THE O DAILY BEE, SATURDAY, JANUARY 80, 1886 WITH MUSIC, DANCE AND PLAY A Brilliant Week in Soclety Circles-- Several Notahlo Events. The Dazzling Mikado Party Last Evening—Sevoral Pleasant Card Partics—Personalities—The Hymenometer, The observant spectator at Light Guards' hall last night witnessed a signt geldom seen on any ball-room floor. The oceasion was the Mikado ball given by the Home Circle club, and it is safe to say that the ty was the most brilliant and unique ever attempted by this popu- lar organization. The scene was one of bewildering gorgeons and fan- tastic costumes of the oriental pattern. The Mikudo, Oolong, Souchong, Pooh- Bah, Pish-Tush, Ko-Ko, Nanki-Poo, with arrays of mnobles, courtiers, ladies, soldiers and peasants, were to be seen waltzing and schottisching together to Gilbert & Sullivan's latest and brightest comic opera. Everything passed off smoothly and gayly, and the party broke up after midnight, cach one leaving the hall with the memory of a royal even- ing’s pleasure The costumes worn on the oc were—many of them—bright, unigte and orrect The parts assumed by the special com- mittee were as follows: The .\I\kulln of Japan | Basket fi colors, Pickens Latey Copley L L Conrag Wi, Brown J, W.Gannon Go- Long, Chie Al-There | Cu StaThere | The other membe of the (‘lul) ap- peared as lovds, soldiers, and peasants, while the ladies passed as Yum-Yums, Pitt f ete. One of the best costumes to seen was that of Mr. Harry who appeared as a Japanese courtier, with the regulation lordly tuft of hair which ‘oomed up from the back of his shaven head like a palm trec in a desert. Mr. Pickens’ dress as the Mikado was an exact counterpart of Lul]('lulli J. W. Gannon as Ko-Ko played a fine costume, as did also Mr. B. F. Redman, the wandering min- strel, Nanki-Poo. Among the gentlemen present in tume, in addition to the committee men- tioned above were Messrs, Shriver, Young, Hascall. Howell, Livesey, Champ- lin, Allen, Anderson, Merriam, Streit Kosters, Kouns, Fosbenner, M am, Cummings, Tunica, Orr. Among the ladies present in costume were the Misses Pickens, Worth, Bertie and Florence Birkhauser, Haseall, Smith, Hurlburt, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Bailey, Miss Georgie and Josic Bean, Mrs. George Shields, Mi: iss Latey, Miss Hodge iss Collett, is .

For four whole days not a single marringe license has been issued 1n the county court, and the clerk who has had charge of that branch of the business has gone to sleep, and will not be disturbed until new developments. According to the hymenometer, how- ever, there will be something for him to do in the not far ant future. The surface of the dial of the wonder- ful instrument, the predictor of local matrimonial events, is already aglow witha dull, phosphorescent light. The index hands flit nervously around, changing with lightning-like rapidity from one quarter to another. They stop. Glancing at the dial, one notices that two names, dimly outlined, are pointed out by the hands.
