TIIE MASKERS AT TIIE BALL.
CANEMAH POET.
We took a peep last evening.
To Vatch them dance a while;
Tho Jjanccrs, Waltzes, Polkas,
And everything in style.
The first we here shall "mention
Is the negro from tho South,
With patched up llowingtrowsers,
liig boots and bigger mouth.
The next was pretty Huntress,
With graceful, lovely form,
Who played her part so mcelj,
She took the hearts by storm.
We notice next an Indian,
Huge, brawny, bold ami bravo ;
Who swings the Thomas hatchet,
His red-browed tribe to save.
Now comes the hour of Darkness,
Her figure robed in Night,
Whereon were stars of silver,
Most brilliant and bright.
The Girl from the Isle of Cuba,
With line cigars in ease,
Her costume quite appropriate,
A form of pleasing grace.
And once appeared the Doctor,
Rigged out for a rainy ride,
With gum coat, old umbrella,
And pill bag by his side.
Now comes the "joy of many
A soldier's home".ind band,"
The true Girl of the Regiment,
With costume neatly planned.
Who could beat the Sailors,
Who plough the raging main;
With outfit trim and shipshape,
Two Sailors two the same.
There was wing sing China,
And royal "Yeddo Japs;
For your life you couldn't tell 'em
From those copper-colored chaps.
Many more we might mention,
But space will not permit;
And all, we know, enjoyed it,
Until the music quit.
Long will it be remembered,
By me at any rate ;
For there, on that occasion,
I think I met mv fate.

Robrery. A Mr. Moore, living near
Moody's store, Molaila. was roblod of
310 last week. He had the money stowed
awaj' for safe keeping in a nail box under
the stairs. In the morning his hired man
pulled oil his over-alls, and in doing so
rallied some money in his pockets, which
excited Mo re's suspieions,as the man was
not v ery well heeled with the filthy lucre,
and he immediately started for his' hiding
place, and sure enough the money was
missing. Instead of searching t he man,
Mr. .Moore went to Moody's and got sev
eral men to help him in getting his money.
By the time they had got i ack to the
house the hired man had taken his hore
and started oil" on the Salem road. The
party at once started in pursuit and soon
overtook the man and made a thorough
seaicli, but failed to find any trace of the
missing money. It is reported that tho
man went to Salem and was seen shaking
twenties around rather lively, and it is
very probable that he hid "the money
while Moore was olf for help.
Since the above was in type we learn
that the hired man, whoso name is Parks,
has lieen arre.-stod at Salem and taken back
to Molaila. and his examination was to
take place Tuesday. He had about 10 on
his person when" arrested, and it was
known t hat he had spent over ii0 around
town. Parks will stand a good chance for
the penitentiary.
A Missixo Wheat Buyer. During the
fill months a certain firm in this city, says
the Portland Standard, appointed a man
near Butt?ville to act a.-; their agent for
the purchase of wheat. For this purpose
they advanced him one thousand dollars.
Time passed on end the firm believed
they were gathering in the golden grain
at a price that would surely line their
HXkets when the advance came. The
desired advance was slow m coming, so
they made little inquiry in relation to
the amount purchased by their agent, and
in store awaiting orders. A few davs since
a messenger was sent up to examine the
grain and ascertain the grade. Upon ar
riving at his destination inquiry failed to
find any wheat awaiting order or theagent
who was to represent them. After search
ing in vain he returned to the city and re
ported progress. What steps wilfbe taken
has not been determined.
