' THANIBOIVINO AT JACKSONVILI.K.
. Thanksgiving was generally ob-
aerved at tne county aeau ine
day waa unuaually quiet, many
ore fer ring to remain at home and
enioy a day of real and reoreation
with the family. Nothing transpired
during the day wortby or note,
Tbe ball In the evening, under the
auspices of the Degree or Honor,
waa a most reoherohe affair, and
waa voted a grand suooess. Tbe
musio waa furnished by Palne'a
orohostra of trained artists, who
know how to mold and temper the
soft melody or moving quioastup to
suit tbo lovers of tbe invigorating
quadrille or tlio graceful wall.
Tbe ball waa tastefully decorated
with trailing vlnea, bouquets of out
floweri and evergreens, and fee
looned with a hunpy blending of
delicately tinted paper. The sup-
nor, prepared by the lady members
of the D, of II., was one of the bout
among the many oho'ce spreads
whlou huvo been propured by these
ladles. The tables were euporbly
ornumonted with a rich profusion
of variegated flowers, potted plunta
and evergreens, ho disposed in a
perspective or rare and toothsome
delicacies as to produce the most
pleasing effect. The admiruble taste
displayed in the decorations was
only equulod by tho skill exhibited
In the preparation of tbo menu.
I be oeousloii furnished something
pleasant for everybody. Tbe ball,
handsomely fitted up by persons of
refinement and culture, was a blaze
light) tbo musio waa a delightful
and nappy concord of sweet sounds,
and the company represented the
social culture, refinement, grace,
beauty and flower of the young
people of the valley, Tne hall was
orowded to the stairs, yet everybody
waa happy. Kighty-threo tickets
ware aold. and many took supper
wlo had no tickets. The receipts

An old elephant taken into battle oav
the plaint of India was a standard
bearer and carried on his huge back tha
royal enaign, the rallying point of the
Poena liot. At the beginning of the
light he lost hia master. Tbe "mahoot,"
or driver, hod juat given the word to
halt, when be received a fatal wound
and fell to the ground, where he lay
under a heap of alain. The obedlentela
phant stood still while the battle
closed around him. and the standard
he carried. Us never stirred a foot, re
fusing to advaooe or retire, aa the ooar
filet became hotter and fiercer, until
the Mabrattas, seeing the standard sttB
flying steadily in ita place, refused to
believe that they were being beaten
and rallied again and again around the
colors. And all this tfbile, amid the din
of battle, the patient animal stood
straining its ears to catch tbe sound of
that voice It would never bear again.
At length the tide of conquest left the
field deserted. Hie Mahfattas swept
on in pursuit of tbe flying foe, but the
elephant, lil(e a- rock, stood there, with
tbe diiad and dying around, and the en
sign waring in its place. For three days
and nights It remained where Its master
had given the command to halt. No
bribe or threat could move it. They
then sent to a village 100 miles away
and brought the maboot'a little son.
The noble hero seemed then to remem
ber how the driver had sometimes given,
his authority to the little child, and Im
mediately, with all the shattered trap
ping! clinging aa he went, paced quiet
ly and slowly away.

One day lately the entire summer col
ony of the island of Monhegan turned
out and helped the fishermen dresa
and salt 50 barrels of mackerel.
It has been a hard year for the fisher
men, for, on account of lack of bait ana
food fishes, the cod fishery has been a
complete failure, and the unexpected
taking of the SO barrels of mackerel
created great excitement along shore.
The fish were small and' the weather
warm, so that they had to be dressed
and packed at once or they would spoil.
So many men had gone away to the
mainland looking for employment that
there were not enough left to care for
the mackerel. The summer boarder
volunteered their services, and men and
women were soon standing about tha
dories and splitting tables, dressed in
their oldest clothes and working with
might and main to help the fishermen.
Well-known men and women of Mew
York, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia
and Kansas City all plied the splitting-
knife and the "gibber," and at sunset
the last mackerel had been salted and
$500 saved for the fishermen.

A Prlnoe'a Dilemma.
The German emperor likes to study
the characters of his group of small
sons, and to that end has given them a
room next to the one used for business
purposes for himself. A certain great
scientific man, having on one occasion
an Interview with the emperor, left his
hat in the adjoining vestibule. There
the little brothers discovered it; and
the crown prince, explaining to the
younger ones thai "papa" sometimes
sat on his opera hat and it came out all
right again, proceeded to give a prac
tical illustration of this statement, ti
the ruin of the beaver. The emperor's
door suddenly opened, and "papa" and
the professor appeared. Like a manly
little fellow, the erown prince owned
up, apologized to tne laugning proies-.
sor and went off to buy for tbe old gen
tleman a new hat with hia small posket
money.
