The Hop Last Night.
There was a fine time last night, at
Hibernian Hall, at the second regu
lar hop of the Social Club. There
was a good attendance and it was
in every respect a very successful
affair. Dancing began at 8 o'clock
and was kept up with much spirit
until midnight, when supper was
announced. Later on the dancing
was resumed and was kept up till
morning. The committee are to be
congratulated on the success which
has attended their efforts in this
instance, as well as on the occasion
of the first hop.
Stronsr Men.
Women love strong men. A weak
man may excite their sympathy and
a woman's careful tenderness soothe
and soften the anguish of a weak
man's soul, bait the laughing, joy
ous, warm, exuberant love of women
dear, belongs to the men that are
strong and noble and kind. Then
why will a man continue weak, and
mean and peevish?
An old gentleman writes: "B. B.
B. gives me new life and strength.
If there is anything that will make
an old man young, it is B. B. B."
Some men say, and women too,
they never feel weak and mean ex
cept in the spring. Why then feel
weak and mean and nervous and
prostrated in the spring time jwhen
life and spirit awakens with thrill
ing buoyancy even the' vegetable
World? Must you allow sluggish
blood, inactive organic functions,
rusty joints "and general, weakness
to make your life miserable simply
because the long winter hag restrain
ed your natural activitv? It need
not be. If only you will use that
'pleasant and incomparable tonic
blood purifier known as B. B. B. or
Botanic Blood Balm your health in
spring time will be all that you can
wish. Try it this spring. Try it now.
! P. A. Shepherd, Norfolk, Va., Au
gust 10, 1888, writes: "I depend on
. B. B. B. for the preservation of my
" health, I have had it in my family
now nearly two years, and in all
j that time nave not had to have a
doctor."

-V St, Valentine's Day.
The good saint, whose day falls
due next Friday, is in non sense res
ponsible far the custom of valentine
giving that adds such interest to the
modern, celebration of this fete
day. Furthermore, the custom of
'Valentine selecting in its original
form had nothing in common with
the 19th century operation of visit
ing a stationer's store, or a fancy
store, for the purpose of buying
some pretty card or hand painted
ornament as a love token. The lads
and lassies of Main, and Lorraine,
in France, as well as the people gen
erally unwedded of Scotland and
England, had a certain custom, dat
ing back to the seventh century, of
ho'ding "lotteries of selection" of
loye mates for each year. Names of
young people of both, sexes were
written out and put into proper re
ceptacles, and drawings took place,
in which each sex could secure a
partner from the other, and it was
customary by the sentimental bound
set up by the selection so made to
immure for one year and no longer,
unless, as a sarcastic bachelor ob
serves, "terminated by the marriage
or death of the-parties.'" Duringthe
year each stood to the other in the
relation of Cavalier and Lady of
Beauty, the knight being, bound to
the honor and defense of nis fair
one, for which she repaid him in
smiles. Both sexes were privileged
to draw for sweethearts in these lot
teries, so that a gentleman 'might be
chosen by a lady he sought not, and
a lady draw a gentleman whom she
did not desire.
I'ouml House-and Engines Burned.
The round house of the Carolina
Central Railroad at Charlotte, a
frame structure, was burned early
yesterday morning. .It held three
engines at the time, one of. which
was drawn out and two others were
burned at least the wood works
were burned but the ma,chinery. is
not thought to havebeen severely
injured. . The engines knd the house
were ail under insurance but - this
doos not compensate for the loss of
thei services,' which are greatly
needed at this time. We learn from
the Charlotte Neivs that, the fire
.was first discovered by a colored
fireman who openeoVthe door of the
round house to get out an engine
for the 5 o'clocka. m, train for this
city. No 415, a fine rant locoiiio
tive used for passenger service, was
standing over a pit in thev centre of
the house, and as the fireman open
ed the door he saw that the- tender
and cab of 415 were ablaze and the
roof over the engine-was also burn
ing. He instantly gave the alarm,
and at the same time set about to
save the engines. There was no fire
in any of them, but One engine had
50 pounds of steam on, and the. fire
man pulled the throttle and got
that. engine out. The other two,
415 and the Baldwin shifting engine,
had to be abandoned to the flames.
Capt. Baskerville, the depot agent,
was quickly on the scene, and get
ting out the depot hose had a stream
playing on the burning building
when the firemen arrived. Three
streams were soon at wrork, but the
fire had gained such headway that
the building could not ..be, saved.
Two streams were ' played oh the
engines, and after the fire each
engine was found to contain two
full guages of water. The machinery
was but slightly damaged, though
the cabs and the wood work were
burned out. The engines have been
sent to the shops at Laurinburg to
be overhauled.
The origin of the fire is not known
There was no fire in the engines, and
at 3 o'clock the night watchman
could see no signs of fire in or about
the round house. The old round
house of the Carolina ' Central at
Charlotte was burned p. a similar
manner eight years ; ago, and No.
415, then a brand new engine, was
rescued from that fire. The round
housewiH at once be rebuilt. r
