The Old Maids' Conention.
One of he most enjoyable
entertainments piven in Murray
for many a day was the Old Maids'
Convention, given at Jenkins' hall
last, Saturday evening by the,
ladies of the Aid society, under
the direction of Mrs. J. F. Mrendel.
The attendance was very large,
the receipts being almost $90,
which will go into the treasury of
I he society after the expenses are
paid. The great, transforming
scene, the wonderful doctor, his
powerful remedies and his mon
ster transforming machine was,
of course, a feature part of the
entertainment, at which time each
menuier oi trie convention was
transformed into the character of
their choice. The ladies were all
excellent in tin; characters thev
represented, as well as the doctor,
and many of whom are deserving
of personal mention, but not wit
nessing the performance the
writer is unable to give such men
tion, so all we can say is as they
told us they were all good. All
are praising the excellent work of
Mrs. Mrendel in directing and
staging the production.

LINCOLN STATUE
ISJN PLACE
Taken from Case and Placed
Upon Pedestal at Capital.
NO SPEAKER FOR UNVEILING.
Governor Aldrich as Yet Unable to Se
cure Orator of Sufficient Prominence
to Suit Committee Robert T. Lin
coin to' Assist in Ceremonies.
Lincoln, June 27. After a long and
uneventful journey, in which he laid
for many days In the freight house of
the Northwestern railway in this city,
Abraham Lincoln arrived at the state
house grounds and was taken from his
box and placed upon the pedestal pre
pared for him on the west side of the
state house.
The statue is about eight feet high
and appears to be a fine piece of work.
The head is slightly bowed and ap
pears to be representative of Lincoln
in a deep study. The figure will be
clothed in a canvas cover and will not
be open to public view until the un
veiling on Labor day.
The securing of an orator for the
unveiling ceremonies has been turned
over to Governor Aldrich, who has not
yet been able to secure a marmot suf
ficient prominence to suit the ;mmit
tee. It is expected that Robert T.
Lincoln, son of the president, will be
present when the figure is unveiled to
assist in the ceremonies, but it is
the Intention of the committee to get
a speaker of national reputation for
the main address.
It has been suggested that inas
much as Lincoln already possesses a
man of more than national prom
inence, that It might be perfectly
proper to have him deliver the address.

ter, was trying to get a revolver from
the showcase when he struck her.

Lincoln, June 27. Governor Aldrich
