Over a thousand dance orders had been issued. but before the evening was ball over the supply was exhausted and those who came in late were compelled to secure their dances as best they could. Nearly all the evening there were over live hundred on the floor and the mer~ ty scene was one not soon to be for‘ gotten. The gallery was well patronized and the seats at the side Were at a premium, 'so that after each dance the dancers went to the rear of the hall anti await.— ed thenext number.

The dance orders consisted of twenty numbers. the waltz. two step. lanciers, caprice. three step and varsouviannn, occupying the attention of the dancers until after midnight.

With Selectmen in Regard to the Matter. Dr. William J. Tracey. health ofllcer of the town of Norwalk, held a con- ference with the-seleotmen, at their office in the town hall‘ building. this morning. in regard to establishing a . town isolation hospital. Dr. Tracey is very enthusiastic over the matter, and believes an institution of this charac- ter is very badly needed by the town. and would be a saving over the pres- ent methods of procedure when a se- veie contagious disease like entail pox comes to light. The selectmen have as yet taken no action in the matter 'and it is not knovm what course they will pursue. In regard to such a hospital Dr Tracey said this morning that ould one be established by the town. t e ex- pense of cue would not be very heavy, and any house on the outskirts of the town would answer the purpose. He cited the smallpox cases in South Norrwalk, where lt"has. been necessary to have watchmen constantly on the alert to keep any persons from coming near the house where the two patients are confined. Beside this it was neces- sary to confine the other people in the housohold where the disease broke out in a tent. Dr. Tracey contends that it would have been much better to have removed the patients immediately to an Isolated place. MUST LEAVE COAL COBB LAND.

Yestttar; hearts of the Georgetown people sank within them as they looked forward to a rainy day. But long before the ester- cises were to begin the clouds disapo peared and left no doubt of the weath- er for the occasion.

The edifice was tilted to overflowing at morning. afternoon and evening ser- vices. it being necessary to place chairs in all the aisles. Every detail passed off without. the slightest trouble or inconvenience, so well had the plans beenlarrangcd. The music pre pared specially for the occasion was beautiful and made the exercises grander and more impressive than they could possibly have been without When Frederick J.

But with wonderful persever- ance be stuck to the task and no one will say that the result could have been better. A chorus of forty vole-ea. remarkably well trained, secured from the several churches in Georgetown. made a volume of music that made the church ring and was a fitting com- mencement of the song service in the new building. The singing by the quartet. Mrs. Leonard T. Whitney. Mrs. Amy Wood-Sims. F. J. Force and Julian‘ll. Main, individually and to- gether. was of the highest order. the large audience being inspired. Truly the singing was one of the most im~ prcssive features of the. occasion. On either side of the platform hand- some bouquets of carnations helped to form the decorations. while daisies were banked on either side the pol- pit and the communion table filled with cut flowers.
