OF the many entertainments given during the

resented. No less than thousand visitors were
in attendance during the evening, and more
brilliant gathering or more enjoyable and AMI
mated scene has seldom been witnessed in the
city. Many strolled leisurely from one studio to
another, viewing the later works Of the artists;
others gathered in groups and engaged in social
converse, while the MUSHROOM was hlled to
overlooking throughout the evening. The exhi-
bition of paintings was the finest given by the
club, and all the arrangements for the reception
more complete than at either Of the former ones.
A number Of ladies and gentlemen contributed
much to the enjoyment of the evening, by render
ing some fine musical selections, among whom
were Mr.. and Mrs. Pearson, Miss Weygate, Mr..
Eberbaeh, Mr.. Fries, Mr.. Paris, the artist; Mr..

Sveepine the Streets,

Mr.. l. p. wright's contract for sweeping the
avenues and streets Of the city expired yesterday
and he has consequently withdrawn his sueepers
from the work. Mr.. Andrew Gleason, the sue
ceediDg contractor, now begins operations. He
has i've machines with which 10 start, and ex-
poets three more next week. These are Of the
Edison patent, and are in use in several Of the
Eastern cities and have proven acceptable to
those working them. They are both lighter and
less powerful than the sweepers Of the late con-
tractor, but thought to be equally serviceable.
The cost Of this work under Mr.. Gleason's con-
tract limited to not exceed 900 for the year
ever was let, but is nearly 10000 less than any
sum previously paid.

A DRUNKEN ROUGH.
He Brutality Assaults Two Men.

Peter Donnelly keeps low groggsry at the
corner Of Tenth and streets northwest, and has
been up in the Police Court several times for
fighting, but the administration Of justice dealt
out to him has proved Of little good. He sells
wretched whisky, drinks the vile stuff himself
and. becoming Infatuated, wants to maui and kill
everybody within reach. Yesterday evening"
being again loaded with this belligerent alcohol,
he entered his den, where two men, named Chas
Bogue and John o. Brien. had just taken drink.
Ordering them out with an oath, he seized bar
Of iron, and struck first one and then the other on
the head with it, INJECTING severe wounds, which
bled prOfusely. Officer Henkle came upon the
scene, and escorted Donnelly to the Central
guard house. where he was locked up to await
hearing before Judge Smell. He wanted to know
in clustering spirit how much would release
him for the night. Lieut.. Skippon concluded that
he would be safest in a cell, and there kept him.
This man has got of frequently with fine. Prob
ably six months in jail would prove beneficial
lesson. Let him 20 there.

A MILD WINTER.-lhc effect of Il mild
winter on the bills OF mortality is verv
clearly shown in the returns presented to
the board Of health, Yesterday. The num-
bcr of deaths reported. last week, with a
mean temperature of 800, is l60 less than
the number reported during the same peri
OIL last year, when the average marked bv
the thermometer was 10 lower. While
the general health of the city is thus ex-
ceptlonally good the number of deaths
from dlphthcrla maintains Il rate which is
simply mOnstrOus. During the eight
weeks between November 81 and January
II, there have been 6.J6 deaths from diph-
theria-an average of 50 per week More
than half of these have occurred in tene-
ment-hou>cs, and il is curious to notice
that twO-thrdS of the whole number have
occurred on the first and second floors of
dwellings. 1t seems obvious that the
lower strata of air in our ihckly populated
nclghborhoods favor in Il very remarkable
degree the development of diphthtric poi
son, and ii may be safely inferred that this
Is quite us much due to the vititted atmo>-
