who have purchased dress goods recently,
have said they we're having gowns made for
the inaugural ball.
This is confrmatory of the rumor current
early last week. Correspondents OF Northern
papers are taking up the matter and several
prominent papers of New York and elsewhere

A Jolly Good Time.

A sleighing party of Eastview went to Mr..
and Mrs. Elias B. Arnold's at Smallwood, on
the evening of February "A, and on entering
the county road to their home the party were
met by several young men who were bent on
having good time, which proved itself by the
language used; in making the bend of the
road, where the drifts were too high 10 go
around, and as they went by the wind waited
back the message of breaking someone s
neck; but no damage was done, but all went
on their way, singing and shouting merrlly
for fear they might be met by others. At last
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Arnold came in
sight and light poured from every window,
making it look the welcome that was evinced
upon entering. All were entertained in va
rious ways. Games, music and playing. A
sumptuous supper was served.
Those present were:-Ehas Arnold and
wife, Edward Arnold aud wife, Hayden Boil
Enger and wife, Samuel Arnold and wife,
John Conway and wife. Fred. Walking and
wife, Gus Saddles and wife, and Mrs. Jennie
Ogg; Misses Eva Ward, Gladys 0gg, Lille

Glenn Ogg, VIM. Ranoul, Garfield 0gg, Ed.
Bollinger and George Diiman. After bidding
farewell to host and hostess all returned TO
their homes, going in the same direction.
On going down Beaver Run hill, where the
snow was piled high on both sides, the two
parties again met, when out of the depths OF
the snow came the loud, ihunderous voices
of the Carrollton boys in language which left
the whole atmosphere foul with their oaths.
One would have supposed a volcano had
had burst, and out popped two young men and
horse, carrying part of their sleigh, while the
other part was tied on the remaining whole
sleigh. When allwere Strengthened out, one OF
the right sleighing party shouted out peach

Pensioning of Teachers.

At a meeting Of the State Board of Educa-
ton last week, some very important questions
were discussed, among them was one on the
Pensioning Of Teachers who are financially
able 10 live without the pension.
The question Of pensioning. teachers was
brought before the board by the application
of teacher asking to be placed upon the re.
tired list. 1t WAS stated that the applicant
possessed considerable Of this worlds goods
and If was thought that the law when passed
did not contemplate granting a pension to
teachers who would not have TO depend more
or less upon the pension. While no action
was taken in this particular case, the general
conceusus of opinion was that the board should
look carefully into the matter OF granting
teachers pensions, and If the present law was
not complete, that some amendments should
be offered at the coming session Of the Legs
lature to guard against or prevent the grant
ing Of pensions to teachers who were not de-
pendent upon the States bounty for support
