House 0rchesra-Ihs Decorations
and Refreshments.

dom has Ariou Hall contained more
brilliant assemblage than that which
participated in the terpsiehorean affair
Of last night The Charity Ball has
been one Of the few great social events
Of the winter season that forms an al
most distinct chapter in the world Of
gayety.
1t has been awaited with delightful
expectancy for weeks, and many were
the preparations going on for the STAIR,
all OF which were pleasurably shown In
the climax Of last evening. Not a few
of the handsome toilets seen on the floor
were worn for the first time, and they
we're striking aud picturesque. The
young people who attended al seemed
to be on the best terms with each other
and thoroughly In sympathy with hap
DinesS of the most agreeable kind. The
beauty OF the ladies is always the fair
est, and there was a graceful, viyaeious
and pardOnabla rivalry between the
many attractive ones as TO who should
appear in the most progressing raj
ment. But they all succeeded so we'll
In satisfying eyes that love 10 dwell on
beauty that after all the scene was one
OF exquisite harmony.
The music was furnished by the full
Opera House orchestra, and during the
early evening q delightful concert was
rendered. A canopy was placed at the
entrance 10 the hall, which was espe-
cially convenient last night on account
of the storm, and for fully an hour and
a half precious freight sailed forth
from scores Of carriages. 1t was nearly
ten O'Clock before the dance was inaug-
urated, the grand march being led oy
Mr.. and Mrs. Il. Buchanan. The march
was skillsully executed, and excited
many favorable comments from the de-
lighted On-lOokerS.
The decorations were in the line OF
yellow and pink, and while perhaps
not elaborate or intricate, still they
were pretty and effective. FestoonS Of
yellow extended from the four corners
of the ball TO the centre chandelier, and
the various doors were artistically
draped. The decorations were furn-
ished by Laupp. An order OF eigh-
teen dances were discussed,
and at intermission banquet
was served in the dining hall by Ziegen-
fielder. Mr.. y. Buchanan was Master OF
Ceremonies, and the floor committee
consisted OF Messrs. Lou SwRbacker,
