Music Hall was the scene of very
brilliant social affair on Tuesday even
ing last. About 300 people assembled
to listen to the concert by Eastman &
Morev's orchestra of Manchester, n. H.,
after which about 40 couples formed on
the floor for the first figure. At IL
O'Clock supper was served at Webb's
Hotel and the Union House and the
tables at each of these places were literal
" covered with choice dishes and fruit.
After supper the dancing was continued
until o'clock. when the party dis
sembed. A delegation of II couples
from Newport, and four couples from st.
