Wilcox of Chicago, who is traveling in Mathews, was among the number and contributed much to the gayety of the evening by his humorous stories, witty remarks and fine singing. All departed at a late hour, thanking Mr. Miller for the night’s entertainment and asking him to have another such affair in the near future.
