HOTEL ST. LOUIS OPEN.
The Ball Last Evening Attended by a
Large Crowd.
FROM THE TWIN CITIES.
A Pretty Complete List Of the Promi-
nent People Who We're
There.

Youth and beauty, a crush OF people,
scores of lovely dresses and dress coats,
mazes of muslin and roses, charming
neglige lake suits and sashes, ices for
the ladies, cocktails for the men,
and the hop season at Hotel
st. Louis was opened gloriously.
1t was a delightfully."- busy scene
about charming Northome. The early
trains from Minneapolis brought scores
of people who either concealed ball
costumes under long ulsters and over
coats, or YEARLY lugged heavy satchels,
for one must be dressed prettily, even at
the cost of infinite trouble. And there
were many who went to great deal of
trouble and were disappointed. A
party of forty was left in st. Paul and
party of thirty-five was left in Mime
apolis because they did not know when
the train departed. 1t was essentially
a "young peoples" affair. By that
term is not meant masters and
misses, but young people in society.
And how they danced and enjoyed
themselves. There have been few
affairs at the lake which compare with
it. Besides those from the city the resi-
dents at the lake were out in
force, and long before the ball
commenced it was evident that
the crowd would be very large.
People came streaming in from the
cottages and other hotels rented, 1t
began to be problem how all the
people were to be accommodated. 1t
was quarter after nine when the doors
of the dining room were thrown open
and the march music of Ring
ct,a AnotQn th1 0npb
the hotel. The great hall
was simply but beautifully decorated
by Assistant Manager Head. Across
the lower end huge American flag
separated the refreshment room from
the dancing hall, and festoons of ever
green's hung gracefully from the chande-
liers across the room. The arrange
ments were excellent. Upon the pro-
gramme were twelve dances, and they
were of such a character as to delight
the Young dancers. Refreshments were
served from 10 until o'clock. Prof. L..
M. Sherman, of Milwaukee, was the
master OF ceremonies, and the floor
