AKRON'S COLORED SOCIETY
Made Merry at Annual Ball
Given by the De Trop Club.

Once year the irresistible sorcery
of that fascinating muse, Terpsichore
develops the conviviality Of Akrons
colored elite to such proportions that
no ordinary outlet will suffice.
1t is during this condition of affairs,
that the De Trop club comes forward,
and gives its annual ball. the celebra-
tion of which gives opportunity for
qualification of the most fastidious
taste. Chivalry, beauty, brllance of
costume, elegance of appointment and
versatility of program vie with one
another in each special phase of the
occasion, and ultimately solidify in
one glorious triumph. AS the time
draws near for the giving of this an
nual ball, it becomes the absorbing
topic of conversation. Not alone is
the realization Of this social function
fondly anticipated by the colored So
ciety folk, but their Caucasian breth-
rem also share with enthusiasm the
expectancy preceding the ball.
Thus plainly and modestly introduced
to the conditions forerunning and at.
tendant upon the elimination of this
amenity, the reader is now doubtless
ready to be Informed that the De Trop
clubs annual ball for 1901 was given
at Twentieth Century hall, Monday
evening, from to IL.
1t was purely an invitation affair,
so far as the active participants were
concerned. Two hundred and fifty in-
vitations We're issued, and not less than
100 couples responded. The invita-
tions stated that participants would
be required to appear i'm full dress, and
this admonition was faithfully observ-
ed. The ball room presented tremu-
lous, scene of brilliance and gayety.
Prof. Sickle said to a Democrat re-
porter that some of the costumes worn
by the women had never been sur.
passed in Twentieth Century Hail.
Low neck gowns prevailed and gloves
corresponding reached to the elbows
While the gowns were of different col
ors, all We're neatly and tastily made
Quite a few had long trains but their
wearers managed them gracefully dur,
ing the dance. The gentlemen all wore
full dress suits, patent leather shoes
white kid gloves and some wore white
vests.
Dancing was the principal amuse
ment music being furnished by Prof
Stickle's orchestra.
Tickets We're sold to participants fol
ted for % cents. Among the specta
tors in the gallery, We're some of Ak

ron's most influential and fashionable
people. Their presence was gratifying
to the colored folks, and they derived
much enjoyment from being there. 1t
is estimated that there were 200 spec
tators.
Many of those invited to the ball
were driven to the scene of festivity
and also taken home, in carriages Dur,

To Make Farmers Of Indians.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Governor
Murphy. OF Arizona. advocates the
sale and settlement of the large In.
dian reservations within the territory,
with the possible exception OF the
Navajo reservation in northwestern
Arizona. and the government CON
struction of reservoirs for water stor-
age for irrigation in suitable localities.
with canals leading 20 lands allotted
the Indians. The governor says the
latter action, in which Indian labor
could be largely utilized. would help
70 make farmers of the Indians. and
that further maintenance Of the tribal
relations as now conducted and the
retention of reservation agencies
around which the Indians cluster and
live in idleness on government rations
