Notes Events That Are Scheduled
for Tonight Personal Notes.
Tho home of ex-Mayor John U. Fel
lows, near the corner of Luzerne and
'J'enth streets, was almost completely
ruined by Ilro nnd water yesterday af
ternoon, and tho contents nearly all
destroyed.
Tho family left home about 1 o'cloel:
for it slclgh-rlde Into the country, und
while they were away the furnace evi
dently became over heated nnd set Ilro
to tho woodwork. From tho condition
of the premises, It would appear that
tho Mimics spread nil over the house
by means of the lurnnrc pipes.
The Hours and partitions through
which the pipes passed were badly
burned, and the ilrcmcn experienced
much dllllcully in reaching the Hames.
Volumes of smoke tilled tho build-
in,' and made the work of tho firemen
dllllcult. All the carpets wore des
troyed, but pome of the furniture was
icinoved In time to be Mixed. A tele
phone message was sent to .Ir. Fel
lows, and when tho.v returned they
found themselves homeless.
The damage to the interior will reach
n considerable amount, although Sir.
Fellows could not make any cstima.o
last night. lie cairies some Insur
ance, but xvas unable to glvo any de
tails at present.
The family Is temporarily quartet ed
among friends and relatives, as their
home will have to undergo general re
pairs before it can be occupied.
The firemen worked heroically, un
der the most exasperating dilllcultie?,
nnd deserve much praise for the wo,k
accomplished under the circumstances.
In addition to the "West Scranton com
panies, i lu Crystal steamer u.is
called into service.

Masquerade Ball.
Last night's masquerade ball and
festival, given under the auspices of

and artistic success. The hall, which
nad iieen prettily draped for the occa
sion, was tin own open nt 7.-13 p. m
and from that time unit! 0 o'clock a
steady stream of merry maskers passed
through the portal, so that at the hour
last named the management could
have followed the example of theater
people and hung up a sign rending
"slnndlns room nnl v."
It was a brilliant scene, and the con
trast or coloring shown in tile various
costumes, and offset bv tlte bunting
and drapery, produced an effect that
was delightful to the artistic mind,
una cnarniing to tue eye.
All the nations of the earth weir

evidence and played tag with a dude.
Uncle Sam ami John Hull, also were

the characters represented were amus
ing and great care una evident In
some of the marte mis, as vailous
prizes were offered for the best dressed
couple, the poorest dressed couple, and
me most comical make up.
Taken altogether, it was a gicat so
cial event, and the arrangements u
Ileet much ciedlt on the following
committee, who had charge of tho
atfolr: Fred "U'einig. Adolnb ir:mi-
men, Charles Dieting, Henry Meyers
