In addition to that he had to meet the disinclina- tion pf railroads to reduce rates this year on account of the world's fait.

Somewhat of novelty would be the commit- tee on comfort at the ball room without Mr. James E. Beil in charge,and the present in- augural executive committee wisely concluded that for the third time Mr. Bell should be at the head of this most importent committee. ‘The committee has charge of bat, cloak and re- tiring rooms, and control of all ‘arrangements connected therewith for the public comfort at the inaugural bail. Since 1881 Mr. Bel been in charge of such arrangeme system may be said to be just about As in the past, Chairman Bell will hav sistance this year of the carrier fore city post office, more than 100 mentraimed in the art of handling and caring for letters and mail packages. Their training in that important duty renders them especially valuable in receiving and caring for the bats, coats and ladies’ wraps, and the fact that they are men of tried integ- rity gives an assurance of care and security which bas never failed to be appreciated. In 1884 there were $,000 hat boxes: tn 1889, %,280, and this year there will be 10,836. These fig- ures do not fully represent the number attend- ing, for as guests come and go throughout the evening, some remaining not more than half an hour or an hour, one box often answers dur- ing the evening for two persons. Four years ago, Chairman Bell thinks, about 9.500 persons attended the ball according to the bat-box count, and this year he believes from 12,000 to 14,000 people will attend. There will be, of course, no charge made for the use of the con- veniences furnished by Mr. Bell's committee. Dumont, Dawson, D Davie, E.G. Dermody, Jno. J. Devereux, Frank N. Dwyer, P. Duvall, N. H.
