the season, TO the younger set, was the
german given on Thursday evening by
Miss Rosa Sullivan. The residence of Dir.
and Mrs. John Sullivan on Harris street,
was beautifully decorated for the occasion,
the entire house being converted into a
scene of loneliness. Tall tree palms formed
an arch in the hall way, and with cushion
ed divans and rose shaded lamps made
an inviting retreat between the dances. Be
hind a screen of bamboo vines the orches-
ira was stationed and the stairway was
festooned with vines. in the double par
lors the decorations were most artistic.
Garlands Of bamboo vine in Empire style
wreathed the walls, the mantels were
banked with maiden hair fern, and, in one
room were pink carnations and La France
roses with pink candles, while in the other
the flowers were white roses and carna-
tons, and the candles crimson.
