THE OPENING COTILLION.
It Was the Host Successful German Salisbury
Has Ever Witnessed Neighboring:
Cities Well Represented.
The Salisburg German Club gave
a cotillion last night. The room
has no decorations as yet except the
band stand is draped in a big Amer
ican flag. It is well ventilated and
despite the insufferable heat a breeze
could be found in almost any of the
five large windows.' A most sensi
ble, praiseworthy, and we might say
novel idea, was noticed in the gener
ous supply of palm leaf fans tnat the
club furnished. The neat was in
tense and had it not been for the
preparations to fight this . one "dan
gerous enemy the pleasure that ev
erybody enjoyed, would have been
curtailed. The floor is one of the best
Salisbury has.
The first couples began to arrive
about 10;o'clock and at 11 the room
was well filled. Xhe floor managers
placed the couples in the Drder in
whish they should dance thegerman.
Mr. John Yoike, of Concord, led the
german with grace and ease. Ow
ing to the large number of dancers
and spectators there was a crush at
first' but after everything had settled
down to business the dance blos
somed into one of the prettiest ger
mans Salisbury has ever seen.
There, has always existed a strong
t social f ncmdship-Ttwetj-iI
dnd '' Concord -tan'd the latter was
more strongly represented than any
other neighboring town. ' . ' .
A more brilliant assembly of
young people could hardly be gotten
together than it was our pleasure to
witness last night. We are proud
of the girls of our Old North State
and doubly so of tlie girls of good
old Salisbury.
The chaperon es were : Mesdames
E. B. Neave, W. II. Ballew, Walter
Blackmer, L. S. Overman, E. W.
Burt, Chas. 'Price, C. F. Ritchie,
