i SOCIAL EVENTS j
The church parlors of the New
man M. E. church were the scene of
a merry gathering on Tuesday after
noon of last week, the occasion be
ing a reception in honor of the boys
of the primary classes, tendered by
the girls of the classes. About
three months ago a contest was ar
ranged whereby the side bringing
in the largest number of rew pupils
during the allotted three months
time should be entertained by the
ones bringing In the smallest num
ber. The boys won out by a major
Ity of two, they securing twenty-five
new pupils, the girls being a close
second with twenty-three to their
credit. At the reception on Tues
day afternoon the girls furnished the
refreshments of sandwiches, pickles,
cake and lemonade, while the boys
furnished the program, and the af
ternoon proved to be one of the
most thoroughly enjoyable affairs
one would wish to attends There
was a peanut hunt in which the
boys hid the peanuts for the girls to
find, and many amusing games, the
one causing the most amusement
perhaps, being the attempt of varf
ous ones to pin the tall onto a don
key which was drawn and hung on
the wall, each little lady and genlte
man to be blindfolded while per
forming the feat. The boys made
speeches and all told stories, and
Miss Winifred Flanagan rendered
some splendid selections on the
piano. The reception was delight
ful in every particular and the little
ones, with their teachers and sup
erintendent, Mrs. Hood, will long re
member the event with pleasure.
Willi Prof. Turner's Compliments.
Prof. R. R. Turner has become a

fruit" of this kind. The Courier
force can testify to the richness of
these melons as they were presented
with his compliments, to a fine large
one on Wednesday, and It was much
enjoyed. Here's to success! May It
ever follow Prof. Turner.

which thus far has been quite un
eventful. We have aeen some por
poises, a few flying fish, but only
one vessel In the past five days.
There Is a reason for this, as each
of the regular steamship lines has
its own course, and far enough apart
so that while we are In dally wire
less communication with from two
to six liners we have seen none of
them.
Occasionally we get copies of the

last Saturday night there was a
dance on the promenade deck, the
weather being perfect. Quite a
number of swell gowns graced the
occasion nnd about half a dozen
claw-hammer coats were In evidence.
Tonight we have n concert by the
passengers. 1 nlniost forgot to men

have on board a rear admlrnl, a
countess and a princess with retinue.

ocean trln was uneventful. We
"ached Roulogne. on the coast of
France, yesterday at 4:30 a. m., and
we saw the passengers for Paris de

It Is an eleven-hour run from
Roulogne to Rotterdam and the part
of It from the Hook of Holland to
Rotterdam Is most Interesting, and
as we had perfect weather It was a
delight. So also was our two hour
trip from Rotterdam to Velp, where
we arrived Just hefore dark, thus
ending our outward Journey of 7R00
miles. GEO. P. CRAMER.
Will Vot on Purchase of Roller.
At the regular meeting of the city
council on Thursday night of last
week it was decided to hold a special
election so that taxpayers could vote
on the question of buying a steam
roller. The city attorney is now
drawing the necessary ordinance so
that the question may be submitted
to the people. The price of the roll
er is 12400. It Is to be hoped that
the city will be able to purchase
this machine as It will be needed
