Night-A Big Attendance.
The first annual ball of Minnehaha divis-
ion No. 2oo, g. l. A. to the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, at Melrose last night
says the Journal-Press, was pronounced
success. The "fyer" west bound yesterday
afternoon from this city had an extra coach
filled with St. Cloud people bound for the
ball. Sank Centre sent large quota and the
residents of Melrose turned out almost en-
masse to aid a worthy cause. The result
was that during the earlier part Of the even
ing the rooms were literally packed with
dancers and spectators, and not until the
smaller hours had made their appearance
was the floor sufficiently cleared for enjoy
able dancing. Kinnamon's full orchestra of
Sank Centre furnished very good music. The
ladies served supper and also lemonade dur
ing the evening and no pains were spared
by those who had the affair in charge to
make it success. The program of twenty
four numbers with several extras added for
good measure were danced and everybody
left vowing that an exceedingly happy even
ing had been enjoyed. The committees for
the ball were as follows:
| Master of Cer.monies-Fred Marvin.
