Two Novel Features at an Entertain
ment for the Benefit or st. Johns.
Until yesterday afternoon DOLLS
Carnivar' was a thing unknown to the
Savannah public. The carnival was held
in st. Johns Parish Hall, and the little
folks were there in numbers, despite the
weeping sky. Dozens Of blue-eyed and
fiaxen-haired dolls were there too, but
they only looked to be having a good time,
while the Young folks really were merry.
The dolls were on three tables. Those
on the first table seemed to be having a
picnic. They were scattered through
pine grove; several were apparently play
ing oroquet while others were swinging
or walking around and looking on. The
tableaux on the next table represented a
doll wedding, and a bIushing bride and
Stylish groom stood all the evening under
a floral bell in the presence of
score OF doll friends. The next table
represented the doll family asleep. A
couple Of dozen dollies slumbered quietly
in as many cots and cradles, all presided
over by dark-hued nurse. The carnival
was a pretty feature, and pleased the
pchildren immensely.
at night charming musical entertain
ment was given, ending with "Nurse
Maids Drill" The first number was a
piano duet, very well given by Misses
Ward and Stone. Next came a Quartette
Mrs. l.. Haynes, Mrs. Ward, Mr.. Ward
and Mr.. Walker, who were warmly
applauded. Miss Pelot recited the
Maniac7 quite pleasincly. Mrs. J..
Haynes sang solo, "Of Thee l Fondly
Dream" excellentlv, and responded to
the encore with WELCOME Pretty Prim-
rose" a sweet little ballad. Miss Jennie
Ward followed with pretty piano solo
from "La SOmnambuia.v "Santa Claus
and the Children" was touchingly re.
cited by Miss Cadie stone. The next
number was "Les Rameaux," very nicely
given by Mr.. g. W. King, who was also
encored, and responded with warrior
BOld.0
LULLABY" another solo by Mrs. Haines,
evoked loud applause, and she gave very
sweetly "DOwn the Swallowed Lane"
The musical part Of the programme closed
with a number by the quartette. Mrs.
Haynes and Mrs. Ward, and Mesers.
Ward and Walker.
The accompanies were Mrs. L. y.
Burke and Mr.. Steward.

AT PURIM'S BALL MASQUE
PRINCE AND CLOWN DANCE
MERRILY AT THE BIG BALL.

brilliant Carnival Scenes In the Susroh'
Arsenal Last Nfght-The Youths His
tOrlcal Socisty's Annual Pur1m Ball a
Great Success-Rfch Costumes Worn
by Gallant Men and Handsome Women
some of the People who Were There.
Prince Carnival reigned in all his glory
mt the Guards new arsenal last night.
The annual Purim masquerade ball Of the
Youths Historical Society is an event
that Hebrew society people never miss,
rain or shine. 1t began raining early last
night, and by 10 O'Clock it poured.
The carriages began to arrive shortly
after o'clock and deposited their oocu-
pants on the sidewalk opposite the Presl-
dent street entrance. The wind played
merry pranks with the maskers costumes
and hirted with the ladies' Rausy skirts
with an airy freedom. Gentlemen in
dress coats lost their hats and tenn
pers. Umbrellas wouldn't open
until coaxed, and bareheaded
knights and pages and ladies fair
were landed breathiess In the Vesti-
bule, Despite these drawbacks the people
kept pouring in. Once inside the build
ing the arrangements we're ample ana
complete The dressing rooms are on the
second floor, and ushers stood at
che head of the stairs to direct the guests
as they arrived.
At the entrance to the ballroom were
the members of the Reception COMMITTEE
distinguished by little badges on their
coat lapels.
A BRILLIANT SCENE.
Inside the scene was brilliant in the
extreme. There was no money spent for
{ decorations, the hall itself, while it is sus-
csptible of the most elaborate decoration,
requires nothing to set of its aTchiteetu-
raj beauty. The room was a babel OF
sounds and a multitude Of costumes
gorgeous, quaint, and grotesque. There
were pages and knights with ladies fair
dressed in bright and costly garments.
There were clowns and Uncle Sans and
Goddesses OF Liberty and jockeys fresh
from the race track. The omnlpresent
Drgan-grinder was there. Every nation
atty and race was represented, and every
class and grade OF society. Almost with
out exception the costumes were snowy,
without an attempt TO be ridiculous. A
majority of the masks were PLAIN black
and white half faces. The costumes were
altogether the most elaborate and the
least Objectionable ever seen at any of the
previous Purlm balls given in the city.
The grand march was started at $3.50
O'Clock, with upwards of 100 couples. 1t
was led by Mr.. II. NJ. Boley, of the His
tOrical Society, and Chairman Of the Gen.
leral Committee. Immediately after the
grand march dancing was begun.
THE ORDER OF DANCING.
The order of dances was in book form,
with the date of the ball on the front page
and the committees on the back. The
programme included twenty-five dances.
Gecks' full orchestra occupied one corner
Of the room under the gallery. The Union
eOrnet band occupied the opposite corner
and played the marches and promenade
music. The dancing numbers were in the
following order;

From the Musical Courier, March 8, 1856
In order to make ourselves fully under

We never had any direct or Indirect
