D
YOU know I nm getting quite
.Tiiwl nvee this anniversary duii
..i.irii U to be civen In the Academy of
Music on January Ul to celebrate the
nixtv-fourth nnnlvermry of the opening
of the house. The ball is to be opened
with n tableau in which members of the
older generation, some even who were
at tho original ball, will pose. Then n
wonderful old-fnshioned quadrille in
which more than two hundred persons
will tnke patt will be danced, the. men
mil women wearing costumes of the
n period. The bull la being given
under the auspices of the four worn
mi's committees of the Philadelphia Or-
hostra. nnd many lnrge musical or
ganizations in the city will be rcpre-
ented hv the danrers. The proceeds arc
lo go to the Orchestra.
Resides the lovely old costumes of the
57s there will be it reproduction of the
ilecnrntioiiH as far as possible nnd the
red velvet hangings, the grotto and
fountain of the opening ball will he re
produced. Miss Rebecca W etberlll was
he young woman of that day who led
the grand march at tho ball.
Some of the frocks that were worn by
i he belles of thoce dos are still in
i xistence and will he worn on the twen-
v-fourth, nnd the committee, will have
miiili. rnnlpn nf the VlirilltlH rOWHS WllOSC
discretions they are able to obtain, and I
the dancers will wear liieiu. iiie Biirswt
are not to be asked to wenr fancy cos
tume, but it is hoped that thobe who
h.ive old-fashioned costumes of that
period will wear the gowns und the
fimnv old dress clothes nnd high stocks
of the men. I think It will all be very
beautiful. And tin' long full skirts with
their (rinoline linings nud tho soft
irett coils of hair will be Mich n re
lief after the short skirts nnd no waists
Hnd high, high heels and rather wild
bobbed heads of today.
