The opera house orchestra gave
| social dance Friday evening a Heffer
| Inns opera house and the large NUM-
| Der who attended the affair enjoyed
| the delights of the evening in man.
ner which spoke volumes for the en-
tertaining powers of the organiza ton
| under whose auspices the dance was
! held. The music for the dancers was
furnished by the full orchestra and
! was marked by a degree of excel
/ lence which had not been found at the
i functions of the past winter The
dance was well patronized, and from
| the time the grand march began it's
/ evolutions until the last strains OF the
| final number died away the dancers
| filled the floor in a merry throng and
sped the fleeting hours with a zest
i such as is seldom witnessed at social
affairs in this city. The organization
under whose auspices the dance was
| held furnishes music for, the theatrical
/ attractions which come here, and the
dance Friday evening was in the ma
ture of benefit at this, the close of
the theatrical season.
/ But one wedding was celebrated in
this city during the week. Hitherto
week without at least two or three
connub1al combines was a thing un-
heard of here, and it is but fair to say
that the scarcity of candidates for
matrimonial honors is compensated for
in great measure by the personnel
of the bride and groom who walked the
aisles of wedlock in this city Friday.
| They were Samuel C. Drollsbough and
| Miss Grace c. Swan, an estimable
young couple of Fridley, We're the par
ties to quiet wedding at the residence
| of Rev. L. II. Hickle of the Methodist
| church. The ceremony was performed
| on a quiet scale and in the presence
of the usual limited wedding party
| supposed to attend matrimonial alli-
ances made without display. the
groom is a prosperous young ranch
man of the Upper Yellowstone valley
and the bride is young lady whose
good looks and charming personality
| have won her host of friends in her
large circle of acquaintance in the
community in which she lives.
Monday evening social dance was
/ at Fireman's hall at which about 30
| couples participated. The music was
furnished by Books orchestra and a
splendid time was enjoyed by those
present. The function was graced by a
number of ladies in evening dress and
the conventional claw hammers of the
gentlemen were conspicuous 1t was a
swell affair and was the social sequel
to an event of like nature which was
held at the same place week ago, in
which the ladies engaged to do the hon
ors of the evening to their gentlemen
friends and act as escorts to them to
and from the function. The quarters
of the volunteer firemen afford excellent
dancing space and the polished floor is
considered a prime favorte with those
who trip the light fantastic and mingle
in the gay social whirl of the Park
county metropolis. Most of those who
attended the ball Monday evening were
some time ago members of the dancing
club and the pleasant relations of that
organization have been renewed in this
later and more formal social set.

annual celebra ton at the Lake picnic

hall in the evening was fitting finale
to the pleasant events of the day. The

cess and appropriately marks a mile
stone along the road which union la Dor
travels toward the goal of it's desire.
