Grand Ball.

| VII MOuudy Ol tllS Week We were uO
tilted through invitation that the Grand
Ball Of the season would come off at
the Opera House on the next evening.
At an early hour, and at the ap-
pointed time the hall was brilliant
ly lighted and thrown open to the re-
ception of the special and select guests
of the occasion, while the Washington
String Band stood in readiness with in
strum ents tuned for the Grand March
which soon followed and was partici-
pated in by almost every one present.
Nothing was left undone by the COM
mittee of arrangements that would
render the hour more enjoyable or
could possibly add to the happy result
which followed. Although the day
had been excessively warm, the hall
was sufficiently ventilated for the COM
Portable enjoyment of everyone pres
ent, while the refreshment tables
groaned under the weight of sweet
meats and cooling beverages which
rested upon them. AS the lines which
formed the various sets upon the floor
swayed to and fro in the mazy dance
we recognized among the gentlemen
present those to whose praise has been
recorded the gallantry of the age in St.
Landry, while among the ladies we be-
held the truest types Of elegance, grace,
and beauty which is ever the gift to
womanhood. Although there was
quite a number present we noted
the fact that, not as is usually the case,
was any one at a loss for either part
ner or a uis- Wis, but as the music was
called for in each set the gentlemen and
ladies stepped to their proper places on
the floor, as if it were arranged a month
OF more before.
After three or four hours pleasantly
spent in looking on we left for that re-
pose so essential to the working man
who is compelled to be an early riser,
and were not disturbed in the enjoy
ment of it until about moonset when
the last man at the ball came in and
told us that it twas all over" We don't
know whether or not he meant the ball
or that his sweetheart had given him
the parting mitten. 4

a BIrfh.RaY SuFnrlse.

About eight o'clock last evening
ladies and gentlemen began to call at
the residence of Mr.. Hiram Yeager,
No. 3O5 Washington street, and they
kept on calling until the parlor and
sitting room were filled, and on his ar
rival from his place of business he was
completely surprised, and on asking
what IL all meant, he was informed
that few of his friends had called on
him for the purpose of spending q So
cial evening, and reminding him that
this was his 35th birthday. A short
time was passed in hand shaking and
congratulations. An hour was then
spent in social conversation and Jokes.
Miss Emma Irene Roberts sang q
number of new and fine selections, ac
companied by Miss Ida L. Roberts, on
the organ. Mrs. Yeager then entered
the parlOrs with pleasant smile on her
face, and invited the company into the
dining room where they were seated at
a table that fairly groaued under its
load of good things. After they had
done full justice to the ice cream, cakes
and fruit, Mrs. Yeager was compliment
ed for her good taste iu preparing such
a splendid repast.
Mr.. Yeager received handsome and
peculiarly constructed present from
one of the company, that created much
amusement. Mrs. John W. Crozier
sanga number of Scotch songs, in one
of which she was accompanied by
Mr.. CroZier, the rendition of which
caused bursts of laughter AT a late
hour the company left for their homes
each wishing Mr.. Yeager and his fani-
ly long and happy life.
