K. OF P. BALL LAST NIGHT-The ball
OF Baltimore Lodge Noe, X, ofP, at Tur,
ner Hall last night, was an event which
had been looked forward to with much
pleasure by a considerable portion Of our
population. The hall was crowded with
dancers all night long, and the manage
ment should feel highly gratiRed at their
success, The celebrated Mozart Band, OF
Pittsburgh, furnished the music, and Col,
Joe Christy was the prompter. A good
time was enjoyed by Gll-the music was
charming, and few could resist the invita-
ton to participate in the dance. The
gentlemRnly floor managers and ballet
masters made everybody comfortable.

Kerby's Joke.
From the Washington Repu blican ]

IFrom the Washington Republican
Kerby is young and giddy, and conse-
quently viii have his joke occasionally. As
he was walking with Wilkins the other
evening, lie observed quiet-looking col
ored man walking toward them. 1t occur
red to him that it would be exceedingly
funny to pretend to have warrant for this
man. He ste pped up to the individual and
informed him that he arrested him for steal
ing chickens. Tho man was surprised, and
declared that he hadn't stolen any chickens
for whole year, he hoped he wasn't q mig
ger If be bad. Kerby insisted until he
saw the man was getting mad, then with a
smile like that of man with boil on his
neck, he told him that it was only intended
as joke. The colored man seized Kerby
by the collar, and wanted to know if he
thought he could work on his feelings like
that for nothing. Kerby explained that he
had intended no harm, bnt the man shook
him until he thought his spinal column had
slipped down into his boots Then he
threw him down and dragged him over the
eobble stones. Wilkins attempted to inter-
fere, but the man jerked him down beside
Kerby, with the remark that he was a bad
colored man when he got mad. Wilkins
said that he thought he was. After work
ing his fingers throug their hair poking his
knees through their ribs the coIored man
tucked their orercoats under his arm and
left. Kerby and Wilkins went home, keep
ing close together, and telling each Other
where they felt hnrt the most.

A Valuable Book.

The discovery, at Louisville, Kentucky,
of a book which parties in Eengland would
give e5, 200 to get hold OF, is decided lit
erary sensation in this country, and may
yet prove source of political disturbance
in Great Britain. George Nv died in 1880
leaving no legitimate issue. He was sue
ceeded by his brother, the Duke of Clear
ance (the Sailor Prince) as William Nv.
This monarch died in 1887, and was sue
ceeded by his niece, Victoria, the only child
Of the Duke of Kent, fourth son of George
III. Now it is claimed that the book in
question contains documentary proof of the
legal marriage of George w. to Mrs. Fitz-
herbert, and also of the birth of son. If
this son is now alive, he is the rightful heir
to the English throne. The anxiety of the
present royal family to destroy all these
proofs Is natural enough, and is apparent
in the large rewards offered. If these high
personages desire their secrets well kept,
however, we would suggest that they get
possession Of this rare and dangerous vol
ume Immediately. If they allow any time
to elapse, myriad of American reporters
will have tumbled every secret from it's
pages, aud filled the land with conjeetures
as to the royal crisis in England.

q Young Artist in the House.
From the Detroit Free Press.

A Cass avenue father procured All outfit
of oils paints and brushes for his eight-year-
old son the other day, the lad having devel-
oped talent for drawing. Little was seen
of the boy for two or three days, and then
he took his father and mother by the hand
and led them into the parlor, and triumph
antly pointed to the proofs Of his artistic
skill. The gilt paper on the wall formed
fine ground work for him, and he had
painted horse over one door, a lion over
another, bird over another, and at inter-
walls along the walls he had brought out
fighting dogs, ships, fire engines, Indians
in full dress, and bears chasing boys. lie
had put a new border on the bay window
curtains, striped the legs Of the piano, and
lad preceded to touch up and improve GER
tain chromos and oil paintings hanging on
the walls. Father and mother gazed around
and the yonng artist anxiously waited for
them to pat him On the head and say they
were proud Of such son. They didn't pat
llinl--not very much. The father placed
the son ear between his thumb and finger,
and led him through several rooms to the
| woolsled, and what followed may be in
ferred from remark hy the boy aud over
heard by pedestrian: !. Oh father let MP
on me, and III never be an artist any
more. =

A New Grass.

After General Sherman made his marcl,
to the sea, all over the wide track of waste
and desolation that he made with the tramp
of his footmen and the iron feet of his cav
airy there sprung up a new and unknown
grass from the soil, which the farmers
called fisherman clover'' It would grow
up in the most unexpected places, and it is
said would root out Bermuda grass; and.
as strange similarity, we now hear that
after the Franco-Prussian war of 1S70-71.
in many districts of France new vegeta-
tion sprang up, evidently the result of the
invasion. 1t was believed that this vegc-
tation would become acclimatized, but
very few of the species introduced in this
way appear likely to continue to flourish.
In the Departments Of Loir and Loir-et-
cher, Of one hundred and sixty-three Ger
man species, at least one-h alf have already
disappeared, and the surviving species di-
minish in vigor each year. Scarcely five
or six species appear TO manifest any ten
dency to become acclimatzcd. Can any
of our naturalists account for it?-sacanaa1
