A Weather PrunUet That Knocks Old Probs Rllly— How Its Signs are Road by the Initiated. The goose-bone as a prophet of the winter weather has been before the people too lone to require any introduction here. Tho bone and the secret of reading it has frequently been told, and tin se who watch for Its yearly predictions fully understand these points. The bone this year is very plentifully marked. r. »d though some find a mystery in it* .Lop discolorations, all unite on the prophecy of exceed ingly cold weather during January. There is more grease in tho boue than usual, and the re l stains are of a brighter hue. two strong sigURofcold weather. Throughout the three months of the winter there will be a great vnriolv of weather; the Indications of change are very general all nloug the bone, hut wet and cold will predominate nnd good fires will be welcome nil through. As tho goose bone has generally told the truth in the past, a pood housekeeper will n-e that his coal house is well filled. For tho poor the picture that the bouc presents is not encour aging, and there is fear of much suffering. Coal te already high, and dealets predict that prices will further advance and be firmly maintained Tho charitv organizations aud charity people will find plentv to do this winter. The reading of the bone is that the Christmas holidays will be cold with sleet and mopt prob ably snow. The general character of the weathei for the month will be falling and not much will be seen of the sun. The average temperature will be lowee than usual. January will come in with a bliiRter—rain,snow and cold—juj*fc nuch weather as makes people feel best at home. Along about tho 9th of the month, however, the lines on the bone become indistinct Indicating more pleasant weather. This, how ever, is onlv a prelude of what is to follow. About the middle of the month red spots on the be grow more brilliant,and the dark, greasy tracin spread out over the whole bone, thus indicating very severe weather. Many well versed in goose- ology say that they never before saw tho bone sc terriblv marked. A careful reading predicts a Btorm about the 16th of the month, followed hv some of tho coldest weather ever felt in this latitude; and when it is remembered tlist the mercury in Louisville has beeu 20° btv low zero some idea may be formed as to what to expect. The storm here spoken of may be a few days earlier or later, as it is hard to single out days on the boue, but along about the middle of January great storms and exceedingly cold weather may be looked for. Upon the whole, the month will show much snow, and the aver age temperature will be lower than probably we have ever known. The first days of February will be cold, and if the little ground-hog comes out on the 2d he will be In danger of freezing. After that the weather will moderate very decidedly, and the remainder of the month will be changeable, but with no re markable weather. A kind of nondescript month that wiU have nothing particular to distinguish tt from o* her Februaries. Here the prophecy of the bone ends, but with tho heavy drifts of snow that such a winter will leave in the mountains, and the ground frozen too hard to drink In the water, it is probable that the riven will wash out the record of flood tides. OUT OF OAltKNKSH INTO LIUIIT. A Faithful snd Noble Hand Show Their Apprcrla- tlon—Mr. John King Presented with a Wold 1 Headed Cane. Yesterday morning a bare announcement of the fact was made that the compositors of tlieEN- quikkh-Hun had presented Mr. John King, busi ness manager of the office, with a gold-headed cane. It w"8 in the wee sma’ hours of the night wlien tho presentation took place, tho busy fingers had ceased to stick type for the night and the lornis were ready for the press. But a more pleasant affair never took place in Columbus,and deserves more than passing notice. Mr. W. C. Turner, foreman of the office, had been selected to present the cane, and at the head of as noble and faithful band of compositors os ever com prised the force of a daily newspaper, entered the business office and said: “Mr. King: Tho very pleasant duty has been imposed on me, by the printers of tho Enquirhr- 8un office,of presenting to you,as a token of their friendship and esteem, and as an ovidenco of their high appreciation of tho muny kindnesses shown them by you in the past, this cano. We have in all our dealings with you found you to bo considerate of our feelings, watchfhlof our inter ests, just in every transaction, and faitbfhl to the keeping of every promise. We, os the compos ing room force, desire to give you this memoir to keep in the years to come, that it may remind you of the men who learned to be your friends while having the closest busineBs dealings with you. May it bo many yearn before you need this cane to lean on; but when at last you must de_ pend upou it for support, may you find also the comfort that comes from leaning on a stronger rod and stuff than this—the rod and staff upon which all just men like must lean in thi3 valley of darkness, until their spirits aro made perfect in a better vorld above.” Mr. King was taken completely bv surprise. If tho printers had come at him with a pistol in stead of a gold-headed cano he would not have been more entirely taken umiwares. After taking the stick he took off bis hat and began his shod and informal speech of thanks. The printers mid the stuff gathered about him with their liats in their hands. Mr. King said: “Mr. Turner, and gentlemen of the composing re<»m force: In returning you my hearty and heartfelt thanks allow me to eay that I was not looking in the least for this beautiful testimonial of your friendship and regard forme. It comes tome to-night like a hurst of light thro ugh a cloud of overhanging darkness. In order to let you understuud liow opportunely this present and this occasion comes to me, I must tell you what otherwise I would never have mention ed. An hour ago I sat in the office alone. And I was thinking, thinking, as a man at my time cf life is given to doing. I don’t know why, but I felt more oppressed and low-spirited than I had felt for many a day. 1 could hear the sound of the Chrivtnias revelry outside, but it only made me the sadder. These moods come to us nil at times. And this one to-night was like a burden on my shoulders. How little 1 suspected then that my feeling of (pp’easion was but “the dark est houi that comes before the dawn. This in cident has dispelled the gloom aud lighted up the darkness. I thank yi u again; nnd I promise that T will always keep with orido this evldenco of the good feeling and friendship that exists be tween me and every one of you.” TiiK cKinuL itona Was yesterday the most brilliant scene of Ohrf-di- mas enjoyment cv or known in Columbus.

Columbus uud Girard have interests which are common ai.d Identical. None more so tha.i those growing out of religion and morals. Girard 1ms for several years been contemplating the erection of a new Baptist church, a »d this year rhe work has actually begun. Facta and figures are potent aud the following will show the progress in money raining: From all sources, $1102.?.5. Of this £128 was raised by the church two years ago. Hi nee then from the sale of church and lot, $850; by .-inscription, $311; from Columbus,$S8; Browne- ville, $13ri3; Girard, $173; Baptist Ladies’ Aid society, $50. This has all been exhausted and the work has stopped for want of funds. The frame work of the structure Is about completed, but much inside work and the painting remain:} to be done. As. the Girard Buntists are weak financially, it is earnestly honed that liberal- hearted friends in Columbus and the surround- sag section u ill come to tho rescue, that the work may advance to completion.

Ladles Who Desire the Toe Torched at Seasonable lloars—New Modes of Danclogaod Masters of tho Art. One of the most prominent among the “heads of families,” who sometimes attend the germane, gives the Enquirer-Bun in formation that there is a new move on foot with regard to germans. lie states that there are quite a number of mar ried ladies in the city who like to seo the young people enjoy themselves aud will act as chaper ones at the germans provided they are given at reasonable hours. The idea of going at 10 o’clock and remaining until 1 o’clock iri the morning ia considered by them entirely out of good taste and void of common sense. If they go at 8 o’clock and disperse at 11 o’clock the ladies eay they vill serve them with the greatest pleasure, otherwise they will not, and the Enquibjir-Sun has been requested to say as much. And talking about dancing, it seems that the only persons who can work at cross purposes suc cessfully are dancing masters. They have their own peculiar ideas, which are forever changing, and the result is that their pupils are nearly al ways in h helpless state of confusion. Each dancing master, or professor, us ho likes to be called, in a great inventor in his own way. A few yearn ago, when the Saratoga was first intro duced, an up town professor noticed that, none of his pupils could dance it nearly so well ana young lady who turned her toes in. He imme diately concluded that this was the only way to execute this dunce. His pupils were shocked at tho next lesson to see the elderly and digni fied professor walk across the waxed floor with his toes striking against each otl^er and his Jeg3 curved like a rainbow. This style was not popular, and tho efforts of the professor to introduce it nearly miked him fiuu.n- daily. It spoiled the contour of his logs, for he hue been a trifle pigeon-toed ever since. In a ball room a few nights ago four couples were doing the best they could to dance the lancers. They had never seen each other before, and so they smiled sweetly when they collided,anrl said: “Excuse me,” or “J beg your paid on." Secretly they dubbed each other ignoramuses who did not know anything more about dancing than a cow. Later in tbe evening they met again, and, of course, the talk turned upon dancing. To the amazement cf nil they lear ned they had been taught to dance by the same teacher. Their classes only lasted a year, but the steps having changed in style as often as the style of a plug hut changes they found it impossible to dance together with any degree of comfort. At a meeting of the professors of 1884 several new dances were originated. Among these wore too excelsior waits and the wait;:*quadrille (special.) It was also determined that the proper way to dance the fanciers was with eight couple instead of with four, and that the ger man could He vastly improved by . the addition of overal complicated figures. The professors agreed to frown upon the society waltz, because a number of ndgar persons had exaggerated it so that it was situ ply a burlesque. It was accord ingly frowned upon him, but in a few weeks it was revived under the various names of the rodowa, gilsade, tho Unickerbocker, the kick, the sco-'p, tho telf.pbon*' and a dozen other plebeian titles. After a deal of study and p.itient tho lght tho excelsior was introduced. This was intended to be danced with a moderate slide and the rodowa step revolution, with the side step similar to that of the galop. It was thought Dial this would Gil the bill to per fection, bat it had hardly been introduced before a lot of professors who didn’t belong to the so ciety, began teaching it, too, aud so made it com mon ami vulgar. Tho only dance that has held its own despite all the innovations is the waltz- quadrille. “Tho landers are changed, too,” said au old professor. “They were formerly danced in tho old Snmtoga stylo, but now it takes oigbt couples to go through with them properly. The heads oha?aes ft* m right to left diagonally, not forward and b ’-ok as in the old style. This keeps all the couples ill motion at tho same time.” The Columbia is a roun l dance, something like the American gayot, only livelier and considera bly more intricate. A very popular dance is the octagon, uud one reason tV»r it a popularity is tbe fact that there is no waltzing in it. There aro thousands of pleasure-loving people who are bit terly opposed to waltzing becauso they doom it improper for a young man to place k?s arm about a young woman unless she ia his wife. Even then they think that any such ac tion as this should bo couGood to private life. Clo. o dancing of all kinds will be frowned upon this season, uud tbe English method of holding your girl away from y ou as though she had been eating onions will be adopted. Arm Amputated. Stafford Henderson, a well-known colored ex pressmen, was shot in tin*arm by a woman named Elia Laugdon At a dance on Friday night. The pistol seems to have been jammed right against his arm, as the bone was shattered into frag ments. On yesterday Dr. tteth N. Jordan arupit tated his arm at (he shoulder. The indications are that he will gee well. He was getting along all right laat night.
