vaded by surprise party is probably the
finest piece of acting which people ever under

contemplated invasion some ten days ahead
and begins to arrange his house, much after
the manner of mariner, who claes every
thing down and braces the main stays in an
ticipation of tempest At 8 o'clock a ring
is heard at she door. The parson, hastily
throwing a delapidated dressing gown over his
Sunday clothes to assume an appearance of
l1eglsgee, goes to the door with the air of a man
who expected to be shot down by an assassin,
or called upon to 60 twelve miles in the coun-
try to marry couple for FIVE dollars and pay
his own expenses. He sees the porch IA
of people with bundles and baskets in their
hands.

Presently a small boy, dressed in his new

looms piled up on the counters, laces, drap-
cries, illusions and elegant toilette materials,
snch as only the rarest skill can produce

SURPRISE PARTY.-Last evening the resi-
dence of the Rev. Geo. r. Davis, Rector OF
St. Peters Church, was the scene of a sur.
| prise party. Of course the reel pients were
very much astonished. The guests, num-
bering over a hundred people, filled the
house to its utmost capacity, and made
the mselves very jolly, with dancing. cards,
and other social enjoyments. About mid
night substantial collation. was served. A
whitfield purse was presented to Mrs.
Davis, and a set of handsomely bound
Dickens works in sixteen volumes to the
Rector. The affair was pronounced "a
real old fashioned surprise party" by all
who attended. The recipients desire,
through the APPEAL, to return their hearty
thanks for the pleasure Of SO much good
company at once, and also for the substan-
tial assurances of their regard.
FIRE ALARh.-About O'Clock yesterday
morning tho whistle of the machine shops
blew a prolonged blast which awoke nearly
every man, woman and child in Carson. At
appears that some tagging which had been
placed over the boiler to dry caught on fire.
and the man who attempted to blow the
whistle pulled the lever down too far, causing
it to stick. The whistle, therefore, kept up
its note of alarm until some one arrived whe
knew how to shut off tn, steam. The fire
was sxtinguished by the application of a few
pals of water.
CHURCH SERVICES. There were special
services at the Catholic and Episcopal churches
on Sunday. Both places furnished extra lnu

Reaching the Pole In q Balloon.

Commander Cheyns, Of the British
Navy, Is still s~ndesvoring to carry out
his plan Of reaching the North Polo BY
means OF balloons. A London commit
tee, consisting OF the Dean Of westmin-
stsr, the Master Of the Temple. Dr..
Vaughan, the Minister Of Finance for
Canada. and seventy members OF Parlia-
msnt aud scientific men, has been
formed, and over $1,000 collected to-
wards the purpose OF carrying out the
new venture, the ultimate cost OF which
is estimated at $50. 900. The PROPOSE
ton is to send nj . ship to the farthest
attainabls point, then to form outside
stations by the guidance Of which the
wind currents could be utilized at vari-
Gus heights as curves Of sailing, by
which the balloon might reach within
o or less practicable distance OF the
Pole. aud the completion Of the journey
made by such sledging arrangements as
could be conveyed by the three or four
balloons that would constitute the nrial
feet steering by trailing ropes. BY
abandoning some OF the balloons and
stores and using their remaining gas to
all completely the one or two balloons
by which the return journey to the ship
could be accomplished. the party, 1t 10
claimed. would be brought back In
safety. Commander Cheyne recently
laid all his plans before the Aeron-
autical Society Of London, and in the
discussion which followed the project
was supported by such practical aron.
