Distinguished Persons Who Were Present— ‘Mr. and Mrs. Oates’ Reception—Mrs. Dyren- forth’s Tea—Ladies Who Will Receive Their Friends—Personal Notes of General Interest. a ‘The dinner party and reception given last night by the Postmaster Genoral and Mrs. Wanamaker in honor of the President and Mrs. Harrison was 4 brilliant success. Their home, where at every turn something novel and pleasing meets the ove, “was lavishly deco- rated with fine palms and the choicest towers. ‘There were magnificent roses, great bunches of purple and white lilacs and orchids filling the vases in each room. The dinner of twenty- cight covers was laid in the picture gallery, where a larger company could be seated than was possible in the dining room. A table with the appointmenzs of a fine picture gallery as a background is not often seen and really mado a splendid picture itself. The lengthy expanse of damask was broken by a center- piece of white lilacs and purple orchids, ar- ged in the silver epergne. ‘Two smalle Ver mirrors at exch end had heart-shaped rings of white orchids and ferns around them anda vase in the center filled with lilacs. The tall silver flagons at the extreme ends were filled with green and while ferns. All the “cloth was strewn over with delicate sprays of gracilium ferns. At the indies’ places there were corsage knots of Parma violets tied with a little bow of vielet satin ribbon. The Postmaster General es- corted Mrs. Harrison to the table and the President Mrs. Wanamaker. ‘The other guests wero the Vice President and Mrs. Morton, Secretary Blaine, Mre. Elkins, Mrs. Miller, ecretary ‘Iraey, Secretary and Mrs. Noble, Secretary and Mrs. Kusk, Senator and Mrs. Frye, Senator and Mrs. V Rep- resentative and Mrs. Hitt, Dr. and Mrs. Angell of Ann Arbor, Mich., Dr. Patton of Princeton, Mrs. Col.

Wana- maker, all of Philadelphia, Mrs. Wallace Kad- clife and Miss Morgan.’ Atter the company arose from the tabie, by one of the tri- umphs of household machinery ouly possible where it has been reduced to science, all traces of the dinner party were removed from the picture gallery inside of ten minutes, ‘The guests invited to the reception began to arri shortly after 9 o'clock, ‘They were received by Mrs. Wanamaker in the front drawing room. Mrs. Harrison stood next her with Mr. Wan- amaker, Mrs. Wanamaker wore another superb gown of silver gray satin. ‘The bodice bad ‘olds of silver-spangled tulle over the shoulders, coming down to a vest of silver passementerie. An edging of sable made a becoming finish. Diamond stars in the corsage and hair were worn. Mrs. Harrison's gown was of light yellow bro- cade, with an effective trimming of white lace, crystal nud pearl passementerie and sable. She carried a big bunch of pale yellow roses. ‘The President in comfortable niche near the portion of the second parlor held his levee. A few feet away from him the Chilean minister, Mr. Montt, ‘with another portiere background, held ano les# interesting recep- tion. "It isa rare coincidence when two such important figures in a great public drama meet in the most amicable way in the same drawing room the very day of the culminating pot in an international dispute. Another great actor in it, Secretary Blaine, remained after the dinner until nearly 10 o'clock, when, with Mrs. Blaine, who had joined him, he went home. ‘The latter at this reception made ber first public appearance this winter.

Yesterday a committeo of the congregation went over to Baltimore to make a request of Cardinal Gib- bous that the proposed change be not carried into effect. They returned much encouraged by the success of their visit and say that While no definite promises were made by the cardinal he received them pleasantly and said that their request would be taken under favorable consideration, leaving it to be in- ferred that things would be allowed to remain as ‘they have been and that they would still Lave their owa pastor and — parson- age adjoining the church. A meeting of the congregation of St. Augustine's will be held to- morrow evening in the basement of the church te hear the report of the committee and to consider the situation. Charles H. Hurdle died a little after noon to- day at Garfield Hospital. He was fifty-eight years old and was for many years one of the best knowp men of the class known as “sport- ing men” in the city. In the days of the vol- unteer fire department he was prominent as a fireman, and many stories are related of his prowess on the cecasions when rival companies engaged in hostilities. He had at various times been a saloon keeper. Some years ago he re- j formed and appeared on several occasions at the so-called “Dashaway” meetings. The late “Bud” Eagieston, under whose ex- hortation “Charlie” Hurdle signed the pledge, had been in the oid times one of Hurdle s close friends and they bad stood side by side in the ‘Northern Liberties” riot. “Charlie's” ex- ‘lence as a teetotaier, however, was not long. While he seemed to raiber prefer to be consid- ered as of the class known as “sports,” he possessed attributes which commanded respect and admiration. He was regarded as scrupu- lously honest and hy was very generous. The remains will be buried in Mt. Olivet cemetery. sania alboaws Death of Mrs. W. A. Carrington. Intelligence received yesterday by cablegram from Brazil announced the death of Mrs. Clara L Carrington, wife of the Rey. Wilmot A. Car- rington of Rio Claro, Brazil.

Carrington of the War Depart- ment, then recently ordained as @ missionary of the Presbyterian ehurch, was married in the prescnce of a large company at the New | York Avenue Church to Miss Clara L Emers daughter of Commander Geo. Emery of the G. A. R. Upon the conclusion of the service the young people started on the long journey to the scene of their life work. The first few months were spent at the city of Sao Paulo, in the study of the language of the country, and Mr. Carrington had recently gone to Kio Claro to take charge of a group of churches having that point asa center. Mre. Carrington leaves behind a babe of afew months. She will be mourned by a large circle of friends. Army Orders, ‘The order detailing First Lieut. Franeis H.
