THE DINNER DANCE.

THE DINNER DANCE. Thirteen Dinners Followed by a
 Ball at Warner Hall-A Small Hut |
 Smart Afair-A Number of Those |
 Present.
 Few Haven noted alike for its culture, refinement and society, as for the tntelli- gence and education of it's people, while 1t has not it's '400" like New York, nor ssdistriot" like Philadelphia, still here, as elsewhere, society Is more or less exclu- sive. So we are safe in saying that last evening was 8 season of festivity for some of the best and most exclusive society in the city, including especially the younger contingent of unmarried people with their hostesges The number of those invited was only about 150, which is of course very small number, looking at society as a whole.
 At7 o'clock in the evening the thirteen dinners took place at the houses of the following.ladies: Mrs. Henry Hotohkiss, Mrs. Godfrey Dunscombe, Mrs. John 8. Beach, Mrs. Timothy Dwight. Mrs. E. Hayes Trowbridge, Mrs. Alfred Rockwell, Mrs. Dr. Chapman, Mrs. H. Grant Thomp- ! Macrae Ingersoll, jr., Mrs. E. G. Stod- dard, Mrs. John Mansfield, Mrs. George Farnam. At each dinner there were from ten to twelve guests. The decorations 1 were principally pink and yellow, which now seem to be the prevailing co1ors. Many of the hostesses had caterers from New York city.
 At about g o'clock all the guests at the different dinners proceeded to Warner | &ho o{ gentlemen took place. The hall was very l prettily decorated with imported southern emilax and palmettos by Champion. The eouth end of the hall was fitted up with elegant plush furniture as drawing room or salon for those who were not dancing. The Philharmonic orchestra, Frank Fichtl leader, was at the north end of the hall. The restaurant down stairs was utilized for supper, this being the first time that it has been used for this purpose.
 The ladies who received were: Mrs. Henry L. Hotchkiss, Mrs. George Farnam, Mrs. Chapman, Mrs. Macrae Ingersol1, jr.
 A pink light was thrown over the ball room, making it scene of fairy loveliness and beauty. The costumes were the most elegant that have been seen here this sea son, nearly every lady seeming to have taken special pains to bedeck herself with taste and elegance. Several costumes of ! noticed At supper the guests were seated at small tables, placed around the cafe, each table being lit with individual can delabra, with shades of fancy colors and presenting very pretty appearance. In a word it was very small and smart affair,
 and will be remembered az one of the
