The Dedication Ball Last Night a
Great Success.
A great throng went to CORTLAND last
evening from this city, by boat and by
teams, TO attend the ch-talked-of ball
The new hall of J. w. Houston was
dedicated in grand style. A promenade
concert comprised portion of the festiv-
tiles, music being furnished by Fisch,
Jones IL Bebee.
The dedicatory consisted of an address
Of welcome, in which the possibilities of
CORTLAND and Sacramento County in
general were elegantly portrayed by ex-
Senator William Johnston.
\ circumstance which excited unusual
comment was that all the old settlers on
the Sacramento River were present with
their families, among them being George
II. Smith, O. r. RunyOn, j. Reynolds, l..
Green, William Berry, A. w. Stuart,
James Collins, Sol. Runyon and others
| Joe Green, Jr., acted as Floor Director
and was ably assisted by F. Z. HoIlister,

This was one of the most enjoyable
| events that ever occurred on the Sacra-
mento River, there being present 1913
| couples i'll the grand march.
| \ sumptuOus repasJ was served. and
| by standing vote OF all present Joe
! Houston was voted as one of the most
! hospitable of hosts. In the discharge of
the pleasant duties of an entertainer he
was assisted by his wife and daughter,
| Miss Hattie Houston.
The hall is 40XI00 feet and is elegantly
| decorated. Much architectural skill is
| shown, and the native woods of California
are finished in the natural color and oil
! polished The floor is an ideal in its
! creation, being laid on continuous rub
! ber springs, and furnishing that elasticity
which is so much desired by our young
! people who like to skip the light fam
! tastic.
The ball lasted nearly all night.
