At this stand we are near the door, but
before our egress we are obliged to call
at "Floral Bower" where, on our en-
trance, we took check for our hat; nor
can we omit mentioning the tasteful ar
rangement of the bower" nor yet the
polite effectiveness of its presiding ge-
MUS, Miss Pr, who, in consideration
of our connection with the press, was so
kind as to chalk our hat while in her
charge. Ofother and quite as attractive
features of the scene we shall have occa-
sion to speak as the pleasant affair pro-
crosses. The hall will be re-opened this
evening, and, we doubt not, visited by an
increased attendance.
