A SOCIAL. SUCCESS.

TN Tuesday evening, the Oheroke'
Club gave one of their charming part
les. We had heard 50 much of then
| that being anxious to get there We
started at early candle light a,
they say in the country and found the
CITY Hall thoroughly swept and poi
ished aud decorated in the coiors OF
the Club 1--WE presumed pale blue and
burned orange. Graceful drapery OF
softly hanging fabrics from center to
circumference on the ceiling and Ges-
tooned over windows and doors. but
not soul in sight We wandered
forth made some calls 'braced up ON
cup of coffee and returned at the
mistic hour of nine wlen old people
usually go to sleep and young people
begin to dance We were so cordial y
welcomed that we were perfectly Will
ing TO sit up all night in such chann-
ing company. A cotillion. accord ing
to the present acceptatiOn of the term
is very graceful mode of dancing,
much like the German without any
of its intricate features Dir. Henry
King and his sweet aud lovely young
wife lead the grand march which con
tanned many new movements. The
entire Cotillion was given in graceful
turns and twists and Kaleidoscope in
exquisite changing colors. The ladies
were in every truth rose bud gar
den of girls most of them being
very young debutant flowers just be
ginning TO unfold their petals TO the
sun tor perhaps son would do better. J
Among the chaperons we noticed Mr.
and Mrs. Alonzo Hall, Mrs. Sharp and
Miss Pike. Miss Julia and Miss Al
fonsine Decuir did not dance but that
was no doubt because from their seats
the beautiful spectacle was more en-
ioyable than when moving in its
figures Mrs Grant and Mr. and
Mrs. Pomeroy were also there
