Bowling Uluti flail. Was One of theGrand est Events of thb Season. The Armory Wu Crwdt4. Uuj Attn4 ta Blsaply ttee the Buk rFel Dlda't Heerls Tfcelr rrUntf. If the masquerade ball glren last year bj the German-American bowling club vat a success, the one gi?en bj the same org&nit&tioQ at the Armorr last eyening was doubly so. Tbe Light Guard Armory wu crowded with thews who haJ come simply to ad mire tbe beautiful costumes or to enjoy a heart j laugh at tbe ludicrous one. Tbe decorations were beautiful and showed marktd taste and a sense of ex-qoisiteuniqu-ness, presenting a Tery at tractive and inviting appearance. Tbe whole ball was one bower of evergreens and flags of all nations, tbe American red, white and blue predominating. At the north end of the ball was the band stand, decorated with golden Ijres and stars, set off with a background of blue and baring Chinese lanterns bnng from tbe front and bunting draped in a way which gave a Tery pleasing effect. Here tbe Fifth Regiment band was stationed and played their Tery best. In the middle of the west side of the ball was tbe throne of Prince Carnival. This was of the same-style of decoration as tbe bandstand and was supported by a buge pedestal and four pillars of gilt with spangled stars in a red background. Oo either side were two gilt pillars, stand ing on red and golden pedestals and hav ing flags of several European states, with tbe American emblem on top, extending on each tide. At exactly 9:30 tbe band struck up a stirring march and Frince Carnival, her alded by two knights in glistening armor and headed by two dignitaries and two pages, entered the ball and took bis sta tion on tbe throne, when the other maskers passed in procession before him and as they did so each lady was pre sented with a bouquet and then the fun grew fast and furious. Tbe grand march was in charge of that prince of promp ters, Riuey, and was led by Frince Carni val and the Fisher Maiden, the effect of which, as the maskers in their handsome costumes passed and repassed, crossed and recroBsed, was beautiful in the ex treme, and the way it was carried out reflects much credit upon Mr. Kiney. Tbe clowns from tbe various points of tbe country arrived by the (new) Lake Superior air line on time and dropped from tbe ceiling. Among tbe vaet num ber er noted pernons represent ins fn di?"', trailing tji.neii, to polire tnen, Italian count, German dignitaries, soidiPM, a farmer a&d bis wife, a trapper trirl, two brides, numerous flower girl, girden girls, queens of night, tbe little fisher maiden, one of the new mail car riers, a southern colonel and wife, and even did Nick himself. There were also imitations of Bosch's Superior Stock beer and Koppelman's cigar, "A Mild One." In tbe middle of a quadrille tbe request to unmask was made and many were tbe snrprises when people recognized their friends whom tbey beforee were unable to distin-guish. After this, dancing was indulged in br all and tbe light fantastic was tripped until a late hour. Shortly after midnight supper was Berved In the ban-, quet ball. Tbe bowling club certainly covered itself with glory last evening and sustaiaed its well known reputation as rntertainers of the highest class, . Much credit is due the various commit tees, but particularly to that of decora tion. The design for tbe throne was a masterpiece of Mr. William Monroe, from . the ideas and sketches of President En gelbardt and Mr. Wilmes, of the Tama rack. Mr. Herman Iiibber Is also entitled to much credit for bis work on decorat log tbe ball. .Vested a Seat Mam. Tbe social and supper given at the Tamarack school house last Saturday evening for tbe benefit of Richard Little, the man who was so badly hurt at tbe Tamarack Junior mine last week, and bis family, was very well attended, con sidering tbe fact that it was arranged on yery abort notice. Tbe affair was in charge of tbe ladies of the 'lamarack mine location and they deserve great credit for the successful outcome' of tbe affair. Supper was served, and a good one at that, and all who attended went away satisfied that their money had been spent in a very charitable and wor thy way and that tbey bad received the full yalue in return. Something like $40 was cleared by tbe supper. Little was resting well at the Tama rack hospital yesterday afternoon, but bis condition is still considered very seri ous by tbe physicians. Tomer Optra lloo Crowded Loot J.vrulux. "Judcing by tbe frequent and hearty applause of lust evening and tbe tremen dous bouse parked to tbe doors, tbe James II. Urown dramatic company gave marked nntinfaction. There never - was a larger audience at one time in tbe Opera House. Tbe bits of the evening were made by Harry Sutherland and J.T. McEuery in . comply roles. Tbey were especially good, although as a matter of fact there is not a "stick." in tbe compuny. Last evening's performatce was the "Mack Flag," toniu lit they produce tbe plun ger." lot nljelng song and dance spe cialties, and novel stage contrivance; onescet.o icprpsenting an incoming train on the elevated road. Tbe play j com paratively t.e w and np to date and will be a winner with this strong company." Tbe above is from tbe Evening Leader, of Menoraine, and tbe company will open a week's engagement at the Opera lions next Monday. Aaother Cow Coo. Justice Curtis' court has been the scene 44 maty interesting cow cases, but tbe ooe this aittraooo promise to be more taterrating. Tbi i a rase of a kicking tow and di&r somewhat from tbe pre vious cast, as to this damage are claimed. It ewns that Jacob Pflkas, tbe plaintiff, bad traded cows with tbe drfenianU, Caroline llendrickson, John Toryioenaud hi iti, Margaret Torvi neo And had given tbe said defendants 15 for the trade. IleaJso claims that when the bargain was made the said defendants warranted tbe cow not to kick and that was part of tbe con tract. However, as soon as Pjlkas got bis uvw cow and was In the act ol milking it, tba cow failed to keep tbe agreement of its lormer owner, and kicked so hard that it knocked the milk pail over and that tbe plaintiff was required to tie the cow's hind feet down when milking it afterward. The plaintiff therefore does not wunt to pay tbe 13 and has brought action for breach of warranty. A jury has been summoned and the trial takes place this afternoon. Attorney A. W. Kerr rep resents the defendant and Larson A LeGendre will appear for the plaintiff. Fertile BeaefllofSt. Louis Can rrfcu A comic opera, rendered in the French language, was presented by a number of young people at the Opera House last evening to a crowded house and all were well pleased with theentertainment, Tbe play was got up for tbe benefit of St. Louis church and something like $200 was cleared from the concert. It was a three act drama, entitled, "The Start for California," and eight characters were represented, all taking their parts very well. Between the acts tbe audience was entertained bv Mr... Panaude in . several very fine selections. Early in tbe evening supper was served by the ladies in the rooms below tbe ball and a great many took their evening meal there, thus help ing along tbe good cause. Last Friday afternoon a parcel was taken from tbe back of tbe express office. Tbe loss (18) will not be borne by either the express company or the owner, but by tbe express messenger in whose care it was, and therefore it is to be hoped the three boys (tbey are known) who took tbe parcel and were seen to run down tbe railroad track with it will send tbe con tents to either the express office or tbe New office, otherwise tbey will get into trouble. The parcel was for a lady resi dent and therefore tbe boys may baye turned tbe contents over to their mothers or some female relative and if such is the case such person should see it is returned to the rightful owner and at once. itlasquerfd Maturdaj- Evealo.

Carlylo certainly taught as to have a keen scent for cant and to abbor It, though his horror of cant certainly some times became a cant of his own. Tbe habit of denouncing cant is Tery apt to blind na to tbe cant of denunciation. Until men leave off eloquent generali ties and look quietly into , their own hearts without blast of trumpets and glorification of themselves for stripping themselves of cant they will not strip themselves of the very habit which most endangers their truthfulness and sincer ity. Carlyle taught us to despise cant, but hardly to detect it in" ourselves. His genius was as' impatient as bis Industry was patient. There was no toil which he would not go through to make his books workmanlike, but a great many of his carefully compiled facts proved to be more or less adapted to spoil the effect of bis impatient epi grams. A great part of Carlyle's genius was a genius for happy exaggeration, though it waa a kind of exaggeration which brought out, as nothing else could have brought out, the real drift and sig nificance of social and political facts. Never did any man proach tbe duty of submitting to wise authority more elo quently, but never waa there a man of genius who was less inclined to subju gate bis own mind to the authority for which be profiled so Platonic an affec tion. He bss flaIi all manner of bril liant lights upon character and history. bat he has not found for ns any coherent code of wisdom or any valuable avenue to religions truth. London Spectator.
