AN ENJOYABLE EVENT The “ladies night” celebration Tues day evening under the auspices of the ('hamber of ('ommerce, was a big success and fully enjoyed, though the crowd Was smaller than in previous years. Clinton’s contingent of handsome women present, gave a fine back ground for the party. A spirit of good >.e that the public will virtually be oting whether the country is to bo .vet or dry. The present indications lie that it will rise up and say “Wet!” ind if that is the case, the Democrats will probably find their candidate in the White House; for the Democrats are admittedly wet while the Repub licans are split.

The stoi ni subsided, and in its place there came a vast calm from which a number of still, smifll voices began to ask questions. The result was that the success of two vears We owned 2 of the finest dogs that ever switches! a tail or scratched a flea. Their names were Taylor and Pennie. Old Taylor was a big yellow dog that would be called a common cur to day. He was jmssibly a very lazy dog to some folks, but he was “greased ago ruininl the chances of the Grand , boys.
