turn to the left instead of to the right in
passing others on the sidewalks and in the

Masque Ball

The grand Masque Carnival Ball at
the Park opera house, the fitting finale
of the carnival gaities Of yesterday, was
in fact the crowning event OF this week
of gaiety and frivolity.
Could the knights and ladies OF the
olden times have looked from some van
tage point, at the gorgeously arranged
10th century assemblage, at the opera
house last night, nothing but envy
would have been discovered on their
faces, at the faithful mimicry with
which their day and generation was be-
ing portrayed.
The Park opera house may have con-
tanned at some time or another as gay
an assemblage. but we have no recollec-
ton OF It,
Promptly at $50 o'clock. the King and
Queen of the masked festivities, whose
identity had been kept a profound Sc
cret, with their royal party consisting OF
DR.. Henderson and Richard E. Meserve
and the maids of honors we're Misses
Leone Lopas, Dora Price, Made
Van Buren, and Pearl Bannister,
took their positions before the throne
and were seated.
The grand march was at once inaugu-
rated and the marching Sir Knights,
maids and other maskers fled before
the throne to receive the royal ap-
proval.
1t was a scene long to be remembered,
the varied colors, bright and beautiful
gowns, together with the grotesque ones
making an ensemble thoroughly en-
trancing to the beholder.
The royal party remained in masque
until the hour had arrived to reveal
themselves, when at the word OF com
mand, they took position in the centre
of the hall and removing their masks,
appeared as Mr. James Silcox, as king
and Mrs. John g. Mckinney as queen.
Throughout the whole time they were
masked they looked every inch king
and queen.
Tho queen WAS robed In a gorgeous
white satin gown, en- train, trimmed with
mouselline de soir and pearl passamen-
trie. The kings costume was resplend-
ent in rich, red velvet; with silver trim
mipgs. The mantle and coat being lined
in delicate pink satin. He wore the
conventional doublets and hose in pink
Isle. Possibly no handsomer couple
could have been selected to fill this deli
cate and important position than those
who so successfully assumed the role.
Both the lady and gentleman are tall, OF
commanding figures and having faces
expressive OF more than ordinary char
acter. The position is a trying one to
fill, especially in inaugurating the carni-
val feature in new community, but
every step and movement was done
with grace and dignity and all honor is
due them for their manner OF treatment
of this royal feature OF the carnival.
The carnival ball was a success, there
can be no cavil at this assertion and it's
success was due entire to Prof. Flint
and the members Of his committee who
have worked so earnestly to make it a
success. The best OF order was main
tanned throughout.

The amount of coal consumed by a
vessel during a voyage depends very
largely upon the speed, for the con
sumption of coal increases almost In a
geometrlcal ratio TO the speed. There
are many ships which burn from JOG

consumption being when the vessel is
sailing at a moderate rate. Our men

portion as swift passenger steamers
