A thousand hearts beat happily; and when
Muse arose with its volnptuous swell,
| Soft eyes look d love to eyes which spake
| again,
And all went merry as a marriage bell,
| On with the dance! let joy be uncunthedi
| NO sleep till morn. when youth and beauty
meet
! To chase the fleeing hours with flying feet
Lord Byron when he wrote the above
| lines must have seen a scene similar to
| the one Witnessed last evening at the
! Lowry arcade, when the grand Harvest
| Festival ball occurred. The scene was
one which will live forever in the
memory of those present. The
bright electric lights flashed
upon the tairest of fair women,
dressed iii charming creations
OF the mofiste and Ornamented with
the gems of far off lands. For four
hours dull care was driven away, and
| the good cause of charity was assisted
| by the 500 ladies and gentlemen who
kept time in the may dance. to the Sc
ductive strains Of dreamy valse mn n
bers, played by Danzs increased
orchestra, who were hidden be-
| hind bower os ferns and
| palms. The frou frOu of the silks and
satins. the click of French heelpd shoes.
formed pleasing Compartment The
| sWaying dancers, whose jewels and
hair shimmered in the blue white of the
| electric lights. The flowers worn by
the. fair dancers perfumed the air.
and altogether the ball was
the most successful to those
who took part. But many were present
who dill not dance but looked on, some
| from choice. some from necessity. 1t is
| to he regretted that the gentlemen who
formed the floor committee permitted a
| large number of ladies to sit the whole
| evening. who should and would have
| danced had they been provided with
| partners. The ball was pnhlic
one inasmuch as tickets were sold. and
| certainly all those present should have
been allowed to participate. 1t was past
| this morning ere the last dancer left
| the ball room. and the lights were
| turned off. The Harvest Festival ball
| has come and gone. but it will be re-
membered for many long day.
