Society Of ST. Vincent De Paul propose
Giving ball on St. Patrick's Day for the
rurpose OF liquidating the balance of The
ALI incurred in builling the society s
hosIita. and also for the purpose Of re-.
deeming that binding from the judgment
sale under which it has temporarily
mass, d from the possession OF the So
rety. There will be an early announce.
meilt Of the place in which the ball will

RuSAwAY.-An exciting runaway oc-
CURED yesterday morning. but fortunate.
" no great damage was done. D. G..
Clark was delivering some goods at a
house on High street. leaving his pair Of
horses standing in the mean time. From
some cause the horses started while Mr..
Clark was in the house, and ran along
High to Ely street, down Ely to Main
street, and down the last named thor
ouehfsre to q point near Sherwood's
lumber yard, when the tongue of Clark's
wagon canght in large lumber wagon
and the runaways were stopped. The
neck yoke was broken and the tongue
fell 10 the ground. the team making good
time, and the tongue upon the ground
plowed its way without meeting any i'm.
pediment. 1t is strange that some dam
age was not done.
BUCKLEY AGAIN. Martin Buckley and
his dulcina are sgain in trouble. 1t
seems that every community is afflicted
with at least enc such couple, and it ia
well that such characters are distributed
somewhat equally, for no community
could stand its quota, and any commu.
nifty wholly without snch people would
get along too smoothly. A few days
ago Buckley beat the woman most nm.
mercifuily and yesterday morning Jus.
tice Van Hagen imposed fine upon
Buckley. which, with costs added,
amounted to $50. Buckley, not having
that sum about him, was sent to the
County Jail for rs days.
KENO The large crowd which nightly
assemblies at Hamiltons saloon, to try
their fortunes a: the game Of keno, would
raise presumption. at least, that there
was some loose coin in the pockets OF the
Phoebe people, notwithstanding the crv
of hard times. The entertainment ia
opened every evening by sweet. soul.
stirring music Professor Mitchell and
his violin. Geo. W. Piece and his banjo,
and Bob Stevens. youth who performs
splendidlv on the cornet. The keno
game affords means Of passing away an
hour or two very PLEASANTLY, and thst,
too. with the chance 81 increasing ones
purse. and with little expense at the
worst.

Starry Might; but that was a mistake
the lady appearing in that character
being Mrs. Helen L. Bail. Her rich md
elegant costume was the emanation OF
her own good taste and the work Of her
own hands.
\ou! Dos'r.-Mauy man has lost a
good bargain by waiting for better one.
Michaes is offering good bargains in
cigars and tobacco, but II You wait for
even better bargains than be now offers,
