All hastened toward thedini: g room
witl; pleasant anticipations oi the
fca-t in .store for them, when it was
.mnou.iecd that tho.vj drawing mm

that they would not. have to hurry

at the second table. The serving
"was gracefully carried on by Misses
Vesta Ilaton, Berniee Newell and
Ila.el Icvey. nssisted at the lirst table
by -'Brick'" who also had the cap and
apron of the full fudged waiter, and
who alspj assisted Mrs. J. II. Donnelly
in tlie supervision cf t!ie "cusine."
After indulging in the abundance of
eatables, the supper came to an end
and the dish washing was instituted.
Ir.to this act the gentlemen were in
veigled, but with some smiling coun
tenances and faithful work this un
expected task was soon disposed of, to
ne followed by music, and other forms
of amusement. The entertainment of
the evening culminated in a dress
parade the gentlemen appearing in
ladies capes, coats, veils and headgear,
while the ladies assumed the over
coats and caps belonging to the gentle
men. "Brick" was something lu
dricrous to behold in feminine ac
cessories, and it is safe to say that be
would have carried off the prize, if
there had .been any.
That the ladies of the auxiliary are
most excellent entertainers was fully
demonstrated, and with many regrets
that uch enjoyable affairs can not be
prolonged indetinitely, tlie partici
pants took leave of the host and
hostess.
Enjoyable Affair at Dovey Home.
The members of the Five-Hundred
club were delightfully entertained last
evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
r.eorice 11. Dovey, by Miss Margaret.
Tlie affair was in the nature of a fare
well party to Miss Ida Pearlrnan. who
is soon to leave for her future home in
Omaha. At progressive five-hundred,
the evening hours were pleasantly
whiled away, and in this contest, Miss
Ruth Johnson won the honors.
An elegant live-course luncheon
served by Misses Elizabeth Falter and
Catherine Dovey followed this enter
taining game, and after enjoying a
very sociable time, the merry makers
expressed their appreciation of the
evening, and bade Miss Ida good night,
wishing her much happiness In the
city that has been selected for a home.
Those to take part In the occasion
were Misses Gretchen Donnelly, Emma
Falter, Ellen Windham, Zetta Brown,
Margaret Mauzy, Ruth Johnson, Ida
Fearlman, Frances Weidman, Helen
Dovey, Gladys Sullivan and Gladys
Marshall.
Entertained at Box Social.
The Social Workers, a society of
young women of the M. K. church,
met last evening at the home of Mrs.
J. D. McBride and entertained as
guests their husbands and gentlemen
friends. The principal entertainment
provided for the evening was a short
program, followed by a box social.
Miss Josephine Graves, a graduate of
the elocutionary department of the
Fremont Normal school, was present
and favored the gathering with sev
eral interesting readings, and selec
tions by E. II. Wescott and Miss Etha
Crabill also assisted in promoting the
enjoyable time that prevailed through
out the evening.
Between thirty and thirty-five young
people participated In the pleasant
social time and partoo.c or the tie- j
licious iLiicheid), which followed a j
guessing name that produced much j
merriment. The social was considered ;
a decided success in view of the in-

A HEW ORDER OF THINGS;
Rural Mall Boies to be Numbered Hers
after, According to Late Reports.
According to the
Postmaster Si.er, of
Lincoln News,
that city, has
been notified tliat it lias been ordered
by the postothec department, for pub
lic convenience and to facilitate a
more accurate handling of mail by
rural free delivery carriers, that each
rural mail box in use on a rural route,
which, under trie regulations, is en
titled to service, shall be dcsigi ated
by number.
Tii is is the proposed system against
v. hieh associations of retail merchants
ail over the country have for many
months b' cu protesting, claiming that
. will enat.le th-'' big catalogue h uses
. i!' od the count ry with their adur
ad vert i.-e m nts and thi.s injure or
d-.-triy the r tailors' busii.e.s e ery
when. In calling attention to this
i pier rw.stitia.sier Sier is sending wit
to all rurai delivery natrons a notice
designating t heoflicia! number of -ach
and requesting that the .same be :.t
or.ee iegib'.y and durably inscribed in
a conspicuous place1 on the outside of
t ho bnw the Jig u res to K? u t less 1 1 .: n
one and one-half inches in height and
inscribed with durable paint. In: me
diate compliance with the order is re
quested. All mail addressed to patrons should
bear the name, as well as the box num
ber, as mail addressed simply to the
box number is not mailable or deliver-1
able, l'atrons are ask.-d to notifv pub-
i lishers of anv naner thev receive and
your correspondents generally of box
n u ni be rs. Ti le reg u 1 a t i on s pro v i rl e 1 1 a t :
"No box shall be approved for use
on rural routes whicli is not provided
with a suitable signal which, although
it may be comparatively sinipie and
inexpensive. is durable and so designed
and attached as to fully erve the pur
pose of indicating whether or. not
there is mail in the box.
"Kural mail boxes and their con
tents are protected by federal statute
from willful or malicious damage or
depredation, and postmasters will
promptly report to the department
depredations on or interference with
rural mail boxes, or their contents,
whicli come to their notice, with all
the facts obtainable in connection
therewith.
"The following inscriptions only are
permitted to appear on approved boxes,
viz: The name of owner and number
of box: name and ddress of manufac
turer, inconspicuously placed: the
words 'Approved by the postmaster
general;' U. S. mail.'
"Each box must be erected by the
roadside, so that carrier can easily ob
tain access to it without deviating
from route or dismounting from his
vehicle.
"Persons neiilectini or refusing to
comply with the conditions herein set
forth will be regarded as not desiring
rural delivery and the rural carrier
wiil be directed not to serve them."
It will be noted that the order has
been so modified that matter which
does not contain the name of the per
se.n to whom sent is not deliverable,
which seems to remove the objections
of retailers.
The Schoolma'am.
The Fremont Herald pays the fol
lowing glowing tribute to the female
school teachers, which meets the ap
proval of the Journal in every word
uttered:
"It is not difticult to observe a grow
ing tendency to praise the school
ma'am. Leading writers, preachers,
lecturers and thinkers speak more
kindly, more gently and more fre
quently of her than ever before.
"Why?
"We shall scarcely undertake the
task of giving the reasons. It would
not be difficult, however.to give many,
offhand. Certain it is that every in
telligent father and mother who be
lieves in education know many good
reasons. Every person who loves to
see knowledge thrive and children ex
pand has many reasons.
"Every boy and girl now grown up
who recalls the many hours of patient
effort which some kind young woman
gave to instill in the childish mind
the higher and better thoughts under
stands. Indeed, it is only those who
have never been privileged to know by
actual experience or by observation
what a great work the teacher of the
present day is doiDg who fails to ap
preciate her fully.
"We hope the day will come that
more general attention will be directed
to the work of the schoolmistress, and
more appreciation shown her in a ma
terial as well as a social way. Pay her
well. There is no one employed in
this great country today who gives so
much that is good and takes so little
in return as the schoolma'am."

Injunction Suit Dismissed.
The injunction suit of John Schsap
pacasse vs. McMaken & Son, was dis
missed yesterday afternoon by the
plaintiff. At the time of filing the
case, a restraining order was granted
by Judge Travis to prevent the defend
ants from interfering with the plaint
iff in the harvest of ice from the same
slough, situated west of the main
channel of the Missouri river.
After securing the protection of the
court in order to cut from the same
field as McMaken.the plaintiff, Schiap
pacasse, was unable to obtain sufficient
assistance to carry on the work, until
today.
Conditions Have Been Serious.
Conditions have been so serious on
the Northern Pacific recently that
that road warned the Burlington to
send no cars on the through trains that
were not equipped with independent
heating plants, as well as with steam
heating pipe from the engine. The
liability of a train being buried in a
snow drift and the engine being una
ble to afford heat for the train, made
railroad men cautious about the kind
of equipment used in Northern Pacific
trains.

Theatre Change.
Woodward it Burgess have disposed
of their lease to the Overland theatre
in Nebraska City to the Commercial
club of that city, which took charge
today. Boy C. Emory, who has been
the Burgess local manager, goes to
Chicago, where he has been placed in
charge of one of their theatres at that
place. Mr. Charles Rolfe has been ap
pointed manager by the Commercial
club and will have charge of the house.
It is thought the Commercial club
will take a lease of the house for the
next three years and place Mr. Rolfe
in charge during that time. Mr. Rolfe
was formerly manager of the house
prior to last year.
Burlingtnn to Reduce Time.
Tlie Omaha News says that while it
is not otlicially announced, it is re
ported that Burlington is making ar
rangements to have its fast mail train
from Chicago reach Omaha earlier in
the morning than it is now arriving
When the Rock Island secured the
local fast mail contract from the Bur
lington through the arrangement of
an Englewood connection, which made
it possible for the former road to reach
Omaha fifteen minutes earlier in the
day than the Burlington, Burlington
officials were compelled to consider an
earlier arrival in Omaha with the
eastern mail, fearing that they might
lose their mail contracts.
It is understood that the Burling
ton has arranged in Chicago to trans
fer eastern mail delivered by the New
York Central and save twenty min
utes' time. Possibly more time will
be made up by the arrangements now
being planned.
Don't ;Be Sour.
Be cheerful; and if you can't be cheer
ful be as cheerful as you can. It is not
only justice to your fellow man, but it
is that and more to you. Pickles are
all right in their place, but they are
not good for steady diet. They Injure
the digestion. So does a sour face. It
isn't fit to wear anywhere except to a
funeral, and it certainly offers no great
comfort to the chief mourners there.
Your friends' faces are only mirrors
to reflect your own countenance. If
they look sour to you, a French plate
would do the same thing. If you find
a pleasant smile in every face you could
also find one in the gurgling water by
the spring.

Child Labor in the Legislature.
The special correspondent of tlie Om
aha Bee from Lincoln, in speaking of
the child labor bill, says: "By passing
the Clarke child labor bill the house
this morning placed itself in a very
awkward position, and unless it sweeps
from the pay roll at once a number of
pages who, under the provisions of the
bill, should be in school, it becomes, in
spirit at least, a law breaker. Under
the terms of this bill, which it passed
almost unanimously, the house breaks
the law every day it keeps on the pay
roll a boy under 14 years of age; it re
pudiates its own action every day it
fails to keep posted in a conspicuous
place a certificate showing the names
of the boys under 10 years old it em
ploys: it sets an example for lawless
ness every time it compels a page un
der 14 to work more than forty-eight
hours each week: its members are sub
ject to tine, or will be should the bill
pass the senate and be signed by the
governor, every time they send a page
to the bill room for a bill after 7 o'clock
in the evening or ask him to work be
fore 7 in the morning. Unless the per
son in charge of the pages under V
keeps a record posted in a conspicuous
place showing how much time each
boy takes off for his meals and the
hours he works, every member of the
house is subject to arrest.
"Will you discharge the pages.as the
provisions of the child labor bill pro
vides?" was asked Speaker Nettleton.
"I don't know," answered the speak
er. "I don't know what to do. I voted
against the measure."
In Honor of Pearlmans.
At the home of the Pepperbergs a
pleasant gathering occurred yesterday
afternoon, in response to invitations
to spend the afternoon with Mrs.Pearl
man and daughter, Miss Ida. The af
ternoon was devoted to music and so
cial conversation, followed by sn ele
gant four course dinner, at which cov
ers were laid for ten. At the close of
the enjoyable afternoon, which was in-
terspered with expressions of regret
that the Pearlman's were to leave our
community and wishesthat they would
experience much happiness in Omaha,
the ladies departed for their several
homes.
Veterinary Bill Defeated.
The original veterinary bill, which
would have given all veterinarians who
had practiced the profession in the
state for ten years, the right to prac
tice and the right to the title of "Vet
erinary Surgeon," was defeated in the
legislature yesterday. This does not
stop here, as those wbo are cut out by
the defeat of the measure, expect to
carry the matter to the supreme court,
and expect to fight for his rights, if
they have to carry on the war for years.

Blue Laws for Malvern.
Malvern. Ja , is on" of the best towns
in southwest Iowa, and has always
been considered one of the best busi
ness towns of its size in the state, but,
like many towns, it sometimes over
does itself, and if the following special
from tliat city is true, it is guilty of
inaugurating .'-ome of the blue laws en
forced in New England two hundred
years ago:
'"Malvern is tasting the 'obits of
blue laws, the authorities prohibiting
the sale on Sunday of many art icles.
Hotels and restaurants can only serve
regular meals. Ostor stews an; under
tlie ban. Milk can be sold only until
11 o'clock in the forenoon and after
in the afternoon. Newspapers, cigars
and tobacco are tabooed."
In Honor of Bride and Groom.
A reception in honor of the newly
wedded couple, Mr. and Mrs. Louis
Keil, was given at tlie home of the
groom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. P.
Keil, near Cedar Creek last evening.
Only a limited number of relatives
and friends were present but the oc
casion proved a most enjoyable one.
After enjoying a few hours in "trip
ping the light fantastic," the merry
crowd sat down to a table which fairly
groaned under its weight of tlie many
good things prepared for the event.
One who was there says it was a grand
affair and that Uncle Peter and his ex
cellent lady enjoyed tlie alfair as well
as any of those present and thus greet
ed their new daughter in a most be
coming manner.
