Lake Minnetonka, assembled at the hotel
last evening.
The Great Western band of st. Paul
was in attendance. and furnished the mu-
sic for the occasion. As fast as the guests
arrived. either by train or boat, they
were greeted with enlivening strains.
The entire edifice was thrown open and
by 9 O'Clock the grand hotel was literally
swarming with beauty and fashion.
At 9 p. m. the band struck up the
Grand March and the vast assemblage
proceeded to the spscious reception room,
where they were received by j. II. Horton,
Esq. master OF ceremonies and soon, under
the management of Messrs. G.. r. Mon
fort. Charles Heiser and DR.. c. Tucker,
floor managers, they were whlrling in the
giddy maZes of the dance to the enlivening
strains of Seibert's orchestral band. The
following was the programme of the
dances:
1. Overture, introductory" Seibert's
orchestra; 2, waltz. 8, ianciers; 4, galop,
5, quadrille; 6, waltz; Z, lanciers: s;
racquet; 9, quadrille; 10, waltz; IL, Ian
ciers; II, waltz.
At IL p. m. an elegant lunch was served
in the spacious dining room. There was
room for all and enough for all. After
this intermission dancing was resumed,
and, large as the reception room is, ac-
commodating 100 couples at time, it
did not answer the purpose, and
soon the long hall and the
grand wide Office were filed
with the whirling throng, to the music of
both the band and the orchestra, and the
GLOBE reporter is not altogether certain
but some enthusiastic couples were dane
ing on the roof, as the music fioated up
through the open space from the Office
below.
