New York, April 27. The centen
nial ball, waic ( has been a the ne of
universal anticipation for so kng an >ri 1
has again revived interest In the much di -
cussed subject of exa.‘tly what eonstilutes
| New York society. Mr. F,sa’.s resent re
mark that th >ra were tvo “Fo ,r Hun
and ed.” ii Nert Yo -k, w s in a sense true,
aud brings to light another old controversy
in which Ward McAllister figured promi
nently, and whi ;h very probably caused in
the first place the ill fo.ling tint the cen
tennial p parations developed. It is not
generally known outsida a limi ed ci cle,
that there was a decided revolt against M •.
McAllister’s inanageme t aud s If
constituted, but p-rnitro i authori
ty in New York sociity
some five or six years ago. At that
time several ladies of prominent position
and termined to or taniz? a series of Ddinanico
bail-, to be managed by the nseives as op
pos and io the Patriarchs and Junior Patri
arch’s balls whie i we e entirely under the
control of Mr. Mr A! ice". For mitives of
policy Mrs. McAllister’s name was
Included in the Kst of the As
se nblv balls, but this was only a
matter off rra and the McAllister fam lv
hel l aloof even from participating in t.b *se
affairs. These Asse übly balls which are
now called ih* Matnarcns h v l,es i very
snee ssf 1 an I ha ve -er ou-ly dimmed the
luder of the P tirarfb’ balls. They have
bean attended, if is true, by very much the
sami people, but their managers have
claimed for them greater exclu iveness,
and the I -ade s of toe rev It against the
“clan McAllister,” as it has be a called,
have • lume I themselves uoo > their su c <-
ful ' flforts. T e second sen sof opposition
bail , rzanized in onp sit.ion to Mr. McAl
bster’s Pa riarcii balls, although they were
abandoned last year, were in ede i
principally for the onager eleme it.in so
ciety, aud brought the Junior Patriarchs
r ff
*8? M*
to an untimely end. Mrs. Fsh was promi
neyt in the orga iiati >n of i>o h ihestj op
position bal s. an i bene-, perha'Mt, some of
the feeling with which Mr. Fish vas evi
d -ntlv Imbued when th • centennial tn ttor
brought him into dir-ct Cos (1 t with Mr.
McAllister. The inference hai been drawn
from M Fish’/sta ement tha there were
two “P’our Hundre Is,” and that Mr. McAl
lister's ortgnal number sh mid b) and milled,
bu this is hardly correct, for the rea-on
above given; nainelv, that vn y nine the
same set o; pedble attend the two balls.
TANARUS( e de,iosl McAllister was not so tar
w ong. In his or;gi :a! statement be si n
ply gave utteranc o a fact, and lias several
tunes since sa dto Ins friends that h" wus

of things; that ho took charge of New Y k
society as no b uml it, aud that ht thought

i ary. a great No.v Y nr’s subscribtlon ball,
to winch o i.e hund eds er invited whe-e

ballroom. Tie ball, while a sii' ve-s in per
fec appointment and brilliancy of dooora

exclusive set si being socially
a failure, and Mr. McAl

A STORY OF EDISON.
HU First. Big Check, end tbo Trouble
It Gave Him.
” F. 11. .1/." in Cincinnati Gazette.
The other day a sinool.i-faood man, weir
ing handsome clojihes aud displaying a soiled
collar and a necktie all awry, and shoos that
n v.-r expe. iencid the skillful manipulation
of a bootola.’k, and tinge • nails th it nev n*
met n ma ioure, leaned his elbow on
Waihiugbm counter .and conversed in the
jollies wav with a circle of newspaper
friends, lie lo > <ed like a tramp, but he
really is one of the most fa nous m,m in the
world, and his name is known in every
part of the globe. Of course lie is an Ohio
m in. His name is Thomas Alva E Its m,
and he was once a peanut boy and news
butcher on a jerkwater railroad in the
Bu'koye state. During a little luncheon
E ii.so i, between hea ty drinks of bee •, uis
favorite beverage, tol i in his quaint wav
the story of lus first acquaiutanc > wu: li any
larg • sum of mo ley. It was in the days
when he was Strug tling ,al mg witli Ins ear
lier inventions, ami didn’t have big cipital
iststo buck biin. In fact., he didn’t have
any bank ac -mint himself, and bar 11 v knew
what one wa. Hunk checks worn things
lie had never had occasion to use, and hid
ab ut us much idea of their vaiao as the
man in the moon.
K :iso iha 1 finally sold his patent on the
gold and stock indicator to the Western
U uion telegra 'h for $40.05)0, and was coming
over to Now York to get his moms ■.
lie had heard of Wall street anil its bulls
and bears, and had boon told that it was
full of ,- siiaik-” who would tleeci a man
very quick. (So he made up his mind that
Wall street wa; a very dangerous pla e,
and that if he ever had occasion to go there
lie would lie lucky if ho got a way without
losing his overcoat anil umbrella.
At tha: time Gen. Lefforts was president
of the Westorn Union. One morning
Edison came into tue company’s general
office to close no the sale of liis patent.
After a few preliminaries ho was given a
check for ¥4O,(MX).
He looked at it curiously for a moment or
two aud anpiuired to be puzzled wnat to do
w ith it He knew that ho had sold a patent
1 1 tlie Western Union company , for ¥40,030
but he did not soe an v iin nev. Obsoi viug
ii perplexity Gen. Leffarts told nun tlett
iif he would go to the Ha'k of Ame Goa in
Wall s‘rcot h i could ;ct the <• i 'I - caslie 1.
“'H 1 turt.al,” ouid Edison, “ilbu ca ofullv
fold ..gup too check, and went town H
Wall street. So u.icertaiu was lie roguid
to ; ,iat wav Ol lining hnuiiiess that l tnongt
wnile on the way that if any man shou' l
com •up to uie and offor me tw i cri.qi sl,-
000 hi lit for that piece of paper 1 should
give him up i.lie check very quick.”
On arriving at. the Ba kof America he
lies fated about entering, fearing still that
something might be wrong. At last, how
ever, ho rnus ered up tne courage and de
termined to try it. lie know that Go .
Eeti'erts had told him lie would geo Uis
money here, so he braced ahead and half
trembling shoved his check out to tbo
cashier.
The latter scrutinized it closely, gave
E lis >u a piecing gl ;nc and sail some
thing which E iison could not understand,
us he was hunt of hearing.
1 lar. was enough. )ie was new nine
thini ever convinced thathii “check” wasn’t
worth *40,000, and again thou'lit ns he
res led on. of ihe bank with it. that any
man who would give lain SO,OOO could wait
away with the chock.
He hurried back to the Western Union
and aid he couldn’t get anv mo my. Gen.
Lefforts then se it a man wit i hi n to nle iti
fv him. Ho said: “This is Mr. Thomas
A. Edis >n, to whoso order the check is
drawn.”
“Why, certainly, Mr. Elf sail,” said the
cashier, very obsequiously, “how would
you like your $40,00 l—in what shape?”
“O ', any way to suit the hank. It
doesn’t make any difference to me so long
a- I get my money.”
Edi-on was given $40,001l In large bills.
After dividing the roll into wads of $20,00 )
each he st “fed one into each trousers pock
et.. buit me l up his coat as tigutiy as possi
lil“, and made a break to get <ut of Wall
street us qu ck as no could. The next day
