When the curtain fell there was an evident
movement of preparation for something yet
expected among the guests Neckties were
adjusted, taperiDg fringes arranged, costly
ornaments and elances were directed toward
the most de-irable partners of the dance, for
now the "poetry of motion was to rule the

procession Of the band around the stage was
as usual, q very interesting feature of the
occasion, and gave rise to much merriment
and speculation, for while the maskers knew
their friends among the audience, not one in
the audience could tell their friends among
the maskers.

POINTED IL THE SOUTHERN STATES
dtlCn,ta, OF. There is a significance
in Taft's order that does not seem as

power given in that order for the unlim

What is TO prevent the appointment

would exert over the average voter Of
that State, to say nothing Of the effect
