At 6:30 in the evening, the beauty mid
chivalry of Loup City began to arrive
en masse and soon the hah wa< a scene
of social activity. Tables, groaning un

bles, fruits and dainties of all kinds, jr -
pared by ihe delt fingers and loving
hearts ot the wives, daughters and

justice. At tiie cl<s* of the oanque.
came a flow of wit and oratory, contin

delighted guests, that past master in

! hands Hon. H. M Mathew gave the
1 welcome address, for which he was pre
eminently well fitted and was at his
very best, his s -Hies of wit and humor
provoking continual apulau e. It was
a source of regr.-l that Judge Wail,who
had the | rinc pal toast < f the evening,
“the Ueautiesol Knighthood,” was un
able to be present, and was the only
source of regret for the evening the
otner toasts were, however, given in
such a happy vein as to make up great
ly for the loss. W. K. Metlor left his
hearers in doubt as to what he knew
about some ">ecr*t8.” Robt. iJ. Starr
delved into “The Romantic,” with the
! confidt nee of an expert on that deli
cious. dreamy experience, wmle John
\V Long gave *‘Th Ladies’ some of
the pulsa ions of hissusceptib e heart—
yeais ago, v hen it was young and ten
der. Following the banqueting and
toasts, and while preparations were be
ing made for llie comedv to r>e present
ed later, Mr. Ii. i\ VlcKinnie, whom we
s<-me time since mentioned as having
been in operatic work in the past, fa
vored the audience with several m* st
excellent baritone solos, being accom
panied by Mrs. Starr in pan and at oth
er times plajing his own accompani
ment, ti-e anplause following • ach song
only stilled when he consented to favor

McKinnie is ,<n artist par excellence.
Following came a most laughable little
comedy, full of perplexing situations,
characterized by Mesdaine* R. P. Starr
and VV. lVdler, Miss Cora Leiningerand
the Messrs. Lawrence Smith and Stew

work as to the manor born, and kept up
the ripple of amusement throughout.
All in all the Sir Knights, their ladies
and alt who participated in getting m>
and carrying forward the entertain
ment are to be heartily congratulated
on its unqualified success.
