The social hop given at McClure's Hall
last night by the members of the Philoma-
thean Society, was indeed very enjoyable
entertainment. The attendance was large,
the hall was spacious, and Bush's band dis
coursed the music.
The managers had taken good care TO
see that nothing had been neglected which
could add to the comfort of their visitors.
At the usual time dancing commenced, and
it was not until the wee sma' hoHs began
to creep on that the gay throng dispersed.

Miss MARY LOUISE HULBURT, beau
tiful and accomplished daughter of the
Rev. Victor Hurlburt, of Stone Ridge, New
York, met with a sudden and painful death
a fortnight since. She sang in the gallery,
and the last notes of the first hymn she
sang with great clearness and precision. As
she touched her seat she threw her arms
around her brothers neck, blind and un-
conscious, and died soon after, her death
being attributed to the breaking of blood
vessel in the brain, superinduced by the ex-
ertiOn of singing.

The Aquarium.

ONE of the first principles in construct
ing tank for an aquarium IS to give the
water the greatest possible exposure to
the air. The simple rectangular form is
the best. This is generally constructed
OF iron and glass; the iron should be ia
PANIED and the glass French plate to in
sure brilliaDcy and strength. The
breadth and height of the tank should be
about One-half of the length. Cheap
tanks can be made of wood and glass,
the frame and bottom being OF wood and
the sides Of glass. In order to make the
joints water-tight care must be taken to
get proper aquarium putty or cement.
The following is good recipe: Put an
eggcupful OF oil and four ounces tar to
one pound resin: melt over a gentle fire.
Test 1t to see if it has the proper consist
ency when cooled; if it has not heat
longer or add more resin and tar. Pour
the cement into the angles in heated
state, but not boiling hot, as It would
crack the glass. The cement will be firm
in a few minutes. Then tip the aqua
rum IN different position ana treat d
second anglo likewise, and so on. Inc
cement does not poison the water. 1t
is not advisable to make the aquarium
OF great depth; about eight inches OF
water is sufficient. In regard to the
light great care must be taken. Too
much often causes blindness, and is COM
mon source of disease. The light fish re-
ceive in rivers comes from above; and
an aquarium should be constructed so as
to form no exception to this rule. All
cross lights should be carefully avoided,
at least if the light is very strong. Never
place the aquarium in front of a window
so that the light passes through it; for,

Lets keep dark about buyin' one, and

Says |, " You must love to be haunted

Says he, I'D love to fool EN-"

looked disappointed, told him it wasn't
my way to tell everything | knew. ]
shouldn't say nothin' about havin' bought
one.
So we kept still, and there was half a
dozen fellers follerin' us round all the
time almost, into stores and groceries
and the manty-maker's. And they would
stop on the sidewalk and argue with US
about their organs and pianos. One fel-
Ter, tall, slim chap, he never let Josiah
out of his sight minute, and he followed
him after he went after his horse, and
walked by the side Of the wagon clear
down to the store where | was, a arguin'
all the way about his piano. Josiah had
bought number of things, and left 'em
to the store, and when we got there, there
stood another one, the organ man, by the
side Of the things, just like a Watchdog
He knew Josiah would have to come to
get 'em, and he could get the last word
with him.
Amongst other things Josiah had
bought barrel of salt, and the piano
Teller that had stuck so tight to Josiah
all day offered to help Josiah on with it.
| And the organ man, not going to be out
| done by the other, he offered, too
Josiah kinder winked to me, and then
he held the old mare and let 'em lift.
They wasn't used to such kind of work,
! and it fell back on 'em once or twice
and most sauashed 'em; but they hipped
| to, and lifted again and finally got it on
| but they were completely tuckered out.
And then Josiah got in and thanked
em for the liftin', and the organ man, a
wipin' the sweat often his face that had
| started out in his hard labor, said che
should be down tomorrow mornings" and
the piano man, pantin for breath, told
Josiah not to make up his mind till he
came He should be down that night if
he got rested enough
And then Josiah told 'em "that he
should be glad to see 'em down visitin'
any time; but be had just bought a
organ"
don't know but what they would
have laid holt of Josiah if they hadn't
been so tuckered out; but as it was they
was too beat out to look anything but
sneakin'. And so we drove off
