Palais Royal, @ AND ELSVENTH STREBTS. On Monday, June 4, will pccur a most important sale of Dress Goods, Laces and Ready-to-wear Suits. Though these goods are in every instance superior the prices asked are to be re- markably low—the lowest yet quoted in the country for equal qualities. The explanation: The “dull times” are causing a de- mand for medium and low=- priced goods rather than the most expensive, and thus importers and manu- facturers of the latter are being forced to lower their prices. $1 Check Silks For 75° Prices. We're anxious: to do some big selling this month, sufficiently large to completely clear out our stock of Matting, Reed and Rattan Furniture, Carpets, &c.

GOSSIP OFF FOR SUMMER OUTINGS It must be that the hard times has some- thing to do with the scarcity of wedding arnouncements. At this season they ought to be as plentiful almost as the roses, but the invitations to events in this city are so far very few in number. In New York this State of things does not seem to hold at all, for society is revelling in accounts of gor- eous trosseau and other bewildering items of the early stages of matrimony, and the nuptials occasions of both the city and country are bound to have appreciative audiences. Of two recefitly announced en- gagements, only one bride has signified the near approach of her wedding day. Miss Ef™fie Burritt and Mr. Harry Martin will be married the first week in July, it is under- steod, and they will go down to the moun- tain home of the latter in North Carolina, for the summer. Hundreds of friends in this city will speed them with good wishes and follow their future career with interest. The wedding day of Miss McKim and Mr. Rathbone has not yet been announced, but it is understood will not long be deferred, and the future home of the couple will be at Colorado Springs, where Mr. Rathbone built himself a delightful home not long since, and where he is thought very highly of by all the lents, many of whom, like himself,chose the place because of the bene- fits derived from the climate. Representative Grosvenor and family will be at their home at Athens, Ohio, for the wedding of Miss Louise Grosvenor to Mr. Leete of Portsmouth, Ohio. The ceremony takes place on the 26th of June, and Miss ‘Thompson will be the maid of honor. The bride-elect and her mother left for home on Wednesday last, and the former will be | the recipient of a good deal of social at- tention from her home friends before her wedding day. Mr. and Mrs. Milo V. Bailey have issued i. vitations for the marfiage of their daugh- ter, Bertie Sprague, to Mr. Paul Vernon Bunn, Tuesday, June 12, at 12 o'clock, ¥irst Presbyterian Church. Miss Carrie Houghton and Mr. Walter T. Wright will be married at St. An- | drew’s Church, Wednesday evening next, Miss Ryan and Mr. Faherty will be mar- ried at the Church of the Immaculate Con- ception on Wednesday morning. Mrs. Gordon has returned from Atlanta, where she visited at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Burton Smith. Miss Gor- don is now the guest of Mrs, Colquitt, and will be the maid of honor at the marriage of Miss Laura Colquitt and Mr. Howard on June 14. Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris left yesterday afternoon for New York to meet her mother, Both ladies will go to West Point for the early summer, as Miss Rose Mary Sartoris is as much devoted to it as Mrs. summer for years past. There is no ques- tion but that Mrs. Sarteris thoroughly en- joyed her two months’ stay here, for she received so much attention on all sides and could have been, if she were so minded, quite a belle. The number of eligible men who cartied their hearts on their coat sleeves, so far as évident attentions were concerned, showed no diminution to the last Gay of her stay. In ail human probability she returns next fall to make this a per- manent winter home. Minister and Mrs. Lazo Arriaga have de- cided to spend the early part of the sum- mer at the seashore, and later will take their family to Capon Springs. Miss Virginia Butler has left town to make a visit with her married sister in Brooklyn. In company with a party of friends she will rail for Europe on the 23d of June and spend the most of the next three months in travel.

Key, “Mr. Totten, Mr. Redfern, Mr. War- ren Smith, Mr. Gordon Mr. Heap. The Brazilian minister and family are much interested in the improvements going om in their future legation home, Connecti- cut avenue and N street, and will not leave ‘the city for the Adirondacks till the last of )the summer travelers. ‘Mrs. Isaac Henderson and Mrs. Frye have returned to Washingtor after a six weeks’ trip in California.

The house was profusely decorated with flowers, and filled from 3 to @ with guests from Washington, Hyatts- ville and Highlands. Miss Baukhages, in a pretty gown of yellow crepe, presided over the table in the dining room, where the cen- tral decoration of white roses was flanked by great bowls of strawberries set in their own leaves. The tea table was set in a corner of the porch, where a natural screen of honeysuckle and red roses in bloom made an effective background. Miss Daisy Bart- lett, in pink silk mull, served tea. Among the guests from Washington were Dr. Lit- tlewood and Mrs. Gibson White, Mr. and Mrs. Mills, Mr. and Mrs. Brock, Mrs. Scott, ‘Mr. . Miss Van Doren, Mrs. M or, and Mrs. Traiazor.

Church at Hotel Fredonia last ev was a grand success. The costu™:es ware of the most ancient and unique designs and very be- eoming, and the vocal solos, by Miss Mattie Gray of the church choir, and recitations by | Notice of Miss Sweet were enthusiastically received. The supper table was a reminder of the good old days of our grandmothers, and the hot biscuits, ginger bread and goose- berry jam were delicious.
