IMPAIRMENT AGAIN AROUNDs.

pIoyes of Wm. Nicely aL Go. the Larg-
 est of the Season-The Many Specta-
 tors Beautiful Costumes = Those
 Who Enjoyed the EvenIng-A Grand
 Success.
 The Hyperion was again filled with throng of dancers last evening and every effort was made to rival the great event of the night before if possible, if not in splen- dor of detail, certainly in pleasure and en- joyment. This ball was given by the em- ployes of the large dry goods house of Wm. Neely & Co.,, and it is no longer question as to the entire success of the event which has been looked forward to with so many anticipations of pleasure by so many patrons and employees of the firm.
 The inside of the Hyperion was dressed in the same decorations which had formed such a beautiful enclosure for the Charity ball of the night before. and everything smiled as auspiciously as the certainty of success and a general pleasure feast could tempt anything to smile The number of people who at- tended the ball, both as participants and spectators, was perhaps as large if not larger than that which has been at any other event of the kind during the season. The demand for tickets was very great and the three thousand tickets issued were gone almost in twinkling.
 The occasion was one that will be pleas antly remembered by all who enjoyed it. The boxes were well filled with friends of the firm and the dancing area p1 resented one hap py whirl of pleasure and merriment from the moment that the grand march burst forth in- to the first merry dance to the early morning moments when feetipg Time appeared upon the scene with his scythe chilled in the breath of the cool morning airs and hurled forth his stern mandate for the thoughtless votaries of the dance to cease and turn back to the silence of slumber and dream.
 One of the favorite spots during the even- ing, especially the later part, was the dining hall of the Morton house, where Caterer Bradley had prepared large and tempting variety of viands to suit the taste of the hun gry dancers. The covered promenade lead ing from the theater to these refreshment rooms was very much frequented. The con- cert music was furnished by the Second regiment band and was one of the features most enjoyed by the throng who participated in the ball.
 After the harmonies of the concert had vanished amid the waiting throngs, the first melodies that were to herald the grand march were heard and the gay possession began to form. The march was headed 5y MT. R. 0. Groning and wife and MT. Wm. Nicely. About one hundred and fifty couples partici- pated and the spectacle was one of elaborate appearance. The throng of spectators was probably the largest ever seen at ball in
