A UNIQUE HALLOWE’EN PARTY A very unique Hallowe’en party was given Thursday, October 28, by Mrs. Ruby Webster and Alberta Rich ardson at 976 North Twenty fifth street. Twenty-four guests were pres ent. Coming into the spacious yard, the guests were confronted by a skele ton bearing directions to the entrance, which was in the basement. After wandering in darkness they were ad mitted by three raps into a dimly lighted “den” infested with bats, witches, garlands and other Hallow e’en decorations, where games and fortunes were enjoyed by all. The feature of the party was a “treasure hunt” Each guest was given a candle and envelope with di rections which lead them into the yard where signs lighted by jack-o’-lantems kept them going to various places, lastly to the witches cauldron, where a cap concealed in orange and black paper was given each with instruc tions to return to the den. Returning I to the den, four tables artistlally dec orated with place cards and other fa vors awaited all. A very delicious repast was then served. Another feature was the music for dancing which was furnished by the f mellow strains of ukuleles and a guitar. “HELLO PAREE" “Hello Paree,” promises to he a ij .i—, . J'-u1. -1 - rather novel entertainment, inasmuch as while it has all the indications of a musical comedy, it also has many of the elements incorporated in what might be termed polite vaudeville. The author has written a fragile theme about a party of tourists who visit that section of the world, where the stamp of worth is only regulated by the size of the pocketbook, and tho mythical citizen goes around attired in a smock and velvet hat; this he calls “Hello Paree” and injects a lot of very catchy songs, some exceeding ly clever dialogue; interpolates several meritorious specialties, introduces a very good cast, and presents sixteen of as attractive singing and dancing girls as have appeared upon the local stage this season. It is here at th'1 Gayety theatre commencing Sunday matinee. DR. WILLIAM D. FOUNTAIN TRANSFERRED TO DENVER Dr. William D.
