given In the city. An entire absence OF for
mality made the evening one OF great delight
Seattle should indeed be grateful to those VINO
so successfully managed the affair. The Glee

of Tacoma and Seattle together in a social way.

the joys Of the summer will be materially
heightened. Tho pleasure which the happy
faces of the Tacomans expressed must have In
deed proved gratifying to the local entertainers.
Tue guests OF the occasion did Seattle the honor
of saying that the affair was in every way de-
lightful Mrs. story's musicale on Monday
evening was another success OF the week. The
hostess had a splendid programme, and the
guests proved congcnial and thoroughly enjoyed
the music and dainty refreshments. How
quickly tha heart OF Seattle is touched was evil

tsge; the quartette consisting of Miss Rosin, Mr..
GTggs. Mr.. Manning and Mr.. Joy was clever,
while the BsnJo and Guitar club was as charm
ing as could be. The Gne club not only sang,
but also acted It's comicai numbers. and OF these
the funniest was the song OF "the grass
hopper who sat upon sweet-potato
vine" The endless variations through
which the simple theme was carried were
productive of considerable merrimeut.
Miss Rosin, member of the quartette, has
