supreme society event OF this season was
the masquerade ball AT the Asylum on
Friday night. 1t is customary for the oih'

dance every Friday night, and on that oc-

consented that the sport-oying people Of
the town might come in mask, and spend
a f4w hours in keeping time TO the magi-
cal strains OF Schmitt's excellent orchestra
after the patients dance had been con-
cluied. The young people assembled at
the Luustill Inn at about : clock, for the
purpose of arranging their costumes.
