Tho first was given on Thursday evening, and tho dates assigned for the others are January 16, February 13 and March 20. In all the history of "dove" cotillons in Brooklyn or elsewhere always popular despite the complete absence of men, there was never a greater success scored than yesterday morning at tho Pouch Gallery when, under tho auspices of the St.

Christopher Circle, a newly established charitable organization, a cotillon in which over 200 girls took part, was danced. Forecasts and the sale of tickets so plainly showed that this would be the biggest sort of affair that four girls were invited to lead, Miss Clara Belle Adams and Miss Elsie Fuller, Miss Kate Ketcham and Miss Henrietta L. Jones. The first two of these girls took tho first hour, the second pair leading during the second hour. Each girl had an end tho string of more than 1C0 couples to manage, and with this the big cotillon moved along with a dash and spirit.

Dancing began at 10 o'clock and continued until past 12. The figures were attractive, and the favors pretty ones. The first favors given out wero paper chrysanthemums and paper butterflies. Each girl got one of these, and they becamo designating favors. The girls that wero assuming the role of men in tho cotillon were given the chrysanthemums.

The butterflies son, Edwin J. Worcester. An attractive tea given recently and not as yet chronicled was that of Miss Julia Moore and Miss Ethel Moore of 178 St. Johns place a week ago yesterday between the hours of 4 and 7.

Nearly 300 people were present during the afternoon, the guests Including many Packer girls. Miss Julia Moore wore a frock of white dotted chiffon and carried American Beauties.

It had been a well handled dance, indeed, especially for an initial effort, and the enjoyment subscribers and guests was shown from the fact that nearly every one stayed to the end, and few sat out many of the dunces. Despite the stormy night there, were many pretty frocks and a large attendance. Mailer played capitally, introducing one now feature that will be much about.

Tho past few days have one important wedding to their credit, tho marrlago of Miss Mabel Louise Judson and Dr. Rowland Cox, in the Second Presbyterian Church on Wednesday afternoon. It was a tulle wedding, the bride's gown being of this fabric, and'ber maids being garbed in it. as well. The church was adorned with white chrysanthemums and palms, with here and there a touch of pink in the shape of standards of pink begonias.

The pevs along the center aisle were marked with bunches of white chrysanthemums. The Rev. Andrew McGaffln officiated and the hour of tho ceremony was 5 o'clock. At the home Mr. and Mrs.

Henry I. Judson, 116 Willow street, afterward, there was a largo reception. This bridal proved one of tho handsomest and most effective In Brooklyn for several years. It is one of the curious minor statistics that will be worth recalling later on that the carriages at tho church (at the corner of Clinton and Remsen Btreets), not only took up the whole of. tho Remsen street block, but wound around the City Hall, the line extending into Fulton street In front of the Park Theater; 365 carriages in all were counted.

Miss Judson's tulle wedding gown was appliqued with lace and had a court train of white satin. Her tulle veil was caught with natural orange blossoms and she carried lilies of the valley and orchids. Her maid of honor was her sister, Miss Helen Judson, and her bridesmaids, Miss Fanny Cox, Miss Kathryn McCann, Miss Ethel Pearsall, Miss Beatrice Barnes, Miss Agema Wheeler, Miss Mary Post and Miss Felicia Judson of St. Louis. Maid of honor and bridesmaids were all in white, In tulle, touched with silver.

This color plan gave th brJdal train a most brilliant and dainty effect. The eight girl3 wore largo hats of tulle and chenille, with plumes, and they carried President Carnot roses. Tho usherp of this occasion wero Augustus D. Sheppard, Dr. Percy R.

Turnuro, Robert Hill Cox, Augustus Wadsworth, Johnson da Forest and John J. Van Nostrand of Columbia heights.
