Although last week was not quite as gay
as the one proceeding, nevertheless snfd.
Gent has been in progress to keep the
many society people on the alert. Among
the attractions were the theatricals given
by the little folks, Saturday night at Mrs.
Thornton's residence. The Young Peoples
Dramatic club repeated their taking play,
Esprit OF '76." A choice circle Of friends
witnessed the performance and too much
praise can not be given to these little folks,
who without training have twice acquitted
themselves SO admirably. Following the

lovely little lady.
Miss Dollie Noyes did herself proud as
Judge Wigfall; she proved conclusively to
all her hearers that 'lovely woman needs
only the chance to show mankind legal
ability.
Master Arthur Hoytas Mr.. Wigfall, shone
with reflected splendor from the dazzling
radiance of his wife. Never before did man
SO well display his domestic character.

that visit for an indefinite period if
she turns not a deaf ear to the pie ,dings /

where the orange blossom fourisbes ever
and the rose bud never dies. while on the
outside the already tastefully arranged
grounds were rendered q hundred fold more
beautiful by the numerous Chinese lanterns
OF various shades and designs which hung
in such dazzling profusion and
in brilliancy the myriads OF stars
that sparkled in the clear cold canopy OF
To argue that everyone present enjoyed
to the fullest extent would be
of s~upererogation for it is something
that not one of them could deny. Card
