In SOCIETY.

This has been the gayest week OF the
season at the Hotel Arcadia. Wednes-
day evening, after the concert given at
the dinner hour by Lowinski's orches-
ira, the guests gathered in the reception
hall and on the porch to listen to some
of the musical talent in the house, and
about 9 O'Clock adjourned to the ball
room for a social hop. On Thursday
evening there was watermelon party.
All the guests, young and old, marched
down to the pavilion, where a long
table was arranged for them. Col.
Henry P. Kowalski and Mr.. Dwyer
acted as hosts and presided at either
end of the long table. The colonel
helped to carve the melons and soon
every one was busy with his own liberal
slice. Mr.. Dwyer called upon the colo
mel for speech and he gave some very
spicy remarks upon the watermelon.
Then a song was asked for and the
orchestra played Annie Rooney and
every one Joined in the chorus. Other
songs followed, interpreted with anec-
dotes and witty sayings. Mr.. Willis
Polk gave banjo solo and told some
funny stories and provoked much mer-
riment. Then the company all went to
the beach to enjoy the moonlight on the
water and Mr.. Polk gave some pleasing
banjo solos and Mrs. Dwyer gave some
fine mandolin solos.
