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

must be attributed to the great diffi
culty of making it perfect during the
excitement of the dance.
