BALL AT AMnroEs & KRuG's.
The ball or New Years Eve
at Mr.. Krug's wastolerabiy well
attended, there being a number
from BRENNAN. among them
representative of the BANNER.
A fine supper was served, the
music was excellent and the
dance was participated in until
daylight did appear.
New YEARS DAY passed off
very quietly, there was no de-
monstration OF any kind, no
calls made during the day +; not
more than the usual quantity of
bug juice destroyed and no par
ticular observance OF the day
| other than the closing of the
banking houses. A few of the
| stores closed in the afternoon,
but the majority OF them kept
open all day.
Water uAUL.-Two negro
gentlemen, who, a few days ago.
were unceremoniorsly arrested
on warrants. charging them
with gambling, were. ex-
amined before Justice Hynes,
one on Monday and the other
yesterday. As there was no ev-
idence that they had been play
lug "keards," or in fact they
knew the Jack Q, Spades from
the Gneen of Diamonds, they
were discharged.
NEW YEAR's EVE was duly
observed in this city. The most
notable was the social party
given by Hon. Seth Shepard, at
the rooms in the GRADER build
ing. The company commenced
arriving abont eight o'clock and
by nine quite large number OF
ladies and gentlemen were
present. The evening was pass
ed in social conversation, varied
by dancing. An elegant supper
was served and the festivities
were kept up until the new year
was several hours old. The oc-
easion was heartily enjoyed by
those fortunate enough to be
present.
The Temperance Society had
a supper at their hall, where a
pleasant time was had until the |
new year arrived. About TWEEN
ty new members were received. |
Our German fellow-citizens |
gave grand ball at the Gerna- |
MIA club rooms. 1t was largely |
attended and highly enjoyed.
PsI7ILEGED CHARACTERS
There are a dozen or two privi-
legged characters in town and
country, who apparently, have
q carte Naacke to raise Hail
Columbia" ad. lib. The police,
as a general thing, are not
''thar" when anything is going
On. Arrests are occasionally
nade, to use slang term, by
way CT a slant" Tie parties
are ct once released and no more
is heard of tie ease until the
same jig is danced again, when
the process is repeated. II the
ordinances mean anything, they
should be strictly enforced with
out fear or favor. This thing OF
picking up fellows from "out in
the post oaks" and obstreperous
negroes is all very well. but
should not be done TO the e1clu-
sion of others who are equally
guilty. Darkness covers d null
titude of sins, end it is only
fair to say that most of the
devilment is done after nightfaIl.

Where dreamy mlSts of summer float
