The ball room was elaborately decorated. On all the palms filling the window niches and embower- ing the room myriads of electric lights gleamed like fireflies, The electric lights in the chan- delier burned under yellow shades, Nothing broke the effect of the shining greens but the arrangement in the balcony, where great bunches of calla lilies and jonqutls were massed. The musicians had places on the floor half hidden by a aedge of green. Mrs. John Lee Carroll was the hostess of the evening. She was superbly gowned in white satin with quantities of fine lace on it and had on many gleaming diamond ornaments. Her toilet was the keynote so faras color went. It was really a white ball. Some of the most elab- orate and becoming gowns seen this winter were in white fabrics and were making their first appearance. There were probably more diamonds worn, and finer ones, too, than have bean seen together at any previous iarge assem- blage.
