 the Leamington hotel, Minneapolis. 

 About 150 enjoyed the banquet and the 

 dance which followed. Sliort talks 

 were given bv Guy French, of Chicago; 

 C. F. Eice, Max Kaiser and S. D. Dy- 

 singer. Mrs. H. J. Will rendered two 

 solos in a pleasing manner. Mr. Will 

 made an excellent toastmaster, intro- 

 ducing the speakers as flowers. The 

 secretary and his wife were given the 

 surprise of their lives, when Mr. Dy- 

 singer, on behalf of the association, 

 presented Mrs. Cady with a basket of 

 carnations and roses and Mr. Cady with 

 a victrola. The short speaking pro- 

 gram gave a good opportunity for those 

 present to visit. L. C.

 known origin destroyed one of the boiler 

 houses at tlie range of Charles Anderson. 

 The amount of the damage has not been 

 estimated so far, but there were a large

 which were soaked with water and two 

 greenhouses were deprived of heat for 

 some time.
