SENATE SOCIAL.
Carson society is all in a f1utter over the
party to be given by the Senate. 1t is not
going to be strictly a legislative party, in
asmuch as the Assembly does NOT act with
the Upper House in the matter. In order
to get it up, it is alleged that $40 for each
member would be required assessment,
whereat it is further alleged that there
was so much kicking in the Lower House
that the Senators made up their minds to
give the party on their own hook and foot
the bill by themselves. 1t will cost them
$25 each. Each Senator has the privilege
Of inviting only three gentlemen and
ladies, so you see there will be no great
crowd in attendance, which aspect will be
smoothed over by the elegance of the
affair. There is already much talk about
the reunion among the society folk Of the
Capital, as many Of the party goers among
them will have to be left out in the cold on
the night Of the grand elbow out" in pros
peet.
