Dublin, March 7.-tCopyright, 1908. 1.-The
ball in St. Patrick's Hail. at the viceregal
Castle in Dublin. on Wednesday revived the
glories of the Guadrille and furnished a
picture of beautiful women, magnificent
dresses and brilliant jewels.
The first quadrille vas of ladies of the
French court" all in Louis XVI costume.
Lady Dudley and General Sir Hugh Nc
Calmont were the first couple. Lady Dud-
leys dress of white satin was designed
from celebrated painting by Vatican.
She wore wonderful jewels. Lady Hunting
ton and Sir William Knox were the second
couple. Lady Iveagh was blazing with
jewels. Lady kilmorey as Nine. Du Barry,
in beautiful pale pink dress. was very
handsome. Lady De Grays dress was
copied from one of the family pictures Of
the Low.ner family. .....-....
officers of the Household Cavalry and In-
married adde's made second quadrille. In
this was bevy of beautiful girls. includ-
ing Lady Juliet Lowther. Lady Evelyn
Erskine. Lady Mabel Crickton and Lady
Isabel Annesey.
Lady Fingall was responsible for the
Romney quadrille. danced by officers Of the
Twenty first Lance-s and remarkable
group of pretty women in black picture
hats Among them were Lady Chesterfield,
Buchanan Miss Esther Saunderson, Miss
Ponsonby and Miss Blair.
a fifth set was organized by Lady Holm.
from pictures by Gainsborough. Some of
the prettiest women present. including Lady
Milhanks and Lady Evelyn Ward. danced
in this. All wore big picture hats on their
powdered hair.
The Earl of Dudley seems quite to hav.
captured the Irish heart. Not only is his
new yacht being built in Dublin, but he
has ordered an open boat for competition
in Dublin Bay.
The viccroy has fallen in with the vo-
taries of the Irish language by giving his
yacht an Hibernian name, Fodhla, after
one of the ancient Queens of Ireland. He
has ordered the name to be gilded on her
bow and stern and woven into the guern-
seys OF his crew in Irish characters.
The Irish language craze is very strong.
Irish concerts and plays are common. and
the public companies are asked to make the
language part of their examination schemes.
Traders have had their names emblazoned
in the ancient lettering on their tabiish-
ments, and the names Of some railway sta
tons have been painted in Gaelic Some en-
thusiasts insist upon the banks accepting
their checks when they are filed in irish.
The craze appears to have practically the
whole country in its grip. and shows no
signs of dying out.
