Sr.x.vaEL's DAUGHTER -Phe ball

SrsxswaLL's DAUGHTER -Phe ball
room of the Kimball House was, last
evening, ddFoted to one of the best aud
brightest occasions that has made
memorable ehe events Of the exposition.
Happily tht was o an event heralded
by procIamltions or requiring the aid
Of general ufders, but was a spontaneous
ovation froh friends and admirers to
the lovely daughter of one of the grand
est men ofsl history.
The mosttsignifcant fact in the course
of the Complimentary ball rendered to
Miss Julia jackson, the daughter OF
'>tonewalIt Jackson, was that not .
State in the Union was u~nrepresented
among those who came freely to offer
to her their tributes Of esteem and
reverence for the valor and memory Of
her illustrious father. This record was
kept by Mai. r. 4. Bacon, whose de-
votion to her father is only equalled by
his desire to make the s%ojourn of the
daughter pleasant In our midst.
Miss Jackson was, of course, the
cynosure of all eyes and was the re-
cipient of many compliments. She is a
most charming young lady, and truly
the daughter of the SOuth.-Atlantd

"A DRESS REHgARsAL"-BRooM DRILL,

The entertainment by the music class of
Miss Z. NJ. Rowe at the Metropolitan The
ater last evening drew crowded house. In
the dress-circle and orchestra standing room
was at premium, and the gallery was quite
half full. The sketch, "a Dress Re-
hearsal," was very acceptably presented.
When it is considered that the young ladies.
with one exception, never appeared on the
stage before, their singing and acting was
exceedingly good. Miss Rowe was musical
director. with orchestral support. These
young ladies sustained the characters in the
operetta: Misses Ida Clinch, Esther Jacobs,
josie Wilder. Annie Mayer. Gertie Jones.
Josephine johnson. May Cummings. Minerva
Porter tof Dixop). Georgie Porter (cf Dixop),
Agnes McGuire, Lizzie Hoag lof Washing
ton), May Talbot, the Misses Waldron,
Emma Wilder, the Misses Turton, Freddie
Lizzie Jacobs and Mrs. Bsssett The music
was light, pleasing, and g vein of humor
pervaded all the airs. The audience
manifested its pleasure by very lib
raj applause. Several of the young
ladies developed considerable dramatic
strength. At the conclusion the "broom
drill was given by members of the Phi
Alpha Club, these young ladies appearing

Lou Marvin plivates, Sophie Edwards,
Rose Woodburn, Sadie Paine, Grace Camp
bell. Emily Thompson, May Aitken. Laura
Miller, Emma Hartwell, Nellie Henley,
Kitty Henley, Lille Dwinell and Laura
Graham. The ladies came on at the bugle
call, and went through ell the usual faeings
and with the manual of arms reversed in
nearly all cases as a matter OF humor), and
gave several fancy military movements.
They wore a neat uniform, carried brooms,
had small dust pans in place of cart
ridge boxes, and the captain was armed
with huge feather duster. The drill was
admirably executed. and drew out re.
peated rounds of applause, and an encore at
the conclusion, to which the company" re-
sponded. The programme announced that
the ladies had practiced but about week, but
their drill was pronounced by military men
present complete surprise in its excellence.
The company was trained by Lieutenant f.
Eisenminger of Colonel Sheehan's staff of the
First Artillery Regiment. The Broom
Drill' is a popular feature in social entertain
ments at the East now. Its production here
last night was a novelty, that greatly pleased
