The New York Mail and Express, i'm its
society column of october lith, says:
Another very large Organization is
known as the Wednesday Cotllons, in
which are numbered many Southerners.
This is the most informal and hOspitable
series of dances in New York and the
season is always opened with big after
noon reception at the Waldorf Astoria,
where the new members are afforded an
opportunity of meeting the patrOnesses
and other members OF the organization.
feature of the Wednesday Cotillons is
that everyone knows everyone else before
the first two dances are over, ana the
result is that everyone has a very good
time. The Wednesday Cojill0ns are man
aged by a board Of governors. Of which
Mr.. George II. Sullivan is the president
and nj Heth Lorton is the secretary.
The entire MANAGEMENT of the class is
i'm the hands OF the governors. and the
men who are numbered in the member
ship list really are the hosts OF the occa-
sion. and the girls who belong are not re
quired to pay dues, tho entire expense
being borne BY the men This is a fea-
ture also in which the Wednesdays diff
fer from most organizations OF a similar
character in New York. and II has proved
TO be a most successful way Of conduct
ing a dancing class The Wednesdays
have grown TO such large proportions
that the membership list is being cut 10
considerable extent The first dance Of
the season will take place At Delmonico's
on the evening OF December 5th. The
other dates arranged are January Cd and
oath. and February 18th
