o'clock, an eager crowd besieged every
entrance, and lines of carriages stretch
ed into the surrounding streets and ave-
nues. Platoons of police officers,
mounted and unmounted, guarded the
outer entrances. keeping back the rush
of curious spectators aud bringing order
out of the tsngle OF carriages. Through
the long arched entrances. hung with
bunting and vince, passed the merry,

began to take on life and animation.

rive until $50 o'clo OK, and the early
corners busted themselves 10 viewing
the exquisite beauties OF the scene. The
United States Marine Band and Haley's
orchestra of over q hundred pieces
were stationed at the end of the hall,
and an hour before the arrival OF the
presidential party played patriotic
airs. 1t was scene of dazzling splen-
dor and grandeur OF richness, beauty
and elegance, and nothing so gorgeous
was ever before accomplished In Wash
ington. The grand march was pre-
vented by temporary indisposition Of
Mrs. Mckinley. She soon recovered,
however, and later held an informal re-
ception. The gorgeous toilets that
were worn was q feature OF the ball.
Twelve thousand was the limit of the
tickets. and the appearance of the bali
room indicated the presence OF that
number of people. II lie said that Mrs.
