The surprise party that we predicted came off Saturday night at the F.O. Carlson home, it being the fifty-fifth birthday of Mr. Carlson. About twenty-five were present. The evening was spent with games and much talk and laughter. Mrs. Carlson served a splendid supper, after which Mr. Carlson was presented with a fine chair in which he will no doubt take great comfort these long wintry evenings. At a late hour the guests departed all having had an unusually pleasant time.
