took place last Friday evening at this
point. There was an unusually large at
tendance and everything passed of in the
most satisfactory manner. The evening
was cool and delightful. The house was
beautifully lighted for the occasion and
everything was done by the managers of
the hotel that would enable the large COM
psny to enjoy themselves. The dancing
platform was not adapted to the cool at
mosphere of the evening and in lieu of
this, the large dining hall was brought in
to requisition. Dancing commenced at 9
o'clock and continued until midnight,
when light refreshments, consisting of cake,
sandwiches, coffee, ETC., were served. After
this appreciate intermi>sion, dancing was
resumed until late hour. The music was
perfect and the merry seekers after the
goddess Pleasure kept time to its harmony
with graceful. step and light hearts.
