sure to the coming of This event. regarding
it as prelude to the festive Christmas holi-
days All needful preparations had been
made and large number ofinvitations issued
by our committee. AT an early hour iudg-
ing from the number Of escorts and the
many voices of the fair sex, we were sure Of
large attendance. At ten O'clock ''Wrber''
arrived and from then until morn. with the
exception OF short intermission for supper,
the dance was continuous. Had we ap-
pointed special committee to select the
bellies OF our cities, we are convinced that
they could not have chosen any assembage
OF ladies more beautiful in person and Els.
clnatlng in manners than were those who
attended our hop. We are unable to do
justice to the many present, and indeed to
determine which of four ought Justly to be
termed the belle of the season. Any of these
tour would beautify and adorn the most
luminous ball rooms of our large cities.
First came the lovely and attractive Miss
Mollle Blackwell, dressed in cardinal and
black silk Miss Emma Horner, handsome
~ attlred in pink satin and Spanish lace;
MISS Lucy Chiffon, in black silk and laces
MISS Belle Seawell, cream colored nuns veil

Smith in cardinal cashmere Miss Ida Pol

lighttul strains Of "Wcbern and the dignity
