first hall of the "Twen-on Club" at In
fautry Hall last evening. And it was a
complete success, the smiling faces of the
members of the committee bearing wit
ness to the fact. Not hitch was observa-
BILE anywhere and throughout the evening
everything moved along with vim and
energy that was gratifying.
Brilliant costumes enlivened the APP
pearance Of the ballroom, and the whirl-
ing dancers emed surrounded by a halo
of bright colors and beautiful tints,
through which the sombre-hued attire OF
the opposite sex appeared at intervals as n
background, and with great effect. As
each number ended n universal demand
for repetition prolonged the program
until long after the time set for the close.
Even the orchestra seemed imbued with
the spirit of the occasion, and as mt times
the'well-trained voices OF the participants
joined in some popular refrain the entire
company took the cue, and sang as they
danced until the walls fairly rang with
the combined vocal and instrumental
music.
The ball opened with waltz, and as
the happy couples whirled by in perfect
time to the music, every face was radiant
with thoughts of the happiness in store.
For one hour previous to the first waltz,
the orchestra discoursed series of pop
ular airs, all of which only served to tan
talize the eager dancers At last the
grand march moved and the charmingly
dressed ladies passed slowly in review be-
fore the observers in the galleries Floor

MiddIefeld, Mass, Has Cases of
the Deadly Typhus.
A CLEVER SWINDLER RUN DOWN.
A Min,ster Kissed and Then Lied About
It-A Sensational Case at Laconia,
y. H.-Brothers Died Together-Ply-
mouth sees the Light.

NrppLEFIELD, Ms/s., Feb. H.-Typhus
fever has been discovered in a family of
Russian Hebrews recently brought to this
town from New York. Tuesday it was
learned that the patients were passengers
on the Massilia and word was sent to the
state board OF health.
City Physician McCullom of Boston ar
rived and visited the place with DIR. IL. f..
Wilson of Chester, the attending physi-
rian. Four cases were found and the
place was Immediately quarantined.
The pstients had nearly all the symp-
toms OF the typhus fever, but as one or
two were lacking, the doctors would not
raw positively that the cases were typhus,
hut there was little doubt that IL was
some form of the disease.
DIR. Wilson visited the patients and
found three OF them improved, but the
fourth, O young woman, was in very
serious condition. There has been no
new case since Tuesday and it is proba-
bic that the fever will spread no further.
The Hebrews were brought to Middle
field by George w. Wilcox to work in his
knitting mill. 1t is known as the Church
mill and formerly made woolen cloths,
but last fall knitting industry was
started.
Help wss brought from New Hamp-
shire and the mill was well started when
about three weeks ago strike was or
ranized and the mill was shut down. Mr..
Wilcox went to New York and secured 16
Russian Jews to take the places of the
strikers and was ignorant of the fact that
they had Just arrived on the Massilia.

Dogs ms Metaphysicians.

A young man had owned for some years
dog which was his constant companion.
Recently the young man married and
moved with his bride and his dog into a
house on the opposite side of the street
from his fathers house, his own former
home. The dog was not happy. One day
when the master came home his wife sat
on his knee, while Jack was lying by the
ire. Jack rose from his place, came over
to the couple and expressed his dis
approval.
"Why, jack" said the master, "this is
all right, she's good girl" and as he
spoke he patted her arm. Jack looked at
him, turned away and left the room. In
a moment they heard noise, and going
into the hall they found Jack dragging
his bed down stairs. When he reached
the front door he whined to be let out
and when the door was opened he dragged
his bed down the steps and across the
street to his old home, where he scratched
for sdmittance. Since then he has never
been back to his master, refusing all over
tures.-London Spectator.

Queer Things I'm Science.

Fourteen years ago Professor Pictet, OF
Geneva, reduced hydrogen for the first
time to liquid. 1t was regarded as moth
ing more than afreak of scientific luxury.
But the professor, established now with
complete laboratories in Berlin, has not
only produced almost incredible cold, but
turned his powers to practical purposes.
Mercury, for instance, has been frozen hard
enough to be cast into the form of a
tuning fork, and so have its elasticity
measured. And If the commercial must
come in, to make a thing practical, gly-
cerine has been crystallized and brandy
frozen--with the effect in the latter case
OF imparting mellowness" only OBJ
tainable hitherto by long keeping. Most
important of all, by this means it il found
that chloroform can be thoroughly puri-
fed-a result almost impossible by other
means.--The Young Man.

SOLDIERS AND SAILORS Fo CHIT.
.oody Battles With Firearms i'm the
Streets o: Manos

NEW YORK, Feb. q. - The British
,eamship Cyril, which arrived here from
BRAZILIAN ports brings news of bloody
conflict between Brazilian sailors and
coldiers in the town of Manos. Captain
Oliphant of the Cyril said that the au-
thorities of the province of Amagonia, of
volt against the government of Dictator
Peixotto.
The soldiers stationed in the province
were in sympathy with the local authori-
ties and actively co-operated in resisting
the orders of the Dictator. A number OF
the Brazilian war ships had been sent
from Rio to Manos and the Rio Negro
was patrolled by gunboats which over
awed the town along the river.
Several minor conflicts between the
naval men and the local military took
place and both parties were very bitter
against each other. The war ship Trapi-
her was anchored near Manos.
On the evening OF January 30 a number
of sailors went ashore. When they were
returning to their vessel the next morn
ing they met a body of soldiers who
sought to arrest them. The sailors were
near the beach at the time and made a
dash for their boats, but were headed off
by another party of soldiers.
The soldiers fired volley at the sailors
and then charged upon them. The sailors,
who were also armed, returned the fire.
Although great number of shots were
fired on each side and very many were
wounded only two sailors and one soldier
were killed outright.
The conflict became hotter, the soldiers
dubbed their guns and hand to hand
fight began, the sailors using their cut
lasses to cut and thrust and their pistols
as clubs.
The officers OF the warship saw the
fight on the beach and dispatched boat
load Of sailors to assist those ashore.
Another force of soldiers also arrived to
help their comrades. Some of the soldiers
drew out of the fight severely wounded
and attempted to swim to their vessel and
one OF them was shot while doing so and
was drowned. The sailors finally sue
ceeded in regaining their ship.

Turn About.

This story of Meissonier's wife and q
physician whose identity is not revealed
is told: The lady sent in haste for the
doctor, who responded promptly, fearing
that serious illness had overtaken the
famous artist. But it was only lap dog
for whom his services were required, and
he was indignant. Pocketing his pride,
however, he ministered to the patient and
cured him. At the end OF the year Nine.
Meissonier noticed in the DOCTORS bill no
item for this case, and called his attention
to it; whereupon the medical man ex-
planned that he was not veterinary
surgeon, and could not, therefore, make a
charge. He was glad, however, to do the
dog kindness. But the lady insisted.
"Well," said the doctor, "the hinges OF
my garden gate are rusty; ask NJ. Meis-
sonier to bring his brush and paint them

Three Men Caught at Old Trick In APP
pie vSndiug mt woburn.
WoBURN, Mass, Feb. 27.-Tbree bold
fruit vendors worked a nice little scheme
on Mrs. Edgar G. Allen, Mt. Pleasant
Court, Woburn, yesterday afternoon.
They sold her a barrel of apples which
appeared to be full of apples and for
which Mrs. Allen paid him s1.90.
They then left saying they wouldn't
wait for the empty barrel, but would call
some other time for il. Not long after
they had driven of, Mrs. Allen made an
examination OF the apples and what was
her surprise TO find that the barrel was
about two-thirds filled with broken or
ange boxes and big stone in the bottom
to supply the weight OF the missing ap-
plies.
She reported the swindle to the police
who arrested three young men who gave
the names of Richard +. Long, Henry T..
Wilson and stephen G. O'Hara, the two
former hailing from Somerville and the
latter from Cambridge.
Chief Mcintosh made an examination
OF three barrels of apples which they had
in their wagon and found one of them
fixed up in the same manner as the barrel
sold to Mrs. Allen. The men will appear
in court.

A Chinese BYide.

This is how little Chinese bride, whose
wedding vas recently celebrated in this
city, wSS dressed, says the New York
Press. She wore kimono Of black silk
and over it gray China silk, lined with
red and green, and fringed with black and
green. Red, blue and yellow were the
colors embroidered OH her tiny, white
sandals, and large, golden suns on the
toes showed that she was maid OF high
degree. In her small, dark cars were huge
pendants of molachite set with pearls, SO
heavy as to pull down the ears in a dis
tressing manner. Her hair was, of course
done "a la Chinoise," and tied with the
most vivid red imaginable. She carried q
big red silk handkerchief and the dainti-
est little white satin fan completed her
costume. Her dowry was large as her fee,
were small.
