Peace hath her victories no less renown
than war , " was in glowing social ways
interpreted anew to three score or more
members and friends and invited guests
of the club. Indeed , this peaceful ex
pression was not a whit less memorable
than was the glorious victory scored by
the crimson on the gridiron on last
Thursday afternoon.
The invitations issued called for the
presence of the guests at the Commercial
house parlors at nine o'clock. At the
hotel door each guest was presented wilh
the crimson colors of the club and then
escorted to the hotel parlors. At the
appointed hour , the members of the
club and their guesls repaired to the
dining room , upon entering which each
was made the recipient of a red carna
tion before being seated at the banquel
table.
The banquet spread was of the Com
mercial's best vintage , as the appended
bill of fare will disclose :
MENU.
Oyster Stew Celery Scalloped Oysters
Queen Olives Mixed Pickles Salad Dressing
Sliced Ham Cold Sliced Turkey
Cold Meats Chicken Salad Ox Tongue
Strawberry Beets
Winter Radishes Potato Salad
Cheese Straws Newport Wafers
Assorted Nuts
Strawberry Ice Cream Assorted Cake
Fruits Edam Cheese
Coffee Tea Milk
After the banquet , Rev. W. J. Turner
of the Athletic club was installed as
toastmaster , and the following responses
were had : '
Cashier W. F. Lawson of the First
National bank responded to the interro
gation , "Why are we Here ? " It seemed
to be self-evident why , but the speaker
suggested that , among other things , we
were present to assSe'v the club in making
a fitting demonstration over the victory
achieved , lo tender congratulations , and
incidentally to pay our respects to the
bountiful provision made for the phys
ical man in the line of edibles.
Coach J. R. Easley modestly detailed
"How we Did it ; " ascribing the result
to the superior team and head-work of
the club , each member vicing with the
other in an intelligent , gentlemanly ,
sportsman-like effort to do concerted
work that would win. ( However , the
boys think that the modest coach should
take much of the credit. ) Mr. Easley
suggested that athlelics is an uncqn/ :
scious discoverer of characler bringing
out alike the good and evil traits ; and
Signed strongly fgr thp educational value
of Gla sports , rationally administered ,
"Athletics" was briefly responded tt
by F. M. Kimuiell. who viewed the topic
from the character-making , soul-elevat
ing stand-point , a § Well as from the
physical-developing point of view. Urg
ing that the strenuous life demanded the
generous contest , and suggesting that
the generous victor and the inatily van
quished make a perfect equation , an
ideal situation of the world of sports.
Mayor J. E. Kelley answered lo "The
Public , " congratulating the club upon
their victory , the occasion and senti
ments being expressed. He thought
that when the public had a more intel
ligent view of football , its utlerances
would be more liberal and favorable to
the great sport , which , if honorably
played , slands at the head of American
sports. He felicilaled the club on ils
achievement no less lhan upon the spirit
of its accomplishment.
Captain L. C. Dole in speaking of
"The Game , " found it difficult to repress
his admiration for the game put up by
ihe crimson he thought that they could
lake care of all-comers , playing clean ,
scientific football ; and , barring one or
two players among the wearers of the
yellow and black , complimented the B.
& M. boys upon the sturdy game played
by them on that fateful Thanksgiving
afternoon.
EO. . Scott was the historian of the
evening , and reporled "The Club up to
Date. " His retrospective glance briefly
detailed its short , but eventful , career to
the present. Referring to a few of the
apparently insuperable difficulties of its
infancy , the courage and perseverance
and beeswax of the faithful few , he con
cluded with the pronouncement that the
M. A. C. is now on the sunny side of
Easy street , doing good work for the
young men of the city in clean athletics ,
with a hopeful future before it.
L. E. Cann took a glance into "The
Future" of the club and promptly and
confidently declared that the prospect is
most invitingly roseate. In fact , in pro
jecting the horoscope of the club , Mr.
Cann became so obliviously enthusiastic ,
that he lost all sense of form and color ,
and without reservation declared that
