appearance of the most pleasing charac-
ter. The buildings and shrubbery were
gaily decorated with the many bright
lights, that caused the fresh green
leaves to take on a deeper hue. These
beautiful surroundings assisted to bring
out to a great advantage the attire of
about -four hundred people, who listen
ed to music produced by the Grand
Army band OF Canton, Ohio. This was
their first appearance here this season.
As the soft strains invaded almost every
nook, it caused all Of those fortunate
enough to be present to decide without
any hesitation that from a musical
standpoint the concert was a rare treat.
Prof. George w. Delorugge cannot be
praised too highly for the judgment dis
played in the arrangement and carry
ing out of the evenings programme.
1t was a social event long to be re-
membered 10y the many leaders of
Wheeling society who were present. At
1890 o'clock the concert feature was
finished, and at IL o'clock the floor was
crowded with the gay dancers, and SO
continued until about / o'clock this
morning. The programme comprised
twelve dances. The following were the
pa~tronesses: Mesdames Oliver Thomp-
son Rhodes, Charles Howard Simpson,
B. Walker Peterson, Hullihen Quarter,
W. w. Gilchrist, Thomas Chalmers
Moffatt. Julius Pollock, Margaret Dali
zell. William stifel, W. w. Arnett.
The music seemed to serve as an
inspiration to the dancers, and the cool
weather added zest to their enjoyment,
so that the affair, all in all, was one of
the most delightful Of the season.
