J. Brownell. manager , of the Home Telephone company, this morning. "Heretofore our company has made a practice of sending to Rochester, New York, for Its office desks and switch boards, where the1 latter are manufac tured out of Maine oak.

The commit tea. that arranged-tha Joke had careful ly omitted to tell the narxeantthat-U waa all a Joke, and Mr. Hofmann was unable to explain. The matter was ad' Justed by telephone with the police sta tion. A minstrel performance under direc tion, of Lincoln Hart brought down the house with Its questions and answers concerning various prominent guests. Tha Commercial club waiters struck in tha mldat of the banquet because tha German band was nonunion. In the confusion that followed somebody pro duced a large live goose, of the breed used on Ira F. Powers' furniture adver tising, and handed tha bird to Mr. Pow. era. who Inadvertently dropped It on tha table. Noting the Indications of a hot time, tha goose started north, wad ing through tha glassware, but Mr. Powers daxterlously caught it and saved tha glass.- . , '. " i Steffena Honored.
