THE BALL AT DALEY s.-The ball at
Dailey's City Hotel last night was one
of the most select and pleasantest
affairs We have ever attended in Wheel
ing. The company was composed OF
representatives from our rest and most
fashionable citizens. The toilets were
uuexceptionable, AMI some of them gu
perb. About fifty couples occupied the
floor, about seventy-fve couples being
present. The large billiard room at
tached to the hotel was converted into
a dining room, and here was spread all
that could please the eye and tempt or
delight the palate. Our friend DALEY
fairly surpassed himselfin arranging and
carrying out the details of this superb
ball. The music was furnished by
Kramers string band and was superb.
Better dancing music never aided flying
feet to pass the happy hours.
