SLOAN AND DWYER.

Tod Sloan, Americas most prominent
jockey and Charley Dwyer and his bride
left Chicago yesterday afternoon at $50
o clock on the Lake Shore limited for
New York. The little fellows departure
was rather hurried as the result of
cablegram from English people, asking
him to leave for England as soon as he
conveniently could Sloan has arranged
to take passage March for the other
side He will be accompanied by the
Dryers.
AS the trio hung over the end of an OBJ
servation car in the Lake Shore depot
they attracted plenty of attention. All
were dressed in quiet fashion, the dapper
Tod having on a dark suit throughout.
The handsome Mrs. Dwyer was attired
in a dark travelling cotume and her hus-
band looked the part of the successful
young sporting man, although his clothes,
like Sloans, We're extremely quiet. The
regulation old shoe was handed the bride
as the train pulled out and shower of
rice was sent after the party, Sloan
holding the door of the car shut so she
could not escape.
Sloan had nothing new to tell of his
plans for the coming year other than has
already been stated. He will remain in
sEngland daring the entire racing season.

THE ALLEGHENY
Came Out with a Rush. Two Boats
Out To-Day---River Rising.

The ice in the Allegheny after the
start from Greensboro on Tuesday
night began running out from points
farther up that stream yesterday morn
ing. A message from Capt Hender-
son, at Pittsburg, at 5 o'clock p. M,
brought word that the Allegheny was
on the rampage, full of ice from bank
TO bank. The Captain also. said that
the water was 145 feet at that point
and still rising. He thinks that the
Allegheny will clean herself of ice on
this run.
The Virginia passed up last night at
s o'clock. She had an excellent trip
The Leroy was up yesterday through
the flowing ice. She will be up again
to-day. The Lexington leaves at II a.
m. for Matamoras with lots of freight
On Friday will be the Ben Hur for
Parkersburg at II a. M, and the Ava
lon at noon for Pittsburg. The Bed
ford will be Saturdays boat for Par
kersburg.
The river is still rising. This is the
second rise at this point and is cut of
the Allegheny. At p. m. the marks
showed II feet 10 inches.
The Stella Moran passed up running
light yesterday at p. m.
Midnight-Water Is feet inches and
rising. River about two-thirds full of
Allegheny ice. Ice rotten and very

Last night very enjoyable and pic
turesque social function was celebrated
by the Mercantile Club at its spacious
apartments on Main street. It was
the Pink Domino Masque Ball given as
a Washington Birthday celebration
and also marking the end of the win
ter's festivities so far as the club is
officially concerned. Tie club includes
in its members an exclusive circle of
leading Hebrew society people of the
CITY and last night both ladies' and
gentlemen were seen at their best.
Everywhere in the club rooms were
reminders of the patriotic spirit of the
day and flags and bunting and unique
designs in which the stars and stripes
were conspicuous were in evidence up
On every hand. In the hall were life
sized busts Of President and Martha
Washington handsomely bedecked
with red, white and blue. There were
banks OF foliage upon every hand and
cut flowers upon the tables at the sup
per hour.
There were present thirty-fvecoupl
and rare picture Of mirth and garety
was presented when the program of
the evening was in3ugurated by the
grand march promptly at half past s
o'clock. All the guests were attired
in pink mother hubbard costumes with
hoods to match and wore a diversified
selection Of masks chosen for their gro
tesque and novel appearance. The
march was followed by the merry
dance to the tuneful rythm of Meisters
splendid orchestra, and when the sig
nal was given to unmask at 10: 80
o'clock the mirth was hearty and the
surprises numerous. There were Is
numbers upon the dance program in
Guiding waItzes, two-steps and lancers.
Supper was announced at 1880, after
which the dancing was resumed and
kept up until an early hour this morn
ing.
The feature Of the evening was the
cake walk and that popular burlespue
was rarely better performed than up
on this occasion. 1t was led by Mr..
Ben Kraus and the six couples partici
pating were as follows: Mrs. Bernie
Baer and Mr.. Will Gutman; Mrs. Bern
hard Horkheimer and Mr.. Dave Kraus;
Mrs. Lee Freidenreich and Mr.. E.
Buchanan; Mrs Leo. Wolf and Mr.. Sol
Frank; Mrs. Serelda Baer and Mr.. E.
Hanauer; Mrs. A. M. Rice and Mr.. Lee
Freidenreich.
The judges were unable to decide be-
tween the merits of the contestants
and the cake was cut into six sections
and piece given to- each couple.
The out-'o-town guests present were:
Miss Lewis, of San Francisco; Miss
Maxwell, of Milwaukee; Miss Wittel-
schoefer, Of Alpha, Mich, and Mr..
Gus Liebolt, of Piqua, o.
The success of the affair reflects
much credit upon the committee on ar
engagements, the good taste of which
was shown in the handsome decora-
tons, the amusements, the elegant sup
per and the delightful time experience
ed by the guests. The committee con-
sisted of Messrs. D. Kraus, chairman;
Leon Stein, Leonard Heyman, Joe H.
Baer and Leon Sopneborn.
The occasion was voted by all the
star event of the season and fitting
finale to the many affairs given by
the Mercantile Club during the season
just coming to a close.
