cess than had been anticipated. The entire mezzanine floor of the hotel

tricate grand march, directed by Montrose M. Ringler, after twining in and out
for some minutes, ended in a merry Paul .Tones. After the Paul Jones cotillion,

fective as the gay and tilting balloons, bobbing among the charmingly attired dan
cers. made a riot of color and contrast which was enchanting.

and in the favors. The holiday season was also honored in the decoration scheme,
holly wreaths and greens being used extensively.
