The spacious residence of Mr. J. F. Evans , corner of Sixth avenue nnd Sixth street , was the scone yesterday of two largo and enjoyable social gather ings , one in the afternoon the other in the evening. In the afternoon a re ception wns given , to which about two hundred ladies wore invited , nearly nil responding in person , causing the largo parlors to bo filled withabrilliantnbscm- blago of fair forms and faces. The fluests were received by Mrs. J. F. Evans , Mrs. Horace Evans and Mrs. Bert Evans , assisted by Mrs. William Evans and Mrs. T. J. Evans. Mrs. J. F. Evans was dressed in a black , corded silk with yellow roses. Mrs. Horace Evans nnd Mrs. Bert Evnns wore heavy cream faille Frnncaise en train. Mrs. William Evans wns dressed in a rich golden brown silk trimmed with velvet. Mrs. T. J. Evnns appeared in a heavy black satin. The parlors were grace fully adorned , there being stands ot potted plants , the chandeliers nnd other suitable places wreathed in sinilax.while the mantles were banks of llowers. There was low sweet music siilllcient to give its charms without interfering with the happy exchange of greetings and the merry chatting. The dining room \\as made attractive , not only by floral decorations nnd the tasteful ar ranging of the table , but nlso by the generous nnd tempting viands , of which the guests pnrtqok at will , entering and leaving the dining room at their pleas ure. The Indies receiving nnd enter taining were relieved from nil necessity of giving personal attention to the re freshment table , that being ably pre sided over by their friends. Mrs. At kins , Miss Belle Hatcher , Miss Lizzie Brown and Miss Merkel. In the center of the large table was a beautiful ar rangement of flowers , and the guests wore served , either sitting or standing , as they preferred , with ice cream , cakes , coffee , chocolate and grapes. All of the arrangements wore well planned and gracefully executed , the guests were happy , and the reception justly goes on to the record as on of the most success ful and enjoyable social events of this season. In the evening there was another brilliant assemblage , the event being a dancing party given by Mr. nnd Mrs. Bert Evnns to their young friends. There were about seventy-live invita tions issued , and the company was a merry one. Dalby's orchestra furnished excellent music. The guests were re freshed at will during the evening by lemonade , while in the dining-room were served chicken salad , coffee , sand wiches , olives , ice cream and cake. Anong the guests from out of the city wore Miss Carrie Atkins , Miss Mollie Larimer aud Miss Clara Brown , of Omaha ; Miss Florence Root , of Keokuk ; Miss Ilaskcll , of Atehison , Kan. ; Miss Dent and Miss Adams , of Winonii , 111.

About one week or ten days ago pro ceedings were tiled to disbar Fremont Benjamin. The accusation contained four counts : That in the mouth of July , 1835 , ho was retained and employed to defend A. W. ColTman in all legal proceedings growing out of the killing of J. K. Main. That from that time until about the 1st day of January , 1880 , ho acted as such attorney , and while in such employ ob tained the confidence and secrets of his client , and that afterward he quit said employment and went over to the pro secution , gave away the secrets of ColT man , and betrayed his contidonco and helped to prosecute CotTman on the trial for the killing of Main. U. That on or about the 7th day of January , 18SO , ho began an attachment case against t'offman for $11,500 for ser vices performed in defending him , and tiled an attachment bond with the clerk of courts at Avoca , la. , and caused an attachment tv bo issued in said case and had the same levied on the real es tate of CotTman and that afterward or between that time and the llth day of January , 1888 , ho erased anil scratched the cn o from the records , as well as erasing and scratching out the record of the levying of the writ of attachment and took the papers in the cuso includ ing the attachment bond , out of the clerk's otllco and destroyed them en tirely. ! ! , That while acting as the attorney for ono E. A. Mllinor ho learned from Miliner while consulting with him at Qf such attorney , that there existed n LI- judgment in favor of Whitney & Holmes Organ company vs. John Rosoboom which said judgment was a first Ihm on a certain eighty acre tract of land sit uated in this county , which the sail ] Milinor had convoyed by warranty dccil and by reason of which said warranty Ol Mllinor was legally liable to clear tlu to land ol said judgment amounting ti iy about $400. Milinor also convoyed ti r- Benjamin tho'fact that.lie .could buj -judgment for 2oc on' the .dollar Miat nftcrwni'd Benjamin convoyed all he information thus gained from his licnt to another attorney , atid that his attorney and Benjamin bought the udgment together in the name of the > ther attorney , Benjamin advancing itilf of the money for that purpose ; hat Benjamin caused the land to be old under the judgment through his o-hort , and all the time wns advising Miliner that he could settle with the nirchnser for about 9300 ; thnt on the itrcngth of Benjamin's advice 'Miliner ? nvo Benjamin the necessary money to nirchnso the judgment which was ulti- natoly done and Benjamin got one-half of the profits , amounting to about $300 ; uid 4. That while acting nt the attorney of one Peter A. Peterson he received or collection against him n note for iJOO ; that he turned over the note to mother attorney for collection and gave uch attorney valuable information that 10 had obtained as attorney from 1'otcr- on. by reason of which the collection of the note could be enforced. Thnt as eon as the note was presented to Peter- on for payment he went to Benjamin or ndvico and counsel , and Benjamin counselled and advised Peterson to pay ho note , and charged Peterson $10 for uch advice and counsel , and that aet- ng on such advice and counsel Peter- on paid the note to the other attorney , vho in turn delivered the proceeds of ho collection to Benjamin , nnd the , wo divided thocpmmlssion for collect- he same , amounting to & 25. These charges were presented to the court , Judge i'arson , bv Snpp&l'usoy uid G. W. Cullison , attorneys forG. W. tobin on , relntor. Judge Carson or- lered the cleric to docket a ease against lonjnmln in the name of the state of 'own. When the case wns being set fin- rial the attorneys for the state an- lounced that on the account of the ab sence of certain witnesses it would bo mpossiblo to try the case at this term , mil asked to have it continued to the \sbruury term , 18SS. C. It. Scott , wtio ippcarcd as attorney for Benjamin , then said they would have till the witnesses isked for. and Jhe court then set the nse for trial at 10 : ! p. in. the 17th day > f January , 1888 , at which time the Dirties all being in court and the most naterial witnesses for the prosecution lot being pre-eut. an application for continuance was tiled , claiming the ab sence of certain witnesses and as to what they would testify. The court , looming the showing eiiflicicnt , MIS- ained the application. Then Mr. scott stated that they were wili ng to admit that the wit- ics-es , if present , would testify is stated in the application. [ t was then discovered thatsby clerical rror the most material testimony of ! udge Loofbourrow had been omitted. As the application had been passed upon it was too late to remedy the defect. Colonel Sap ] ) then stated that in such in important ca e he would not go to trial until till the testimony and wit nesses were present in court and that to save the state all her rights and to pre vent a ' 'guilty man going unwhipped of justice" he w'ould withdraw the nccusa- , ions and relile them , which was accord ingly done. So now the result is hat after having occupied the boards icre for several days the disbarment ' proceedings against 'Benjamin are now exactly in the same position as in the start. The charges still stand nnd it low looks as though the charges would invo to bo met when all the state's testimony has been thoroughly mar shalled. It having been stated that G. W. Robinson , who is the rclator. was urged on by A. W. CotTman and A. W. Askwith. Benjamin's old partner , Mr. [ { obiuson has come out in a card deny ing this , and saying that Askwith re- 'used ' to have anything to do with even drawing up the papers.

Despite the cold weather on the out side , work on the government building is going steadily forward at the hands of several different gangs of laborers in the employ of the firms who have contracts on the building. One of the largest forces is that of Joseph Eastman & Co. , of Chicago , which consists of twelve men nnd is doing the plastering. The second , third and fourth stories have all been first-coated , and work has just been commenced on the second. This branch of the work has been going on for about ten days and will require about three months to complete , as the cornice is put on by this same firm. There are about lO.HK ( ) yards of plaster ing to bo done in the building. Al though there are but four men engaged in spreading the ' 'mud1 the showing made thus far is very good. The story of strikes , walk-outs , etc. , that was re ported in some of the papers a short time ago is denied by the foreman , who says ho has all the men he wants and at his own price. The steam fitting firm of Kirkup & Son , of Cincinnati , also has a force of a do/en men , who are engaged in fixtog up the galvanized iron ventilators. There are chambers built through all the brick partitions opening into the various rooms , and all connected at the other end with the main ventilator which opens into the upaeo that surrounds the smokestack from the boilers , where the hot air cre ates a current , causing a steady How of impure air from all parts of the build ing. The large court room , which is of the height of the second and third stories , is connected with the ventilator later shaft by a six foot register in the coiling. This room is heated by hot air blown by a huge fun through 10,000 feet of pipe in a steam chest , thence through pipes to the court room. The post ollico on the lower floor is to bo heated in the same manner , although it in now warmed by means of radiators. The method of placing the registers is rather novel , ns they are circular in bhnpo and will surround the pillars. This will prevent tired people from mo- nopoli/.ing the pillars to lean against when the hot air is turned on. Seven men are busy setting the eight safe doors furnished by the Hall Safe and Lock company , of Cincinnati. The last one will bo sot to-day , but the plumbing and cementing will consume several days more. The Window Bros , company , of Chicago cage , have live men engaged in putting up the iron stairways , with which the building is to be fitted throughout , Their work is but iust commenced , and will probably require a month for com' plction. In the basement , Connor Bros. , of this city , tire busily engaged in cutting stone for the walks , curbs , etc. , for the grounds. The stone is brought fron Indiana , and eight carloads have ju arrived. The lloors of tho. dilTeren rooms will bo of .hard w6od , and tht corridors of marble slabs. The prc&on tipor,1 which will then bo the bub-struo turo is of tiling , and is warranted to sustain 1,60(1 ( pounds to the square foot. The three boilers in the basement keep the building at a comfortable tempera ture , even in the Coldest weather , with out any trouble. At present about two and one-half tons of coal are used every twenty-four hours. Opinions as to when the building will be ready for occupancy vary widely , ranging from three months to n year nnd iv halt. It is fnlr to suppose th t when the work is finished there will bo no cause for complaint. Shenfc loans money on real estate. One thousand head of one. two nnd three-year-old steers for sale.

Both attorneys made lengthy arguments , nnd it was nearly noon when the case was submitted. Judge Aylesworth thought the evidence suftleicnt to bind the pris oner over to the grand jury , and did so in the sum of $1,000. In the afternoon the cases of James Dunn and John Fran cis , for larceny , and W. F. Pravey. for burglary , were called. They all waived examination , and wore also bound over to the grand jury , which meets on the llth of February. There was no business of the regular January term transacted. The Fall-mount I'nrk Case. The wrangle over the possession of Fairmount park has not attracted much attention of late , and it is not generally known that the case will bo called in court on the 2nd of February , athieh time the city's interest in the matter will be looked after by City Attorney Holmes , Finloy Burke , and Messrs. Sapp & Pusey. The city was iwt espec ially made a party to the suit , as all outside parties tire notified to appear and defend Ihoir claims. Notwithstand ing the ungraciousness of the invita tion , Park Commissioner Graham says , "We propose to take a hand in the game whether wo are asked to or not , and I guess we will slay with them fora while anyway. " It is said that there will be an attempt mtide to have the pint of the park de clared illegal , and to have the city ousted without ceremony. If this grasp ing law firm obtains possessions of Fair- mount park , it will be after the liveliest and bitterest legal light known in the history of Pottawatninio county.

One of these is the purchase of lots near Tenth avenue for the estab lishment of a large wholesale lumber yard. The nearnessto the railway tracks , and the short distance , too , from the heart of the city. , makes the locution very desirable for such purposes , nnd this enterprise will speedily bo followed by others. The sale is reported of thirty-two acres , near Wickham's brick yards , for the opening of another brick yard. On the other hand it is whis pered thnt Mr. Geiso is considering the advisability of closing his brewery hero and removing the machinery to Chatta nooga , and there going into business more extensively than over. The clos ing of the brewery will be looked upon by many as a great loss to the city , and the hope is expressed that the rumor may be unfounded. Mr. Gciso is absent from the city , but those connected with him , who ought to know , do not deny but that there is some ground for the report that ho will remove from here.

Barbour&villo ( Ky. ) News : Never kiss young girl if she doesn't want you to. Tlie main ingredient that makes kiss- ng endurable is a willingness on the Hirt of the female. If it deepens into inxiety , so much the better. When n 'irl claws a man's hair and scratches his 'ace like n little fool drop her nt once. She is destitute of good sense and natural aftection , and the sooner you iegin making love to her sister the better. As long as a girl don't claw and yell and struggle like a panther it's perfectly safe to continue prospecting. Jet a little behind her , pass the right iirm around the waist in front , take her left hand in your loft , and if you don't know what to do next go and associate with the boys in Greenland. If you are just beginning to tench a iy girl who has only been kissed here tofore by her brothers and father , touch your lips gently to her forehead. She will take this for an exhibition of pro found respect. Thnt portion gninc l , working the way down to the lips is as natural and as easy as the course of a log sliding down stream , a Never sit down to kiss. It nppeiirs awkward in case anybody is lookingand seems awkward anyhow. Stifnd un , and the closer you jiress the girl the higher estimate she will place on your good taste , common sense and experience. Kissing married ladies is a separate branch of the art and requires constant practice. While" tenderness and a little hesitation and bashfulnessif well put on go a long way with a young girl , such nonsense is not swallowed by a married woman to any consider able extent. Bo warm , vigorous and hearty , and above all things bo frequent. One of the prime requi sites on such an occasion is a quick ear for the footstep in the hall and a nice calculation as to how long the husband will take to reach the door after ho has passed the head of the stairs. A house heavily carpeted with Brussels requires eternal vigilance and sometimes rare presence of mind. By the time the worser half of the family gets his hand on the door knob you must be seated in the far corner of the room seriously perusing Talmago'ssermon on Covetous- ncss. ncss.A kiss can sometimes bo snatched when the husband , is in the room , but this requires an export nnd is risky. Our young man once know an instance. A married lady asked her husband to wind the clock , and a young man in the room thought ho saw his golden oppor tunity and went for it. If the clock hadirt had a clock just before the face that young man would have been all right ; but for three weeks after his Sunday school class had n picked-it ] teacher and ho liad the appearance o having bucked against a cyclone. This is one of'tho vicissitudes of kissing from mere impulse. Mothers do not fail , at the first indi cations of a cough , to give yourcnildiei n few doses of Dr. J. H.
