lie Tickled "a Lady'$ Shoulder and Tn
silOd Himself at IA Ball.

Baltimore, Nd, Jan. 23.-Young
James q Blaine had the distinguish
ell honor Of being shown the door
ut Lehman's hall Tuesday night for
conduct that was not in keeping
with rules that govern the local Four
Hundred. After the performance at
the Academy yesterday afternoon
he, with other members Of the com
.pany of amateurs who took part in
Fra Diavolo, attended supper at
which wine was served very literally.
He imbibed very freely consequent
ly felt rather hilarious. One of the
ladies felt SO completely worn out
that she went to sleep. After sup
per Mr.. Blaine attended the german
at Lehman's hall Society here was
largely represented and the affair
WAS one of the brilliant affairs of the
season. Mr.. Blaine danced and
seemed to enjoy himself immensely
until his shoes began to hurt, when
he deliberately sat down in the mid
dle of the floor and took them of.
The sensation produced can better
he imagined than described. Subse.
quently he put them on again and
the escapade would probably have
been passed by had not Mr. Blaine
so far forgotten himself as to tickle
young lady's shoulder. This act
was resented by MIR. J. Ridgeley
Trimble. who, without further ado
hustled the young son of the Secre-
tary of Safe out of the door. Where
Mr.. Blaine subsequently landed is
unknown. The dance was continu-
ed without him.

The death of King Kalakau

The death of King kalakau in
San Francisco and the return of his
body to his homo in the Hawaii is
lands, recalls an incident which is
said to have actually occurred during
his visit to this country six or seven
years ago. He attended the Missou-
ri Legislature while in session. and
took train for Kansas City. The
Hing bowled UP so frequently it be-
came necessary to put him to bed.
Arrangements had been made for
his reception at Kansas City, and it
would be an objectionable offsnse
for him not to respond. Mr.. James
n Burns who died a representative
in Congress, was adorned in the
Kings toggery: and at the proper
time spoke to the assembled thou
sands. Among other things. he re
marked he had heard of Kansas
City's wonderful progress in his far
off home. which was greeted with
great enthusiasm.

The Senatorial contest in Illinois
is APPARENTLY az far from solution as
it was this time last week. The vote
stands: Gen. Palmer, D. 1O1, Gov.
Oglesby, R. 100, and Streeter, A. 3;
necessary to q choice, 1O3. The
democrats are confident that they
can secure the two votes necessary
to the election of Palmer, while the
republicans are equally as confident
that Oglesby will capture the plum.
In the mean time the three alliance
members are holding the Legislature
at dead lock, costing the state
thousands of dollars per day, for
what reason they alone can ten, GER
tainly they do not expect that 1O1
democrats or 100 republicans are
going to desert their faith and come
over to their man But then if that
body is like the average State legis-
lures it may be a good thing for
the state, if the, stay tied up
during the whole of the session.

In silver vase writes Detroit Free

Now, it is we'll known thas a two or
even four hours incineration does not

are thrown away as refuse.

that water would not steep it, fire

The resurrection bone is supposed
by many to be the nucleus OF the i'm
mortal body. Hudibras wrote:
All th' other members shall, they say,
Spring out of this as from seed.
This question arises: Would 1t not
be more in keeping with the impor-

bones buried in the cemetery lot, while
the ashes find their repose in the silver
urn, and may be retained in the house
