The Gar Of Russia died last
Wednesday. He is succeeded by
his eldest son, who will WELD the
scepter under the title of Nicholas

more liberal in his views.

WHATcoM, Feb. 17-ISpeciai Balls,
most of them of a public character have
been unusually numerous of late. Nearly
all of them have been for the benefit of
some organization, and most of them have
been we'll patronized. This was not the

Organization made up TO considerable
extent of young men who have business or
property interests here, and the members
battered themselves that the business men
and property owners generally would be
glad of an opportunity to testify their ap-
probation OF the work of the department
by literally patronizing the ball. But there
seems TO have been some misunderstand-
ing of the object OF it, and as conse-
quence the attendance was small, only
about fifty couples being present They.
however, enjoyed themselves greatly until
late hour. 4 considerable number of
Fairhaven iiremen were present, and their
friendly interest was fully appreciated by
the local department.
