[. 10 TUESDAY EVENING THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUENAL. 3 SEPTEMBEE 2, 1902. In Social Circles The most interesting event of the day 'was the celebration of the golden wedding of Dr. and Mrs. Henry Waito at their home on Hawthorno avenue. Dr. and Mrs. Waite have been residents of Min- neapolis sinoe 1877 and they have a host of friends in the city, who gathered this afternoon to offer their congratulations. Both the bride and bridegroom wen; born In England. Dr. Waite's home was in Nottingham and Mrs. Waite, whose maid- en name was Ann E'lis, v>as a native of Grantham. They wore marled in 31. Wolfram's church, one of t>-} oldest churches in England, in Granthawj, and came to the United States in 1857. Dr. Waite is still in active practice and. though both he and his Wife have passed the three score years and ten they bear them lightly and with gracious dignity. They have six children, J-I. S. Waite, Mrs. A. R. Rogers. Mrs. Mary Hedge. Mrs. C. S. Watts. Misses Nellie A. Waite and Nettie E. Waite, all of whom reside in Minne- apolis, and there are seven grandchildren. Two years ago Dr. Waite revisited his old home In England and brought back with him the portraits of himself and his wife which were painted at the time of their marriage and they were shown to their friends to-day. The Waite residence was all aglow with yellow flowers and goldenrod, daisies, asters and golden-glow were used In pro- fusion in the hall and parlors. The man- tel was banked with the sunny blossoms and great clusters of them were in every available corner. The lights were shaded in yellow and cast a golden haze over the aged bridal couple as they received their guests. It was a most informal affair and the family friends came and went without the formality of a large receiving group. Frappe and confections were* served in the dining-room, where fifty bride roses nodded their white heads over the table and more roses banked the mantel. This evening a family party wilt be entertained and about thirty-five guests will be present. Miss Mamie A. Cross and George N. Watkins were married -yesterday after- noon at the home of the officiating min- ister. Rev. C. J. Tannar. Mr. and Mrs. Watkins will be at home at 323 E Fif- teenth street. Mrs. J. M. Baltuff gave a quilting party Saturday afternoon at her home on Clin- ton avenue in honor of Miss Anna Nack, a bride of the month. The rooms Were bright with sweet peas, nasturtums and golden glow.

"' ~ The breeding of inumerable hosts of dragon flies, or devil's darning needles, as they ar« called by country boys In some, parts of th« United States, in order that these insects may extirpate the mosquitoes, is now advocated in certain quarters. Are we to have dragon fly .stock farms, with annual sales of wean- lings of the choicest pedigrees? Alas, it ia to be feared that, no matter what we do, we shall have the mosquitoes always wit^i us, like the poor. Nevertheless, the swarma of these peste can undoubtedly be lessened in numbers ajid in the evil which they -work. RUBBER FROM CORN Detroit News-Tribune.

The breeding of inumerable hosts of dragon flies, or devil 's darning needles, as they ar« called by country boys In some, parts of th« United States, in order that these insects may extirpate the mosquitoes, is now advocated in certain quarters. Are we to have dragon fly .stock farms, with annual sales of wean­lings of the choicest pedigrees? Alas, i t ia to be feared that, no matter what we do, we shall have the mosquitoes always wit^i us, like the poor. Nevertheless, the swarma of these peste can undoubtedly be lessened in numbers ajid in the evil which they -work.
