Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1877-04-27
The Anniversary Bail.

The crowd commenced gathering at
Mendes' Hall at an early hour last
evening, and by the time the grand
march struck up a goodly number OF
dancers were on the floor. The hall
was in first.class order, the walls
tastefully decorated with pictures, and
the long row of chandeliers down the
center of the room cast their mellow
rays over a light. hearted and happy
asseinblage. Mountain Lodge, No.
II, under whose auspices the ball was
given, had arranged all the details
with great care, particular attention
having been paid to the comfort OF the
fair SEX, and their efforts were more
than appreciated. The cloak and
toilet room was situated at the farther
or Main-street end Of the hall, and the
ladies were duly escorted to the thresh-
old by their escorts, who waited with
patience for their r%eappearance on the
scene disrObed of their wraps and in
all the gOrgeousness of bewitching
ball costumes. The music stand wa,
also placed at the same end of the
hall, and the music consisted OF five
pieces, under the direction of Mr..
Minnella. The selections OF quadrille
music, waltzes, gallops, etc., was ex-
cellent and evinced good taste on the
part of the leader. The dancing COM
menced at ten O'Clock, aud by eleven
the hall was crowded. In fact, the
only drawback to the pleasure OF
those present was the very large
number who could not find
broom on the floor, notwith-
standing the capacity of the
hall. To attempt TO describe the
ladies' costumes in detail would he an
impossible task. Suffice it to say that
as usual the dresses were ravishing,
and set off by the charms of the fair
wearers. We doubt if any metropoli-
tan party could Guido the many brill
liant and costly costumes worn by the
ladies of Eureka on the OCCASION, and
their laughing eyes and bright smiles
were bestowed on the chevaliers with a
grace that must have caused their
adorers the h~eartache. Daintily clad
feet kept time to the witching strains,
and dance followed dance until a late
hour this morning, when the company
retired, delighted with their ex perien-
ces. Among those present, we noticed
the following ladies':
Miss Lizzie Gillen. Miss Helnsr Swensson.
