xnroDooHx,s SECOND NIGHT.


 The Picturesque Interior of she Are 0ypsy Dancers.
 No one who witnessed the interior of the armory last evening could doubt for ore mos ment of the complete and unequivocal suc- cess and popularity of the Grsys' Xsnodochy.
 The attendance was large upon the opening night, snowy and unpleasant as it was, but last evenings attendance was at least three times larger. The galleries, to which small admittance fee is charged, were densely thronged with guests, who were mostly la- dies. Some were even standing at the rear after the seats had been filled.
 The throngs which moved about among the many gaily decked booths were composed of representatives from every class of New Haven's society. Probably two-thirds of the large number present were those of the fair sex. They found something to interest them upon every hand. The flower booths, the fancy article booth, the huge lemon booth which stands in the center of the armory floor and the pretty booth which was pre- sided over by Mrs. Max Adler, Mrs. Sonnen- berg and the flock of two dozen Tyrolean dance girls were probably among the most pOpulUk pl6Co6s 4uo lau1oo III CuhkHo Ok thO booths were, in almost every instance, the same as those of the night before. Their names were printed In full in yesterdays COURIER.
 The musical part of last nights entertain. ment was exceptionally fine. The air was redolent with the strains which foated out of the faring ends of the musicians brass horns or were scraped into existence from the vibrating strings of the orchestra.
 The annarin kandant,a head0uartera diract- ly across the hall from the musicians ball. cony, were crowded all through the evening by host of matrons and their pretty charges.
 The dance of the evening was that of the Hungarian gypsies. The crowds about the floor made 1t almost impossible to secure the galleries were filled to overhowing, the throngs below seemed to almost fill the en- tire floor.
 The dancers, who were arrayed in brightly colored, loose fitting gypsy costumes, their faces tinctured with any amount of rouge, powder and the like, formed a very picturesque spectacle as they ran in groups into the center of the hollow square which had been formed with the utmost diff. culty in the middle of the floor. They were: Miss Julia Gibbons, Miss Hattie Lum. Miss Lottie Lum, the Misses Foote, Miss Fowler, Miss Jerome, Miss Coburn, Miss Carrie Hartman, Miss Emma Chatterton, Miss An- nie True. Miss Adele Van Name. The gen- tlemen were Messrs. w. H. Butler, Yale go s., w. Lum, Fred Norman, Shearman, Corn wall, Pringle, Dckerman, Edward Foote, Sherman Foote, Edward Munson, J. English, | B. Rowland.
 They went through the fanciful measures of their curious dance with even more adept- ness than upon the occasion of their appear ance in the National Dances. One of the fea. | lures which was conspicuous by its absence, however, was the preliminary solo dance of the leader, Miss Mamie Crone. This was omitted for various reasons. Prof. Marwig atoned for it as best he could by introducing several new features in the picturesque groupings which occur at frequent intervals through the dance. The patronesses were Mrs. A. Heaton Robertson, Mrs. Lynde Har- rison and Mrs. O. S. Mersick.
