OF COURSE, the gala event of the
week was the Japanese reception
and ball on Friday evening-, and
with the pure glee of the carnival Bplrlt
of revelry In the atmosphere the past
week was one of the maddest and
liveliest from the standpoint of the

ball on Friday evening, being preceded
by numerous dinner parties. Mr. and

charming dinner Friday evening at
Hotel Multnomah, Gay Lombard being a
dinner host the same evening, also at

The Halloween dance at Trinity
parish-house, given by the Ladles'

affair, and a representative gathering
of the smart set assembled for the
vent
Luncheons and teas at the Waverly
Country Club on Wednesday, the day
of the golf match between the English
stars and the club's best players, of

Viewed from whatsoever angle, bril
liant Is the only word that fitly could
bo applied to the ball a honor, of the
birthday of the Emperor of Japan given
jf-riaay mgnt Dy Consul and Mrs. M.
Ida at the Hotel Multnomah, where the
elite of Portland society, together with
the officers and their wives from Van
couver Barracks, united to pay their
homage and to offer their congratula
tions to His Majesty through his court
ly and diplomatic representative.
The court dress of the official rep
resentatives of various nations, the
flashes of gold on the epaulettes of
the officers, the splendor of some of
the Japanese women who wore their
National court costumes to the admira
tion of the whole assembly, the won
derful creations from Paquin, Worth
and Luclle which gowned the reigning
beauties of the city all combined with
the decorations, both floral and muraL
and with the delicate tints of the sub
dued light from the Japanese lanterns
to form a blending of color, gayety
and brilliance which has- seldom been
equaled and never excelled.
