Pretty Gorman Favors Ilio Mor- chantb * Bull lit the Exposition Hall With a Ilavinw of thcj Woelc , Minor Events. A Now Social Game. The openly avowed intention of some of the BOCloty young woraon to eschew dancing this winter opens 11 wide Held for the ingenuity rcaulrod to fashion amusements for a substi tute. Already privotq theatricals nro grow ing In pooular favor , but as this forai of on- tortnlument can only personally affect the gifted fowvnn.Ytniig now and diverting in cards or gamus of any sort would prove most welcome. In cultured Bdston , In the early spring , the society people , surfeited with dancing aud what not , pivc some jingle parties which became came very popular. They originated In this wise : A number of young people gathered together - ' gothor , wrote their names on bits of paper , Which , being well shaken In a hat , were passed about for now possession. Each was expected to write an appropriate jlng'.o or rhyme on the niuno drawn , after which they wore returned to the receptacle for lost Iden tity. Tudso wore subsequently road aloud , nnd the result , in many Instances , wore very funny. Wuoro the hostess flcslrod an especially Interesting party , the names of the Invited guests wore written on allps of pupor , scaled in tiny cnvolopos.shnkon in a hat uud then drawn out ana directed each in turn to one of those Invited , thus giv ing him time to distinguish himself with his Two or three are then chosen to sit In Judg ment , nnd the cleverest rhyme is chosen , iho author of this Is then obliged to confess , no matter how pertinent nnd saucy the remarks may bo , nnd to him the prize Is awarded. As tbo chancns are slight for being identified , the opportunities for spicy personalities arc many , uud the whole uiukcs very amusing reading. The prlros can bo made attractive nnd this game , w1th a bit of music , ninUos an evening where one feels ono's wits Iiavo been whet ted , smiles provoked and ears pleuseU with n pretty Jingle. , ' A 1'rotty Uurtnan Knvor. A now conceit In Qorrnan fiwors can easily be fashioned nt homo by blowing the meat from ogKs through two small holes broken through each end of the shqll and llllmi ; them with finely out tlusol , then covering the tell-talo ho'oa with little pictures that can bo procured in tuo shops and mucitaitod on , or little bits of ribbons put on the sumo way. Finally gilu the whole and the pretti est possible liivor is In the hands of u belle or buau to bo broken over tbo head of the tlioseii partner , covering him or her with a veritable shnwor nt gold I Merchants' Unll , The wealth of decorations lavished on Ex position hall and the prodigality of expense preparation for the llm annual ball of the merchant pi luces of Oniuuu on Wednesday evening was the marvel of the week , The hall was beautifully decked with red , whlto and blue garlands.

The Decision of the Uiillail Stutca Ill I Court in the CiiiiuMakers' Caac Ijnoul Imbor Nc\v ' oi' Interest. ll The K. of L. Tnn BEB , two weeks ago , contained a statement from a prominent member of the Knijrhts of Labor , which was in substance that tbo order is retrograding instead of ad vancing , ana presenting the reasons there- ' for. for.It It has slnco been learned that a movement Is on foot in the order to thorougly roorgan- tzennd put matters on much the same footing as In the days when Grand Master Work man Uriah H. Stephens , the founder , con trolled the destinies of the association. Stephens founuod the ordur on the prlncl- po ! oi secrecy und ui > story , and for nlaa years no outsider know that a society ex isted. AH the meetings wcro secret. No member had the right to reveal to any ono not a member the fact that ho or any ono else was a member. All now members were selected with ttio greatest care uud in conso- queco the growth of the Knights was com paratively small. When Stephens died and Powdorly suo- cecdod him mutters changed. Anyone who woiked , no inattar bow ignorant , was taken into the association. As a consequence , bavoo succeeded Lurmony. Pinkeiton de tectives und men of thulr ill : were taken into the fold. A newspaper man In Sednlla Joined , und In less Hum u week the Bazoo published nil of the unwritten or secret work. This injuied tlm order very much. But the now plan Is this : The secret workings are to be changed. Now slcns , gt Ips and passwords for district nnd local assemblies are to bo udoptod. Once inoro the order will go into Bouret session nnd no one xvlll know its Hiniiit'th. The practice of appearing on parade will bo dis continued. Selections of new members will bo iiiude with the greatest euro und the motto , "Organize , Edm-ato , Co-oporato.
