THE RECEPTION OF THE NATIONAL RIFLES—A BRILLIANT SCENE AT THEIR ARMORY. The first ball of the National Rifles for the Season, was given at Marini’s last evening. The hall was haudsomely and not too heavily deco- rated with flags, bannerets and guidons. Its light and airy appearance enhanced tie effect of the brilliant untforins of the hosts, and the rich toilets of the ladies. The arch above the plat- form was draped in the natlonal colors, and from its center depended the superb portrait of the Rifles’ popular captain, Col. Burnside, painted by Guillaume for their fair held last epring at the Masonic Temple. Guldons worked in purple and gold, and bearing the initials ““N. BR,” crossed the picture. These were presented to the company by the Duquesne Grays of Pittsburg. Above the portrait, at the rear, were three silken flags, of which the center ons was that won by the Rifles in the competitive drill at the east frout of the Capitol during the Jate Garfleld fair. The handsome bannerets bi tween the windows were the sanie that floated from the tent tops during the Rifles’ fair. The champion stand of colors displayed over the supper reoin door and the naine “The National Rifles,”-in large gilt and red letters over the dais, lent a further distinctive character to the pretty scene. The Marine Band began playing at nine; andthe first hour a promenade concert was enjoyed, the quests participating as rapidly as they were pre- sented. The wife of Senator Logan, assisted by BE. A. Clifford, Miss Burnside and Miss Wilshire, daughter of Representative-elect Wiishire, were the receiving group at the head of the hall, to whom Col. Burnside handsomely gave the introductions, standing at Mrs.Logan’s right. Mrs. Logan looked radiant ina recep- tion dress of electric-blue. corded with red, over a front of pearl colored brocade.

Why Sweet Eulalie McGirlygirt Could Not Marry Her Dear Geo, W. Simpson. From the Chicago Tribune. “T cannot marry you.” Against the mullioned windows of Brierton Villa the snow and sleet, driven with terrible force by a northeast gale, was beating fierce! and as the wind caught up the white particles and whirled them around in eddying circles it seemed to shriek in very glee at the destruction that strewed its path on every side. the mariner, as he lashed himself to a bottle of rum before going on deck, think of the cheerful fireside at home, around which clustered the bright-eyed children whose chubby arms would never again be twined around papa’s neck and their little rosebud mouths be lifted to his for a kiss in case he was run over by a railroad train | after getting ashore. A wild night, indeed! And yet, as George W. Simpson stood there in the parlor of Brierton Villa, he heeded not the storm, for in his heart there was a dull pain, and on his face a iook of anguish—a sort of. my-other-suspender-lias- broken expression that was indeed pitiful. £ ulatie McGirlygirt, to win whose love he would freely have sacrificed hia sister's chances for a matinee ticket, bed told him that his hopes were in vain; that he could never become her bonny ridegroom. Suddenly he turned to her and poke again. “But you might at least,” he said, “tell me j why it Is that all iy rose-tinted dreams ot future happiness must vanish and I go forth to peer forever into a gloomy vista of tocless stock- | ings and undershirts forever bereft of buttons. Surely my unswerving faith that you would hold out as long as the candy store did and my tireless devotion in the line of oysters deserves | amore kindly recognition than this.” “I know tliat all you say Is true,” replied the girl, choking back ‘a sob, “and I love you bet- ter than all the world beside; but I'cannot, But now George is by her side. “I demand passional ely, “why tt is you will not marry me if you love me as you say you do.” Looking up to him, her brown eyes suffused with tears and her dimpled cheeks aflame with blushes, Eulalie says in low, bitter tones: “Thave cold feet.” —— PUBLIC CHARITY. Brother Gardner Expounds it to the Lime Kiln Clab. From ths Detroit Free Press. “Thold heah in my han’,” began Bro. ward- her as the triangle sounded and Samuel Shin laid aside his kormonican, ‘I hold heah a letter from one of de charitable societies of Detroit axin’ if dis club kin be depended on to ald in de good work dis winter. In sartin cases dis club kin be depended on fur a ton of coal, a cord of wood, a bar'l of flour or a $10 bill. In sartin odder cases dis club won't cum down wid as much es ashingle nail. Public charity in dis kentry is a curus thing.” “Tt insists dat every man shall airn his own libin’, an’ den it turns in an’ supports de class who will starve sooner dan work.” “It am de enemy of whisky, an’ yet as soon Gertie Smith, Miss } und Mrs. W.

DISTRICT AUDITOR TICHENOR to-day issued the following order to his clerks: “To prevent imposition upon laborers and other employes of the District government who may be unable to read manuscript, it is hereby directed that where it is not reasonably certain that the person entitled to receive a check can read they will, In every ease, be notified by the pay clerk, on’ delivery of the check, the exact amount which it represents.” THE NEW POLICE STATION. Engineer Commissioner Lydecker, accompa- nied by Major Morgan, Lieut. Arnold, of the first police precinct, and others, Tuesday made an inspection of the new police station build- ing, on 12th street, which has recently been completed by Contractor Hughes, and after an examination of all the rooms and seeing all its advantages over similar buildings, Major Ly- decker pronounced it a good job and signified his acceptance of it. It will now be occupied very soon. COMPLAINT HAS BEEN MADE by Tax-collector Cook of the annoyance given his clerks by the noise and confusion made by the paying off of District laborers and other employes in the room of the collector of taxes. This custom has prevailed for some years past. It brings swarms of laboring men to the front part of this office, and, as they have to wait for their turn, lines are formed ot two's, and they take possession of the door and form a long procession down on the sidewalk for a long dis- tance sometimes, obstructing the taxpayers on their way to pay taxes, and giving confusion and interruptions to the computing clerks. It is likely that some other room will be tound for this duty. 3 Se ae ‘Tue APPOINTMENT OF FLERT OFFIceRs,—Secre- tary Chaniler has issued the following general order: “Hereafter fleet officers will not be ap- j tpene tis A squadron or station unless there shall more ‘vessels attached to such sir, ation, aa the number of enlisted as whisky makes a pauper it eupports him. “It flatters de man who git a tew dollars ahead, an’ yet demands a sheer of dat moncy to aid de idie an’ dissipated. “Public charity comes as near ben’ pola it faced fraud as any sentiment you kin name. encourages laziness, by providin’ fur de Laz; It cucourages drunkenness by providin’ far families ot drunkards.

Where Work is Pientifal and Work- ingmen and Women Are Few. Correspond neeof the New York Evening Post. New Yorx, November 22, 1882. “What can I find to do?” I arrived In the city of Portland, Oregon, on Saturday afternoon, September 9, at three o'clock. I wanted aready- made suit of clothes for rough work on the tnountains near Baker City, for which place I | had to leave at nine o'clock Monday morning. I | found in one of the twolarge merchant-tailoring establishments something that would do with a | little alteration in the coat and pantaloons. 1 returned to my hotel disappointed, bat half | amused over the vain effortsof the dealer toget | @ half-hour’s work done on the clothes in order | to make them wearable. He first appealed to his | regular tailors. They answered from their Turk- | | ke position on the bench, in true Turk-like | | Phrase, that they wouida’t draw a stitch more | beyond their present stints. Then themerchant | sent out to sundry women who did work for ) him. The answers came back that they would take in no more work that day. After every | Tesource had been exhausted, he gave it up, saying: “I must lose the sale of the clothes; I ‘can't get any one to aiter the nd I might have known thet !t would be so On the start. You have no notion how independent labor is in country. My folks work pretty well, but y are not regular; will ie off without warn- inz, and work pretty much as they, rather than jas {. mind when they do work. “They are all | | ‘cultus,” |tried as hard as I can for the past two | mouths to find any fair journeyman. tailor | who will sit on the bench ‘and be reliable to do odd jobs like this, and I can't get any one. | Thave offered three dollars a day, and I would ; give It right along. and steady work every day in the year, but it’s no use. I can't get any one.” INDE! DENCI The story of the Discontented Tailor was re- | peated in that of the Hotel Proprietor, the Con- j tractor, the Boss Mechanle—indeed, almost | every vocation with which I came in contact on | that coast. The country itself is so inviting, and rewards so richly individual proprietors, that every one who goes there is under const: he came, of going Into emp with begins to set up for himself. The conse- quence is that hired inbor, in all departinents, is ecarce and ot poor quailty. Those who hire out do £0 only for a short period, until they can get into shape to work for themselves. The result is that competition, the great factor of good ser- vice, is almost utterly wanting. Workingmen look upon their present service for others as only temporary, and consequently are restless and anxious to advertise the fact that they are really independent men, only deing this for the time being. For instance, once, after sitting a | While in silence, waiting for the attendant to in- form me what he had for breakfast, he also in | | silence, I ventured to break the solemn pause. | j ‘Well, sir, I would Ike my breakfast.” “Well, by —, so would I, too!

Luckily I recovered it. A CHANCE FOR WORKERS OF ALI. SORTS. The remedy consists in more extensive move- ments of good laborers, servants, ete., from this country to that one where they are wanted. The railroad companies want them. Their Cuinese | labor, now that immigration is stopped, is so in- adequate to the demands of the situation, that | important railway extensions have been ata | standstill purely from this cause. . Farmers want them. Railroad building, ill supplied with labor as it is, has drained off all that is available to so great an extent that farmers during August literally went begging for har- vest hands. Building contractors want them. I could mention many localities where [ know not | merely private residences but business blocks | and public structures are waiting for workmen | Carpenters, bricklay and mechanics enough cannot be found. The saw-mills and logying- camps offered high prices for men during July and August. The wages offered were good— | raised far beyond the average that has hereto- | fore been paid—but few workmen presented themselves, and they would work only for a while, and then lie off and spend their money. There are few drones out there, very few men lounging about depots and hotels, almost none for extra services, so that every one has to | walt on himself. No one of either sex need be idle, indeed can afford to be idle, when Industry | pays so well. The need of good, serviceable | Women is as great as that of men. Take it in | the matter of house servants. “Theve a wife and three children, all my fam- ily,” said a banker to me une day. “I will gladly pay $35 a month and board for a good cook or | competent house servant.” | Said another: “I positively cannot find a nurse good for anything. I would pay $5 a week and | board if I could have my wife relieved of the | ecare of the children and drudgery of the nur- sery.” | Said a restaurant keeper: “We can't get | Women who will superintend the kitchen, much | less wait on table.” The proprietor of the furnished rooms T occu- pled in Walla Walla was one day at the wash- tub washing out the linen of the house. I in- quired: “Can't you get women to do the wash- | ing?” “No,” was the answer; “I cannot get | help: and, much as this business pays, I think I will quit. It is wearing me out; making the | | beds, doing the chamber-work; everything my- self, with the help of one boy. ’ I've got to quit or break down.” “Can't you get a Chinaman ?” THE CHINESE. ‘Well, no; not one that will stay: not one | that will get me so mad in aday I can’t stand it. You know, a Chinaman will hire to do but one thing. If he is chambermaid, he won't cook, | or cut wood, or do an errand, or oblige one in any way. And then they are so shiftiess and no- | account 1 can’t get along with them and their independent ways. They come at 6 in the morn- ing, Sundays at 8, and they quit at 5, and then cut a big hole out of the middle of the day when they go off to their den somewhere and smoke opium or.tobacco. Then they ruin every- thing they touch. I could not afford to havea Chinaman do my washing. These flannels, for instance, would be utterly spoiled. You should see how they rub the butions and ravels out of everything. They just destroy, and don't care.” I think every traveler here will bear witness to that. A good American laundry would pay well in every town and village of every five hun- dred inhabitants in that country. In Portland alone three hundred industrious girls can find | employment as house servants, at wages averag- ing $20 to $25 per month. I read in a morning paper this in the local colamn: “A girl wants a situation, as per ad. else- where. Who speaks for her first?” Women are so universally respected in that country thata girl could go there anywhere from the east without achaperone. The trouble is she would, soon after she reached there, call some chap her own, and that is whatis the trouble with femate labor in that coant: T have read the question with which this letter opens se many times in correspondence, ad- dressed to myself and friends, that i am relieved thus publicly to answer it once for ail.
