Enjoyable Masquerade and Hops Last
EVENING".
Last evening seemed To be a favorite one
with various society sets, two grand mas
querades and hop being the most impos'
ing events OF social character.
THE ARIoN MASQUERADE.
The most elaborate masquerade ball ever
given in the city, was probably the one
given by the Arion society at its ele-
CANT club house corner OF Main
and Twentieth streets last even
ing. The attendance was something enor-
nous. It Is estimated that fully three hum
dred and fifty people were present at one
time or another during the evening. The
main hall presented scene that
was lively and inspiring. The cos.
tunes with very few exceptions
were rich and tasty. Instead Of being
cheap and tawdry, as is usually the case,
they were just the opposite, and silks,
satins and velvets predominated, made up
in striking and picturesque styles.
The Committee OF Arrangements left
nothing undone and that body deserves
credit. 1t was composed OF Messrs.
Louis Dechert, I. Dreihost, George Bow
ers, j. A. Hess, Frank Woeber, Ed.
ward schambra, F. Dietrich, Frank Hotf.
man, Frank Stamm, Z. Hosbach, o. w.
Appenzeller and Charles Menkemeller.
The dancing was in charge OF Messrs.
Woeber, Hoffman and Bowers. The supper
was gotten up by Heyman and of>course
was nice. The Opera House orchestra
played. The dance programme contained
several clever hits. About twenty mem
bers of tie Legislature grlced the occasion
with their presence. II was splen.
did wind up Of the Arion's social
life before the Lenten season, and will
ever be remembered as one OF the most
successful mdsQue balls ever held in the
city.

A most enjoyable dance was given out
at Mt. Bellview Hotel last evening by "The

gone abroad in the land.

The Wheeling Turner Association gave
it's annual grand Bal Masque at its hall last
night, and most successful affair 1t was,
adding to the laurels Of the society as SO.

with masquers, and many Of the costumes
were unique and elaborate. The gentle
men Of the Starlight Social Club attended
in body, dressed as modern minstrel
troupe, and having the regulation

other instruments. They were pronounced
