last Saturday night with a grand mas
querade ball at the court house. The
queen and her court arrived at half
past ten but owing to delay of the
orchestra the grand march did not
commence until eleven o'clock. The
queen viewed the march from the
judges bench. There were between
thirty and forty couples in mask. be-
sides great many people in street cos
tune looking on. For the first two or
three dances no one was allowed on
the floor except those in mask. This
ball was a very pretty affair and a
great success. Most of the costumes
were very unique and attractive and
there were many various styles to be
seen, the peasant, cook, negro, fairy,
Chinaman, Indian. colonial dame,
country girl. street fakir, and gypsy,
but the most numerous of all cos
tunes were the black and pink domi-
noes.
Seven dances were danced before any
masks were removed and it was a Jolly
crowd trying to identify their numer-
Gus partners The program was more
varied than usual as more square
dances We're put in for the benefit of
those who do not waltz or two-step. A
most enjoyable time was spent and the
ball did not break up till the wee hours
of the morning. The ball committee.
