Excursion Party
A large nuuibei of ladles received
uvitaii'ius to an eeurliin part v, given
VvMr A Conovi i and Mrs. Frank
oiinui, iasi .vei'K .mii a iew weioni
lini to undeistaiid the nature of the
entertainment The invitations woic
lulled for Tuesday, October i!l.t, 11102
and not withstanding the many guesses
and stiiinises as to what it was going
to be, it is baldly necessary to say It
was n complete and novel siiipiise.
On ai living at tho home ol Mis
Couover, Tuesday afternoon the guests
went received nt the door by Mm,
Conovei's little daughter, Ha.nl, who
was assisted by Edna Clone and Ethic
Gather. After the ladies had removed
their wiaps, their attention was at
traded to the ticket olllcn where Mrs
Conovei's son, Haloid, was doing
duty as ticket agent. Each liuly wax
pu'MMitcd with a ticket over tne Con
,rtver Short Line and ('omliictor Warn
pmii's out their coach. This is no
oidiwify cMMii-iuii coach and et there
.must he something commonplace, this
is in the shape of a newsboy, who being
thiionlj male on the coach was made
much of by the ladies, needless to saj
he llirte t abominably. When the
train halted at a little stali.iu a vei
old lady bomlul her willi iliuais
t nice of both newshoy and conductor,
-ho told them she was going to see her
daughter. Things wuituioothily un
til the conductor dicoveied sho had
neither ticket nor money, but seeing
sympathy iu tho faces of the passengers
ho decided to take up a collodion,
their. sympathy however did not extend
as far as their pocket book, so tho poor
lady was put oil at tho next station,
much to tho disgust of tho newsboy.
At tho next station they had twenty
juinutcs for lunch, following tho di
rections of tho conductor, thoy found
the lunch couutee and sat down for a
hasty meal. The ladies tarried so long
at tho lunch counter, that their coach
left them. This ended tho excursion
party. Tho house was boautifuly and
tasteftily decorated with carnations
and ferns, music was also a feature of
the afternoon's entertainment. The
ladies aro ono in voting to Mrs. Con
over and Smith tho success of the
season.

THE REASON WHY.

Some go because they like to hear.
The preacher "rnko" thoir uoighboi-H

Some go because they aro afraid,
To not do so might injure trade.
Some go because they think Itsqimros
Tho week day shady hIii ulfiilr.s
Some go to take u quiet slioo.o,
While silting in tho restful pows,
Lulled by u soporific talk,
Gentle us u cradle's rock.
Some go under protest, who
Have wlfeys wlio compel them to.
Some go, but solely to ndinlre,
The women and singing of the choir
Some young men go because the fair,
Voting gills they're sweet on will be
there
Some go, they realy do not know,
Just why. they simply dress ami go.
And yet among the eball' we Hint
Much golden grain of htimniiMml;
Good christian men ntul wouicn who
To holy things are ever true;
Bright (lowers that spring from sinful
sod.
Who reallv go 'o worship God.
But, Oh! the millions on this ball
Who never go to chinch nt nil.
