A largo number of people attended the Thanksgiving dance given in Mar- quardt's hall last night by Messrs. Green and Stafford , and the occasion was enjoyed until the lights blinked out. The cold weather preceding Thanksgiving - giving put a glaze of ice on the pond north of the Uulon Pacific tracks and the small boys have since boon enjoying the first skate of the season to the ut most. A company of about 20 young people participated in n farewell party Wed nesday afternoon given at the homo of Earl and Maybollo Slawthor in honor of their cousin , Maud Mayborry who loft for her houio in Portland , Oregon this afternoon.

The display this year was unusually fine and it was aug mented by a choice collection of beauti ful water colors. Mrs. Weatherby is an artist of ability , her especial line being fine china painting , in which she has few if any equals in the state. The weather yesterday was ideal for Thanksgiving just cold enough to give the turkey and other good things served for dinner the proper relish. The morn ing opened the coldest of the season , the government thermometer register ing but six degrees above zero. The wind was from the south , however , and warmed slightly toward midday , set tling down to colder again in the even ing. ing.Mr. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Juhl celebrated their tin wedding anniversary last night at their home | 7 ) miles west of the city. About 60 guests were present to assist them in observing the occasion and the evening was most enjoyably spent. A generous supper of good things was served and Mr. and Mrs. Jnhl received many useful and appro priate presents as reminders of the oc casion. Harry Brown , son of Mrs. Brown of South Norfolk , spent a bad night Wednesday and it was considered that his qonditions was serious. Yesterday some improvement was shown and he has since been recovering a little , with the prospects that if he is able to pass this , the third day since the operation , without a setback , he stands n good chance of recovery. He has been sick six weeks today. Miss Elsie Ahlman is very sick at the home of her parents , Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Ahlmau , at the corner of Fifth street and Philip avenue. Some days ago Miss Ahlman picked a small eruption on her face , the slight action and slight cause developing a bad case of blood poison ing from which it is feared she cannot recover. The patient was still alive at noon today , but there is no change in her condition and the members of her family are prepared to hear the worst. The Auditorium was filled last night by ouo of the largest crowds of the season , "Elmdalo Farm" being the title of the play presented. The com pany carries its own band and orchestra and uses its own special car , but disap pointment was expressed in the quality of the play and the merits of the mem bers of the cast. Like other companies of the character the greatest attention and expense is attached to the adver tising that the band will give and they seldom fail to draw a good house , but there is usually disappointment with the play. The lady who took the part of the sorvont girl was good , however , and gave several specialties that were much appreciated. With the union Thanksgiving services at ( he Methodist church and the son-Ices i ut Trinity Episcopal ohnroh , these desirous of observing the TlmnknglrliiK spirit wore all'ordod ample opportunity yesterday morning. There was a largo attomlenco at the Methodist ohurch where several of the ohurohos united in observance of the day. Eight ministers wore present and as many donomlnat ions wore roprosdntod. The sermon was by Rev. P. P. Wigton of the Presbyterian church and was of unusal.ablllty and ap propriate. The text was , "Thanks bo togOod | for Ills Unspeakable Gifts. " The Methodist choir furnished the music , which was beautiful and ap propriate. The collection amounted to $11 , which was distributed among the poor of the city. At Trinity church there was a good attoudonco and Rev. , T. 0. S. Wollls gave a pleasing Thanks giving address. The full vested choir gave splendid immio and the service was enjoyable and uplifting. The Norfolk Light and Fuel company mot aU expectations , and moro , by turn ing on their street gas lamps last night and the night before. The ! I4 lamps arc well distributed over the city and wore so situated that there were few dark and gloomy spots loft. The lamps shod a brilliant and penetrating refulgence that was moro than pleasing to the people who huvo boon groping about in the dark for so many years and It is no exaggeration to say that the city has boon bettor lighted during the past two nights than it over was before. It is n time when the only light in many parts of the city is furnished by the stars , and oven they refuse to do business on cloudy nights , so that the illumination by the gas company was in pleasing con trast to general conditions. The lamps are so situated that there are few places on the streets not lighted to some extent and it would not bo difficult to choose directions and see bad pieces of sidewalk or road in the wor.-.t and darkest kind of a night. There are points in the city whore several of the lights can bo ob served at the same time and the effect is most pleasing. The company is cer tainly to bo congratulated on the suc cess of their system. The Norfolk football team that wont to Columbus to play n Thanksgiving game did not exactly return with vic tory perched all over their banners but they did return with the satisfaction of having given their opponents a hard rub and holding them down to the small score of 10 to 0. There was a good crowd and the homo boys wore well treated by the Columbus team and their friends , but the protest against the bolt trick was unavailing and to this they account in largo part their failure to win out. The Norfolk team has not been quite as successful during the season closing with Thanksgiving day , as the univorcity eleven , but they have boon in some good games and not a member of the team has been killed or maimed for life. With the excep tion of financial support the season has not been a failure and the boys com posing the team have had a largo amount of vigorous fun. Manager Huso , who was quite confident of returning with n pronounced vic tory , failed to come back with the team and it has been reported that ho remained in Columbus that the Norfolk enthusiasts might recover from their disappointment before he runs any risk by coming homo. A wireless dispatch from him , however , indicates that he is getting even with Columbus by accum ulating a considerable amount of their hospitality to bring home with him. Mrs. P. T. Birchurd wishes to an nounce that she will have a fine collec tion of water colors on exhibition at her home next week.
