The following named young lady friends of the host esses assistedjin serving : Miss Bridge , Miss Temple , Miss Wilkinson , Miss Davenport , Miss Norton , Miss Fannie Davenport. The afternoon was thor oughly enjoyed by those who partici pated. Today has been the kind of day , as far as the weather is concerned , that farmers and gardners have been looking for a long time. It started in to rain some time during the night | and al though a great amount of moisture has not been participated up to this time , there have been numerous showers dur ing the day with prospects for more before - fore it clears again. The people are quite in favor of the wet weather con tinuing until the ground has become thoroughly soaked. About 11 o'clock the wind whipped around to the north west and has since been blowing a gale with frequent showers. The wind has undoubtedly done some damage to out buildings and otherwise but the rain has done more good than the wind has harm so the change is very generally welcome. Among the freaks performed by the wind was to remove the triangle from in front of the Auditorium and blow the Uog stall from THE NEWS office. The new high school orchestra is starting out with every prospect that it will bo a musical organization of which the schools and city may be proud.

' CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE. i Republicans Will Moot TonlRht to Call Convention j The republican congressional contra committee will moot this evening at U o'clock at the olficu of Mapes & llaztm' for the purpose of selecting n tlmo and place for the holding of the coming con- volition of that p' . rty , when n candidate for congrosH will bo named. It IB prob able that there will bo quite u contest between the various towns of the district for the honor of entertaining the con vention. While it is conceded that Norfolk is the best point for the meet ing and the citizens hero would bo glad to entertain it , the probability is that the claims of otlicr towns may bo given more consideration by the committee for the reason that Norfolk has had the B3voral late conventions of the party. Being near the center of the district and having nuiplo railroad facili ties Norfolk has strong advantages to fortify any invitation that maybe bo extended. Fremont would like the mooting to be held there this year. Wakofiold and Wayne are also willing to entertain the meeting and will probably undertake to repre sent to the committee why their towns should bo given the opportunity of en tertaining the delegates. Among the politicians hero to attend the meeting are J. .1. MoCarty of Ponca , George A. Brooks of Ba/.ilo Mills , both candidates for the nomination , and J. H.
