The twelfth annual ball of the Pio neer Hook & Ladder Co. took place at the Opera House Monday night, and, as UBual, was a splendid affair, first to last. A goodly number of spectators were present in and under the galleries, and seemed to enjoy themselves about as hugely as the maskers on the floor. Most of the masks were impenetrable, and the W. Y. Bissell Hoso Team were especially so. They entered the hall together, preceded by Mr. Bissel himself car rying a banner indicating what the procession were. They were masked alike as Wandering Jews, in black shrouds, white faces, long white beard and hair, aud carried canes. Their entrance in a body was a signal for cheer after cheer. The team were as follows: Geo. Spooner, Henry Hock enberger, Will Dougherty, Frank Turner, Cap Tschudy, Frank Proise, W. B. Backus, Frank Dougherty, Jno. Becher, Tom Wake, Julius Phillips, Mr. Ingomar, Wm. Becher. We give below a list of the mask ers, and if any names are omitted, it must be attributed to the great diffi culty of making it perfect during the excitement of the dance. Pat.
