PEESOSAL AND SOCIETY.

Social Manners and Customs Discussed. The Bea-Har performances, on Tuesday and Wednesday, were at much society treat as anything tht has been pi Ten for many a day, and the last h&lf of the week bas been given tip to ttas, receptions, and informal gatherings. Eath has been in honor cf some visitor, of which there ara a large number. These companies have lacked formality, except in a few instances, sow tbat the fotpal society season is orer. Those who 'eutertaln ecdsaror to gather congenial guests and girt them as enjoyable an afternoon or evening as possible. Cards, music, frames and dancing are sometime the pastime of one evening, go that those who like one can indulge in it, and those who like all can do all if the evening is long snonsh. Social gayeties art; something like the weather one weak it is all teas, anotber all receptions, and a third alt antic with a week now and then when there is a little of each. Thimble parties ate generally parties with on t thimbles. The work, if bronchi, is seldom touched, aed coffee and gossip rale the hour. It is wonderful what a variety of topics ean be diseussed and dispatched at a thimble party. The imitations, if written, are generally en a card, bearing some eug.rest.ve design, and then, arain, the deaig-i is not as snggrstiive. A set was sent ont a few weeks sine, each card being embellished with an embossed needle and thread. Some thought it a hook and line, others a Chinese legend or and Icelandic proverb, and bnt few realized what it was, so few took their work. The name should be plainly printed, so that the cannot be misled. . blind or stupid The Dels arte system has not taken the attention of Indianapolis society people yet, but many titles and tewss in other States are receiving the Instruction. Ladies who like a little more pin money than they now bite, take the coarse, and then become teachers, and as the price Is (10 for twelve lesions, and the, fad is Delsarte, they Tn a ha.VAat. Th Jnna la Vi A a 4m at.4 .in it ie tvicat the art of elsgint manners; how to walk, how to stand, how to sit. the act of sit ting, how to rise, how to shake hand, with whom and upon what oceseion. how to earry the cane, parasol fan. pocket-book, bae. baodkercniei, ioe ineoaiy dow, tu street now, toe carriage bow, how io receive friends or strangers, at ome or abroad, how to behave upon any and all ocessicos, io fact mold yourself entirely upon a pattern, and make yourself as perfect as possible in every reapeet. Not every ore can or will take the instruction, and this will keep the entire community from being too monotonous in behavior. It would look ridiculous to a bystander to watch ladies enter a party where, each practiced the Delsarte, and have everyene do, say and be just like every other one. Which brings to mind & certain New Year's ., rteeption, where - a gentlemen Htfal th natn inma twenty ladies were assembled. Es was introduced to them, and ma each name was pronounced he said "Happy to meet you." The first came clear and distinct, and so for the first half dozen, but by the time the fifteenth or twentieth eame it rounded more like "me ebew." and the ladles were nearly in convulsions of laughter. An effort was made by a lady here to bate her friends join a class large enough to have en experienced teacher come here from Chiearo to give the lessons, but she ..WU -444 ,u J I mW 4JWW. Ut4 n 444 IWVO .449 forming of a class to some one else. This city is slow to take up ideas in art in whatever form, and the probability is that the Delsarte will sot be taught here, at hsaat for the present. A large number of ladies have been interested In the Prohibition convention, and there was an attendance among those .whose friends thought tbey would be the last to go. National conventions are not held her often, and tbey are quick to embrace the opportunity. Tbey enjoyed the excitement, and when they thought their hurrahs would not b too conspicuous they joined In the demonstration. The scenes and sneakers received their undivided attention, and their comments and criticisms were as general as of the sx who own politics. The pronouneiamento is "I would not have missed it for anything. Why didn't you goF Personal Mention. Daniel G. Williams is boms from quits an extended .- i . . . . . . r orxncrn in p. Mrs. E. L.

Experience "with a Confidence Shark What It Costs to Get Ahead of aToll-Taker. .' A couple of eases cams rip in the Supreme Court last week in which a very ordinary principle of law was involved but some extraordinary facts were connected with it. It seems that a citizen of New Castle was going along the street one day when be saw some fellow trying to work some sort of a "fako" on the crowd around him. The citizen thereupon appointed himself a committee of one to investigate the proceedings, and . after looking ' Into the matter for a short time concluded to have the . individual who was preying upon his fellow-townsmen arrested. So he went to the 'squire's office, filed an affidavit, bad a warrant issued for the man's arrest, and himself appointed as a special constable to take this enemy of the people in charge, and, if necessary, deposit him in limbo, . in default of failure to make a proper defense or put op a sufficient sum to secure his appearance for trial at the proper time. The man was confronted with the warrant, charged with practicing upon the unsuspecting people things that were prohibited by the great statutes of the State, and without ceremony started in the direction of the justice's court. ne went along with his esptor meekly and unresistngly for some distance, until the two came near a pit, or large hole in the ground, in the very streets of tbe city of New Castle. When near tbat he seized the citizen who had him under arrest, and, without notice or apology, threw him bodily into the hole, and whtie the officious citizen was in there or getting ont, the prisoner succeeded in making good hie escape. Tbat was tbe last cf the case against the confidence man, but not tbe end of tbe story, .for the citizen-constable sned the towq of New Castle for damages for having such a big bole in the street whereby it was possible for him to be thrown into it and thereby injured. Tbe case came up to the Supreme Court, and was last week decided. The court held tbat tbe town was not liable, but that tbe man who threw him into the bole wasif he could get him. The otber case was froufthe Howard Circuit Court, and the facts were these: Several fellows living near Kokotno were goiog home one nlebt, after having been to town 'celebrating'' all day, and on their way they were compelled to pars through a toll-gate. When tbey eame 'near it they whipped up their horses and gave every indication to the eate-keeper that they were going to try to run throuzh without paying. So he lowered tbe bar, bnt raised it again as the team eame up. thinking that everything was all right. The driver, however, as the horses' heads got under the pole, hit the team a lick with the whip and tbe horses went dashing right through. The gate-keeper, however, was equal to tbe emergency and brourbt the pole down with a vim, striking the rig just behind the horses and sweeping the whole crowd in tbe wagon oil into the road like cobs 08 a plank. For this act on tbe part of its officers the gravel-road eotnpan was sued for damages and tbe ease brought up to the Supreme Court for its final decision.- That body held that the eompany was not liable, or, in other words, said that if a'man went "celebrating" and tried to run through a toll-gate on bis way home be must take the consequences all of which shows that a big lawsuit can spring ont of a very small occurrence. Enterprise in Nortb Indianapolis. The people 0! North Indianapolis have teen negotiatinc with the) Consumers' Trnst Company for natural gas and the Citizens' Street-rail way Company for tbe facilities of transit it can oiler. They proposed to tbe Trnst'to donate to it the eost of one year's fuel supply for the whole town if it would furnish them with gas. This would amount to about $9,000. It was a proposition similar, to that made by Woodruff rlaee, but the Trust directors were not inclined to accept iu, However.it agreed to lay maine and supply gaa to tbe town for f 10,000. Tbe people then offered instead of tbat to take $7. CCO in stock of the company. This also was considered unfavorably by the Trust. fter this the people referred its preposition to a council of ten, who reported to a mess-meeting of three hundred citizens last night. The council rceonr.tndtd an acsspusca cf tbe Trusts proposition, but there were otjttticrs to it, end f urthtr csstii:riti:3 cl Cs rtjtil r3
