Y 4 N made II such a
social success, but everything seemed
TO have been arranged so perfectly that
there were none of the annOyanceS con-
nected with the vast society event that
often accompany leVeeS OF such magnl-
tude. Although every precaution had
been taken that there should be no hitch
in the arrangements, the management
awaited the evening when the curtain
was to rise upon the theater OF action
action with no little trepidation. But,
when the evening had worn we'll on
toward the hour of II, and ev-
erythipg found to be working like a
charm, the committee threw care
to the winds, and went in and enjoyed
itself also. 1t was remarked that no
small amount of credit for the evenings
entertainment was due to the presence
of Danz's orchestra, and the hour of
music before the dance was as much en-
loved as the ball itself. The dresses of
the ladies were a revelation In the
modiStes' art, every shade of rich
fabrics being shown in rich prOfuSion
and every variety of cut. There were
pretty faces also, and view from the
gallery presented sight worthy to vie
with the views seen at the mammoth
levees of the East. 1t is safe to say that
ii will be some time before Minneapolis
will again see such large ball carried
out with such complete success. 1t is
probable that a mammoth reception will
be rendered by the different Masonic
bodies in the new building, at which
time all of the elegant lodge rooms will
be opened to the guests. Although the
date is not yet set, it is understood that
the event will occur early in June.
Hereafter the Masonic Temple will be
the mecca toward which all large social
clubs will cast their eyes. the large drill
hall forming such an elegant place in
which to hold balls and receptions.
Almost nightly the sounds of music may
be heard high overhead issuing from the
eighth floor of the massive building,
while tripping feet accompany in the
maZes of the dance. Friday evening
the Flambeau club gave its fourth re-
ception and military ball, the event
drawing out some 500 of society's best.
The regalia of the members of the club
added to the brilliancy of the effect,
aided by the multiplicity of lights, and
the affair was probably only second to
the great ball of the Templars in mag
nltiCence.
