GRAND FIREMEN'S BALL.
Dance Old Century Out and the
New In AT the ArmOry.

The invitation committee of Colfax
Engine Co. No. | has issued invitations
to the general public for the grand fire
mems ball, with which the old century
will be bade adieu and the new one well
coined at Armory hall. The ball will
open at the usual hour New Years eve,
with the fourteen pieces Of the Colfax
orchestra in the music stand. One fea-
ture of the evening will be the awarding
of a prize OF S. to the couple under IA
years winning in the prize waltz contest
and there will also be an exhibition
waltz quadrlle by the little folks The
judges are to be Misses Helen James,
Stella Perkins and Minnie Stephens.
The various committees of the com
pany are working for the success of the
ball, the proceeds from which are to 90
to the company treasury, for the benefit
OF the company and the public service
The ball gives every promise OF being the
greatest event Of it's kind ever held in the
city, and is being literally patronized by
all who value the efforts of the fire boys
