One of the grandest social

select social organizations of this
city. The affair was given In the
handsome New Auditorium, and
with the beauty of the building
itself, an elaborate decorations,
the hundreds of colored lights and
the the gorgeously gowned ladies,
the scene was one of beauty never
unsurpassed In the city before.
The guests began to arrive shortly
before nine O'Clock and from that
hour until 10 an informal reception
was held, that the visitors might
meet every one before the programs
were given out After this dancing
began In earnest and twelve
numbers on the program were
danced through before midnight,
when the guests were invited
into the banquet hall on the
lower floor. DR.. James Stathers
and Chas. Grler was the committee
In charge of this, and special
caterer served an elegant luncheon.
It was early morning when the

CAPTAIN PINE WILL ASK
TO BE LET OUT ON BAIL

to let the Captain out on
bail. The offenses are balla-
bic and If the continuance
Is granted he will be let out on
bail, provided he can find some one
who will 60 on his bond. Its pos
sible the Judge will grant both of
his requests. If he is forced into
trial at this time we believe he will
confess Under these indictments
he can be sent to the penitentiary
for thirty years.
The Court today has not tran
sacted much business. The Judge
Is attending to the criminal business
and listening to arguments In chan
cery causes and Is transacting all
the business that comes before hin.

Some time ago, The Review
broached the project of the proper
celebration of Arbor Day. The
idea was at once popular and great
progress was soon made toward
such a celebration as the old town
had seldom seen. Had 1t not been
for the unfortunate condition OF
city matters, precipitated just at
the time that the altor dayidea
was assuming shape, there would
have been intense and general
local interest In the matter from
the first. However, the general
plan has been adhe red to; the sew
eral committees have worked faith
fully and in harmony; and every
thing Is now In readiness for the
planting of trees around the City
Building tomorrow afternoon.
| Considerable discussion has teer
had concerning the time for the
exercises. The fact that there was
circus In town the appointed day
caused some disposition 10 have the
celebration In the fore noon, with
half holiday of the schools follow
Ing. This met with some reason
able opposition, and finally adjusted
itself so as to meet the conditions
to the satisfactions of all. The
different schools will move from
the high school building to the City
Building shortly after one O'Clock.
The program will be Immediately
com henced, and all will be over In
plenty of time for every one so de-
string to take In the matinee al
the river circus.
Two bands are expected to be In
attendance the city band, under the
management of Mr.. Gee. F. Bell,
and the band belonging to New.
mans river show. These two
musical organizations will make
music enough tor all. Were there
any other bands In this neck-o
woods at the time, we would have
them too, but the two mentioned
will make the day appear like a
carnival.
The trees have been secured from
Mr.. N. Salisbury, and will be here
bright and early tomorrow morn
ing, and the holes for their recep-
ton will be dug. The trees will
be planted by the high school boys.
The address by DR.. Corbly
promises to one the most pleasing
features of the day. DR.. Corbly Is

making the audience laugh. They gig
gled, smiled and roared, not so much
by reason of the charm of the dishes,
or on account of the fascinating way
they were served, but simply because
things were kept moving and between
lively band, few catchy choruses,
and the stars absurd antics, the au-
dience was made to forget themselves
and just enjoy the mess served. The
upper floors of the theater were jam
