SOCIAL MATTERS. A Review of the Brilliant Season and ‘What ts In Prospect— Personal Notes. the ‘and gayest known in thiscity. The high of Me, Clevelanie government, when they found their party had been defeated at the in November, resolved to make the winter a memorable one in beng gene OD and they didso. It is generally and ly conceded on all sides that the ladies who were most prominent in the past administration were in every way a credit to American woman- hood. They were models of good breeding, correct carriage upon ail occasions, and they were fully = with all the social graces that go to make life at the capital a delightful episode in the existence of anyone called here for s time. In addition to the schedule of offi- cial dinners and receptions that official etiquette Pequires of the President and the members of his cabinet, especial efforts iu hospitality were pet forth by the White tiouse circle for the eu- mt of guests at the capital. Mrs. Cleveland took ups new line of procedure, and herself gave evening entertainments at the White House that were greatly enjoyed by the few who were invited to partake of her per- sonal favor as thus demonstrated. It was the first year of the three that she spent here that she assumed the duties of hostess with anything bke —— responsibility attaching to the act, and in her inexperience did not know how to extract the greatest and most lasting pleasure from her efforts. Mrs. Cleveland made her Monday evening receptions a benefit for a email circle, r= | they earned the epithet of being exclusive; and everybody who has studied Washington society is aware that an official ex- ehusivencss as a social state has ever been svoided by the elegant social leaders whose ames stand forth upon the records of the Bation to-day. One of the most elegant host- quses ever seen at the capital was the late Mra. ft i g f iE ! & i i F ? i a é 4 f & & gt?

Mrs. Dickinson entertained her friends whom she wished to especially favor with a series of noon m ‘to which invitations were given verbally, and the events were most enjoyable. ~ Other notably important social events of the winter were the large card receptions given by Senator and Mrs. Cockrell, Mr. and Mrs. 8.

HISTORY OF THE NIPSIC. The Nipsic has been at Apia for four months, She was put in commission October 10, 1887, at New York, and sailed from that port for the Pacific January 18, 1883, She finally sailed from ic assistant paymaster, John Convine; chief enginer. George W. Hall; 4 assistant engineer, Horace Frick, first ieutenant of ma- rines, T. G. Fillette. She is described in the naval register asa second-rate vessel of the cruiser type, having wooden hull and a screw propeller, and is bark-rigged. She is armed with six guns in her main battery, mostly smooth bore, and is rated at 1,375 tons displacement. ‘THE TAENTON AND VANDALIA, which have undoubtedly reached Apia by this time, are larger than the Nipsic, both being second rate ships. The Trenton is a wooden cruiser, with ten guns and 3,900 THE OLGA 18 THE MOST FORMIDABLE of the German vessels now in Samoan waters, being a single decked cruiser, unarmored and unprotected. She is of 2,200 tons displacement and is about the size of the Vandalia, having been built in 1880. The principal battery con- siste of eight six-inch Krupp rifles and a num- ber of Hotchkiss revolving cannon. She carries a supply—presumably about half a dozen—of Schwartzkoff torpedoes, which are similar to the Whitehead. They are launched by torpedo tubes. Her speed is probably somewhat superior to that of the Vandalia, her maximum trial speed having been 14 knots. The other German vessels at Africa are the Adler and the Eber, both of which are smaller and weaker than the Olga. The Adler is about 650 tons displacement, and carries four Krupp 5 and 6 inch rifles; the Eber carrying three 5 inch rifles. —— t superiority of this fleet over the Am vessels at Samoa lies in the presence of these torpedoes, of which there is not one in the United States navy. On some of our vessels, however, there are pliances known ‘as Ms ad torpedoes,” which are generaliy charact ed as being worse useless. GERMAN IRONCLADS GONE TO SAMOA. The Navy department has been informed of the departure, about a week ago, of four Ger- man iron-clads from Genoa, Italy, for Samoa. It is not known whether they will sail by way of the Suez canal or by wey of Cape Horn. In either case, they will be at least sixty days en route. We have the Marion, Omaha, and Dol- bin at or near China and Ja but all three ether would not be a for one German ironclad. THE STORY ABOUT THE NIPSIC. Little Credence in the Report. that Si was Blown Up at Samoa. In reference to the reported naval battle in Samoan waters, London dispatches say that the fact that the Schlesiche Zeitung of Breslau is a recognized vehicle of inspired publica- tions lends great gnterest to the report in its columns, but even this voucher is not sufficient to warrant belief here that the American ship, with all on board, was blown up. It is sug- gested that the item was printed merely asa feeler in view of future possibilities, A still further evidence that the report is not true, the London dispatch continues, is that the Cologne Gazette, which is generally better in- formed than any of its German contemporaries, prints a carefully prepared and undoubtedl: official review of the Samoan situation, which it concludes by saying: ‘We await further devel- opments.” ‘This perhaps is entitled tono more consideration than the alleged dispatch in the Schlesiche but as the Gazelie is also an inspired organ the two publications are taken to indicate that Germany expects a row in Sa- moa, and is awaiting information of the re- sults of its instructions to that end, SOME EXCITEMENT IN SAN FRANCISCO. The report of a battle in Samoa stirred up much feeling in San Francisco. The best in- formed people did not credit the report. Capt. Schenck, quartermaster United States marine verifies the report that the Olga was supplied with torpedoes, which is not the case with the three American war vessels dispatched to Samoa, , of of ‘€MR. WHITNEY DISCREDITS THE REPORT. Ex-Secretary Whitney, when asked his opin- ion about the report in New York last night, said he considered it unworthy of credence. If such an event had occurred it would be known all over the world by this time. He said there had been no news from Samoa in three weeks. It was possible the bg es had been destroyed bya penpals, but he d.dn’t think anything of kind had happened. THE SHOCK HERE. Two Persons Assert that they Noticed the Earthquake Last Evening. Mr. E. Baldwin writes as follows to the Star: “Last night, while sitting alone in my room at 126 E northwest, I distinctly felt several verti- eal motions of the chair upon which I sat, the 's quick snap, as if being suddenly pressed against.
