Tho coming of Grand Chancellor Oli ver was made the occasion of a very pleasant evening in the Knights of Py thias loriae. After the regular meeting was finished, the hall was filled with iv large number of ladies and gentlemen, who listened with pleasure to the pro gram prepared lor the evening. Tho first number was a piano solo by Mrs. Varney, which was rendered, as is overythiim done by that talented lady, in the best manner possible. A song by little Lolo Kelsay brought forth hearty applause from the audi ence, as did also a vocal solo by Miss Maie dishing. 3Irs. Reynolds and Miss Gosser aided in the pleasure of the evening by a well rendered vocal duet. A banjo and guitar selectiou by Messrs. Parkins and Kice was next on the pro gram, and received from their hearers the appreciation it deserved. Mrs. Uradshaw next favored the au dience with a vocal solo, which was sweetly sung and evoked an encore, to which, owing to the lateness of the hour, the lady did not respond. After a pleasing selection by Miss Lela Kelsay, Grand Chancellor Oliver was called on for a brief address, to which he responded in well-chosen words, teeming with enthusiam for the beneficent order in which lie occupies such a high position. He paid a beauti ful tribute to what everyone knows to be the best part of a life, the influence of woman, and incidently remarks that were it not for the wives and mothers, none of us would be here. After Mr. Oliver's more than accepta ble address, the doora leading to the banquet room were swung open and the tables, loaded with all sorts of good things, were disclosed. When supper was over, the genial master of ceremonies, our own Phillips, commonly called Charley, announced that there would be dancing, and so there was until the clock hands had passed beyond midnight, and then, re luctantly, ttie Knights and ladies and their friends wended their way home ward. The entertainment was very pleasant, and in everv wav a success. Notice to Taxpayers.

In these days of cheap neckwear a man is poor indeed who cannot afford a large collection of ties. There is one young man in this city, however, says the Denver Times, who would have willingly paid five times the cost of a cravat, if necessary, a few days ago. Ho is a genius in his way, and, like most of his tribe, requires a guardian. It was on a bright, warm morning, not long since, that he sauntered from his home, just, about, shopping time, and in his absent-minded way wandered downtown. As he walked along Six teenth street people gazed at'him curi- I ously, and ome were ill-bred enough to laugh. Their curiosity was lost upon him, however, for he was far away in reveries of the bright, happy times when editor accept everything that is offered without even asking ambitious young authors to ruthlessly cut manu script "to satisfy our readers." He wandered into a crowded drug store, and, elbowing his way through the throngs of well-dressed women, asked for his favorite phosphate, and then continued his stroll until ho reached the oilieo of tho Times. Then .someone asketl hini whv hc (lkl not ,lreiS ,x'f":'e coming on the street. Ho looked up in mild amazement, sought a mirror, and then made a rush for the nearest hat) erdosherv. Since then ho lias become possessor of a complete collection of j ties, and when lie sees his sister wearing the choicest specimens, his hand fn-' variably seeks his collar band to keo, if . he has ugnui been neglectful. j Was Looking for n Queen. A son of the marquis of Salisbury is much interested in bee farming, and this very mild hobby resulted in the wildest kind of excitement in the neigh borhood of Hatfield recently. It all came about in this manner; Young Cecil, finding one of his hives queen- I lui-tr t-nrtt on r it'll r fi Wl H'Vll ln town t0 1Intfiol(1 for (irni. olin ,,,iet.n a famous Italian bee ami asja.(i to bo informed of the probable time of its arrival. The bee dealer sent off the bee by the next train and wired: Tho rpieen will arrive by .1: 10 this aft ! ernoon." When Lord Cecil reached the station to take possession of his lcc I he found the place thronged. The telo I graph clerk had interpreted the tele j gram that her majesty was paying a sudden visit to Hatfield, and, being un able to keep such interesting news to himself, the information spread like wildfire.

When Bryan, of Nchrnsku, in the Fifty third conpre-s, v;is in the midst of n rhetorical climax and with arms up lifted was gushing a very familiar line, the house was convulsed by tho ques tion of Walker, of Massachusetts: 'Who wrote that'.1" The whole, thing was so ridiculous that it was five min utes before Bryan could go on.
