London, July 9.  A story is told of Quin the player, who had
been to visit a friend at a little country town, that it
would be expected he would give a ball to the ladies before
he left the place.  "Ay, Ay, says Quin, I'll give them a
ball, but it shall be a ball of worsted, to mend their
stockings."
