The Dewey ball given in thft Audito
rium in Chicago Monday evening,
April 30, is said by the connoisseurs to
be the most splendid affair of that kind
ever given in the city. Thera were
hundreds of people in attendance, and
the dress was beautiful and brilliant.
The Sunday Chronicle, in speaking of
the function, say: "The admiral of
the navy was much admired. His splen
did bronze face, dashing white mus
tache, and brilliant dark eyes, set oil so
well by the wealth of gold lace on his
long tailed coat, won men and women
alike. The bonhomie and cordiality of
the admiral and also his evident enjoy
ment of the party given in his honor
were most winning. He sat most of the
time on a raised throne-like ssat near
Mrs. Dewey and Mrs. Arthur Caton.
The wife of the admiral is a comely wo
man. Rather large, she has dark au
burn hair, small eyes, and small, round
features in a full and rather heavy face.
She wore a gown of white satin, a neck
lace of diamonds, from which hung five
stars of pearls, and in her hair was a
large diamond ornament."

the shields ot the various Spanish pro
vinces and coats of arms ot the royal
bouses. Over the door of the banquet
hall was the club motto: "Quien dice
Espana dice To to." Each shield and
banner had a rich dark background ot
pine and balsamic fur of the Maine
woods, brought from the ancestral home
of the Castilipn's president and founder,
Mrs. Abba Goold Woolson, in Wind
ham, Me., and everywhere bloomed in
graceful profusion red and yellow tulips
and jonquils, and the white lilies of
Ferdinand de Aguerro, grandfather of
Isabella's bridegroom of Arragon. In
the balcony was stationed the band of
minstrels.
At the upper end of the hall, on a
stae dressed in the Spanish colors,
Mrs. Woolson, assisted by her vice pres
idents, Mrs. Crane and Mrs. Nichols,
and some ladies of her court, received
the g'lests. who passed with courtly
obeisance, before her in review. As
each guest approached the throne, he or
she halted until the herald, stationed
at the left of the stage, commanded the
advance with a pilvery burst from his
trumpet. Then the guest, bending low,
answered to the "Quien?'" of the herald,
Mr. Clarence G. Benedict, with the
