Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Chatara of he ington will spend the summer in Europe. They will sail on July 6. Miss Charlotte Willams of Raltimore will be with them | for several weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Brainard H. Warner have | issued invitations to a reception at their | home, in Kensington, Md., on Tuesday of | next week, to meet Vice President Steven- son. Count Eugene S. K. Mitkiewicz and Miss Mary Ethel Small, daughter of Mr. Charles Welis Small of Melvale, Baltimore county, Were married last night at the residence of Rev. C. Ernest Smith, rector of St. Michael and All Angels’ Protestant Episcopal Church, Baltimore. The couple came over from Washington late in the evening, accompanied by four other persons. After spending an hour or more in procuring the license the party drove te Rey. Mr. Smith's residence, where they arrived about 10 o'clock. + In reply to the questions of the clergyman the count sald he been married twice before, but that both his wives were dead. | This was vouched for by the count’s ac- quaimtances who accompanied him. It was stated that none of Miss Small's relatives were present at the marriage. Miss Smail, tt was also stated, has been living in | Washington for some time. The count gav Union station and left on a late train for New York. Miss Estelle Tremaine of Brooklyn, N. Y., the niece of Capt. Chester of the Naval Academy, who prevented the flag to the | graduating class last week, is visiting her jaunt, Mrs. Caldwell, 1759 Q street morth- west. ‘ The announcement of the probable en-/| |his address as Washington Circle, Wash- j ington city. | After the wedding the party drove to g2gement of Mrs, Nellie Grant Sartoris and Gen. H. Kyd Douglas, adjutant general of the state of Maryland, is not surprising to those who have been among the intimate acquaintances of the former. but it would create a great sensation if the marriage ever should take place. A good deal of live- ly canvessing was done the last few days emongst a number of persons who had op- portunites to watch the trend of events while both the parties were in this city to | get the truth of the rumor which has been Jin circulation the last three weeks. Mrs. | Sartoris, however, has never indicated that she was ergaged to the gallant Marylander, | or anybody else, but she is not a woman given to taiking about herself. It may be interesting Information just at this time for the world at large to know that while Mrs. | Sartoris enjoys a comfortable income, some- | | thing like thirty thouscnd a year, it ceases lif she marries again, by the will cf her father-in-law, who provided an ample com- petency both for her and her three chil- dren. Mrs. Sartoris has some very decided views on the matrimonial state, and those who have had most intimacy with her for the last year are of the opinion, while she | has not said so ct ali, that she will not | marry again. It is also said as the latest | bit of gossip im this direction that Gen. Douxlas has secured accommodations for Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Sartoris and Miss Rose | Mary Sartoris at a well-known mountain resort in Maryland. By. if Mrs. Grant and | her daughter will be able to spend even a | part of the summer at half the places at | which it is already announced they Pave | secured rooms, cottages, etc., they will have | rather an active time keeping up = thelr engagements.

Hearing on the Proposed Bill Today by the Commissioners. ‘The Commissioners this morning gave a hearing to the incorporators of the National | Gas and Electric Light, Heat and Power Company of the District of Columbia. This bill has been before the Commissioners for some time. At a previous hearing consider- able objection was made to one of the in- corporators, and the new bill has been drafted leaving his name out. Several pro- visions have been added to the bill—one providing for the price of electric light, which shall be scaled and diminished in the ratio that the present price for gas for the city of Washington is to bear to the price providel for in the bill, namely, 60 cents | ver 1,000 cubic feet. | A new section is edded to the bill pro- hibiting the company from selling or con- solidating with any other company. Representative Livingston pointed out the advantages of the bili to the Commission —_<—__. A Work of Art. Mr. A. Lisner, the proprietor of the Palais Royal, has just issued invitations to a num- | ber of the artists of the city calling their attention to a work of art which he has placed on exhibition on the second floor of his establishment at the corner of 11th and streets. It is the famous painting of Astley D. M. Cooper, entitled “The Morn- ing of the Crucifixion.” The size of the | canvas is thirteen feet in height and eleven in width. The picture contains twenty-six figures, those in the foreground being over life size. The scene represented is the xr. | rival on Calvary and before the crucifixion. The figure of Christ ts six feet high, end the head of Christ ie an entfrely origi conception of the artist. The female fi ures are the three Marys and Martha. The dramatic theme is treated by the artist, who is an American, with realistic effect. ‘The exhibition will continue for one week. pea assent Nearby Pensions Granted.
