Merry May Party.

Prof. A. M. LOOmfs' Saturday Morning
Glass Terminate Their Seasons Studies
bV a Reception and German.
Shortly after four O'Clock yesterday after
noon about eighty little people of various
sizes, and ranging in age from eight to six
teen years, marched about the well Waxed
floor of Loomis' Temple of Music while
Thomas full orchestra played in their most
spirited manner. The leaders of the merry
little procession that wound about in pretty
evolutions were Master Wadworth Hoteh-
kiss and Miss Helen Treat daughter of John
L. Treat. The children were in ball dress
suits en- regIe and were exceedingly happy in
their very elegant and tasteful costumes. The
s'best bib and tucker" may have been good
enough for the children of former, days, but
such simplicities de not find favor with the
children, and the mammas as well, of the
present generation. So the party that
gathered to do honor to their instructor,
Prof. LOOMS, yesterday, was distinguished
from any gathering that the children's
parents ever took part in during their child
hood days, both by the costumes of the
children and the skill by them shown as they
went through the various intricate forms of
the modern dance. After the grand march
the children formed round the hall for the
Sicilian circle. Then followed Lancier's
walters and polkas and German. The
forms were very choice. The party broke
up about seven o'clock and all went away re-
joicing.
One of the plessantest features of the May
party was the large attendance of the parents
of the children, the hall being crowded to
its utmost capacity. The mammas, sisters
and friends we're much interested, and fire.
quently expressed their approval of the read
mess and grace with which the children went
through the complex figures of the various
kinds of lanoiers, and also of the German.
After the children departed those of the old
or people who remained enjoyed dancing.
During the progress of the party, Miss
Agatha Alling presented Professor Loomis
with large, handsome bouquet of rare flow
ers which were brought from New York.
Professor Loomis received the token grace
fully amid the applause of the party.
Altogether the May party of 1884 will long
have prominent place in the memories of
those who were fortunate enough to partici-
pate. The names of the class have already
been published in the COURIER.

Joseph Jefferson.

Am Interesting Description of His Home
Some Persopal Traits.
A New Haven gentleman says: 1t is not
generally known that "Joe' JefersonSclaims
as his home a neat little cottage in one of the
most beautiful spots of southeastern Louis
lana His house is situated about ten miles
from New Iberia, town on the Louisiana
and Texas railroad 125 miles west of New
Orleans. 'tJefersoR's Island, as it is there
called, is one Of the five hills which run
across the southeast corner of the State and
are remarkable from a geological point of
view as being the only high land in a vast
extent of prairie and sca marsh. It is an
'sisland" by courtesy, being nearly surrounds
ed by bayous. Mr.. Jeffsrson's house, a
pretty white cottage with pertico in front,
is situated on the top of the hill
and is one story and a half high,
q height seldom exceeded in that region, on
account of the climate. In the rear is large
lake where huge, lazy alligators sun them
selves all day long on the surface of the
water Between the lake and the house is a
magnificent grove of giant live oaks and
magnolias skirted with what was four years
ago one of the best orange orchards in the
State. The severe frost which visited Lou
isiana in the winter of 1880 almost totally
destroyed the trees. Mr.. Jefferson's
home is on the edge of that
poetic land immortalized by Longfellow as
the home of the Acadiens. Beautiful is the
land and lovely with its prairies and forests
of fruit-trees. -
Mr.. Jefferson, like all men of great charac-
teristics, has his little eccentricities. But he
is kind-hearted. genial and hospitable. AT
home he spends his time in resuscitating
among the beautiful scenes about his estate.
Part of the time he devotes to painting and
similar recreation.
Much as Mr.. Jefferson has played he feels
some slight embarrassment even now when
he comes before his audience. He has al.
ways refused to play in New Orleans,
although the people there are DESTROYS oil
seeing him, because it is SO near his home.

What a well-informed correspondent says
of Congress Spring in a letter to the New
York Graphic, August 6, 1888:
By the by, the great mineral water drink
ing public are hurrying to Stake their thirst
at this fountain not only because of its eff
cacy, purity and acknowledged sanitary
properties, bat because of the reparation of
their systems, impaired by rasping waters,
invariably received A few years ago there
was a mania for strong and harsh waters.
The injuries wrought upon their constitution
by this unnatural indulgence ultimately
worked out revolution, and now all sensi-
BILE people who value health use the milder
and safer waters like those of this celebrated
spring. In fact, the old Congress was the
"father of waters" not in volume like that
of the Mississippi, but because of its pa
ternity dating back to period when Sara
toga was primarily recognized as resort,
and where the existence of this mineral
spring enhanced the attractions of the Spa,
Just as the waters of the mineral springs of
France and Germany have invested Vichy
and Ems with worldwide reputation.
