A SOCIAL SENSATION IN WASHING
TON.

The latest social sensation, says the
Washington correspondent of the Boston
Herald, is that caused by the arrest of a
young man named ST. Clair, otherwise
known as "Sis" Sinclair. This young man
found great enjoyment in attending the
numerous fashionable balls, parties, and
receptions given here during the present
Winter, attired in the clothing Of fashion
able belle of the season. His "get up was
somewhat remarkable, and, strange to say,
he played his difficult part so well that he
was not discovered until Wednesday even
ing last, while in attendance at the socia-
BILE given by the Minnesota State Associa-
ton at Masonic Temple. There he at
tended, and attracted much attention,
being, as it were, one of the leading bellies
Of the evening. He was arrested soon
after leaving the Temple. He claims to be
but fifteen years cid, but his father says
he is twenty. His dress was Of the latest
fashion, and he wore four-button white
kid gloves. His hair concentrations were
procured at the same place where other
bellies procure them, and were decidedly
tasteful. He managed his train with ele-
gance and ease. He has very feminine
appearance, and as a lady, would be called
very good looking. In the pocket of the
dress was found note signed by a South
ern and somewhat obscure member of Con-
gress, who has failed to be reelected, re-

to the ladies' gallery" besides three letters.

into an angry fit of Mysteries.
Some months later, Dallas had occasion
to think of his unkind speeches when his
wife lay dead in his darkened home, and
for while he was truly miserable with
that blank loneliness we 81 feel when one
we have grown accustomed to seeing daily

noticing the change, remarked, in pleasant
little asides, "that she expected to get him
the second time, and they hoped she would
have her labor for her pains"
1t was late one August afternoon when
Dallas intercepted Amber coming home
early from her Saturdays work. He does

Lavender.

How prone we are to hide and hoard
Each little token love has stored,
To tell of happy hours;
We lay aside with tender care
A tattered book, curl of hair,
A bunch OF faded flowers.
When Death has led with pulseless hand
Our darlings to the silent land,
Awhile we sit bereft
But time goes on; anon we rise.
Our dead being buried from our eyes,
We gather what is left.
The books they loved, the songs they sang,
The little flute whose music rang
So cheeriulIy of old;
The pictures we have watched them paint,
The last-plucked flowers, with odor faint.
That fell from fingers cold.
We smooth and fold with revcrent care
The robes they, living, used to wear;
And painful pulses stir,
And DER the relics of our dead,
With bitter rain of tears, we spread
Pale purple lavender.
And when we come in after years,
With only tender April tears
On cheeks once white with care,
To look at treasures put away
Despairing on that far-off day,
A subtle scent is there.
Dew-wet and fresh we gathered them,
These fragrant flowers-now every stcm
Is bare of all its bloom.
TeSr-wet and sweet we strewed them here
TO lend our relics sacred, dear,
Their beautiful perfume,
That scent abides on book and lutte,
On curl, and flower, and with its mute
But eloquent appeal,
It wins from us deeper sob
For our lost dead-a sharper throb
Than we are wont to feel.
It whispers of the long ago,
Its love, its loss, its aching woe,
And buried sorrows stir;
And tears like those we shed of old
Roll down our checks as we behold
Our faded lavenender.

WAS THERE GLACIAL MAE IN

Was there a glacial man in America
To this question the answer is distinct.
though given with the reserve which the
subject justifies. For the best that is
known, we are chiefly indebted to DR.. G.
C. Abbott, who was the first to call atten-
ton to the stone implements found in the
glacial deposits of the Delaware valley.
These implements are chiefly of argellite,
though examples of flint occur at higher
levels. They have been found at the Bluffs
near Trenton, both in position where de.

The Chinese Theater.

In the north of China every town and
every large village boasts of its perma.
nent theater, while the inhabitants of
other villages, too small to be so fortu-
nate, find little difficulty in extemporiz-
ing theaters of mat and bamboo on any
chance arrival of an itinerant troop of
actors. AS long as the visit of these
wandering players last, the people Of
the district give themselves up to the en-
joyment of the holiday. Early each
morning the roads from all the country
round may be seen crowded with peo-
pie, the poorer ones on foot, and, If in
the north of China, the Weather classes
on mules or in carts, all tending to the
one point of attraction; the women gay
in blue. red or green silks, and the men
in their best and brightest attire. five
follow this pleasure seeking crowd, we
enter theater built in the form of q
parallelogram, at one end of which is q
plat form, generally, though not always,
as wide as the building. The platform
is divided breadthwise bya wooden par
tition with two entrances, the front part
forming the stage, and the rear portion
serving the purposes of green room,
property room and abode of the troupe.
The body of the theater, answering to
our pit and stalls, is without seats or
partitions; while above and encircling
| the whole are the boxes in which the
women and principal subscribers have
their places. If the district should be
a very poor one the probability is that
we find ourselves opposite covered
stage or an open piece of ground, in
| front of which the carts of the visitors,
full of their occupants, are arranged in
a semi circle, thus forming the walls OF
a truly Thespian theater. Within this
enclosure stands densely packed, good
natured, eager crowd, whose power OF
standing is only equaled by their pc weT
of uniiagging enjoyment. No money is
taken at the doors. The troupe is gem
orally hired either by a private indi-
vidual or by public subscription for a
certain number of days, and free admis-
sion is granted to every one. The per-
formances last from the early morning
until late in the evening, with short in
tervals between each four or five pieces.
The acting, generally speaking, is good,
tor the Chinese are naturally quick oi
observation, and are thus able, in every
day life, to catch easily thetone OF those
with whom they associate, and on tho
stage to assume the characters they wist
TO represent. The possession of thes'
faculties is the more important, as the
actors get very little guidance from th'
play book, which almost entirely con

t.s DaV 20;


Mr.. Redpath, the New York Tribune
correspondent sent to Ireland toinquire
into the condition of the famine-stricken
people, has received many letters from
parish priests detailing deplorable
state of affairs. The following letter
from Rev. John j. O'Keane, dated
Dramore West, is tale of suffering that
ought to move heart of stone:
The area of this parish is over 10000
acres, the greater part of which is bog
and mountain, and the remaining porN
tion, with the exception of n couple of
hundred acres of grazing land, consists
ofpoor marshy lowlands. The average
size of the holdings is between six and
eight acres, and the population, includ-
ing all denominations, is about 600
families, nearly 1000 individuals. Over
400 families are dependent on the relief
committees, and 100 families in the
parish are almost entirely in want of
clothing, and the children in state of
semi-nudity.
On Sunday morning last, as / was
about going TO church, a poor young
woman, prematurely aged by poverty,
