was finely executed, MT. and Mrs. and Mrs. M. c. Higgins as second cou- pie, MT. and Mrs. Thomas Beokley as third couple and MT. and Mrs. J. J. Corkery as fourth couple. The march was directed by Prof. Maher, who act ed as prompter.
 For the eighteen numbers on the pro- gramme Miller's orchestra furnished the music, and it was of the usual high type and brought forth rounds of ap- plause. and many encores were given.
 The Decorations.
 The bunting decorations were the same as at the Third company's ball. red white blue and yellow being eff fectively used, while the electric dis play was the big feature. about 1000 lights being used. Over the orchestra stand was the illuminated sign CHAR TTY, while the illuminated star in front of the stand had a large c in the center. Otherwise there were no changes in the electric decorations from what the Third company had. Half of the lights were turned on early in the evening, but at the opening of the grand march the remainder were thrown on, causing a burst of electric light through the shed which was re- ceived with surprise and delight.
 As master of ceremonies James B. Shannon proved a clever engineer, ev- erything passing off with smoothness and precision, while everyone took part in the very happy occasion with en- thusiasm and enjoyment.

Shannon has devoted unlimited time and atten- ton for the past number of weeks, while she has been given every assist ance by the members of her commit rr1r- 4s AL T-- in charge of Mrs F. H. Hartman, who through previous experience proved a master hand in that depart ment-
