SWEET SPRINGS, August Is.
The week has been one of gaiety and en-
joyment here, the event being the combina-
ton phantom and domino party given last
night at Amusement hall.
The affair was one of brilliancy and
effect. there beirg from twenty-five to
thirty guests in masquerade costumes.
The most effective and striking Of these
were those worn by Mrs Campbell Nc
Farlane, of st. Louis; Miss Myra Fielder,
Of Kansas City; Miss Bertha Hax, of St.
Joseph. The cos umes were arranged as
black dominos and were effectively embel-
lished with grOtesgue figures OF representa-
tives FROM the court Of his Satanic majesty.
These figures in old gold and on the back
ground Of black were noticeable in a
marked degree.
Col. Hall, the senior proprietor of the
hotel, was conspicuous in a marked degree,
not only from his towering form and solid
proportions, but from the fact that
he wore an entire mother

ST. Joseph; Mrs. Christian, of Hannibal /;
and a number Of others. Socially, the even
ing was a great success, and the guests
erjoyed 1t very much.
The bat ing is always a source of
amusement for the newcomers, and they
enjoy il equally as well as the old
habItues.
The proprietors still command the uni
versal praise Of the guests by their atien-
ton, their courtesy and general consid-
erativeness.
The Misses Hax, of st. Joseph, are
pr, minen, among the most fashionable
ladies at the Springs. Two of these are

A correspondent in Ohio has sought
out Mrs. Foraker for q confirmation
of the story that she once made her
son, now the republican candidate for
governor of Ohio, pair of trousers
out of a coffee-sack. Mrs. Foraker
said "You see it was in the fall
when Ben was about ten years old, and
the men folks were all busy building

myself had all We could do preparing

The president will not come home
from Yellowstone park with his repu-
tation as an expert angler intact un-
less he does better than he has been
doing lately. A day or two ago it
was recorded that General Stager
had landed the biggest ca oh of trout.
and later advices are to the effect
that Senator Vest, in contest as to
who should catch the largest number
of fish, beat the president by full
dozen.

Tits said that tie water-brained

and whirlpool persists in his intention,
notwithsta nding the park authorities
have re fused to give their consent.
What Webb, a swimmer of remarka-
BILE skill aud endurance, could not
accomplish, it is unlikely that any
other fool can do, and the fate of this
person is a matter of certainty. There
is law in New York making an at
tempt at suicide criminal offense, but
it probably will not operate as a res
traint upon lunatic whom the pub
