that the Charity Ball is heavily under
scored event in their calendar OF social
festivals.
The ball it will be remembered was
given for the henedt Of the new City
Hospital, and it.was estimated late last
night that something like $3.50 would
probably be realized from the ball.
THOSE WHO RAN THE AFFAIR.
The Executive Committee who map
ped out the ideas of the affair as it has
progressed from weeks to weeks con-
sisted of Is. w. Peterson, chairman; II.
c. Franzheim, secretary; John e. Rihal-
daffer, 7. G. Moffat, DIR. Gustave Asch-
man, z. Buchanan and A. 5. List.
The Ticket Committee consisted OF
Mrs. Morris. Horkheimer, chairman;
Mrs. John G. Riheldaffer, secretary;
Mrs. PEBBLES Tatum, Miss Mary Frew.
Mrs. Joseph Metcalf, Mrs. Louis Whit,

Berger, Miss Effie Russell, Mrs. i. W..
Peterson, Mrs. L. G. Moffat, Mrs. Joseph
Speidel, Mrs. T. J. Hearne, Mrs. Dr.
Aschman, and Miss Kathleen Acheson.
The work of the ladies, especially some
of them, has been untiring, with the re-
suit that large humber of tickets have
been disposed Of, and the success of the
ball assured.
1t was not till long past midnight that
the last strains OF the Opera House
orchestra died away. The may watzes
and the stately quadrilles were over
and happily weary the throng of dane
ers, almost all of whom danced from
- ~ 80 lo1
wendell their way home in the dim
light OF the hunters moon.

carrying themselves with fascinating
grace, attended by devoted escorts,
looking delight, mirth and JOY from
sparkling eyes and animated faces,
formed the focus of the bewitching
scene.
Stately matrons and their dignifed
spOuSes walked with imposing grandeur
and impreSsiveneSs through the straight
lined details of the promenade or plain
quadrille.
Giddy girls gushed gushingly to
dudiSh swells Of tender years.
Dudish SwellS of tender years, with
thumbs in vest, bent over giddy girls
and whispered impressive nothings,
while the tender hearts of both bobbed
pleaSurably.
The debltdnte, sparkling, bright
looking, invigorating and inspiring as
May morning, around whom the bliss Of
the festival was wrapped like garment,
glided here and there, hitler and yon,
laughing. beaming, happy, shedding
contagious enjoyment like iridescent
light from q sparkling gem just from
the lapidary. None saw the ball through
such fascinating lenses, and none had
more potent effect in warming the cold
mercury blood Of the gray-haired veter-
ans, and sending it in warm pulSations
through their hearts, causing Old-time
elasticity TO characterize their move
ments and TO make them wish they
were young again.
FROM THE BALCONY.
From the balcony looked down large
throng of spectators, some enviously,
some sympathizingly, some regretfully,
all compiacently. The dancers, prone
naders and votaries at Pleasures shrine
were viewed best from this point. I'm
der the glory of light, and gOrgeousness
and beauty of decoration, the brilliancy
ofthe ladies' toilets, and the black broad
cloth of the gentlemen, all combined to
give life and picturesque beauty to
scene which will long hold a pleasant
Mace I'm memOry'S sway.

ment of the unfortunate woman.
 We may he mistaken, but a perusal of the testimony certainly created
 the impression on our mind that careful and heroic treatment of the ease when Dr. Hughes was called Tn
 to see the patient would have given different results. This impression was confirmed by the testimony of physicians who testified in the case. Now if it is the part of rascality to form an opinion from reading testi- mony in a case, we will plead guilty. If the papers suppressed any eyi- dence that might have counter balanced this opinion, then we may possibly be ignorant of the case. Dr. Hughes was called to treat the un- fortunate woman. His patient died. If he should treat the young Indian boys at the Indian school with the same results when they were sick they too might die and we would have less Indians. That was all there was to the article. No rehec- tion on Dr. Hughes whatever, but simply logical deductions from plain

Arriving in town last evening Steen cashed the checks and then commenced his dissipating career which lasted all night. On being requested early this morning to drive out the stage, he refused, and it is supposed he shortly after wards skipped. Before 6 a. m. he produced S320 in gold, so it would seem there are probably others be- sides those mentioned who have been He is a absolute char acter and has always borne a shady reputation.

 IA large tarantula caught in June, 1880, belonging to Frank Lewis,

 Last Friday night, about g o'clock, James Greenwood left Navy Island in sailboat bound for Chippewa, Canada The island is situated two miles above Niagara falls, and on the 1 Canadian side of the boundary line. The trip across to the main land is a l risky one. Greenwood did not reach l home and Saturday morning search | was made for him. When it became | known that he had left the island | Tor Chippewa the conclusion was in- evitable that he had been carried | over the falls. Search was made in the gorge and in the eddies below the Horseshoe falls. Pieces of the boat were found. Greenwood's death occasions general surprise, as he was a young man thoroughly acquainted with the river.
 Up to September sth 2,O75 car loads of green fruit had been shipped rom California over the Southern faelfic to the east, against 1,75O car oads last year. It is estimated that 1t least l, 800 carloads of raisins will oe shipped out of the state this year. judging from the good crops every where Tn California, or an increase of 50 carloads over last year, the total ihipments for 1890 being 1,45O car oads or 100000 pounds. The vine shipments will be in excess of ast years shipments of 2,5OO car pads. The prune shipments by rail vlll equal last years which was I2.- OO,OOO pounds, or 600 carloads. There has been slight falling of n canned goods shipments. but they 1ill doubtless exceed 1000 carloads. 7 t will thus be seen that the rail hipments of California's leading roducts, aside from cereals. will mount to about 1l,000 carloads.
