The Charity Ball.


The masquerade ball given at the Armo
ry Wednesday evening was great success
1t afforded those who attended very en-.
| joyable time and netred about SlI5, which
under the judicious management of the La
dies Benevolent Society will do much to
alleviate distress among the deserving pool
| of the city.
The Armory was simply and Hastily drap
ed with pale yellow and heliotrope bunting,
the rostrum from which Wesener's populal
orchestra discoursed lively two-steps and
dreamy waltzes being prettily arranged with
Japanese umbrellas, bunting and screens.
AT eight O'Clock the gallery was filed with
over two hundred people, the receipts from
the sale of gallery tickets being $54 90.
AS the maskers made their appearance
they were greeted with applause. The first
to arrive We're the Two Johns, portly gen.
tlemen with straw hats, duck trousers and
palm leaf fans, who created no end of
amusement They proved to be j. M. Ter
bush and Fred Walton. After them two
rollicking Topsys made things lively for ev-
erybOdy in general and the Two Johns in
particular, and kept every one guessing as to
their identity which was revealed only by
the unmasking. They proved to be Misses
Maud Gates and Minnie Warren.
At S:45'Oclock the grand march was led by
Dr. Dowdigan as Spanish count, and Mrs.
j. M. Beckwith as Fairy Fay. Forty coup
les of maskers in every variety of costumes
followed them, and there was no end to the
merriment. Most of the dancers carried out
the character indicated by their costumes.
A tall lady representing an ancient and
angular maiden of thirty years ago, attred
in greer dress with demi-train and carrying
little parasol, brought down the applause
of the gallery with nearly every move she
made. She was Mrs. T. ]. Horsman, who
received many compliments for the amuse-
ment she caused.
Five brown clad monks with faces more
or less hideous, paid their attention to sis
tiers of charity, Topsys, queens ami prin-
cesses without discrim nation. They turned
out to be Messrs. l. ID. Fl. Ralph, f. Ii.
Watson, l.. G. Hall, DIR. Phippen and DR..
A. M. Hume. Ed Stanard as LII Hung
Chang and Charles Sackrider as Jonathan
Hayseed scored great hits.
Clayton Loring as ''Rastus on Parade
wore no mask except coat of burnt cork,
but his make up was SO good that many of
his intimate acquantances failed to recog-
nize him. His step would have made him
prize winner at a cake walk.
Lack of space prevents the mention of
many other costumes which made the scene
a gay one. At half past ten the unmasking
took place, and large number came down
from the gallery to join the dancers who
tripped the eight fantastic toe" until one
o'clock in the morning.
Coffee and sandwiches were served during
the evening at a table in the auditorium
Mesdames j. Terbush and Charles Howard,
upon whom fell the entire management of
he party, are entitled TO great praise for the
success of the party, both socially and
Among those who attended from out of |
own were Robert Allison, of ST.. Johns;
John Turner. of Durand; K. b. Green, of |
)livet; Mr.. and Mrs. Thos. Howard and

Halter Of Beings.

Mr.. r. III. Sherard comes to the de-
Tense of Mr.. Benson, who was recently
attacked because he said that Tennyson
was not a man of agreeable manners.
Mr.. Sherard declares that Mr.. Benson
only wrote what was true. He saws. in
the Bookman, that like most men who
have studied closely the human heart,
Lord Tennyson was a misanthrope," and
he then goes on to relate some personal
"reminiscences of his mother, who. as
Miss Wordsworth and with Mrs.-after-
wards Lady-Taylor visited the Laureate
at a house in Twickenham forty years
ago. The Taylors, Mr.. Sherard relates,
knew the Tennysons, and Mrs Taylor
had taken Miss Wordsworth to see the
then new Laureate. The poet, who
did not appear till he was sent for, came
into the room, we are told, looking very
gloomy, and only spoke in monosylla bles.
Mrs. Taylor rallied him on his morose-
ness. zone would say, Mr.. Tennyson, -
she said. that you were not pleased to
see visitors" Il don't think you would
be pleased to see visitors" cried Tenny-
son, "if you hired the Times for an hour
a day and the visitors just came dur
ing that hour When told by Mrs.
Taylor that he never visited his friends.
he replied morosely: Its ali very we'll
for you to talk. You have only to order
your horses to be put IN and drive over
here. When [ come to see you l have
to go to the expense of a cab or a railway
ticket" He afterwards left the room.

ARMIES is REARRESTED
The Habeas Corpus Proceed
ings Are Set Aside.
Sensational Sequel to the Incident At
tending schofeld's Retirement.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 6.-The sem
sational Armes case, arising out Of the
arrest of Maj. Armes and his confne-
ment by order of Gen. Schofeld, who
was acting secretary Of war and just
about retiring from command of the
army, had another sensational sequel to-
day when the district court of appeals
overruled the order of Judge Bradley,
who had released Armes on a writ of
habeas corpus, and ordered his rearrest
and that he be remanded to military
custody. Judge Bradley in his discharge
of Armes severely scored Gen. Scho-
fields counsel. Armes doubtless will ap-
peal the case to the United States Su-
preme court.
In it's opinion of the case the court
OF appeals says that Judge Bradley's ac-
ton was erroneous and should be re-
versed with costs. He directs him to
vacate his order discharging Armes, or
ders that a warrant be issued for his re-
arrest and that he then be remanded to
the custody of Col. CIosson of the Wash
lngton barracks, under whose direction
he was confined at the barracks
Maj. Armes is q retired army officer
with the rank of captain, and Gen. Scho-
fields order for his arrest was based on
an alleged insulting and yituperative let
