Homes for Ba!let.Girls.

Miss Ada Leigh writes letter to the
Times to say that having heard that some
English ballet girls were employed at o
"Paris theater." she invited them to tea
with her, and finding that they were pay
ing too dear for their lodgings and food,
hired an "appartement" for them at ESQ
per annum. I'm city," she continues,
where on every side one sees the costli-
ness of sin, shall it be said that we lacked
the means to form home for its speedy
prevention?" By which I presume
that she would have benevolent persons
assist her in paying for this 'apparte.
ment." The lady's intentions may be
sound, but her mode of carrying them
out is impractical. These ballet girls, so
far as 1 understand it, receive salaries.
They are, too, I suppose, engaged by the
week, and not by the year. Why, then
are funds needed to enable them to pay
for their lodgings? Why, too, is the
''appartement" taken by the year? Tt is
to be furnished; it contains, in addition
to sleeping rooms, q dining room and q
sitting room, and a trustworthy woman
is to be placed in charge of it, in order
to provide the ballet girls with meals.
Surely it would nave been far more SIM
pie to have found good furnished zap
partement" for these girls, to have taken
it by the week, and have explained to
them where they might buy food, to
-have left them to cut their loaves accord
ing to their salaries.
A ''home" for ballet-girls must be made
to be useful. These Eng
lish girls each receive, presume, about
G1 per week for their services, and with
such salary they can live perfectly we'll
in Paris, If they are only shown the way.
In London there are at the slack season
of the year vast number of ballet girls
ont Of employment. Many of them, it is
true, live with their parents, who are
generally in some way or other con-
nected with the theatrical profes-
sion. Many, however, have only
the homes that they can make for them
selves, and if Miss Ada Leigh wishes to
employ her time and other peoples
money in usefullv aiding them, would
suggest that she should found ballet
girls home, not in Paris, but in London /;
that she should board and lodge the
girls for adequate payment when they
have an engagement, and only help them
when they are out of one. Really this
sort of fussy nonsense ought to be ex-
posed. What, let me ask, does Miss
Leigh mean to do with the apartment
when these English girls have left Paris?
WHAT, too, with the furniture? When
she sells it at the end of the engagement,
is she not aware that she will lose al
least so per cent. on its cost?

Dill Nye's Hornet.

Last fall desired to add to my rare
collection large hornets nest. / had
an embalmed tarantula and her porce-
lain-llned nest, and I desired to add to
these the gray and airy home of the
hornet. I procured one of the large size
after cold weather, and hung it in my
cabinet by a string. I forgot all about
it until the spring. When the warm
weather came something reminded me of
it. think it was hornet. He logged
my memory in some way and called my
attention to it. Memory is not located
where thought it was. It seemed as
though whenever he touched me it
with red place all around it.
Then some more hornets came and be-
gan to rake up old personalities. I
remember that one of them lit
on my upper lip. He thought
it was rosebud. When he went
away it looked like glandiolus

duce the swelling so that

them off because they are so sensitive

conduct towards hornet.
remember once while was watching
the busy little hornet gathering honey
and June bugs from the bosom of rose
years ago, stirred him up with club
more as practical joke than anything
else, and he came and lit on my sunny
hair-that was when I wore my own
hair-and he walked around through my

He Resumed.

One of the biggest liars in the state of
Michigan in 1859 was an old citizen of
the county of Wayne, who used to hang
out around the Dearborn hotel and gro
ceries. In the winter of that year and
1860, he was brought low with sickness,
and he made solemn VOW that if he got
we'll he would quit lying. He recovered,
and as soon as able to be about he frank
ly stated his position.
Some of the boys could hardly be-

one asked:
''Uncle Billy, didn't you once assert
that you had moved six acres of grass

measure very close. I guess the field
didn't hold over three acres.'
"And hayn't you repeatedly said that
you were in the Mexican WARP"

''Let's seei Did I say 1000? There
might have been few pounds less, but
you see I had a powerful brace for my
knees"
The old man felt that he was losing
prestige by scaling down~lies which he
had made plenty of men believe, and he
was becoming very uneasy. but there
was one more question. The interro-
gator looked Uncle Billy square in the
face and asked:

Thad Stevens Baptism.

Mrs. lydia Smith, the quadroon wo-
man who for twenty four years managed
Thaddeus Stevens household, said the
other day to newspaper correspondent:
'.Out of those very windows Mr.. Stevens
once looked across to yonder pump and
said that he would rather go a hundred
miles to be administered to by one of
those pure, tender sisters whom he had
seen in Washington, than to send across
the street there for ali the clergymen in
the country. On the afternoon of the
day of his death, August 18th, 1868, I
said to him, Would you have any objec-
tion to being baptised?' No. was the re-
ply. and just after two colored men.
many of whom from all parts of the
country to pray for his recovery, had
left, two hours before his death, Sister
Lauretta O'Rielly, of Washington city,
baptised him. And" continued Mrs.
Smith, who is a devout Catholic, and
claims to ,have induced Stevens to this
step, II believe that he is safe in heaven

The report of the governor of Utah to
the secretary of the interior recommends
that the army be authorized to aid in the
execution of legal processes in that ter
ritory, and also that, in case the legisla-
ture elected under the Edmunds act does
not do its duty, the territorial assembly
be abolished. A council to take the
place of legislature in providing laws
for Utah is also recommended. These
suggestions are well enough. but they do
not touch the bottom of the question. It
is as well first as last to face the neces-
sity of wiping out the territory and be-
ginning over again. It is child's play to
keep .up this annual lamentation and
recommendation. An irresistible force

ornaments were diamonds. These
women created a genuine sensation,
and they deserved to, for handsomer
picture de fantastic was seldom seen
in a ballroom.
Tomorrow evening the Charity Ball
takes place. This used to be the
great event of New York's upper So
ciety, but its place has been taken by
the Patriarch's, the Family Circle
Dancing Glass, and the Matriarch's
balls. The Patriarchs consist of fifty
leading gentlemen. They subscribe
each $3.50 for the three balls annually
given by them. This entities them to
nine invitations, five gentlemcn's and
four ladies'. The +. {. ID. G. has
membership of about two hundred.
Each of the members subscribcs SIP,
which entities him or her to admission
to three balls. Well introduced Wis
itors may obtain cards Of admission at
"a for each ball. The Matriarch's balls
were organized this winter by num-
Der of leading society ladies to repay
the compliments of the Patriarch's.
This body is similarly managed to that
of the Patriarch's, except that the la
dies pay $l.25 instead Of $3.50. All
these balls are held in Delmonico's
and, as might be expected, the creme
de la creme of society fights for ad-
mission to them.
Insurance business of all kinds has
been paying so poorly that speculative
parties are branching out into new
fields. Among the applicants to the
State Department for incorporation,
are party of women who propose to
organize under the name of "Thc
Women's Insurance Company" What
they propose to insure is not stated.
The presumption, however, is that the
new company will be composed of and
managed by women who will do a
general insurance business, thinking
that they can succeed where men at
present are failing. Let us hope, for
the sake of the fair ones, that they
will not give us another instance OF
the consequence "When lovely woman
stoops to folly" Women have tried
to be brokers, and tried to run stock
exchanges, but money has thus fa1
been so little attracted by thci
charms in the realms of business thai
both projectors and supporters hav.
generally been left high and dry.
