The promenade concert at the Hyper
ion In the evening is the distinct social
event of the week, and as usual will
doubtless be very largely patronized
These promenades bring together only
those who are desira BILE social acquaint-
ances and many opportunities are Of
fered for becoming intimate with the
leading musical people of the state.
The Hyperion is by the decorators art
into a thing Of great
beauty, and the dancing space is not |
to the stage, but temporary |
platform is built over the seats of the |
orchestra thus giving ample room for !
all who desire to participate This is |
the one feature which can be enjoyed |
by those who are not distinctly musical |
and who do not, in consequence, care
to attend the other events
The floor committee, in whose charge |
The whole affair is placed is as follows: |
Walter Ruel Cowles, chairman; Ralph |
NJ. Armstrong, Nathan b. Fitch. Henry |
Z. Foote, Walter S. Garde, Frederic r.
Haight, J. C. Kmball, William F., Nor
gan, ir., Frank L. Phillips, Keith |
Spauldng, and Roger w. futile.
