lace, while the st-talked-of costume in
the first polka was a pink tarletan worn
over white Swiss, made like calico school
dress and without any ornamentation. 1t
was very fetching and very becoming to the
tall, slender brunette who wore it.
Another smart frock was of heavy white
duchesse satin, made with big sleeves, but
without any kind of trimming. No jewels
or flowers were worn with it. A pretty
blonde looked asEdemure as a Quakeress in
a pearl gray silk, severely plain and sim
pie, but there was a tiny band of silver
spangles around the low-cut bodice.
The members of the Governors staff
made brilliant background for the light
gowns worn by the ladies who accom-
panied them. These ladies seemed to hit
upon white as the proper thing to wear,
and it was on them that most eyes turned
when looking for pretty white gowns.
Flowers and aigrettes were rather plen-
tiful in the hair, and there were many
dainty adjuncts in the way of fans of rare
workmanship and value; gloves and slip
pers were of the same color as the gown,
and altogether the fair Californiette sus-
tanned the reputation which is fast becom-
ing worldwide, that of being the prettiest
and best-dressed woman in the country.
The Governors party consisted of
Governor and Mrs. James H. Budd !;
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph H. Budd, the
father and mother of the Governor;

tinctly as swagger as any other event given
this season.
There was as much of refinement and
proper decorum as the Friday Night Co
tillon Club could possibly demand, and
there was the general air of friendliness for
which Sacramento is Justly celebrated.
There IVES also touch of officialdom
which prevented snobbishness on one side
and frigid formality on the other Moth
ing but familiarity with names and faces
OF the pretty maids and matrons identified
the representatives from any particular
section of the State. The foothiIl counties
showed up with as modish dressing as
those which border on the bay.
The most notable feature of the dressing
was the absence of jewelry on any but
matrons and elderly women. In fact there
were only few brilliant displays in this
line at all.
As if in sympathy with the blue and
yellow hangings in the Assembly chamber
the majority of the dancers wore blue and
yellow frocks. 1t may have been because
it is near wild poppy time, or it may have
been desire to dress as become the
daughters of the Golden State. Certain it
is that yellow predominated. 1t is seldom
that there is such brave array of all
shades, materials and possible combine
tons of yellow as were seen on the floor.
Oddly enough there was not scarlet or
any other shade of red gown seen among
the dancers. Neither was there much
combination of different-colored bodices
with dark skirts except among the specta-
tors. The most effective gowns were those
made the most simply. Among the buds
there was nothing more effective than
Swiss muslin, trimmed with valenciennes

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 28.-There can be no
sort of doubt that this ball was much bet
ter dressed and much better danced than
any of the previous inaugural balls given
in Sacramento. Whether this was due to
the fact that Governor Budd is a young
man, man identified with the young and
enterprising element in the State, is a
question. It may be that the university
sets were more in evidence. Be that as it
may, the ball was as jolly as a club hop or
dance in private house. 1t was also dis

Being told that the eight-ycar old daughter
of Mrs. Dorety, Ontario Avenue, had been

decided 10 investigate the case and ascertain
the facts. Accordingly We visited her home
when she related the facts as follows;
