Pistorio’s band fur- nished the music. Before the reception begun Mr. Wm. R. Collins made a brief address in be- half of the congregation, expressing their sentiments of respect and esteem for Father Roccofort and their congratulations on the occasion of his golden jubilee. This was fol- lowed by brief addresses of the same tenor on behalf of the teachers and pupils of the Sunday school. These addresses were delivered by two of the Sunday school pupile—Master Thomas P. MeGirr and Miss Nellie Sullivan—in a style whic! ould have ‘done credit to older and more experienced orators. Father Roccofort madea reply, in his pleasant way, feelingly acknowleding the kin iy Srectings and good wishes of his friends. Fatner Kelly, Brother Whelan and Messrs.

So far their campaign has been unusually quiet, The project to builda branch road of the Gettysburg and Harrisburg railroad from Har- risburg to Washington, which was agitated some time ago and in TuE Star, now seems to have assumed practical shape.

A meeting of the visitors was held and a tele- gram was sent to Mr. Blaine stating that the rumors referred to in his messuge were with- out foundation; that the enthusiasm of the re- ceptions was increasing and was equaled only by the appreciation of the guests. The tourists during the day visited Marshall Field’s gigantic establishment, where 1,200 clerks are employed; the board of trade build- ing, where they were received by President Seaverns; the far-famed auditorium, Stude- bukers’ carriage repository and the Chicago world’s fair headquarters, Here there was a general discussion of the Ve tee Chicago and Tampa fast-freight roa nu the evening there was a banquet at the Grand Pacific.

Mahone’s Mint Juleps. Washington Letter to the Boston Traveller. Gen, Mahone lives like a lord at Petersburg. He owns one of the finest estates in the south, and isa magnificent entertainer. A northern | politician who has recently been his guest said | to me today: “There is but one man in all this | broad country who knows how to make a mint | julep. He is Gen. Mahone’s body servant. His | juleps are works of art. Taking a long, thin ; glass he piles 1t up with layers of sliced iemon, | alternated with finely-crushed ice sprinkled with sugar and then pours just the right pro- Portion of the finest old liquor upon it. But the julep is by no means finished. On the top long sprays of tender mint, carefully inserted in the crushed ice, so that none of the stems or leaves is bruised, form a bouquet which ia as large ae a man’s fist. This, with two thin slices of cucumber, completes the work. The true southern mint julep, according to Mahone, should consist of the flavor of the liquor, lemon and sugar, cooled with ice, and the aroma, but not the taste of the mint. Mahone says that the man who would bruise mint ina julep would rob his own grandmother.” ———— +e0-____ A Mortal Joke.
