BALLADS OF THE TOWN.

THE FRIVOLOUS GIRL.
Her silken gown it rustles,
AS she goes down the stair;
And in all the place there's ne'er a face
One-half, one half SO fair.
But oh, / saw heryesterday-
And no one knew I was She
When little sick child looked up and smiled,
AS she sat on my lady's knee.
Her fan it flirts and flutters,
Her eyes grow bright-grow dim
And all around no man is found
But thinks she thinks of him.
But oh! to her the best of all,
Though they be great and grand,
Are less than the sick whose smiles come
quick
at the touch of my lady's hand.
Her little shoe of satin
Peeps underneath her skirt
And foot so small ought never at all
To move III mire and dirt
But oh! she goes among the poor.
And heavy hearts rejoice
AS they can tell who know her we'll
To hear my lady's voice.
Her glove is soft as feathers
Upon the nesting dove;
Its touch so light l have no right
To think, to dream of love
But oh! when, clad in simplest garb,
She goes where none may see,
l watch and pray that some happy day
My lady may pity me. Puck.

POKER IN SOCIETY.
The Upper Ten In New England
Town Shocked at the Discovery

The Upper Ten In a New England
Town Shocked at the Discovery.
High society circles in this city pro-
fess to be shocked at revelations re-
Gently made, showing that many ladies
occupying lofty social positions are ad-
dicted to gambling, says Waterbury
special.
1t has been asserted that there is a
craze among the fair sex for policy, and
that the high toned young ladies of the
fashionable quarter send every day for
gigs.
A prominent newsdealer informed a
reporter last week that he had had a
good many orders for ''dream books" of
late, and could not account for the de-
mand until he learned of the policy
craze raging in upper tendon.
A society swell, who attends all the
afternoon tea parties, says that it is rare
sport to watch the bellies send out late
IN the afternoon to get the drawings of
the days play. When the discreet
messenger returns with the slips they
retire to some secluded spot where they
can study out the problem and figure
how near this OF that gig came to win
ming.
The matter was kept quiet for some
time, but finally leaked out.

Some time last fall Miss Evarts, who
is rosy. bouncing country lass of
eighteen, with black hair and flashing
dark eyes, attended a dance in this city
while visiting friends here. At the
dance she met Horace Willis, good
looking young man of about twenty
five years, who appeared to take quite
fancy to the village beauty. He
danced with her a number of times and
asked permission to call OH her before
she returned home.
Willis called and was invited to call
again. The consequence was that con-
siderable love-making had been in
dulged in by both before Miss Evans

Willis lived in New Britain, but called
