Annual Promenade Eclipses All Previous Ones. The '99 Junior Hop given at Water- man gymnasium last evening was in all respects one of the most brillant so- ciety events that Ann Arbor has ever seen. The ball was a magnificent af- fair in every detail. Neither expense nor trouble had been spared to make it as complete and beautiful as its pres- tige demanded. The magnificence of the decorations, the exhilarating music of the two bands, the dignified grand- eur of the patronesses, the superb beauty of the ladies, the elegance of their gowns, and the gallantry of the gentlemen made the occasion one long to be remembered. The gymnasium was beautifully dec- orated with yellow and blue bunting, which was stretched across the room from one side of the gallery to the other. Bunting was also draped around the entire edge of the gallery. Japan- ese lanterns and flags of different na- tions were suspended from the iron girders. Between the boohhs were drap- ed yellow and blue festoons reaching to the floor. The eletrical displays were beautiful. At each end of the gallery rail was a large M formed of electric bulbs on a yellow background with a blue border around it. Over the chaperones' booth, which was directly across the hall from the entrance, was a large '99 of electric bulbs on a yellow background with a green border. At regular intervals around the gallery rail were smallr M's formed by electric bulbs. The electrical displays were put in by O. K Peterson, the same man who did the work for the '98 Junior Hop. The chaperones' booth was formed of yellow, orange, green and blue bunt ing In alternate strips giving It a ver gay appearance. The inside was decor ated with palms and flowering planU with a large mrror hung at the back The programs were of green undress ed leather, made up in the form ofb card case, and lined with green silk A heraldic design was stamped acros the front cover with the word "Michi gan" across the bottom and '99 at th top. The stamping was in gold leaf. Sehremser's band and orchestra, oa Detroit, furnished the -music. Eac consisted of 2 pIeces. The orchesr was placed in the gallery above th t chaperones' booth, while the band wa r directly opposite-above the entranc t The band and orchestra played altei d nate dances. At 10:30 the grand marc was started with 255 couples in lin The march was very ably lead by Mi n Fred S. Leas, Delta Kappa Epsilol and Miss Wetmore, of Detroit, wh was attired in an elegant gown of ceris J silk. A large letter M was formed b those in the march. 4e At one o'clock supper was served 1I the Angell gymnasium. The dancers v-ere sent out in four different de- tachments, thus doing away with the crowding that was such a objectionablc feature of last year's hop. The cater- ing was done by Hangsterfer and was of the highest order. The dance con- tinued until 5:30 this morning. The following patronesses were pres- ent in the chaperones' booth: Mrs. J. C. Knowlton, who wore a. gown of yellow silk with pearl trim- rings; Mrs. V. C. Vaughan, who was dressed in blue satin brocade; Mrs. C. B. Nancrede, attired in lavender silk with velvet trimmings; Mrs. G. W. Pat- terson, figured organdie over pink silk; Mrs. W. E. Wait, white silk mull over satin; Mrs. P.

Regents' Meeting. The regents put their meeting off un- til the latter part of the present week in order that some of their number might be on hand to take in the Junior Hop. The most important business transacted at their morning session was the adoption of plans for a new law building, which is to be made by remodeling the present structure and constructing a big addition to the south of the building as it now stands. The plans of the firm of Spiers & Rohns, of Detroit, were adopted and work will be- gin as soon as the contracts can be let. The work will involve an outlay of rearly $50,000. The sum of $250 was received from I). M. Ferry, of Detroit, for the purpose of supporting a graduate fellowship in botany, and Miss Julia W. Snow, Ph. D.. was appointed to the position. Mr. Ferry has also given 170 to be used for the purchase of 19 rare volumes of Leigh Hunt's works for the general i- brary The following degrees were conferred: D. D. S., on Daniel Templar and James C. Snook; LL. B, on N. C. Fisher and Louis A. Nichols. Prof. George W. Pat- terson, of the department of engineer- ing, was given a year's leave of ab- sence for study in Europe. Dr. N. S. Hoff was granted three weeks leave to attend the national convention of dental faculties at San Francisco, Cal., as Michigan's representative. A pri- vate telephone service between the two University boiler houses was ordered ertablished. In the afternoon the regents discuss- ed at length the matter of receiving patients into the University hospital and finally decided to lay the whole subject on the table. As this matter was brought up by the medical faculty Rho desired an interpretation of the by-law, "Patients known to have an abundant means may be refused ad- mission to the hospital and gratuitous treatment by the hospital corps or by the physicians having charge of the diseases for which they are treated," the regents action today practically means that they do not see the need of any further interpretation.
