Aa old man and a Utile xirl walked into • downtown saloon rboat 2 o'clock yeater- day afternoon. I C was not the first visit. The white-aproned bartender regarded them corioaaly. The baUa-dozen loongerg lowered their voiced in respect to the little tot of femininity. Nervously lambling in his pocket the at{ed tuper called (or a drink. The little gixl left his side and with a fagitivc ijlance at the bartender stole over to the lanch table. From noon until 2 o'clock a generoaa and temptini; array of viands ia geaerully provided in this peoaliar resort. It had been removed a lew minatea before the old man and hia little compaion arrived. Raising on tip.toe the little girl looked over a clear expansu ot snow-white tablsclote. A pitifal expression of disap- pointment passed over a face pinched with hanger and privations. The old man was juat raiaing a gl^a ot whiskey to hia lips lips when the little girl rasbed across the •com and clutched him by the arm : " Grandpa ! grandpa !" she exclaimed in a shrill childish treble, "don't drink; the lunch ia all gone!" The treiabling hand withdrew the glass that had almost touched his lips. A look at the table varified the child's statement. Be had already paid for the drink. Mo- tioning the bartender to the end ol the long poliahed bar, the old man said : " Vlease give me back the money. I must go without the drink if I die for it. It's all we have in the world, and the little i^rl has had nothing to eat sinoe morning. Please give me back the money." " Here's a quarter ; don't come in here again," replied the bartender. Uand-in-hand they went out, he with his head down and she with a glad look in her eyes. He started to go into another saloon, but she held him baok. They walked halt a block and entered a cheap restaurant. â€" Chicago Tribune. TROM'8 BBU88BLS BALL-BOOSI. 'Where " Hugh ! Hark !" Start^ the Beauty and the Chivalry. There was a sound of revelry by night, And Belgium's capital bad gathered there Her beauty and her chivalr; , aod bright The lamps shone u'er fair women and bravo men; \ thousand hearts beat happily ; and when Music arose with its voluptuous swell. Bolt eyes looked love to eyes which spake again , And all went merry as a marriage bell ; But, hush 1 hark 1 a deep Buuud strikes like a rising knell. So wrote Byron in " Childe Harold" (Canto III), aa all the £ngliBh-reading yoang men and young wo Jien ia the world well know. Therefore, many people will read with interest tho {oUowing extract from a Hombarg letter by William Frazer in the Londan Timet. Mr. Frazer this summer went over Waterloo field. He writes : " One pathetic incident ot this battle baa escaped tho notice of poets and painters. I can remember my father saying that on the evening of Quatre Bras be noticed many ofiicera lying dead ia the silk stock- ings and buckled shoes which they had worn at the Uacheas of Bichmond's ball on the previous ni^ht, their servants having joined the column earlier, making it impossible to change their full dress uniforms. Oo returning to Brussels I determined to find, if possible, the scene of the ball given by the Duchess of Richmond the evening before Quatre Bras. " Some time before leaving England I conversed with a lady who danced with my father at the ball, and who has, as you will see from her name, which I enclose, the best means of knowing where it took place. The lady, giving me at the same time a list of those who were invited, told me that Lord Byron's allusion to ' that high hall ' was ' nonsense.' She added that the ball took place, not in the Duke ot Richmond's house, but in a ooachmaker's depot, a low- roofed room, at the rear of it, the Itreet being named Rue de la Blanchisserie. I made many incjuiries in England and in Brussels. " I at last ascertained that the site of the Dake ot Richmond's hoase was now cov- ered by a large hospital ia the Rue des Cendres. I visited the hospital, and one ot the narsiug sisters politely pointed oat a wing which had formed part ot the Duke's house. I examined the garden behind this wing ; neither in this nor ia the building itself was there any trace of a ball-room. I observed above the wall ot the hospital the root ot a high building, and tn- (luired what it was. The Bister replied that it was the brewery ot the Rae de la blanchisserie. I walked round to this street, and was informed by the proprietor ot ihe.t>rewery that he knew nothing on the subject. After some conversation I asked it he Could tell me of whom his father purchased tha pro- perty ', he replied of a coach-builder named Van Asoh. I incjuired if the coach-huilder bad a depot. " Yes, a very large one ; it is now my granary." lie then took ma up on the first door and I found myself in the room, the remembrltBce of which will live as long as the English language. It iadl'20 ' feet long, 54 feet broad, and about 13 feet high, tho floor smooth enough to be danced on tonight.^ This room answers precisely to the description given to me ; it is imme- diately in the rear of the Duke of Rich- mond's house, it is in the street named, it belonged in 1815 to a coach -builder, and is capable of holding at least 400 persons. " I do not think further proof can be required. I have the permission ot the proprietor to give hia name, V. Vanginder- achter, brasseur, Rue de la Blanchisserie, 40 et 42. He most courteously addsd that we would be glad to show the rocm to visitors." Odd Items.

The women were exceedingly beautiful amd richly attired, and all the men were hand- some.

A PATXN-T has been granted tor a water- proof compound adapted to be applied to the floors and walls of buildings to prevent the access ot water and dampness, and which will also withstand extreme and varying temperatures of air, and which will be practically indestructable. The composition consists of the following in- gredients, combined in substantially the proportions stated, viz. : New Zealand (or Portland) cement, 100 pounds ; crgam ot tartar, 3 ounces; puWenied ivory, 1 uuoco ; quicksilver, 1 ounce ; isioglaos, i ounoes; marble dust, i pounds , sand, 2UU pouudg ; ram water, 1 pall. Ia compounding the ingredients a small quantity of cement, for instance, one pound, is mixed with the cream ot tartar, quick- silver and isinglass and witer enough to make a very thin paate, and the composi- tion is let stand about twenty-four hours. It the weather be coid the composition should stand in a warm place. The re- mainder ot the cement, the pulverized ivory, marble dust and sand are mixed dry, and the standing compound is thereapou added, together with enough rain water, about half a pail, to produce a plastic mass capable of being readily laid with a trowel or similar implement. After the compound is laid upon a suitable foundation, such as wood, earth, brick or metal, it becomes vary hard, equal to steel, and capable of a very high polish. BKAI. IBISH STOBT. " Where Hag Hy Sweetheart Gone f" Angwered in Time. This from the London Globe sounds romantic, bat the writer vows that he is telling Cupid's truth: Just eight years ago a young Dublin engineer and the daughter ot a wealthy rmer, who was also engaged in the Dublin provision trade, were married. The bride bad managed the provision business for her family and was described as an amiable and lovely girl. After marriage the wed- ding party went to Glendalough and a most enjoyable day almost up to the hour ot returning was spent, the company being a large one, when some mistmderstanding oc- curred between the newly wedded pair. The bridegroom left the company in an- ger and walked the eight miles back to the city in time to catch aa evening steamer to Liverpool -, from that period until Thursday in last week be waa never heard ot. Tho bride felt her desertion keenly, but she stuck to her business. Her father meantime died and she waa left in charge of great responsibilities. The wan- derer wao forgotten or believed to have died and some time sinse another aacceeded in obtaining her affections. The wedding was arranged for an early day and invita- tions bad been issued when the long missing husband put in an appearance in the city. He had been all these years in New Zealand and he had made money, whioh he had come home to share with bis wife who, "strangely enough" adds the correspon- dent, " felt all her old love for him revive. He was very nearly being late, but his timely arrival saved a vast amount of after misery to all concerned." No matter what the school of physic.

" Speaking about the accuracy of machinery," observed a scientific man the other day to a New York Hail writer, " the degree of aconraoy to which the human hand oan be trained is equally wonderful. " Playing cards are re<jnired to be cut with the aides ciuite parallel to each other, because if a pack be trimmed by the machine slightly wider at one end than the other, and they became turned ' end for end' in dealing, the excess in width ot soma cards over others at the end of the pack will be doable the variation in any one card, which would facilitate cheating, a very minute variation being perceptible. The men who test these cards for this, make calipers of their finger and thumb, and, by passing them along from oni! to the other, detect a dilTerence in width between the two ends which it is difficult to measure by any other means. There are men employed in factories where dried yeast is made ,vhose basinesB it is to put the yeast into packages weighing a certain amount each. It is on a table in front ot them in a large plastic mass, and there are the scales for weighing it. Bat the men do not use the scales. They simply separate from the mass with their hands a lump ot it and put it up. and you may choose at random and put it oa the scales, and it will weigh exactly the rightamount, the scales beam just balancing. " When large numbers ot eggs are handled and shipped to market, there is a process known as ' candleiug ' eggs, which consists in taking them up in tlie hands (usually two oggs in each hand at a time), aud holding them up befure a lighted candle. The light shining through them reveals to the practised eye the exact cou- dition ot the cuntenta. But some ot the men soon get so that they do not need the use ot the uandle, the mere contact ot their hands with the shells denoting the condition of the egg jnst as infallibly and much mors <|uickly. And they distinguish in that way not merely eggs which are de- cidedly bad, but those which are just barely beginning to lose their freshness.
