THE GOOD CHEER UP STAIRS.

1t takes a good deal to feed
one thousand people, especially when
frequent showers and conseque mt cool
breezes give them an unwonted appe-
tite, as was the case with most Of the
guests last night. Everything seemed
to favor the consumption of food at the
great ball. The fragrant odor emanat-
ing from the eight punch" distributed
under the supervision of Mr. Hasslnger
of the Refreshment Committee, com
bined with the lingering taste of some
of the aromatic bitters. which entered
into its composition, induced
desire for something in the shape of
provender, while a walk around the
beautifully arranged tables upstairs,
groaning under the weight of choice
viands prepared in the highest style OF
the culinary art, simply made one raven
GUS. But this made no difference. There
was enough for all and no one ent
hungry. That this is so cannot be
better exemplified than by telling a
little story on Lieutenant Young who,
with a party of ladies, was sitting on
the upper veranda about an hour after
midnight. With his usual courtesy the
popular lieutenant had seen that the
ladies were provided with ices, cake
French candies and other such-like
trihes SO dear to the feminine heart
and for the matter of that to some Of
the stomachs of the sterner sex as well
and had even gone SO far as to try 4
water ice himself. He ate few
Spoonsful of it, but gave it up as a bao
job and, calling a Chinese waiter, asked
for some chicken. The waiter an
swered that the chicken mas all gon,
and suggested little cold mutton al
being about the right thing. "Al
right" answered the genial officer
"bring me leg of mutton and whole
one, too" Two minutes later tn,
waiter appeared with large dish OF
which was nice roast leg of mutton
and placed it in front OF him. Tn

MONKEY BUSINESS.

ness Between Friends.
THE CITIZENS COMMITTEE.

The steamer Oceanic had on board
several monkeys when she came into
port last evening, and this morning two
OF them were taken out on the wharf
for exercise Pointing to particularly
ugly one, Customs Inspector Crowley
solemnly informed a stan reporter that
he had him in training for future
journalistic honors, as he intended
educating him fora reporter Evidently
reporters are not very popular with
Mr.. Crowley.
Fred Whiting was presented with a
small package Of mischief in the form
of monkey christened by the donor,
the ships butcher, Jimmie" But the
pride of the Oceanics officers and crew,
in the monkey line, is Joke. This
hairy passenger has been a fixture on
the ship during the past two trips, and
owns allegiance to Quartermaster
Garry, who has taught him many inter-
esting tricks, among which is 10 salute
the captain in true jack tar fashion.
A short time since Joko surrepti.
tiously entered the captains cabin and
took up position in one of the
captains shoes. When Captain
Smith entered the little beast
gravely saluted him in the usual fashion.
Get out of here" said the officer, and
the monkey again saluted a shower
of shoes and other available missiles
thrown at him had no effect on Ioko,
except to make him salute, and he had
to be removed by main force.
Recently he was noticed near cage
in which was confined a brillant.hued
japanese pheasant and in the morning
the bird was found dead and partially
eaten. This is why there is a GOODNESS
now between the owners of the monkey
ard those of the defunct fowl, and dark
runners Of CORY vengeance are afoat in

of crush, and long before the evening
wore away Uncle John Hassinger's
liberal store of punch gave out and he
had to make some more. Luckily he
had kept former occasions in mind and
had plenty of materials at hand. They
had been ordered for an emergency
and SO when the emergency came the
well springs did not follow the example
of Andy Browns reservoirs and run
dry. There was enough for everyone
including Lucien Young.

To make forty-fve gallons of this
mixture, as was done last night, the
various wines and cordials are empted
into clean barrel in the above pro-
portions lemons are then sliced and
thrown into the barrel until ladleful
of the mixture cannot be dipped up
without bringing four or five slices OF
the fruit. Sugar is then added to suit
the taste and the mixture allowed to
stand for four or five hours IN order tc
allow of the perfect blending of the
materials. About fifteen minutes before
it is required for use enough broken ice
may be put in to sufficiently cool it
This is delicate operation and re
quires care and experience, as toe
much ice would make it too cold anc
too little too warm. Water cannot bt
added under any circumstances, il
would simply spoil the whole mixture
and make genial John Hassinger's hal

night, and now that the barrel is empty

The size of the Council Chamber,

mitted at least two hundred people to
dance at the same time, and the scene
as they went gliding and whirling
through the terpsichorean maze was as
beautiful as a vision of the callphate.
Here the sober black coat contrasted
with the dantiest of Partisan costumes,
and the gold braid and buttons of the
naval and military men caught new
glitter from the sparkle of regal jewels
and the luster of the electric lamps re-
hected from crystal chandeliers. People
who never danced and who might not
have approved of dancing could not
stay away from the splendid scene, but
lined the walls and sat in the chairs
from which even the patronesses had
been tempted by the invitations of the
floor, keenly and happily observant OF
