FANCY DRESS BALL.

One end of the hall was embowered in greenery, and formed a pleasant and cool retreat for tired dancers. Marriage's band supplied perfect music, and Mr W. H. PheeJy provided a splendid supper. Messrs H. Barnes, C. Annett, W. Or. Smith and J. Grover acted most efficiently and courteously eb M.C.'s. It was regretted that the secretary, Mr W. L.
