 The committee having charge of ar engagements for the thirty-seventh an- nual reception and ball of the Sarsfield Guard has completed it's work, and the event, which occurs this evening at the Second regiment armory, will undoubt- edly attract brilliant gathering. Ever since the rehabiiit ation of the company, six years ago, the custom of holding ball Easter Monday night has been fol- lowed with growing success. Each year the ball has become more brilliant af- fair, and it is now one of the leading events of the kind held in the state during the social season. It is an as- sured fact that the ball tonight will eclipse all previous receptions given by the company.
 The demand for tickets and boxes has been very heavy. The boxes were near ly all spoken for before the ball was advertised. All the available room in the armory has been taken for boxes. The galleries will be reserved for spec tators with tickets. The committee says that the ball will be strictly full dress affair.
 Governor Chamberlain and all other state officers will be present. Senator o. H. Platt has written Captain Dono- van very pleasant letter regretting that he cannot dance, but accepted the invitation to be one of the guests of the a company. Mayor Studley will also be present.
 Workmen have completed the decora- tions and electrical display, which will make the armory very beautiful place this evening.
 Apple green and white form the background of the color scheme. En- hancing the witchery of the delicate hued bunting and the rich tapestries, elaborate electrical displays will twin kle here and there over the heads of the dancers, the most splendid display be- ing in the center of the hall in the shape of the sarsfields' company pin, six feet in diameter.
 : An exhibition drill will also be given before the dancing, consisting of the regular United States army physical drill. Captain Donovan and the follow ing picked men will participate: Ser geants J. J. Duffy, J. A. Haggerty W. B. Callahan, F. J. Sweeney and J. F. Donohue, Corporais P. F. Murphy, G. S. Manning, J. J.
