snce of the Miner. 1.-THE finest soiree OF the
year" as the verdict unanimously passed
whom tho hands of the clock pointed to 4:30
on Tuesday morning told it was time to
draw the curtain over scene OF revelry
unparalleled in the annals OF Anaconda.

it was q sight to see the fair and blushing
gentlemen escorted by the gallant ladies
arrive in one unceasing stfeam from that
hour until 10 o'clock at the doors OF the
opera house. Within, the arrangements
were perfect in every particular. The Or
chestra, under the leadership of Professor

with every toilet requisite; and the supper
was a fit banquet for the gods. At 10

in the unavoidable absence of the gentle
man engaged to act in that capacity.
