THE DAY AFTEIi TOE BALL Some of the Criticisms Being Indulged in Concerning the Management. The Amount of Money It Placed in Circnlation in Business Circles—Probabilities as to the Profits. The charity ball was discussed in all its phases yesterday, and the comments were various. In a social way, it is generally agreed it was a great event—unprecedented in Indianapolis in the size of the assemblage and the elegance of the costumes, but few can be found who are willing to allow it to pass without mention of some particular fault in the arrangements, the management, or the conduct of someone connected with the ball. There is good excise for some of the objections, and undoubtedly the affair was much at fault in various ways, but for the consolation of all who are disposed to be dissatisfied, it may be well to recall the philosophical remark that “all perfect things are saddening in effect.” Besides, balls of the character given at English’s Opera-house, are not common occurences in Indianapolis, and it is hardly fair or'reasonable to bo too exacting with anew social enterprise such as the charity ball was. Doubtless those who are most critical now will be the most eager to have the social experiment repeated. It is suggested gratuitously, however, that if another such hall is ever given in Indianapolis, and strangers are in attendance, they will doubtless be more impressed with the hospitality of the people of the capital and will enjoy themselves much better if they receive the attention that is due them from the floor committees than if left to take care of themselves. Besides being a great social event, the hall was a benefit to the city in a business way. It will not yield as much to charity as the Flower Miseion fairs have in previous years. The ball was the means of putting into circulation in business channels, an amount variously estimated at from SB,OOO to $12,000, which went into the coffers of the dry goods merchants, the dressmakers, the milliners, the tailors, the hack-owners, the flower dealers and the hotel proprietors. The Flower Mission fairs usually netted between $4,000 and $3,000 for charity, hut did little for business. The expenses of the ball aggregate about S3OO, and the receipts from the sale of tickets, although the total amount is not definitely known yot, will probably be somewhere between $3,000 and $3,500. Os the amount in excess of expenses, onehalf will go to the Light Infantry, and, therefore, the charity organization society will get little more than SI,OOO. Some of the managers think that the amount will fall considerably below these figures. As the tickets were distributed among a number of committees, the result of the affair, financially, will not be known definitely until after the meeting of these committes is held today, and their reports presented. One of the managers claims that the total amount received through the sale of tickets by the members of the Light Infantry was only sl37,‘and, in consequence, there is some protest against the fulfillment of the agreement to divide the net proceeds with the company. Whether the ball proves a success financially or not, it was certainly an expensive affair to many of those who attended. A young society man furnishes figures to show that it required $11.75 to attend with a lady, the items of expense being as follows: Ticket $5.00 Supper 1.50 Carriage (two couples together) 1.50 Box 2.00 Flowers 1.50 Checks 25

Total $11.75 The costumes were nearly all made especially for the occasion, and cost from $75 up to several hundreds of dollars each, and tho gentlemen had expenses in the matter of dress amounting to a considerable sum. These figures are only given to show that the ball was a pretty heavy tax on the class who have moderate incomes, and in consequence will have noticeablo effect somewhere. The opera houses will doubtless be the sufferers. There are few of the young men earning their own spending-money who attended the charity ball that will not find it necessary to adjust the luxury to their incomes by curtailing on other amusements for a time. A rather laughable and somewhat significant incident relating to this phase of the matter occurred yesterday, in a group where the report of the ball was being read. A business man was glancing over the list of names of persons who were present. “Mr. A remarked the man perusing the list; “well, where did he get money to go? He owes me SSO, and has protested that he wasn’t able to pay. Mr. B is a man who borrowed $lO from me about three months ago, to pay part of bis rent, and I’ve heard nothing from him since. Mr# l C is a clerk, and gets SSO a month. How he can afford to go to a swell hall is more than I can understand. Mr. D’s wages were garnisheed a few days ago, but it seems that he has money for this affair. And here's Jim Rice’s name among the list of persons present. Surely the Dime Museum was not open last night.’’ The amount spent on flowers by some of the ladies would purchase a winter’s supply of fuel for some families. The flowers worn by one lady cost S2O, and, from appearances, there were a number of others who were equally as extravagant in their expenditures on this feature of their toilet. A fair illustration of how the working people regard the little extravagances of this kind is given in a story told by a young man in one of the State offices, who sent the janitor of the building to pay for fine flowers, which he had sent to a young lady. With an expression of indescribable amazement the fellow asked, upon his return, how much he was expected to pay the flower dealer. “Why, sir,” said the janitor, “he charged me a dollar and a half.” “That’s all right,” replied the young society man. “A dollar and a half for flowers! I never heard of such extravagance. A dollar and a half for flowers! I shall tell my wife.” The astounded janitor returned in a few moments and frightened the young society man almost into spasms by remarking that “those beautiful flowers were well made.” “Do you mean to say that they were not natural flowers?” “Sure and of course they were not. If they had not been they wouldn’t have been worth more than a cent apiece.” One of the mistakes in the management, it is generally conceded, was in putting so much stress upon the requirements regarding dress. It was wholly unreasonable to suppose that any lady would go to tho ball attired in a street costume, or anything but the very best that she could possibly afford. Day after day, however, the public was informed that “no lady not in full dress would he permitted on tho floor.” As might have been expected, it terrified all who did not posses unlimited resources. Many whose dress would have met all the requirements of tho occasion were frightened out of all thought of going to the ball by the fear that they might be humiliated by the floor committee objecting to tho style of their dress. Rather than risk anything of this kind, they stayed at home, whereby charity lost much of the money that it might have received. Prior to the ball, much was said about the Governor’s staff, which would be preseut in all its glorious gorgeousness. The Governor’s 6taff, however, was conspicuously absent. Why, no body seems to know, definitely, but there are various conjectures. Mr. Pierre Gray, tho Governor’s private secretary, when asked about the matter, statsd yesterday that there was no particular reason for the absence of the members of the staff, but afterwards added that they had received no invitations until long after everybody else had been invited. The information comes from another source that it was because there was no member of the State militia represented on the committees, and still another reason suggested is that the State militia could not be expected to give countenance

to an affair which was partly for the benefit of a military company that had only recently withdrawn from the State service. SCOTTISH RITE MASONS.. Closing Exercises of the Convocation—List of Candidates Receiving the Degrees. The work of conferring the degrees of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite was completed at a late hour last night. The convocation has been a successful one, both in point of attendance and number of candidates, and will long he remembered by those who were fortunate enongh to be present. The Rite draws into its ranks representative men from all sections of the State—judges, lawyers, doctors, merchants, etc. —who take advantage of these semi-annnal reunions to renew the bonds of social and fraternal love. Indiana Consistory has now about 730 members, 500 of whom are located outside of the city, and this number is increasing at the rate of 75 to 100 a year. The degrees conferred yesterday were the chivalric and philosophic grades, numbering fourteen, and are controlled by Indiana Sovereign Consistory, S. P. R. S., under command of Col. N. R. Ruckle, 33°. Most of the degrees in this body are communicated, but the principal one—Knight of Kadosh—is exemplified in full form, and brings into play all the resources of the Rite. The candidates receiving the thirtysecond degree were as follows: Lafayette—Hazael Francisco andC. R. Crawley. Evansville—Moses N. Ross. Terre Haute—R. A. Campbell and Thomas B. Long. Auburn—C. A. O. McClellan. Elkhart—Thomas Stephenson. Lavvrenceburg—J. F. Rolf. Kendallville— S. T. Williams, J. L. Gallup, Jacob Reyher, E. E. McCray. Orland—E. L. Parker. Brimfield—C. W. McMeans. Albion—W. F. Clapp. Port Wayne—A. D. Cress!er. Logansport—W. B. Mesner. Peru—A. W. Quackenbush. Milford—P. F. Miles. South Bend—C. A. Francis. LaPorte—Edward Hawkins. Waterloo—R. W. Mcßride. Indianapolis—W. H. Gray and C. W. Mansur. The new faces seen at the Rite yesterday were: John Lillie, jr.. Fort Wayne; M. S. Drake, Ladoga; John Andrew, Brazil; Martin T. Krueger, Michigan City; H. M. LaFollette, Lebanon; Charles H. Frame, Franklin; J. B. Kimball, Kendallville; Lou M. Neely, William Patterson, Wiliiam P. Jenkins, Abbott L. Johnson and John A. Burson, Muncie; Lyman Walker, Peru; J. Wymond, Aurora; George W. Ayres, Peoria, 111.; H. LaTourette, Covington; J. E. Mathers and H. F. David, Lafayette; J. J. Childs and R. T. Coverdale, Cincinnati; Charles E. Ford, Richmond; N. K. Elliott and W. E. Perryman. Terre Haute; F. M. Swope, Seymour; H. C. Buckingham, Baltimore, Md. - County Commissioners Retire. Frederick Ostermeyer and J. M. Guion, on account of expiration of term of office, retired from the Board of County Commissioners yesterday. At the next meeting, in December, Albert Sahm and W. O. Reveal will take their places as members of the board. The old commissioners completed their unfinished business by granting to George Weaver, a sub contractor under Cowio & Adams in the construction of the work-house, SSB for extras claimed in tearing down and rebuilding a wall not contemplated in the architect’s specification. He wanted S6OO. Francis M. Gordon was appointed justice of the peace in Franklin township, in place of Charles C. Weaver, resigned. The county auditor was ordered to advertise for bids for the county’s stationery supplies for next year. Wharton R. Clinton* by virtue of custom in giving the honor to the number who has the shortest time to serve, will become president of tho new board.

The Odd-Fellows Adjourn. The annual meeting of the Grand Lodge of Odd fellows closed yesterday. There was an exemplification of the unwritten work by Grand* Instructor McQuiddy, but the special order of the morning session was the annual election of officers, which resulted as follows: Grand Master—J. B. Kenner, of Huntington. Deputy Grand Master—A. N. Grant, of Kokomo. Grand Warden—L. T. Michener, of Shelbvville. Grand Secretary—B. F. Foster, of Indianapolis. Grand Treasurer—T. P. Haughey, of Indianapolis. Representative to Sovereign Grand Lodge —John F. Wildman, of Muncie. Board of Trustees—William Wallace, John W. McQuiddy and J. W. Ferguson. After tho installation of the newly elected officers, in the afternoon, the lodge adjourned. Frank Weaver Adjudged Insane. About three months ago Frank Weaver was released from punishment by Aoting Judge Ross Clarke, provided he would leave the city, never to return. Charles Kregelo secured this concession for him, besides providing him with means to go to St. Louis, where employment had been obtained for the young man. Within three weeks ora month Weaver returned to the city, but as he behaved himself and represented that he was doing well, the authorities made no effort to punish him on the conviction that rested against him in the Criminal Court. In St. Louis ho was a street-car driver for a while, but lately his incoherent talk, and claims of being immensely wealthy, caused doubts as to his sanity. He was brought to the city yesterday, and Esquire Pease and Smock held an inquest of lunacy upon him. They adjudged him insane. He was taken to the Insane Hospital. Anything for an Office. The unreasonable desire of some men to hold office is pretty well illustrated by an incident that is told at the United States marshal’s office. Marshal Hawkins has the power to appoint a resident deputy at New Albany, whose services are required only during the five or six days in the year that court is held there. The position yields only $25 or S3O a year. There have been a number of applicants for the appointment, and a few days ago State Senator Benz came to Indianapolis to see the Marshal in the interest of a man down in Crawford county, who wanted tho place. The Marshal wrote to the Crawford county applicant telling him that the deputy would have to be a resident of Floyd county. An answer has been received from the applicant stating that he is ready to move to Nesv Albany with his family. Delegates to the Farmers’ Congress. The annual session of the Farmers' Congress will be held in Indianapolis, beginning Dec. 2, and it will call together a large number of prominent agriculturists, representing all parts of the United States. At tne request of the officers of the organization, the Governor, yesterday, appointed John Q. A. Seig, of Corydon, and N. A. McClung, of Rochester, delegates at large, to represent Indiana, and the following named delegates from the different sections of the State: William M. Cockrum, Oakland City; Samuel Hargrove, Union; Henry C. Johnson, Loogootee; D. J. Terhune, Linton: D. F. Willey, Charleston; J. H. Matlock, Brownstown; T. W. W. Sunrnan, Spades; Edward Kessing, Greensburg; W. S. Cox, Greencastle; John F. May, Bloomington; J. B. Nicholson. Newcastle; Danioi T. Morris, Union City; L N. Cotton, Trader’s

Point: J. L. Carson, Shelbyville; R. C. McWilliams, Rockville; James Goodwin, West Lebanon; John W. Kise, Lebanon; W. A. Magee, Sharps ville; D. W. Tomlinson, Logansport; Henry R. Wane, Crown Point; James Votaw, Portland; L. T. Bagley, Huntington; A. W. Hendry, Angola; E. B. Gerber, Ligonier; John P. Oaks, LaPorte; Joseph Reppy, Syracuse. The appointments are simply honorary, so far as the Governor officially is concerned, as thero is no pay allowed the delegates. <. Mr. Schevvel Disappears. H. E. Schevvel, printer of the Indiana Newspaper Union, for several days has been in trouble, supposod to be due to differences with his family. Last evening while with a friend near the Union Depot, he showed a desire to be alone, which excited the friend’s suspicions. He took hold of Schevvel to persuade him to go home, but the latter, giving his companion his pocket-book with the request to hand it to his (Schevvel’s) wife, suddenly ran toward Tennessee street and thence to the old iron foundry, where his pursuers lost track of him. It is feared he will attempt suicide. He expected to meet his wife at tho depot on her return from a visit to her friends in Brooklyn, this State. Prosecuting Lottery Dealers. Information was filed against A1 Glazier, Lou Seaton and Charles Watson for selling lottery tickets and policy numbers. Glazier comes under the condition attaching to his promise to quit the business in consideration of Judge Norton imposine a small fine in the cases against him tried last week. This was to the effect that the fine for a repetition of the offense would be S6OO. He gave SSOO bond for his appearance for trial. Seaton and Watson were released on S2OO bail each. A Drunken Driver’s Freak. About 7:30 o’clock, last night, a farmer going home on a hay-wagon, and somewhat the worse for liquor, drove into a West Washington-street car, near the Belt railroad. The tongue of the wagon pushed through the side of the car, injuring badly Otto Kinney, of No. 283 Coburn street. He was taken to his home in Planner & Hommown’s ambulance. Tho farmer’s name could not be ascertained, as he pulled out of the scene and drove away hurriedly. Boys’ Winter Caps at Bamberger's. Red Tag.
