could be imagined than the decorations
that made bower of the great bare hall.
The windows were draped with vivid scar
let, and circling the entire room were
branches of wild laurel and smilaX that
veiled the ceiling and walls. Sheayes of
palm foliage were covered over each cur
tain, and suspended on the wall between
the windows were huge green wreaths
twined with red satin ribbon. The great
chandeliers were hooded with red, and the
clustered lights in the wall brackets were
veiled with the same tint, giving to the
whole room a glow OF ruby color. The
stage and gallery were draped with red.
and at each end of the platform were
clumps of tall graceful palms
The favors, which were as dainty and odd
as those of last year. included corsage
bouquets of red and white roses, which
were banked in colossal pyramids on either
side of the steps. Tinsel decorations, gay
with scarlet blossoms and tinkling with
tiny bells, were also provided for the ladies,
while gilt pipes and chimes of tiny bells
were among the pretty cOncets awarded
to their partners. The cotillion was led
by Mr.. George Howard.
