so that by midnight, the hour when
in ancient times the ghost was sup
posed to stalk. Turner hall was a scene
of mad merriment and high carnival.
The rules of the bal masque were supposed
to exclude people who were not in dis
guiSe from the fiOOl, but it was only en-
forced as to ladies. AS far as cOstuming
went the weaker sex certainly had the best
of it. Only few of the male bipeds pres

A gentleman who NAL eS some pretenSiOns

his bloOdless combat at the Leland rink an
nOunced the winners of the prizes for cos
tunes to be: Miss Willie Gibson, first
prize; Miss Dana Hazard, second prize;
William Oftus, gentleman's prize.
Mr.. Oftus assumed the disguise of mug
wump, and from the way in which he i'm

Blainite from Maine. Miss Gibson, the
winner of the first prize, was attired in a

but her decorum was mOdesty itself, for
like Langtry she had her Freddie with her.
The first two hours of the ball passed with
out any noticeable outbreaks of mirth, with
the exception of an animated can-can exc
cuted by gentleman named Brooks, whose
vis-a-vis was sprightly nymphe du pave.
Away they went, up and down
the hall. while bystanders held their breath
and hats-the latter for safety and
the former, in observance of a well-known
law of etiquette. One of the widest rev.
elers of the night was an elderly board of
trade man, who confdentially whispered
that his wife was away, and that he in
tended to make the most of 1t. A commO-
dious bar was annexed to the ball room,
and between the acts' the participants in
the festivities sought refreshments. As
the morning advanced the hilarity assumed
bacchanalian aspect, and the dancers
threw into their movements an amount of
abandon that was simply astounding-con-
sidering that the city is supposed to be run
in accordance with narrow-gauge policy
which encourages nothing but church fights

Ex-Mayor Ames interviewed.

A GLOBE reporter met DR.. Ames last
evening and asked him if he had read
Mayor Pillsbury's interview in the Journal,
and if SO, what he thought of it.
DR.. Ames-YeS, / have read IL. l do
not think Mayor Pillsbury said some of the
things there attributed to him. He is an
honest and courteous gentleman, and | be-
lleve him incapable of saying that under
me there would be ian increase of disorder.
crime and profigacy." That sounds lust
like Dave Blakely, and the probability is
that he, and not Mayor Pillsbury, made
that old-time chestnut. Outside of that
personal fling at me, think the mayor did
himself proud and gets out of the political
arena with flying cOlOrs. He has been a
good mayor, true to his principles and hon.
est towards his fellow citizens. In my hum
bic opinion, his only fault as an executive
has been in placing executive responsible
ties in the hands of subordinates, some OF
whom have not done as ne would had be
known what was going on. Mayor Pills
bury is wealthy, and his many friends will
be pleased to see him relinQuish the cares
and veXations of public official and spend
the remainder of his days in enjoying the
fruits of his many years of labor by travel
ing and sightseeing, / have nothing but
good wishes for Mr.. Pillsbury-that he may
live long and prosper.
Say. Doc, are you or will you be a can
didate for mayor"
DIR. Ames-I had intended to keep out OF
politics this spring. but l find that, like the
ice palace, the warmth thrown around me
recently has thawed me out, and l am
again in the hands of my friends. If the
convention dominates me with a voice
which indicates an unmistakable desire on
their part for me to again take the stan
dard, l shall feel called upon &c

front. and if can be made an instrument

Deacon Nettleton put it. l believe in good
order, which is not in any manner incOm-
patible with personal liberty. 1t was nv
good fortune TO be mayor of this city twice
when her people were prosperous and
happy. Yes, the city doomed and property
doubled and tripled in value under the
alleged ''mob rule" as the partisan press
termed il.
What about high license and the dead
line?"

dead line is relic of Puritanism and is an
admission that it takes such measures Il
