Burbank Potatoes, THE SOCIAL WORLD. The Last State Dinner at the White House. Mra. Perkins’ Pleasant Reception—¥~. merous Person: Notes. President and Mrs. Cleveland last night, et the third and last state dinner of the season, entertained the judiciary, inviting to meet that body members of the Senate and Hotse judiciary committees and a few personal friends. It was a red dinner. The table had round and oval placques of scar- let tulips dotting its length, and the gen- erally rosy effect was heightened by having red tapers in the candelabras. The mantels were also banked in scarlet tulips, and the cheerful coloring looked especialiy well after the little touch of wintry atmosphere the guests tasted on their way to the man- sion, In the east room, the great massing of palms and foliage plants in the east window was heightened by the number of red, white and blue lights gleaming amid the green. Above it all shone a star equally radiant with color. The same use of the electric lights made the banking of foliage plants new effect and one much admi-ed. The President and Mrs. Clevcland and| Miss Cleveland were in the east room at 7:15, and a few minutes past the half hour the company was seated at dinner. Mrs. Cleveland had a touch of red in the new gown she wore, which was a revival of | old-fashioned colors and fashions. The full | skizt did not train. The underskirt was of | a deep red satin, edged with a border of ; marten and an overskirt of black velvet, also edged with fur, was raised slightly at, each side. The bodice was covered with | heavy white lace, the upper edge borde>ed | with fur, and the yoke of thin black net had | insertion strips of the fur. The gloves worn were black and short-wristed. In he> hair, which was dressed low, was a black twisted | ribbon with a butterfly bow and a diamond | star worn just above the forehead. Mrs. Fuller wore white moire, Mrs. Field, | magenta moire; Mrs. Brewer, ruby velvet; Mrs. Harlan, black satin; Mrs. Jackson, black satin; Mrs. Shiras, black velvet; Mrs. Manning, white moive antique; Mrs. Brown, light brocaded satin; Mrs. Stanley Mat- thews, white moire; Mrs. Tracey, white moire, brocaded in rainbow stripes; Mrs. Oates, white lace, with green velvet bows: | Mrs. Faulkner, black veivet, with yellow moire cape revers on the bodice; Mrs. Hoar, white satin; Miss Thurber, white satin and lace; Mra. Lindsay, light brocade, with old | rose satin; Mrs. Crook, black silk; Mrs. Pugh, black velvet; Mrs. Sicard,white moire antique; Miss Cleveland, | Mrs. Sayers, maize-colored mauve moire and | satin, point Pearl trimmings.
