the decoration OF the ballroom, which were

WIN Win AilEpu5h NhaIa-
rippled wide red and white ribbons, tied
in iove-knot rosettes. Twinkling through
the foliage were myriads OF tiny white and
red electric lights, which also garlanded
the wall like chains Of living jewels. The
mirrors that panel the great room were
half yeiled with pyramids of red and white
azaleas, caught artistically with huge
hoy of .t,l1r rif Ia Io1
that adorned the walls was filled with
Easter lilies rising from banks CT maiden
hair fern. The only touch of contrasting
color was furnished by the ribbon that
garlanded the musicians gallery, and
which was OF a delicate lavender shade.
Branching out frcm the centre of the gall
lery were the limbs of i grey and wealth
orbeaten oak. covered with Florida moss
and hundreds CT pale mauve orchids. a
wall of palm trees stood like sentinels on
either side of the gallery, and the inches
of the windows were small jungles of
tropical plants and fern. The music of
the evening was furnished by the Marine
Band
The reception parlors were also elab
orately decorated with palms ribbons and
flowers. American Beauty roses and huge
bowknots and streaners of tie same color
ornamented the first, and in the second
were orchids and ribbons of lavender. Sup
per was served after midnight.

details, and the guests present could af-
ford TO jest over the great blizzard of last
year. which utterly ruined the Assembly
of 1899.
