Hundreds and dreds of People who have no claims upon them in any oficial or social sense tako pleas- ure in coming to call week after woek. No Sen- ator’s wife can cail upon all the other Senators’ families, the courtand thecabinecand muke calls upon her personal friends (and these duties are all imperative if she attgnpis any), and still have any time left for the Hundreds of others. Nobody ever has done it or ever can within the limits of the season. The plan by which, as in the case of the cabinet ladies, these calla are all returned by card seems to be growing in favor. Bright skies and a balmy air made Saturday afternoon an ideal one for Mrs. Harrison's re- ception. It was just such a day when the citi- zens of the District enjoy turning out by the nundreds to do honor to the lady of the White Honse. It is the most satisfactory evidence of the high regard in which che is held and the only way that the public can give expression to their pleasure in seeing her. Even to those to whom these ceremonious functions at the White House are oft-told tales the Saturday re- ception presented new and everyw) in the throng could be heard the same pleasant comments. crowd commenced to gather early, but a large force of good-natured police- men under Lieut. Guy kept the line as straight asa string. Indoors the officers were also in uniform and, stationed at all the necessary ints, rendered the same effective service. The t that these officers were in uniform was gen- erally commended. A part of the Maine Band under Prof. Sousa had a big section of the vesti- bule to themselves, but hy 4 filled that part and a great many more cubic feet of space with the aweetest, brightest music. The hands of the tall clock in the hall wore pointing to $ when Mrs. Harrison, escorted by Col. Ernst, came down stairs. ‘Mrs. Fuller and Lieut. Cowies came next and then in twosand threes came tripping along the young lady assistanta. ‘the reception had commenced before the third lady of the receiving line, Mrs. Brown, the wife of the new justice, came’ in to take her place. Then the ladies gave their undivided attention to bowing and smiling graciansly to the hun- dreds of persons who passed along for the next two hours. There were not many waits for the incoming throng and as few rests for the receiving party. Nearly everybody waited in the east room or in the corridors so as to catch snother glimpue of the bright scene in the blue parlor. ‘The ladies behind the line took as much in- terest in what was going on as did any one who watched them. Many of them were assisting for the first time at such un imposing cere- mony. Back of the barricade of sofas, against which the ladies in front could lean, the girls formed. wall of loveliness. Some of ' the pret- tiest girls out this winter were in tho number, as everybody will admit when the list is scanned The gowns were fresh, dainty and be- coming. Mrs. Harrizon, in deference to all her yonthfu assistants, had on one of her dark owns—a black broended satin that had a pink- fih'mauve sitin combined with it. She eacricd a bouquet of long-stemnmed roses. Mra. Faller had on a gown of cade, with silver pavsementerie. Mrs. Brown wore a blue satin that had bouquets of wild roses brocaded in it. It was combined with a deeper shade of silver blue satin and fine old point ince covered the high faring collar. She also carried roses, the gift of Mrs. Mar- mn. Among the ladies invited to reccive behind the line were the Mixses Pauncefote, Mies Edie, the Misses Leiter, Miss Parker, i ficld, Miss Warder, Mise Breckinridge, Mivs Cabell, Miss Casey, the Misses Blackburn, Miss Dawes, Miss Edmunds, Miss Quay, Miss ‘S mau, Miss Stougiton, Misa Jones, iiss Walthall, Miss Scranton, Miss Car- roll, the Misses Grosvenor, Miss Audenreid, Biss , Miss Gorman, Siiss Hunt, Mis Lodge, Miss Pugsley, Mies Dingley, sliss Nied- ringhaus, iiss Harlan, Miss Fuller, Miss Dabl- gren, Miss Kenna and Miss Lowey After 5 o'clock Mrs. Tarrison entertained her receiving party upstairs,where a half hour was moi delightéully spent.

Mrs. Hurrison was the charming hostess, who was here and there and every- ere, aceing to the pleasure of all her guests. ‘The President also joined the merry throng, as did Mr. iiussell Harrison, who had just come on from New York for 'a short stay. Mrs. McKee, Mrs. Russell Harrison and Mrs. Dirp- mick held iiniature courts of their own all through the afternoon and were as usual the helpful assistants of the corridor Mrs. A. L.

Fate decreed otherwise, however, and inter- posed another delay, which they hope will be of only brief duration. Senator Platt, who has the copyright bill in charge, was intending to call it up after the morning hour, but after conferring with vari- ous Senators who are friendly to the copyright Dill, but are also anxious to proceed with the Pending financial bill, he deci‘ted that it world injudicious to interrupt the regular order today, especially os a nuraber of the siiver men expressed a decided unwillingness to yield the floor at this time even for an hour. ‘This docs not imply any danger as to the ultimate passage of the bill except, of course, the danger of delay, and it is quite possible that an opportunity may be found to call the bill up some day this week, possibly tomorrow. ‘The chiet danger in the path of the proposed legislation is from amendment.
