A Modern idea.

Leap year has suggested one ofthosc agreeable
Innovations on the conventional customs of So
ciety which has won the approving smile Of the
gentle sex; is sure to be honored less in its
breach than its observance, and will assuredly be
delightful and pleasing to those who give as to
those who receive. In accordance with this sug-
gestion q few gentlemen in this city threw their
psrlors open Monday evening, the Sd, and were
Eat home" to receive the visits and Fluctuations
of the New Year from their lady friends and also
acquaintances from New York, Baltimore and
other cities who were here for the holidays. Con-
spicuous among these reunions was that given by
Mr.. J. w. Cole and q select party of friends
among whom were Mr.. ]. A. Emerson, of Ark
ansas; Mr.. Kennedy, Of New Orleans, and Messrs.
George Washington, W. Archer and W. r. Hill.
These gentlemen were pleasantly engaged from
5 to o'clock receiving and entertaining their
callers and certainly these were some Of the most
exquisitely dressed ana haantifni ladies 1t has
been our good fortune to see in Washington. 1t
may perhaps be yenturing out of ones depth Tor
the writer to attempt to describe the elegant and
unique tolettes Of the ladies' for nothing short OF
the pen OF a Jennie June could do justice to the
subject. But among those who were unusually
attractive may be mentioned Miss Hattie Stew
art, Miss Wormley, Mrs. DR.. Augusta, Mrs. Ma
son, Of Arkansas; Miss Moten, Miss Matte LlN-
renee and party, Miss Tompkins, Miss Ella Som
erville, Of Mobile; Miss Pennie Cook and Miss
Lou Matthews. The rooms were brilliantly
lighted and made sweetly refreshing by the
chaste disposition OF rare towerS, exotics and
other floral decorations. The refreshment GouIa

Girls Reform School.

To the Editor OF the National Republican:
SIR: Since you are we'll aware OF the urgent need
of reform school for girls in the District of COlum
bIa, you will surely take pleasure in correcting an
error or two in your local report Of yesterday.
The bill introduced in the Senate by Hon. Henry
L. Dawes, OF Massachusetts,, was not to ''incor-
porate" this institution. Ths: was done, and an
appropriation for the purchase of land was made
by the District Legislature, in answer to the ap-
peal Of q large number Of our best citizens. Nor
IL the pending bill in Congress merely ian effort to
save females" as the heading Of the above named
local declares. Our memorial distinctly states
that the purpose is TO prevent the frequent mur-
der Of infants the streets Of the national capital
by young, deserted, despSiring mothers who have
nowhere 10 go, to prevent the alarming increase
of criminals and paupers and to give the outcast
IN opportunity for reformation. But better still,
As our friends Of the New Iork Sorosis said In
their eloquent appeal to the Forty-third Congress
in behalf of this bill, ait is not only to save our
fallen sisters, but to protect brothers from the
temptation Of easy opportunity to prey upon the
weak, the ignorant and the heIpless.r
Since nothing s SO expensive and ruinous to the
Individual and the State vics, no friend o. re-
trenehmept and reform will say q word or cast
vote against the girls refOrm-schsOl bill.

The Waco Disaster.

Supervising Inspector Low yesterday trans
mitted his report to the Secretary Of the Treas
ury, respecting the mysterious burning Of the
City of Waco of the Galveston Bar, on the night
of November S, 1875. The burning of the Waco
was one Of the most mysterious disasters that has
recently occurred. Although the vessel was
lying near to several others, not q soul on her
escaped after the fire broke out, nor las a word
Of Intelligent explanation been uttered as to the
cause Of the calamity. After the Bremerhayen
disaster, It was claimed by some people that the
destruction Of the Waco wasi..attributable to the
same cause, and as proof 1t was said an explosion
was the first iRtimation that anything was wrong,
and that the mast, which was picked up at sea
showed that the fire explosion took place below
decks, and not above, as had been claimed by
those who charged that petroleum was the cause.
Mr.. loves report utterly destroys this theory,
for he says there is no doubt in his mind that the
fire originated under decks from some cause and
burned q considerable time before being discoy-
cred" The agents of the line say there was moth
ing combustibIe stored in the hold. Mr.. Low ad-
vances no theory. However, he draws attention
to the unsatisfactory and underlined laws regulat-
ing the transportation of petroleum, and suggests
an instant remedy.-NetO York Commercial! Adrer-

Of Public Interest.

For thirty years there has been noimprovement
in the composition Of porous plaster. The re-
cent discovery Of Capcine and its addition to an
improved porous plaster has introduced to the
consumers and the public an article Of progress.
The objection TO the ordinary article is its slow
action. BENsoN's CAPCINE Porous PLASTER
oy ercomes this great objection by effecting In a
few hours what the ordinary porous plaster &C
ccmplishes in days snd weeks OF continuous wear.
BENsoN's CAPCINE Porous PLAsTERs are pre-
ftrred TO all others on the following grounds:
First-Their composition Is of an improved ma
ture, and combined with the recently
discovered vegetable principle-Cap-
cine-wbicb, as powerful and unerrin2
specific, has never been eCualed In the
history of true medicine. They operate
with astonishing vigor, bring almost i'm
mediate relief, and cure more speedily
and with greater certainty than any
known plaster, liniment or compound.
Second-They possess all the merit Of the ord
nary porous plaster with above addition,
and will cure all the various dithculties
for which they have been esteemed In as
many hours as the ordinary article
effects in days and weeks Of continuous
wear.
Thrd-They are genuine pharmaceutical pre-
paration. skilliully combined, Of the
hignest order OF merit, purely vegetable,
contain neither metal nor mineral
poisons, indorsed by physicians, and are
in no sense patent medicine.

A HACK RIDE.

Married on Seven Cents-The Driver Wants
His Fee.
He had had good deal Of trouble in getting
the copnubicl knot tied, and the hackman ought
to have been light on him, but he was not. He
hailed conveyance early last evening, and load.
ing himself and friends and intended in it, stipu
lated with the driver to pay him two dollars and
half for taking the party to preacher and
back. The driver gathered up the lines and
drove eff. Preacher after preacher was visited,
but were all too much engaged. Finally the
party found reverend gentleman, whom they
hustled into a shoemaEer's shop where the i'm
portant ceremony was performed. Again the
party turned back, and after the bride and friends
had descended from the vehicle the hack driver,
with customary Promptness, put his hand into
the hack for his fee. The bridegroom said that
he had nothing less than ten dollars and would
pay the driver when he got 1t changed, and with
a bland smile and patroniZing air began to
insinuate himself out Of the hack, but that
wouldn't do for the jehu.
With q smile even more bland he wanted to see
the ten dollars, and as it did not make It's ap-
pearance, he banged the door, shutting the BRIDE
groom mp, and drove off. The unfortunate man
made several attempts to get out, but the horses
were lasbed to their fullest speed and he CON-
cluded to go TO the end Of his unwilling ride. He
went to the end, which was at the Fourth precinct
station, where LIE was committed to the charge OF
the station keeper. Upon searching the man the
amount of seven cents was found in his pockets,
and he was led back to the cell to pass mis- we'd
ding night in melancholy meditation.
