American beauty roses and pink orchids were used throughout the drawing rooms and halls, and in the dining room, where from a flower-decked table supper was served all evening. In addition to the floral display, the house had many inter- esting features of decoration in the variety of embroideries, rare skins of wild animals and curios collected by Mr. Noyes in his travels in various parts of the world. The library had an unique feature in the large collection of Japanese pictures, wood cuts and illustrated books, the work of Hokusai, Kasai Korin, and a long line of the famous artists of Japan. Upstairs on the first landing of the wide staircase the Chinese, Japanese, Persian, Turkish and Indian embroideries proved arother fascinating spot, at which the guests lingered. An orchestra played throughout the evening. Mr. and Noyes were assisted in entertaining th friends by Miss Noyes and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas C. Noyes. Among the guesis were many prominent in congressional, official, diplomatic and society circh but the occasion was cially enjoyable in bringing together a large number of the old resident families of the District.

The Body of James Scott, Alias James Hunter, Still Unclaimed. Inspector Hollinberger of the detective corps is endeavoring to find friends of the man who died in the fourth precinct police Station a week ago from the effects of ex- posure and hunger. The dead man was known to the police as James Scott, but Kis real name is James Hunter. This in- formation was obtained-from letters found on him when his body was taken to the morgue. As printed in The Star at the tme of the man’s death, he is about fifty years old and had spent one night in the lodging room. Tuesday night about 7:15 o'clock he staggered along E street on his Way to the station, and persong who saw him thought he was under the influence of liquor. Wher he reached the front of the station he reeled and fell from sheer ex- haustion and hung over the iron railing in a dangerous position. A weman who saw him called to the police and told them of the man’s position. The officers at first thought the man was drunk. They Ified him from the iron fence and took hid inte the warm room, where he soon died. = condition was so serious that he was m able to tcl: the officers of the whereabouts of his friends or relatives. After his dea.n the body was put in the patrol wagon ard sent to the morgue. There it was held for identification. It would have been buried in a pauper’s grave had not Undertaker J. William Lee had it remcved to his establishment. It is still there awaitirg the arrival of friends. From letters found on the body the police think the man was a member of the Ma- sonic order. On his person was a slip of paper contain- ing the following: “If anything serious should happen to me please write Dodwell, Carlill & Com- pany, ship agents, Hong Kong, China, and jet them know what has taken place to me.
