EASTMAN'S BALL
 A BIG SUCCESS
BIG WEEK END ASSEMBLY AT MONARCH OF THE GLEN
 LAST EVENING.

one Of the unmistakabIe success ses of the season" was last night s formal Assesmbly in the ball room at the Eastman hotel. The arrivals
 the past week have been unusually heavy until now the Monarch of the
 Glen is housing one of the banner
 mid-March throngs in its history. Last
 night society virtually stormed the aotel. To begin with it's own guests turned out en masse. Then, the dhic Arlington set had smart representa- tion, while the Park and the other fashionable hostelries sent over their snare of dancers. In addition the resident smart set afforded the As Isesmbly liberal patronage.
 A glance into the gayly crowded ball room while the Assembly was lat its height afforded positive proof that Hot Springs is entertaining it's share of the fashionables from New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Lou is and the other big Eastern and Northern cities. The season may have been a little late in starting. but it is now on in earnest and with the Inaugural in Washington over and the tourists starting to return North from Florida there Is everything to indicate. that the Spa is going to enjoy it's usually prosperous month Of March.
 Professor Phillip Andrew Laffey, who is such a great favorite with the dancing set, again directed the Eastman's orchestra. He promised society in advance that he would again have the "tango dance", the recent importation from the Argen- tine Republic, introduced for the first time in Hot Springs at Wednesdays informal dance, on the program. It is a cute and clever number-no '.wriggly -wiggly" thing. The tango dance" again made hit with the dancers. Professor Laffey gave it for all three extras and it was loudly applauded each time and encores hb- erally given.
