An Artistic Performance.

1t was practically an all-star cast

play itself was not of character TO
please a large audience, but from an
artistic and dramatic standpoint the
acting was as good as has been seen in
this city for a long time. The leading
role sustained by Miss Gallatin gives
a wide range to her wonderful dramatic
power, but she was fully equal to the
difficult task and demonstrated that in
this part, at least, she is q wonderful
actress. The character of Mrs. Al

also an artistic piece of work, and Past
Manders" by Mr.. Davenport and Jacob
Engstrand" by John Ravold were so well
played that the entire performance was
a finished piece of work that could not
help but appeal to the lovers of real
dramatic art. Even the character of the

ably done by Rose Curry and, while
there were only five people in the entire

sued and fully half that number OF cou-
Piles were present, l75 of them partici-
pating in the grand march at 9 o'clock
1t was led by DIR. w. II. Hare and Miss
Bcrde Moore The decorations were the
most elaborate ever attempted in the
city in a public hall and the armory
was transformed by them. Several tons
of evergreens were used on the side walls
fully drapcd everywhere, the windows
were draped in royal purple and white,
the coiors of the order, the entire ar
rangement producing a most harmonious
effect. Three bowers of evcrgreens were
also constructed in the hall, one for
the musicians stand, one for the big
bowl of punch and another for lighter
refreshments. consisting of lemonade,
candies and waters. \ screen of ever
greens was also constructed in front of
the entrance to the hall, where the re-
ception committee was stationed. 1t
was composed of DR.. w. II. Hare, Geo.

ing the guests they encountered the floor

of this committee were Edward Whit
son, Miles Cannon, F. X. Hiscock, Ronald

When the guests passed the music
stand for the first time in the grand
march, each one was presented with n
bouquet of carnations, hundreds of
which had been provided for the occa-
sion, and the sweet odor OF the flowers,
the brilliant colored lights in every part
of the hall, the lovely and handsomely
gowned women, all made up Il scene that
will not soon be forgotten in social cir
cles in North Yakima. The Elks spared
no pains to royalty entertain their
guests, and right well they performed
the service. In one corner of the hall
refreshment tables were arranged. where
the guests were seated and served with
ice cream and waters during the even
ing. Frank Nagler had charge Of the
music which was pronounced the best
ever furnished for a ball i'll the city.
His assistants were Mcssrs. Wright, Mcr-
win and Carey and Mrs. Reed. The
dancing continued until past midnight,
watched by Il large company seated at
the sides and one end of the armory of
guests who did not dance. but attended
to pay their respects to the popular or
der of Elks and witness the brilliant
event, 1t was pronounced success i'll
every respect and too much credit can
not be given the committee that had
charge of the arrangements.
Among the Elks present from other
cities were G.. V. Warner and Rodney
Farmer of Ellensburg, accompanied by
their ladies, and Exalted Ruler Bates of
the Tacoma lodge. DR.. Pallister and sis
ter and Mr.. Hanson of Sunnyside were
also among the visitors.
The flowers were furnished by the
