The Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State February 5-1881 -cont'd.- Batavia's Beauties, And Their Numerous Attractions. Exclusively for Our Lady Readers, Which We Trust They Will Peruse with Care. (cont'd.) LAY, Charles M.-Is the society pet of Batavia. Tall, magnificent form, straight dark hair, black eyes that make the girls' hearts flutter, and a black, slightly curling moustache, and an excellent dancer; age about 28. His every movement indicates grace and dignity. He is head clerk in the large dry goods establishment of R.O. HOLDEN & Son and has the entire supervision of trimming their large show windows, in which work his taste cannot be excelled. Taking all into consideration, Charles is the most popular young man in town with both the girls and boys. Now girls, here is a great catch for you. LOOMIS, John-At present is clerk in the First National Bank, but hopes at some future day to be president. Has a great faculty of catching on to all the latest songs. Is inclined to be bashful, but is gradually improving in that respect. Is about five feet nine, and a brunette; aged 22. McLEAN, Louis-Aged 26. A heavy weight, but fine form, of medium height, iron grey hair, blue eyes and a handsome nose. The girls say he is a duck and that they can't make any impression on him. He will always "call" a needy friend to his side and was never known to "pass" the poor when he had a "full" purse. "Scotch" is a nice boy and is very popular. He is a bank clerk, and stops at the St. James. MILLER, A.T.-Another bank clerk, black hair combed straight back. The girls think him a darling. Has pretty eyes and is fond of ladies' society. Age 19. McWAIN, A.J.-The local pages of the 'Batavian' bear witness to the ability, good taste and energy of this commendable young gentleman. Dark hair and eyes, slim and graceful, with a frank, open countenance upon which is depicted lots of fun and mischief. Somewhat capricious in his tastes for the fair sex. Full of good natured combativeness. He is sure to win an enviable distinction in the ranks of journalism. Age 20. McCANN, Will-Blonde, aged about 25, and carries a small but handsome figure. Dresses with elegance and taste. Dresses with elegance and taste. The girls all go into raptures over him, but we believe his heart is still free; however if we are misinformed we shall be glad at any time to correct it in our columns. He jerks calico in the dry goods store of E.N. STONE, and we doubt not that Mr. STONE owes the most of the fair ones' trade to the captivating manners of his efficient clerk. O'CONNOR, E.-Is a thorough going business fellow. Not married but ought to be. Is also of the opinion that HANCOCK ought to have been elected. Drives a fast horse. Not bad looking and would make a good catch. PERFIELD, Tom-Another member of the bar (St. James), has any amount of friends and always greets them with a smile. Good looking, handsome moustache, and wherever he goes always leaves a good impression. Would make a girl a good man, but he man(ages) to avoid their society as much as possible. We are informed by Mr. PERFIELD that his marriage will take place at an early date. PAGE, Onis-Tall and slim, quite good looking; by occupation a dry goods clerk. Good base singer, and never does anything base. Boards at the European, and has lots of fun. Age 29. PAGE, Frank-Now here we have a splendid fellow. Blonde, medium height, blue eyes, and just the nicest little moustache you ever saw. Frank handles the cue in a pretty manner, and can do the swell act in the finest way. "Donk," as he is commonly called, is a great ladies' man, and from appearances he is in a fair way to give up his bachelor quarters. TYRRELL, Will-Somewhat quiet. He is familiarly known as "Bob," and is chuck full of dry wit and humor. His laugh comes right from the heart. Has a light moustache and is about 21 years of age. WORTHINGTON, Gad-Jolly and full of fun. Is the life of the party and an excellent singer. Blonde and of medium size. Aged about 25. He should have a wife by all means. WOOD, Will-Painter by trade and leads in his profession. Somewhat bashful in female society, but is quite the reverse with the opposite sex. Plays in the band, and seems to enjoy it. Will probably not marry for some time to come. Age, 26. WOOD, Frank S.-A catch because he can be depended upon and the girls are not slow in seeing it. He is about medium height, and straight as an arrow. Black hair and eyes, and a nice little brown moustache. There is no young man in town we know of who is better situated, both in business and financially than Frank. He is a deep thinker and says but little. Age about 25. YOUNG, Webster-The handsomest man in town, is a real swell, but don't part his hair in the middle. Just about right size and graceful form. Brunette, fine black eyes and a lovely moustache. He is a New Yorker, and is here assisting his brother managing "The Cottage." Steals all the girls hearts but don't seem to know it. Is a fine conversationalist, aged 30. YOUNG, James-Handsome as a picture and a great society man. Sets a bad example to all the young men in living a bachelor life. Clutch him girls! Is ticket agent of the Erie road, tall, black hair and eyes, a daisy of a moustache and aged about 35. "Jim" is always on hand at parties, and when he does his specialty acts never fails to elicit rounds of applause. *** Pigeon Match. A match shoot at pigeons to-day between H.C. FISH and Wm. TUTTLE ended in favor of Mr. TUTTLE. Mr. TUTTLE took his birds easily, and won the favor of the party, although pools sold against him. Mr. FISH now challenges any amateur in Buffalo or Batavia for $25. *** Small-Pox Panic. Chicago, Feb. 4.-The many cases of small-pox in the County Poor-House at Jefferson caused a sensation here. Near the Poor-House stands the Insane Asylum. The inmates of both institutions number 1,300. *** Personals. C.J. FERRIN has returned from Washington where he has been for the past week or two. E.N. STONE left yesterday afternoon for Chicago, on a business trip. J.L. FOSTER leaves Monday on an extended business trip through the Western and Southern States. *** The new shoe store in the Walker block is the place for good goods and low prices. submitted by Linda C.
