BALL AT THE ARLINGTON
~~~~~

     The visiting club ladies were tendered a dance Monday evening by the Arlington management and to say it was a success is a mild expression. The Arlington peopIe left nothing undone on this occasion. The dining hall was elaborately decorated with many colored lights and the music for the dance was the best. About. fifty couples participated in the grand march led by W. W. Allen and Mrs. Banks of Temple.
     The visitors present crowded the hall to its capacity in fact this was one of the largest attendance the Arlington bas ever had on an occasion of this kind.  Among the visiting ladies present were:
     Mesdames McQueen, Hanway, Bryan; Gibson, Calvert; Maas, Orand, Wise Robinson, Orand, Waco; Goodhue, Brown, Smith, Fuller, Sykes, Beaumont; Shannon, Clantin, Fouts, Thomson, Young, Temple: Curry, Brenham; Chew, Houston; Maitz, Goliad; Warner, Port Arthur; Yarrell, Belton; Scott, St. Louis; Hayes, Moore, Scoffield; Galveston; Seymour, Dallas and Misses Ray, Belton; Maynard, Bastrop; Miller, Anderson, Houston; Robertson, Austin; West, Waco; Lowe, Dallas; Gaines, Galveston.
     The ladies wore beautiful costumes and brilliant jewels.
     W. W. Allen and A. Levy were in charge of the floor and they did credit to the occasion. Marlin has an entertainment committee right for the summer and in the social line things should hum for the coming season.
