piete. The ladies and gentlemen rep
resenting the signers OF the Declara-
ton OF Independence and members of
the first congress were typical imper-|
sonages of those iliuStrious support
ers of American freedom. These also
performed the Minuet de la Ca.ur, not
the light and frivolous fantastic" OF
the rich salons of the present day, but
the grave, sedate and stately measure
OF men and women of mature intelli-
genee. The participants deserve
special mention for their perseverance
and fixed determination 10 represent
that court even in so small number.

Castiliaa to equal the display OF the
