THURSDAY, 2. Ball Last Night. The ball at Wood-manse- e's Hall last night, given by the Ogden Soeial Club, was one of tho very best of the season. There was a gay company, and a large and respectable one. Everything passed off with the utmost good humor and jollity, and there was nothing to alloy the pleasure of the evening, except the mixing up and losing of some clothing at the close of the party. We suggest to the proprietor of the hall the propriety of erecting a couple of dressing-room- s in this popular ba Complaints are almost as numerous as parties about the inconvenience arising from the abscnoe of any decent place to put hats, cloaks, shawls and shoes.'

The music was good, but would have been still better if played in a UetU slower time. We hope Messrs. Stevens & Co. will take this in good part, as we mean no disrespect to their excellent band.

One on the first class cars, two on the second class. Hogs and Dogs. The Chinese are famous for their dexterity in knife-throwin- g, but we were not aware that the Dutch were in the habit of practicing the art. Yesterday, however, Mr Lamerss, a native of Holland, residing on "The Bench," tried his hand at the business with striking, though fatal, success. He was cleaning a hog, a dead hog, a hog just killed ; when a live dog which had smelled the dead heg, came poking his nose into other folks' business. These canine proceedings were objected to by a "purp" who had a right on the premises, and a dispute arose which the two animals proceeded to set-ti- e after the manner of their kind. Mr. Lamers, to part the belligerents threw his' butcher-knif- e at them. The blade entered the body of his own dorg" with fatal force ; the battle was at an end, and with one terrible yelp the Dutchman's dog keeled over, killed by the hand in had often licked. Profound regrets followed, and a canine funeral. . Moral. When you practice Lng a la' Mongolia, don't cast your first blade at your own dog. knife-throw- Serenade. The Telegraph and freight depot boys on Tuesday night celebrated the closing year by a serenade to the gentlemenly, competent and courteous olhcers at the Union depot of the Pacific roads The sweet and gentle voice of Mr. Hillickcrs, who was at the head of the party of serenaders, rang iu dulcet tone, while the other singers added to the harmony of the musio which made New Year's eve. gladsome. Messrs. K. D. Brown. Erbe,' Chapman, Turner and several' others responded to the compliment tendered in appropriate speeches. An adjournment to the restaurant over which Mr. Chapman presides and a few more songs ended the serenade, and joyful congratulations were exchanged upon the opening of the new year.
