Walters, Mr. and Mrs. - Engman, Mr. and Mrs. Robert C., residence was the scene of the social event of the past week, when they gave a surprise party and "candy pulling" in honor of their niece, Miss Grace Bonds, of Handsboro.  The party was a surprise one and formed at the residence of Mr.  and Mrs.  Walters.  The surprise was one that was wholly unexpected and the warm reception given by Mr.  and Mrs.  Engman evidenced a hearty welcome.  The house, from parlor to where the cook predominates, was graciously turned over to the young merry-makers and immediately the enjoyment of a very pleasant evening was inaugurated.  A delightful orchestral band, composed of local talent, kindly furnished lovely music and occasionally Mrs.  Engman and a number of the young ladies present skillfully played on the piano.  About 11 o'clock candy pulling was announced and soon the participants were exercising their muscles in a most vigorous manner.  The first prize, an elegant box of fine writing paper, for the whitest candy was won by Miss Caldwell and Mr. H.S.  SAucier received the booby prize that created no end of pleasant comment. The booby prize was an original one in the shape of a baby's nursing bottle filled with milk and labeled "ready for emergency" and accompanying the bottle was a box of condensed milk.  To the choicest of dainty homemade cakes and delightful refreshments such as wine punch, etc., there seemed to be no limit and were served in the spacious dining room.  Mr. and Mrs.  Engman certainly know how to entertain and when the young people, who were present, will grow old and tell their grandchildren of their youthful days, they will always tell how Mr. and Mrs. Engman pleasantly entertained them.

Waveland Regatta - Waveland, July 15, 1893. - Those who followed the orthodox seaside custom of rising at dawn and going about without even a cup of coffee until very late breakfast time, found that the morning gave promise of an intensely hot day. Long before 7 o'clock in the morning the sun was beating down upon the picturesque, pretty and very dusty road that borders the Waveland and Bay St. Louis coast, with a fierce fervor that was well nigh unbearable. There was a very light breeze off shore, which may have made life upon the yachts a trifle more tolerable, but ashore the temperature was discouragingly high before 7 o'clock, and by 8 it was well nigh unbearable. Yesterday a stiff breeze had sprung up during the forenoon, and from this circumstance the promoters of the Waveland Regatta were not at all discouraged when they saw the morning grow calm, bright and intensely hot during its early hours.
