Entertained This Afternoon By Mrs. Albert F. Wray.

Two papers composed the afternoon's program, both of which concerned modern day writers and their works. Mrs. Stanley E. Bowman read the first, which was an explanation of the book, "Treasures of the Humble," whose author was the subject of the second paper -- Maurice Maeterlinck. The second paper, which in reality was a biography, was read by Mrs. Isaac Carter. Both papers were expressive of diligent work on the part of the compositors and were extremely interesting.
Following the program a social hour was enjoyed by the ladies present.

Wild West Shows and Hear-

----------
(From Wednesday's Daily.)
Since leaving home a few weeks ago, he has been with the Riggs Wild West Shows and they have been playing in Illinois, West Virginia, Ohio, and this week the aggregation is at Huntington, attending the county fair at that place. He received information that he was reported to have been killed one day last week and, after the news reached him, he immediately boarded a train and came home to spend a day or two with his mother.
He is very anxious to find the person that started the rumor of his death. He intends returning to Huntington in the next two or three days.
