NOTES AND OF ERIES.

| A Dlllet-QOuX Wnlcn reached US yesterday
reads as follows ''You are respectfully in
vited to attend Social Party to be given at
Arlington Hall on next Wednesday evening,
May IT, Dancing to begin at clock. Com
mittee of Invitation" We are very thankful
for this invitation and we hope may see no
restraining cause for not lending the weight
of our influence to the gayeties of the Occa-
sion. 1t being a possible thing, however,
that we cannot be present we will take this
timely opportunity for saying that we quite
approve of dancing if it be done in modera-
ton. And speaking of dancing we are re-
minded to make the announcement officially,
that the party for the benefit of the Public
School at the Glenbrook Will take place on
Thursday evening, the 18th. Those attend
| ing this entertainment will do 50 with the very
hearty concurrence of the MORNING APPEAL.
| The cause of education is greatly to be
! cherished and any movement looking to the
! enlargement of the area of letters should
stimulate the active cooperation of every
man at the GlenbroOk besides awakening
sense of enthusiasm among the mothers, the
daughters and the maturing youth of that
small city of ''the unsalted sea" Let Glen
brook do her duty and the problem of ''what
shall we do with our childrenF' will come
nearer than ever to a salutary solution 80.
Not widely apart from this subject is the fact
that Schoolmaster General Kelly departed
hence last night for a week among the literary
enthusiasts of Churchill county. 1t is
said that the distinguishing trait between
man and the brute creation is the capacity,
in the former, for laughter. The dog makes
a very cOmmendable effort in the direction of
this mirthful demonstration by the wagging
of his tail. A gentle undulatory motion of
that appendage may be taken for smile;
more decided movement of the member is to
be interpreted into gentle exclamation;
while the rapid and vehement action of the |
tail is Enthusiastically a hearty guftaw. But |
at best this is a mere pantOmlme. There Is |
nothing in all this wagging which is up to the |
contagious mirthfulness of sympathetic |
human snort, coming umestrained and |
irrepressibe froT .4e .u.. of the comical |
capacities of M ... .ulu I.lr We witnessed |
casualty on Sunday ,lc4 very near
depriving a certain u dog of even the |
circumscribed capacity for initiating the |
human laugh with which Providence has
invested the canine family. Our friend
Doctor Benton has a coach-dog. The Doctor
having Just started on journey up Carson
street, this dog manifested his joy by jump
ing and capering III front of the horses. Just
opposite Mr.. Farrelrs bar was bulldog
When his severe eye rested upon that bespot-
ted distant relative of his, the blood of his
ancestors boiled within him. 1t was a
thought an impulse, mad rush and an
attack. There was a yelp and then a roar.
The first proceeded from the frightened coach
dog, The latter was emitted by his baffied
assailant. Events followed one another with
quick succession, but they who looked the
most sharply detected the situation in all its
intricate phenomena. Scarce had the bull
dog made his assault when one of the wheels
of the buggy settled down upon his tail, am
putating the end of that misguided adorn-
ment i'll the most summary and unmistakable ,
manner. Then We saw, with newly
curiosity, that dog S tail may also
express dissatisfaction, surprise, astonish-
ment and disgust. We never saw any crea- +
rure human or otherwise, exhibit a more !
painful sense of bewilderment and humila-
ton than were painted on every inch of that
logs tail and in all the lineaments of his
face, he stood there watching
5he retreating form of that buggy.
All thought of conflict had departed out of
lis mind and . the big wars that make am
)itiOn virtue had suddenly become uninter-
sting to him as to the most peaceful and
harmless lamb. With a motion which betOk-
med an inexpressible depth of sorrow, repent
nee and profound dismay, he stole one bitter
eproachful look at the hard face of the street,
mother of ill-disguised curiosity which far
utweighed all unworthy thought of mere
mystical pain, upon his disfgured and bleed .
NC tail, and moved away from the scene, !
orrowful, doWncast and broken hearted $500.
dr. Boskowitz begs to say to his debtors that
is customary playfulness does not reach out
0 or include his call for the payment of out
landing Indebtedness. He proposes always r
} keep on hand for the benefit of his numor-
us and discriminating patrons the very best
ares in his line of traffic. To this end he
lust have money. He pays cash and pays
out of his receipts 1t is mistake to sup
ose that he pumps up his ready money from g
)me secret inexhaustible well. 1t comes, u
Ike eggs, in the natural way. So we join
i'm in this very reasonable request for speedy
sttlements. $500. Controller Hobart, who did
