During the winter a series of four or five dances will be given, the firet in the early part of December. Richard, the two-year-oldson of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. S.

The | parties were at a**parlorsocial” last night and it fell to William’ slot tosee the young woman safely | home. The social was given near 10th and W | streets and the alleged assault occurred on 16th | street while William was on his way home with Lanra. She said that while going home he talked love to ber and finally made an in- | ulting proposal to her. which ‘she resented, | whereupon he drew a knife from his pocket for | the purpose of forcing her to accede to his | wishes. “While standing on 16th street she saw | two policemen, and when «he complained to | them Onticer Foley arrested him. The officer said that after taking him to the station he returned to the place where he made the arrest and found a knife. The prisoner denied the story about the knife, and said that he made no assault. He told the judge that he had been going with Laura for more than « year and she got Jealous last night because he became attached to another girl and id her more attention than he did Leura. m he said he took another girl home before heand Laura started. He also said that he drank philopena with Laura and several others aad that was what caused part of the trouble. ‘Lanra denied that the prisoner had been go- ing with her, and the court imposed sentence of three months. ee Transfers of Real Estate.

Speakers and Writers Sometimes Con- fronted With Embarrassing Difficulty. One of the queeenesses with which writers have to contend is an occasional puzzieheaded- nen over a perfectly well-known point of or- thography or grammar. A word that one has probably spelled correctly all one's life sud- denly swerves over into the doubtful orthogra- phy column. Is it “ingulf,” “engulf” or “‘en- gulph?” one queries, with pen poised. Is it “‘appal” or “spall?” “Fantasy” or “phantasy?” and so on indefinitely. To be sure, there is the dictionary, but, asks the Boston Common- wealth, who wants to learn his A B C's over again or to‘ look up the spelling of every- day words? Itisa curious fact that, left to themselves, the fingers will generally spell a word correctly. It is in the hesitation that cer- tainty is lost. There can beno doubt that the fingers of « writer nequire a sort of automatic education. Even when a doubt as to the right spelling of a word has crossed the mind the hand will usually bring the letters into form if given its course. It is.as if it consciously rea- soned, “I have always driven the pen so and 80, having begun so!” But once hampered by the try the reform ballot for the first time this year.

The matter is worse where parts of speech entangle themselves, Rules and regulations flatten themselves out and only a. helplei floundering among pronouns, antecedents and correlatives seems for the time possible. In one of Wilkie Collins’ published letters he writes: “For the Inst week, while I was finish- ing the story, I galloped ‘along without feel- ing it, like the old post horses. Do you remem- ber how the fore legs of those post horses quivered and how their heads drooped when they came to the journey’s end? That's me, my dear, that's me. Good God! In ‘me’ gram: ar? Ought it to be ‘I’? My poor father paid £0 year for my education, and I give you my sacred word of honor I am not sure whether it is ‘me’ or ‘I.’ Probably Wilkie Collins could have made a pretty straight guess on this point, but those little aberrations come upon us sometimes when we should be slow to stake anything upon our correctness; though another person, blundering in the same way, would be instantly arraigned before the bar of our correct and scandalized judgment Just as we serve merited condemnation upon fellow mortals who display the identical faults of which we are ourselves guilty. Voluble speakers and voluminous writers probably experience little of this trouble. The spouting geyser of words never fails them, and for this they are to be congratulated; yet it is a consolation to those of less oratorical ability to know that great writers and speakors learn to curb their flowing xpeech rather than give vent to it. Prof. Shedd states that in the last half of Webster's public life he learned to re- Ject the vague words that come thick and thronging when the mind is aroused. He grew more select and precise, and presently, as one id, “every word weighed a pound.” This style of speaking or writing cannot be driven through with the velocity enjoyed when one is | more careless of results, ‘The word fitly chosen is the word to be striven for, and, such is the | perversity of inanimate things, itis precisely the word that sometimes fails to come at call, BANANAS GOING TO WASTE.

For about a mile from shore the ice hdd a thin layer of snow over it, but we gradually left this sort of dazzling white carpet and at length reached the clear ice, when I*aw around me the most | wonderfal and bewitching sight I ever beheld. Owing to the transparency of the water, the ice presented everywhere the appearance of polished crystal, and although undoabtedly of passing over space. It gave me at first an un- | cxnny feeling to look over the side of the | sledge down into the black abyes beneath. This fecling, however, gradually changed to one of | fascination, till at last I found it positively ditti- | cult to withdraw my gaze from the awful depth with nothing but this sheet of crystal between me and eternity. [beliove that most travelers | on crossing the lake on the ice for the first time experience the same weird and fascinat- | influence. About half way across I stopped to make a sketch and take some photographs. It was no easy matter, as I found on getting out of the sledge, for the’ ice was so slippery that, inspite of my having felt snow boots on, I c ld herdly stand. ‘The death-like silence’ of urroundings was occasionally broker, how- . by curious sounds, as though big’ guns icing fired at rome ‘little distance.

Began to Burn the Ship for Fuel for the Farnaces. A CRUISER’S PET ROOSTER. ‘The Only Living Thing on the Chicago Which May Violate the Regulations. ‘From the Now York Tribune. Tt has been said of a maiden of advanced and edmitted age with that fondness for making pets of canary birds and maltese cate so com- mon—at least so attributed to be—among that otherwise lonely class of the human family that she changed her mind as to the advantages of single blessedness and got married. It is also said that a short time afterward an old— not necessarily in years,/but in constancy and friendshtp—friend made ‘her a call and noticed the absence of the pet canary, the pet parrot and the petcat. This was so unexpected a change that the member of the Society of Old Maids felt moved to ask where they were, and got this ree: “Oh, I find that dear husband Posseseoy all of their qualities and have disposed ‘One might suppose that because so many of the American war vessels have a pet dog, » pet cat, a pet goat or a pet something else that it is to remind the officers or the sailormen of the wife at home, for the navy regulations forbid the toleration of a woman on & vessel of war. But many mariners will declare that a woman isa nuisance on board a ship, while a pet bird or some four-footed animal is in- dispensable,in fact, is looked upon as a mascot, a harbinger of good luck. Many of these ts have been mentioned in print at times, at there is one that has been overlooked by newspaper men who have had the privilege of visiting the cruiser Chicago. He it a Fooster, an ordinary, common barnyard fowl apparently, with nothing in his first appear- ance to suggest that he is of more value than the fifteen-cente-a-pound fowl brought to Washington market every day by the Long Island or New Jersey truck farmer. But woe to the man or woman who would at- tempt to harm this omniverous bird — omni The steamship City of Belfast reached New ‘York late last night in a terrible condition after Dattling with storms for two weeks. Her coal gave out and Capt. Modlpin had to burn all the wood work about the decks in order to keep steam up and enable the vessel to reach here. ‘The steamship left Colombo on August 26 with cargo of sugar for Funch, Edye & Oo. of this city. She had favorable winds and weather and reached Port Said on 29 and Gibralter on October 12. After leaving Gibralter she encountered terrific storms, whic! biew with hurricane force. The veas washed | completely over her. | The burricane struck her at times with such force that she was whirled clear around. This heavy weather continued with but short intermissions of fair weather for two weeks, and her coal ran low as she got within five or six days’ sail from this port. She then ran into « succession of hail storms which have been sweoping the Atlantic for the last few days. COAL ALL GONE. Her coal finally gave out entirely four days ‘ago, and she was stripped of everything in the shape of wood about her decks for fuel. The crew's quarters were torn out and burned. The fore and main topmasts were next sent down and thrown into the furnace. The bowsprit and the derricks next went to feed the flames, and with this fuel the steamship was finally en- abled to get into port. The condition of the City of Belfast may be | understood when it is known that she was from To'clock yesterday morning until 10 o'clock last night ruuning from Fire Island to Quaran- tine.

There have been only a few additions of curious and some old English paintings loaned by Henry G. Marquand made since last closing. ‘The relics and paintings ferring to the first Atlantic cables bequeathed by Cyrus W. Field aré now on view. Next to the old masters on loan the most important things are sculptures by David d’Angers (bronze bust of the Frenck poct Beranger, taken from the original bust in plaster and given by Mr. Lucas of Paris) and by Olin L. Warner, Some of the objects from the Eliza- beth Coles bequest and further loans of n> great value sum up the additions to the objects shown before. Owing to the non-completion of the north wing many objects received by the museum remain for tho present in the packing cases. The many medals received by Mr. Field are arranged around the engrossed resolutions which Congres# presented to Mr. Field on the completion of the cable. ‘The largest medal is that presented by the United States govern- ment. Itcontains over two pounds of gold. ‘The pearl box which held it is displayed below.
