Tho other play "Tho Two Puddi
foots," in which Van Horn, Leo At

A Successful Service.
Thoso who wero present at tho
Christian church last evening wit
nessed one of the most pleasing and
delightful scenes thnt has taken place
during any of the services; that of
nine young people going forward to
the altar and declaring' publicly their
intentions of following Christ.
The subject of the evening "Four
Fools We Head About In the ttible"
was delivered in an excellent manner
by Rev. Lemon, and was listened to
by a small, but appreciative audience
The interest taken in these meeting
is rapidly growing there being now
twenty-Be ven converts.
1'rof. Iravis' solo was also very
pleasing and was highly appreciated
The faermon tonight "The Jailor
and tho Jailor's Household" will no
doubt be heard by a large audience,
Completely Surprised.
Yesterday was Frank Morgan's
birthday anniversary, and as he had
business in Omaha and did not return
home until 8:25 in the evening, his
wife had a good opportunity to get up
a very complete surprise on him which
was utilized. Thirty-four of his
friends met at the Kiley and went to
the Morcan residence in a bodv about
8 o'clock and when Frank got home,
he showed the surprise he felt on find
ing such a company comfortably lo
cated at the family residence.
The evening was given over to cards
and conversation, and later on an ele
gant luncheon was served to the evi
dent delectation of all present, who
wished the host many returns of so
congenial a birthday anniversary.
Off For the Sand Hills.
Thos. Parmele, Frank Morgan and
Byron ClarK packed their collar-
boxes, their dogs, guns, ammunition
and "provender" and left this after
noon for the Sand Hills, in the vici
nity of Alliance, in search of ducks,
geese and whatever game they might
be able to find. They will be gone
about one week, when they will re
turn with bad. colds, an abundance of
summer stories and some game. We
trust the boys will have a good time
and return to the bosom of their fami
lies and to the arms of their friends
much improved in health from their
recreation.

A cigar dealer in the west cud said
to a reporter for tho Cincinnati Com
mercial Tribune : "It takes a mighty
sharp man to get ahead of a boy, for a
fact. One of them came in here not
long ago, and he was old enough to buy
cigarettes aud wanted a package. I sold
them anel got the money. In a minute
a neighbor came in and wanted to know
what the boy bought. I told him.
"'Well, said he, 'that beata the
devil! Do you know what that boy did?
lie was in my store about five minutes
ago and asked me to buy a pamphlet
that is issued by tho Anticigarette
league, whatever that is. He told me
that the boys in tho public schools were
trying to sell them everywhere to do
away with the bad habit of cigarette
smoking among the echoolboys. I
thought it was a good thing, and I
bought ono from him. He sold some
others in the same neighborhood. Now
that little rascal comes in here and
spends my money for cigarettes, and
I'll Let a dollar that you'll find him
around here somewhere near smoking
for all that's out. I'm going to look
him up.'
"The next day I asked him if he had
caught tho kid, and ho said:
" 'I did. He and some chums were
having a good timo of it, and, more
than that, all of them were in tho same
business. They thought it was a good
joke, and I supposo it was on me but
if they come arouurl my store again
they'll get booted out.'
"But," said tho cigar dealer, "tbey
are too sharp to get caught. They only
work one iiian at a time, and none of
tho gang ever goes Lack again. They keep
a list, and I expect an examination will
show that they have been to every store
in that whole neighborhood. Where
they get the pamphlets I do not know,
but I imagine seme of the good people
of the league had them printed for gra
tuitous circulation, and the boys con
cluded to sell them. They're pretty
slick."

A Benton lady of the most reserved

and loud looking woman, who held out
a pudgy hand in a bright green kid
glove and said:
"Why, how do yon do, Mrs. Blank?"
Mrs. Blank ignored the proffered
hand and, drawing herself up stiffly,
said frigidly:
"I do not think that I know you,
madam."
".No, I s'pose not," replied the wom
an, in nowise embarrassed by the cold
ness of her reception, "but I've knowed
you by sight for a long time, and now
I've got a hired girl who worked at your
house once a year or two ago, and she's
told me so much about you that I feel
