Despite the very inclement weather OF
Thursday evening, the Charity ball at the
Opera house, was complete success from
every standpoint, and the Gardiner Cloth.
ing Club, under whose auspices the ball
was held, is to be congratulated that Its
treasury fund will be increased by over
800. Had the weather been pleasant, un-
doubtedly the attendance would have been
double what it was, although the 90
couples who danced would have had but
little room to spare, and be comfortable.
1t was one of the prettiest social affairs
that ever took place in this city. Mona
ghans' Orchestra of five pieces furnished
some of the latest music in its usual pleas
ing manner, and to the efficient floor COM
mittee, comprising c. F. Swift, as direc-
tor, assisted by G. L. Tyler, W. G. Ellis,
C H. Gray and G. B. Barlow, are the par
Elephants indebted to great extent for the
pleasure of the evening. Dancing con-
tinued until about l o'clock.

LIGHT AND AIRY.
Concerning Weather.

When the atmospheric forces and all that sort
of thing
Bring the cold and cutting winter season here,
And the iridescent snowfakes of which the po-
cts sing
Chase themselves in chilly frolic through the
air;
When the winds are penetrating and the frost
is on the ground,
And pedestrian locomotion's rather slow;
When the cars are half an hour late whenever
homeward bound
Because the horses can't get through the
snow,
Then the voice of Daan arises, and ho tells a
funny tale
AS to how he loves the gentle summer days,
When the flowers nod and whi.per in the love-
ly hawthorn dale
And he basks beneath the smiling suns
bright rays.
But when the whirligig of time brings "gentle
summer" on,
And he willis and melts beneath the scorch-
ing disk,
The inconsistent mortal sings another kind of
song
As to how he loves the winter, cold and brisk.
