DANCE At ASSEMBLY ROOMS
The Rathbone Sisters Give a Very
Successful Affair
Attendance.

One OF the most successful dances
ever given at the Assembly Rooms was
that OF last night given by Friendship
Temple No. g. Rathbone Sisters. AS
hitherto stated in the Capital. the dec.
orations were most elaborate and beau
tiful, being those used at the farewell
ball at the Naval Academy, kindly
loaned by the midshipmen
Garlands of everg1eens, cedar trees.
streamers of bunting and numerous
electric lights. made a very attractive
scene. A large crowd was in attend
anoe. Nearly all wore evening dress.
and some Of the costumes of the la
dies were very pretty. Music was
furnished by Professor Sohrcyers or.
chestra and dancing began at 8 D. m.
and continued until l a. m.
Everybody enjoyed the evening.
which was great success and which
reflects credit on the committee of ar
rangements and especially their able
chairman, Mrs. Harry O DeLeon. A
good sum was realized from tickets
sold for the ball and the efforts of the
Rathbone Sisters were not only re-
warded by success socially, but also
financially.

the House, or more pointedly, any
good legislation may be killed there
in the same manner as this was alleg-
edly by the use of money. Ii is said
that $50 was paid for every vote cast
aaginst this measure; not that every
man who voted against the bill was
paid $50, because there undoubtedly
as certain strong, honest opposition TO
it, which money did not produce, but
there always is honest opposition TO
any measure, ana that honest opposi-
tiou is and was yesterday the cloak
under which the lobby worked and
the basis upon which it built Also
it is q source of profit to this same
far seeing lobby. Every member who
W i'll vote against bill without paw.
is au obliging gentleman whose per
capita may be pocbeted by the genius
who directs the fight. In other words.
the lobby builds upon the votes IL
knows to be honestly opposed to a
measure, say twenty, and then gees
into the house, as it would into any
other market and buys enough more
votes to make majority, or better
till, deprive the other side of a major
ity. The lobby's profit, frequently, is
derived entirely from those members
tho lobby way anyhow, from one mo-
tive or another. Also, there are often
men who are too honest to sell their
votes and actually be recorded as hav-
ing opposed bill, who can be per
suaded not TO vote at all, and after a
certain number votes have been Sc
cured, an absence is quite as efficient
in the lobby's sight as q vote and is
paid for at the same rate Doubtless
hence the gentlemen in the galleries
yesterday at the 0li-call--membors
may uot vote except from their seats.
1t is to be regretted that the House
of Delegates is apparently cheap
house, and a not very able house, and a
house in which most of the ability is
on the indifferent side. Fifty dollars a
vote would seem mere pickings, even
on this bill and gentlemen should
scorn TO sell out for such paItry sums.
Further, why did the members yes
terdy rush 50 hard to beat postpone
ment. The bright minds among those
who voted yesterday against delay,
probably realized after they had Sc
cruely fastened the bill down, that
had they exetnded the slight courtesy
of postponement until Tuesday to the
bills friends, they would probably
have extended to their own. pockets
the courtesy Of an extra $50 4 vote
that was worth 500 on Thursday. it
is said, would have been worth 800
on Tuesday, with sentiment growing
as il is. Bat perhaps the gentlemen
were lard up campaign expenses and
all that, etc. A bird in the hand too,
etc. Or perhaps they regarded this
bill entirely in the light Of an unex-
pected pickings, or chicken feed.
They were willing enough to take the
fifties, perhaps, but are in a hurry 20
arrive at richer. larger things Or
perhaps all this is errstum Perhaps
they are all honest and didn't sall cut
at albany of these Perhaps they
all voted from conviction Certainly
their haste would bear that supposi-
tion cut

Success Unprecedented.

After an unprecedented record of
having served $40 suppers in three
nights, St MarY's bazar and oyster
supper closed last night with this rec
ord. On all former occasions So

again the second, and again the third
with additional numbers each night,
but there was provision for all As
good a supper (and it Was excelleut)
was served last night as on either Of
tho previous nights The ice cream
was equally well patronized and the
paddles did good business. Many
things were ralfied last night. Some

Father Hogan, gold ring Miss Agnes
