| " in the boxes and balconies and
enjoyed the fun fully as much as
the younger element on the big ball
room floor
True. not all the elder ones sat still
and looked on. Many of them took
their places on the floor and danced
with all the vim and ardor of their
youngers, but it was noticeable that
they did not attempt the tango or any
of the other new-fangled dances. The
fashioned round-and-round waltz
and two-step were good enough for
them. And there was very little tam
going last night, for even the most
ardent devotees of the new-fangled
dances had great difficulty in doing
the fancy steps and dips on the crowd
ed ballroom floor, where six hundred
persons were dancing.
While the sir hundred danced
twelve hundred others lookd on from
the gaily decorated boxes and bal
comics. The large auditorium was
beautifully dressed being turned into
a tropical garden for the night.
This was due to the fact that the
500 guests were entertained With a
pantomine playlet "a Night in Mex
leo" by a cast of fifty amateurs, This
was a dainty little skit on the troubles
of that always troubled republic and
was we'll received. A solo from Car
men, by Miss Margaret Rogge and a
Spanish dance by Miss Caroline Schal-
Ter pleased the audience so much
they were both forced to respond to
encores.

minutes, started at 10: 30 O'Clock and
was a scene representing a masked
