The home of Mr.

and Mrs. Geo. W. Tyler was the scene of rare festive occasion last when Mrs. Tylers' mother, Mrs.

Orrisa Brown, celebrated her 80th birthday. During the afternoon a number of ladies called and paid their respects to the guest of honor of the day, and she was the recipient of a large number of tokens of love and esteem, among them being beautiful bouquet of roses from the members of the Eastern Star. Refreshments were served, Mrs. Tyler being assisted by Mesdames Sherwood and Handy. a In the evening a six o'clock dinner was served to members of the family only, covers being laid for 12.

Those who were present from out of town were Judge and Mrs. Calvin L. Brown and daughter' of Minneapolis. Miss Margaret Brown is the youngest grandchild of Mrs. Brown and as her birthday occurred on the next I day, March 4th, the two celebrated together.

Mrs. Orrisa Brown was born in Goshen, New Hampshire, on March 3d, 1829. In 1850 she became the wife of John H. Brown, and they lived in Manchester, New Hamphsire until in May five years later when they moved to Minnesota where they settled in Shakopee and made their home for 16 years. In January, 1871, Mr.

Brown came to Willmar where he and his oldest son, Horace founded the first newspaper of the village, the Republican. He edited this until the latter part of the following year when he sold out to Frank Daggett and devoted his time to his law business exclusively. He was appointed judge of the 12th Judicial district at the time of its creation in 1875, and this position he held until his death, which occurred on Jan. 20, 1890. Seven children blessed the union of Judge and Mrs.

Brown. With the exception of Horace who died at Argyle in 1894, they are all living. They are Mrs. Geo. W.

Tyler, Mrs. C. H. Sherwood and Mrs. F.

G. Handy of this city, W. Lewis of New Haven, Frank A. of Benson, and Calvin Luther, who since January 1900 has been Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Minnesota. Mrs.

Brown bears the years so far allotted to her with ease. In spite of her advanced age she is well and active, and as she is still youthful in spirit she will no doubt live to see a good many more family birthday gatherings in her honor.

The Willmar boys played fine individually but what they need is team work. They are going to Morris Friday for a return game and hope to render abetter account of themselves. After the game Friday night the Boys' and Girls' basket ball teams gave a reception for the Morris boys at Hornbeck's. Refreshments were served about 10:30 and at a late.hour the party broke up.
