THE BALL AT THE SOUTHERN.
A Jolly Good Time. and an Immenss
Crowd.

Crowd.
George Chopat. the genial host of
the Southern Hotel, gave party last
Friday evening that was, without a
doubt, the finest ever given in this
part of the country. Any one of the
numerous headlines suggested by the
Free Press would be entirely made.
quate to express the painstaking efforts
of Mr.. and Mrs. Chopat, and the en-.
joyable fruition of those efforts. As
early as seven o'clock teams began TO
arrive from Coryyille, and they kept
on coming until, as one of the resi-.
dents of the coming mining metropo.
lis told the reporter, there was only
one lady left in The camp. The spa.
cious dining room of the hotel was
thrown open, and, after Brooks Nc.
Clane had been unanimously chosen
as Master of Ceremonies. the fun com.
menced. Adolph Rudin's string band
furnished the music; it is therefore
unnecessary to say that 1t was fine.
One of the pleasant features of the
affair was the entire lack of formality
everyone threw off all restraint and
went in for a good time.
At about twelve o'clock supper was
announced, and "courses of the most
refined and epicurean Dishes" pre-.
pared by Mrs. Chopat, herself, were,
under the supervision of James A.
Cardwell, set before the hungry assem-.
blage. After the supper had been done
full justice to, dancing was resumed
and kept up until about 80 Saturday
morning, when the guests departed
with many wishes for the success and
happiness of George Chopat and his
worthy wife.
Some OF the costumes worn by the
ladies were elegant in the extreme, and
the reporter thought at one time that
he would give an elaborate description
of them; bnt upon asking young
lady If her hair was not done up Ia
Pompadour, with Langtiy bangs and
Montagues, and if her dress was not Il
Princess cut bias on the gore. with u
serge fischu, her efforts to rapress a
smile of derison were so apparent that
he concluded it wonld be best to leave
that part of the programme out; as it
is always sure thing that some enc
gets mad at the reporter when he
makes these slight mistakes in the use
of technical terms in describing cos.
tunes.
Among those present from Coryville
were Mrs. p lane, Mrs. Neel, Mrs.
Labreche, Mrs. Pritchard. the Misses
May Plane, May Pritchard and Annie
Pritchard; Messrs. II. Webster, w. T..
Noel, John Mclaughlin, J. Labreche,
Albert Jaqua, w. Veitch, j. August,
Perley Plane. Brooks McCiane, J..
Noodford, and j. D. Mooney. From
Hawthorne were Mrs. Clark, Mrs.
Angel, Mrs. Knapp, Mrs. Moore, Mrs.
Weeks, Mrs: Phipps, Mrs. Murphy,
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Cardwell, Mrs. Prince,
Mrs. Wright, Mrs. McLane, Mrs. Os.
good, Mrs. Morey, Mrs. Chopat, and
the Misses Florence Prince, Irene
Prince, Edna Prince, Gertie Swindell,
Allie Richardson and Dora Schlandorf.
An attempt to give the names of the
Hawthorne gentlemen present would
entail the naming of every man in
town, and as the "cap" case is getting
low, the compostor is calling for
cessation of names.

A Correction.

Angus Mcleod, the great contitu.
tional Treasurer, wishes the BULLETIN
to correct its statement of last week
that he had moved to Mason Valley.
The item would never have been pub.
lished had it not been given by good
authority. Since its publication sew.
eral other persons have given the
same information. The Herald Of last
Saturday says, under the heading,
Zone by One They Leave U.s.
The family of our County Treasurer,
Angus Mcleod, will soon leave us for
their ranch in Mason Valley. One
load OF furniture and other household
effects was taken to the Valley this
week by Billy Aiken.
Ifthis correction regarding the fact
of his having left the county is salts.
factory, Mr.. Mcleod is welcome to It.
As to the portion Of the article re-
ferring 10 his resignation, no corrcc1
ton Is in order. He distinctly and
plainly told this reporter, In the
Ormsby House, Carson, that after the
part he had taken in lobbying for the
segregation scheme, he considered IL
no more than right that he should re.
sign his cfllce, and that his resigna.
ton would be before the County Com.
missienens the following Monday.
Since this statement was made last
week, citizens of Hawthorne have in.
formed the reporter that they heard
him make the same assertion.

A Ball fn the Nenr Future.

citrate the event by giving a grand

it will be brilliant success.

The Mail Nuisanc e.

Considerable complaint having been
made by people in Dayton and else.
where as to the delay in receiving
mail, BULLETIN reporter called on
Postmaster Knapp the other day and
the following is the result of the inter-
view: The complaining parties APP
pear 20 have made mistake in regard
TO who is carrying the mails. The G.
d C., as mail carriers, carry and de-
liver the mails intrusted to them, the
managers Of Wells, Fargo s. Co. hav.
ing nothing to do with them. Hence,
If any blame is to be attached to any
one 1t must be to the United States
Government for not supplying suitable
mail facilities. If, as stated, it would
not pay the Government to put on a
mail car and II force of clerks, Ger.
tainly arrangements could be made to
run pouch from Hawthorne to Wa
buska and Dayton, thus giving these
people mail facilities equal TO any, for,
AS Hawthorne is general distributing
office, there would be no delay in the
transmission of mail to and fro. Mr.
Knapp says that by simply putting on
these pouches, and thereby establish.
ing mail routes to these points, all cause
of complaint would be removed. He
is now in correspondence with the
Superintendent of Railway Mail Ser.
vice in regard to the matter, and hopes
to receive favorable answer soon.
