The Saengerbund's Ball Receipts for
That Purpose.

The Washington Saengerbund last night
gave its grand annual masquerade ball at
National Rifles Hall, which drew one OF
the largest crowds ever assembled in that
spacious auditorium.
The masquers were made up in splendid
costumes as 10 hiding their identity, and
seemed To prevail in affecting modern
characters and modes. A colored camp
meeting, seaslore girls, The tSaengerbund
home: or, music in several characters, the
Transvaal republic and other groups were
fine. and some of the individual represcn-
tations were better than are ordinarily
seen at nlasquerades.
1t was a jolly crowd, and. with q large
and efficient orchestra, danced nierrily for
several hours. Down stairs refreshments
of tempting kind were served. The
funds derived will go to a fund which is
being raised to build new home for this
popular society.

THAT of the pies consumed In New York

in the morning in the bakeries were produced
to supply the luncheon and midday dinner
demand; but that of those that were eaten
for breakfast the greatest number were

a breath OF fresh air before breakfast, go
out for the newspaper and for fresh rolls

pie as an article OF breakfast food, and
the other morning bought two.

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
REORGANIZATION Effected Last Night-All
Officers Re-Elected.

Officers Reelected.
The Board of Health met in the Council
Chamber last night for reorganization. All
the old members, President Spalding and
Messrs. Morrison, Malone, Miles and McHale
were in attendance.
Mr.. p. d. Holman, who was recently ap-
pointed by the Borough Council to represent
the Fourth ward on the Board, succeeding
Mr.. T. f. Miles, was present and sworn in,
after which the old Board adjourned sine die
and the reorganization was proceeded with.
All the old officers were reelected and the
reorganization took but a few minutes. The
officers are DR.. S. c.. Spalding, president
John W. Curtin, secretary; Patrick Conry,
Health officer. There was no opposition to
any of the officers. DIR. Spalding did not de-
cline a denomination for president, but he
stated that if any other member of the Board
would take the office it would be very salts
factory to him. He did not wish the office,
and in fact was not anxious to be a member
of the Board. No one seemed inclined to
take the sceptre and the doctor was again
installed.
1t was decided to meet again next Wednes-
day evening, when the president will
announce his committees and other business
demanding early attention will be transacted.
