GIRLS BuTTINsKl DANCE

The dance given Monday night by
the girls to the young gentlemen of
the city was the crowning event of the
gladdest, merriest social season in
deed, one of the happiest events ever
given in Ocala.
The dance was given at Yonge's
hall, which was attractively decorat-
ed, and the dreamy, intoxicating mu-
lsic was furnished by Miss Myrtle
Whitfield.
| The principal feature of this affair
was its informality. The girls wore
white shirtwaist suits and red ties,
and the young gentlemen were most
charming in their everyday suits Z
1t was a break dance which itself
suggests informality.
The girls took the escort part per-
fectly, going in carriages or automo-
biles for their partners, and most of
them sent to their partners the pre-
vious afternoon flowers, gaudy, gaily
rich in bcssoning color, and the
young men cayried these bouquets
most gracefully.
The programs were cleverly arrang-
ed, and read something like this:
Waltz: Meet Me, Love at the o. X.
Grocery.
Two Step: Under the Yum Yum
Tree.
Hugger's Hollow Waltz.
Oyster Wiggle (for GUY.
Waltz, America, ESPECIALLY for
Count Meffert.)
Two Step: Daniel Webster's Going
to Tampa (for Osco).
Waltz: When Your Golden Side
burns Have Turned to Silver Gray
David Williams)
Intermission
Fried chicken, served only to the
good-looking men.
Waltz, Debutante Waltz (for Uncle
buck.)
Waltz Ne Around Again. Willie
(Taylor.)
Frank Harris Special Waltz.
There were number of other mu-
.sical hits. and all through the even
ing this clever little program created
mirth and merriment.
1t is told by some of the young men
that they eagerly waited to be served
fried chicken
The only visiting gentleman was
Mr. Joe Kemble of Georgia, and he
was showered with every attention
by the thoughtful hostesses.
The visiting girls at this ball were
Misses Mae and Ella Camp of Virgin
la, Misses Flossie and Matte Cad
Gardner of Texas, Miss Obie McKen-
zie of Montezuma, Ca, Miss Bessie
Smith of Atlanta, Ca, Miss Andrea of
New York and Miss Muncaster of

A BREACH OF PROMISE CASE
Prominent Citizen Charged With
Trifling With a Widows

For some time, it is alleged, one of
our prominent citizens has paid more
or less attention to a young and beau
tiful widow of this town, forgetting.
or at least, not needing the advice of
the immortal Mr.. Weller to his son,
Samuel, to beware of the vidders."
He now claims that he was not se-
rious in his attentions and that he
was not attached to her, but however
that may have been the widow be-
came attached to him, and as he
seems to have lost interest in the
matter she has attached his property,
which is a form of attachment that
he does not enjoy.
The result is, that he finds himself
the defendant in first class breach of
promise case, and his questionable at
titude toward the widow will be given
an airing in the near future.
The parties in the case are so prom
ihent that it is feared no court room
will hold the vast crowd desirous of
attending the trial, so it will be held
in the Temple theater on Monday
evening, Harch goth, under the aus
pices of the Auxiliary Board of Wo-
men Managers to the Marion County
Hospital Association, for whose bene-
fit the proceeds will be devoted.
In other words, it will be mock
court trial, and it promises to be one
of the most enjoyable affairs of many
years, as large number of our lead
ing people will participate in the pro-
ceedings.
The committee having the trial in
charge have engaged Col. A. v. New
ton, the we'll known lawyer-lecturer
of Worcester, Mass, to attend to the
details and personally conduct the en-
tertainment
Col. Newton has had remarkable
success in conducting similar enter
tainments and without doubt the
breach of promise trial will be here,
as elsewhere, an event long to be re
membered with pleasure.
