The members of Columbia Dancing Club scarcely recognized Baldwin hall last night in its beautiful decorations, which, under tiie supervision of Sid Kel- ley, were certainly most - artistic and in keeping with the perfectarrangement of every detail in connection with the domino party. The elfect was most novel and attract ive to the eye when at 0:30 about tbirtv couples, attired, the gentlemen in pink and the ladies in white douiinos, filed into the hall to the enlivening strains of the Moequito march. During the first six dances the antics of the dancers in the effort to conceal their identity and discover that of their partners were most amusing, and In this hour it is said one pink dominio is etill wondering who fooled him so completely in the grand march. Between dances the lefreshment room Beeined to be the favoiite resort, and all who visited it were amply repaid and greatly refreshed, giving them a fresh impetus for the remainder of the pro gram, which was all too short. At the close of the last waltz Mr. Gif lord requested the participants to smile their sweetest and pose for a flashlight photo., which, afterjdne prelimaries, was taken just when least expected, trans forming the smiles iiito expressions of intense furprise. Altogether the pirty waB a delightful one, and among thevisitors who joined the club members! in the dancing were Mr. and Mrs. F. N. Jones, of this city ; Mr. anil Mrs. A. C.
