AOrnud Success.
Tho oyster supper glyen In tho basement
of tho Pjresbyterlan church on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday evenings of last week
by tho good ladies of that congregation was
a grand success both socially and finan
daily. They realized considerable oyer a
hundred dollars, which shows that upwards
five hundred guestj were entertained,
among whom were many of our best citl
zens and a large number of people from
Mauch Chunk and other places.
The room was beautifully and artistically
decorated with bunting, flowers and plant;,
Tbe tables were covered with tho 'finest
white linen and fairly loaded down with
costly silycrwaro and china. Each tablo
was adorned with a complete tea-service
There were four such tables and they were

the cullncry department and entertained
their many guests with such grace and dig
nity that even tho most fastidious were
pleased far beyond expectation
Mrs. lUtclilT and Mrs. Hibjler looked
after affairs In the kitchen and the way
they catered to tbo appetites of tha guests
showed their thorough accompllsnmcnt tn
that lino. It is doubtful If Delmontco'S
best cook could have done half as well.
