the celebration was observed, and
the visitors departed with a feeling
of regret that Admission days Of the
same kind do not occur every year. The
chief OBJECT of the visitors last night was to
secure souvenir cards, and thousands were
exchanged by members of the various par
lors.
The principal reception of the night was
held at Union-square Hall, where National
Parlor entertained visitors. No tickets
were required and all members Of the
Native Sons and Daughters were well
coined. Captain Charles l.. Tilden OF the
Nationals, the Grand Marshal Of the parade
and Past President Of National Parlor,
was the lion of the night, each guest COM
plimenting him on the magnificent manner
in which he handled one Of the largest
parades which has ever taken place in San
Francisco.
The evening at Union-squace Hall was
principally spent in dancing, Noah Brandt
leading his select orchestra. Many OF the
ladies who visited were in full evening
dress. As the evening wore on the smaller
hall adjoining the main one had to be thrown
open in order to accommodate the large
number of visitors. Owing to the efficient
management of the Floor Committee no
crush or inconvenience occurred while the
visitors were dancing. The committee
which had charge of the evening entertain
ment were Charles l.. Tilden, Samuel w.
Gilman and Henry Koch.
Stanford Parlor also gave reception and
dance at its headquarters at Saratoga Hall,
but only those who had invitations were
admitted Many Native Sons called, think
ing that open house was being kept but
they went away disappointed. There was
too large number of visitors to indulge
much in dancing, and the evening was prin-
cipally occupied in listening to concert
music furnished by Blum's Band. and IN
promenading through the finely decorated
halls.
Refreshments were served with liberal
hand, and most of the visitors were IN full
dress, the parlor striving to make the affair
one of the most select of the celebration.
