One of the prettiest events in local
society was the juvenile dancing party
given at their elegant home by Mr.
and Mrs. Bell De Remer last evening
in honor of their two children. Miss
Delores and Samuel. Twenty-six of
their littl'e friends were the for'.unate
recipients of invitations and gathered
at the De Remer residence at 8 o'clock
and from that hour to 11 danced in
the large rooms on the third floor,
frappe being served to them there all
evening. At 10 o'clock the company
marched down to the dining room
where refreshments of cocoa and
wafers were served. The tables were
decorated artistically with pink car
nations one of which was given as a
favor to each of the guests as they left
the dining room to return to the ball
room. This party being something of
a .change from the ordinary was all
the more enjoyable for the young
guests. The De Remer home is an
ideal one for entertaining, being
spacious as well as artistic.
Mrs. I. N. Walker and daughter Ruth
Walker of Claresholm, Alberta, are
guests of Mrs. Raymond, Chestnut
street. They at one time resided in
this city and will be cordially wel
comed by their many friends. They
expect to be here a fortnight.
A large number enjoyed the Pioneei
dance last evening.
ji, Last evening at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Fred Redick Miss Camila
Redick was showered by the ladles of
the Rebekah lodge of which she is a
prominent member. It is an assured
fact that Miss Camila will need no
more kitchen articles for a long time
to come as everything necessary to a
well regulated kitchen was provided
fay the ladies as an expression of their
friendship and gooa wishes. It was
a very pleasant occasion and much
enjoyed by all. Miss Redick will be
married next Wednesday to Mr. A. A.
Bradley of Williston, N. D.
Miss Eva Desautels is visiting her
parents at Michigan City.
Miss Kate Ryan is contemplating a
'trip to West Baden. She expects to
leave here very soon.
The young friends of Annie Poupore
gave her a genuine surprise last even

numbers at her home and. proceeded
to enjoy themselves as only young
people can. Dancing was indulged in

Mr. Reg. Smith and his bride ar
rived home last night from their
wedding trip. They had a strenuous
time being thirty-six hours in going
from Portal to Minneapolis the aver
age rate of travel being nine miles an
hour. Of course the time did not seem
as long to them as it would to ordin
ary travelers, yet it obliged them to
change and shorten their route. They
had intended touring through Canada
Via Winnipeg but found conditions as
bad in the sister country as in this
and so went to Minneapolis instead.
A unique shower party was that
given lately at Hatton in honor of
Miss Ellen Peterson who was shortly
to leave the town. It was given at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. T. E. Nelson
where she resided. Miss Peterson
came home from town to find the
great house in total darkness. She
had started to secure a light, when
from out the darkness a perfect show
er of linen bundles were hurled at her.
and a sea of feminine faces greeted
her as the house aH at once became
brilliantly lighted. The rooms were
decorated in broken hearts.
Mrs. Thos. Grjfflth is entertaining
her mother Mrs. H. A. Goodrich of
Cresco, Iowa. She will remain three
months.
The inaugural ball held last night
at the state capitol was largely attend
ed and was the most brilliant of any
.previous occasion. Five hundred were
in attendance from all parts of the
state.
Cotillion favors continue to be as
costly as the hostess can afford, and
very well worth having are the toys
society plays with at the debutante
dances this season. At a recent affair
of this sort combination fans and
opera glasses were among the novel
offerings. These devices are so ar
ranged that each part serves as a
handle for the other. When the glas
ses are in use the fan takes the
place of a lorgnette handle, and when
the fan is opened the glasses makes
a substantial holder. So attractive
were they that many of them were
"lost" that evening. One young wo
man whose fan and glasses disappear
ed mysteriously remarked that it
might come that cotillion detectives
would be necessary in society. Le
mons have played an important part
in the way of gifts during the holi
days. A lemon tree laden with the
fruit was given to one society woman,
which she displayed proudly. At a
party early in the week where the
favors, attached to different colored
ribbons, were drawn from a basket,
a large yellow lemon was discovered
on the last ribbon of all.
The names of the popular dances
which add so much to the enjoyment
of the festive season of Christmas
have, in most cases, a very interesting
origin or significance.
The position taken up by the danc
ers gave the name to the quadrille,
which is literal French for "a little
square," while country dance has no
connection with rustic gymnastics,
but is simply a corruption of the
French contre-danse, which the re
ference to the position to each other
during the dance.
The lancers derived its name from
the fact that this variation of the
quadrille was originally improvised
by a company" of lancers for their own
amusement while seated in their sad
dles.
The polka Is a Polish dance, and its
name comes from the Bohemian word
pulka, meaning half, and refers to
the half-step which occurs In this
lively measure, of which the more
graceful schottlsche Is a variation-,
both names, like that of the nation
al dance, of Poland—the mazovrka—
being native' terms.
The short steps peculiar to the old
time favorite, the minuet, gave the
dance its name, the Latin for small
being mlnntus.
The waltz, again owes its name to
its characteristic movement, the Ger
man waltzen—meaning to revolve—
expressing the circling motion of the
dancers.
Hie Roger de Coverley Is named
after its originator while the less
familiar dance known as the tarantel
la is so called because Its vigorous
movements were supposed to be a
certain antidote- to the poison of a
noxious spider at Taranto, in Italy,
where the dance is highly poular.
The evolutions of the dancer suf
ficently explain the term reel. Jig is
from the French gigue and break
down is a term from across the At
lantic, and refers to the final rout be
fore the break-up of a free-and-easy
dancing party.

a Grand Forks military band have
been taken which will be perfected

this a strong and successful organiza
tion.
The musical people of Grand Forks
have been quite active this week. The
rehearsals for the Oratorio on Tues
day evening attracted a large number

for more. Rehearsals will be given
weekly on Tuesdays at the Conserva
tory rooms.

Proi. Evans' quartet has plans near
ly perfected to make a tour of the
principal cities of North Dakota and
Minnesota and give concerts. Those
who have had the pleasure of hearing
this quartet at the Christian Science
church and at recitals predict for it
a very successful trip.
An American piano manufactur
er, who iiade a visit to Mme Patti's
home in Wales, says that the diva
has enough pianos and organs scat
tered through the castle to stock a
music store. Most of the insturments
were gifts from makers.
Forty concerts and rehearsals will*
form the local season for the Philadel
phia orchestra. Soloists engaged are
Saint-Saens, Gadski, Schumann-Helnk,
Arthur Hartman, Rosenthal, Fanny
Bloomfield Veisler, Olga Samaraoff,
Lhevinne, Petschnikoff.
Saint-Saens' tour will include en
gagements as piano and organ soloist
and orchestral conductor. An effort
is being made to get together a body
of singers to give the'Opera 'Samson
and Delilah" under the composer's
direction in a number of the larger
cities.
Elgar's new oratorio, "The King
dom," lately 'given by the London
Choral society at the Queen's hall, is
a great advance on "The Apostles"
but its musical inspiration Is far be
low that of "Gerontlus." The didactic
nature of the wordB is doubtless re
sponsible for the monotonous char
acter of so much of the music when
the text gives him his opportunity
Elgar rises to great heights the whole
of the section entitled "The sign of
Healing," with its subdivisions "At the
beautiful gate" and "The arrest," con
tains some of the finest music that he
has ever written.
Miss Janet Spencer, the contralto,
created quite a sensation recently in
her rendition of the part of Delilah in
Saint Saens' oratorio, "Samson and
Delilah." It occurred in St. Louis,
and after the performance the great
composer personally .congratulated
the singer, saying he had never heard
the part sung so perfectly and to his
entire satisfaction.
