That our city contains some OF the
most beautiful and cultivated ladies In
the state, and who would reign rs So
cial stars In any circle, cannot be de-
MED, and we believe they are, rs a
general thing, disposed to render their
aid, always 50 captivating and seldom
other than successful, TO all occasions
where their personal presence Is re-
qulred. But on the occasion Of the
ircmens' ball, Oh Thursday night,
there was very marked absence OF
the ladies Of our city, 1t may have
been that many of them are away from
home and the balance may have had
all excuses equally reasonable for not
attending but II would have been bet
ter, In this case, If they had planned
in advance against peradventure of
non-Httendance and thus supplied n
vacancy somewhat noticeable and in
many instadccs severely criticised

THE FIREMAN. BALL.
A Scene of lncqualled Beauty.

a fitting climax to the royal gaieties
of "the day we celebrate" both in de-
gree of splendor and the refined char
acter of the enjoyment was the grand
ball given to our visiting ilremen on
Thursday evening, The beautiful west
room of the court house, By 8 o'clock,
was filled with gay dancers, and the
tones of brilliant music from Prof
Langes band. The tasteful uniforms
of the iiremen contrasted handsomely
with the rich and elegant toilets of the
Indies, while those in citizens dress of
the most stylish pattern, added to the
pichresqueness of the scene.
AS many as fifty couples Were
upon the floor ut once, from the oldest
to the youngest, and glowing eyes and
beaming faces attcsted to the hearth
ness of the enjoyment. The grand hall
of Fields opera was also placed in order
for the dancers, so that all might par
ticipate without the Inconvenience re-
sulting from an overcrowded room. A
band was supplied and several couples
took advantage of it,
AT ten O'clock the doors of Odd Fell
lows hall We're thrown open, and all sat
down to splendid supper, the produc-
ton OF that accomplished restaurateur,
Kingdom, Every dish was perfection,
and the genius of the prince OF cooks
was displayed on the cloth. a few re-
turned to the dance after supper,
which was continued until nearly
morning.
