The Leiter-Carzon Match Arranged by Cupid in the Old-Time Way— Personal Mention. Society is rapidly disintegrating. Depart- ures are getting numerous, and, while many faces are turned homeward, others are leaving here only temporarily, for a little change of scene. The sadness among the women folks in the families which are congressional no longer is a very real arti- cle. Whatever opinion the heads of the households may have, the ladies are al- Ways sorry to leave Washington when their brief day of social glory has come to an erd. The pace at the last of the gayeties was of the sort which, if it does not kill, wearies beyond description. Is there any reason, therefore, that those who can are taking advantage of the chance to get away and rest themselves amid more novel surroundings? Mrs. Don Cameron started south last night with a party of young people, in- cluding Miss Hay, and her guests will rusticate with her on the Cameron plan- tation. Mrs. Cameron has been here very little the past winter, and lately has been nursing a sick relative out in Ohio. No couple has left Washington at the end of Congress of whom more delightful things have been said in parting than ex- Senator and Mrs. Manderson. They are in New York for a ten-days’ stay and will go home to Omaha, where a lucrative er tion awaits Mr. Manderson. Senator Murphy, with his daughter and guest, Miss De Freest of Troy, went down to Fort Monroe last night. The Misses Brice received yesterday af- ternoon and had many callers. Mrs. Brice, feeling greatly fatigued, did not come down. The family intend being in New York later on this month. Ex-Senator and Mrs. Dolph went out to Portland, Ore., last wegk to rejoin their children. Mr. and Mrs. Outhwaite have obligations keeping them here quite as binding as the former’s congressional duties used to be. They are the guests of honor at dinners night after night, among their round of ac- quaintances. Tomorrow night Mr. and Mrs. Seaton Perry give them a dinner. They wili hardly get away much before the date of their sailing for the old world, March 20. Ex-Senator and Mrs. McPherson are up in northern New York visiting relatives, and will be gone about ten days. It always takes two or three afternoon tea gatherings before a bit of news gets thoroughly distributed, all the little bare spots nicely filled in and the whole idea well furnished and properly presented. It goes without saying that it would be simply impossible for two feminine heads to get together nowadays and not dis- cuss the Leiter-Curzon engagement. As the courtship could not be watched here the girls have sifted it down to get the ro- mance. And they have succeeded. There is more reason than it was ever supposed in saying that this marriage is likely to be the happiest of international alliances, for the handsome young lady and the honora- ble M. P. fell in love four years ago. Then the present Lord Scarsdale was an humble minister, and being a second son, his in- heritance of the title was a contingency not to be thought of at all, and so could not possibly have added any glamor to the love making of his son. More than that, the happy couple, who are receiving con- gratulations from friends all over the world, were really engaged a year ago, in the good old American style—hearts first. Mr. Curzon will only be in this country about gen days when he comes next month to clalm his bride, and almost immediately after the wedding they will return to Eng- land. Mr. Curzon’s* duties in parliament will not permit him a longer stay, even for such an important event as his wed- ding. The Rev. W. H. Lester and family of Valparaiso, Chile, S, A., are at the Avon. Mr. Lester has been engaged in missionary work in South America for a number of years and has returned to the United States on his second furlough. The marriage of Mr. Harvey E. Galpin of Falls Church, Va., and Miss Emma &. Blakeney took place at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. James ‘I. Blakeney, by the Rev. Dr. Green. he bride and groom entered the parlor to the strains of Lohengrin, rendered by Miss Sallie Shreve, preceded by two little tots, Miss Juanieta Mann and Miss Eva, Allen, flower bearers. The bride as attired in white silk and lace, and carried a bouquet of bride roses. The little ones were gown- ed in white swiss and flowing ribbons and carried fancy baskets of flowers. After congratulations the company repaired to the dining room, where a sumptuous repast was served. Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. James T. Blakeney, Mr. and Mrs. James F. Blakeney, Mrs. W. Westcott, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. O. Shreve, Mr. and Mrs. Jessie Mann, Mrs. James Grier, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. S. Mann, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. S. Shreve, Mr. and Mrs. Chas, Alier, Mrs. James Dodge, Mrs. A. Jones, Mrs. Dickson, Mrs. Whittington, Mrs. Holland, Mrs. Moore, Mrs. Maxwell, Mrs. Shannon, Mrs. R. Grier, Mrs: C. B. Alien, Mrs. Posey. Mr. and Mrs. Galpin will be at home to their friends afger March 10 at 1433 Yth street. Tuesday afternoon Mr. R. O. Holt of this city and Miss Katherine M. Curd of Rich- mond were married at the home of the bride’s mother, -Mrs. Virginia M. Curd. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Dr. Moses D, Hoge and afterward a reception was tendered the intimate friends of the ccntracting parties, and the couple «left for an extended trip north, followed by the good wishes of a host of friends and the customary shower of rice. Wishing to pay Friday calls Mrs. Joel Hillman will not receive tomorrow. Misn Nellie Simmons, daughter of Mr. Richard Simmons of Baltimore, was mar- ried last night to Mr. William T. Thrasher of Washington. The ceremony was per- formed in Monument Street Methodist Episcopal Church in that city by the pas- tor, Rev. A. J. Gill. Every pew in the church was filled with. the relatives and friends of the bride and groom. The ush- ers were Messrs. Warren S. Seip, Emil Heitmuller, Philip A. Rosendorn and Gus- tavus Pfeiffer. Mr. and Mrs. Thrasher left immediately after the ceremony on a trip to New York and Boston. The sewing circle auxiliary to the board of lady managers of the Garfield Memorial Hespital will be entertained by Mrs. W. C. Hill, Welling place, University Park, to- morrow at 11 a.m. Countess Divonne and her children are now in New York preparatory to sailing for Europe on Saturday. An enjoyable time was spent by the mem- bers of the P. P. Euchre and Social Club on Tuesday evening last. The meeting was held at the residence of Miss Cora Thomp- sen, 462 Maryland avenug, who, with Mr. Elmore, succeeded in carrying off the first prizes. ‘The consolation prizes were award- ed to Miss L. Hess and Mr. J. Fleming Among those present were: Dr. and Mrs. A. B, Shekell, Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Moor. som, Mr. and Mrs. J. Fleming, Dr. and Mrs, S. A. Ransom, Mr. and Mrs, J. Bundy, jr., Mrs. C.

The German consul at New Orleans, Count von Meysenberg, has demanded of the mayor of Gretna,oppesite New Orleans, the arrest of all those who participated in the attack on the German steamer Marko- mannia Saturday. He also gave notice that the facts connected with the outrage would be laid before the German ambassador at Washington. A party of negroes were taken in a tug over to Gretna yesterday, and, under the protection of the United -States marshal, backed by the injunction from the United States court prohibiting any interference with the work, unloaded the steamer Niag- ara. The white laborers at Gretna are still ugly and will fight the injunction against them in the courts, ard say that they will not allow negroes to unload or load vessels in Gretna, no matter what the cost. —— ‘The Mexican war steamer La Libertad {rem Vera Cruz was towed into Port Eads Tuesday, coaled and went up to New Or- peeneeniee her own sieam. All well on AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN. Local Happenings of Interest Told in Brief Paragraphs. The movement toward the erection of a monument to the “Star Spangled Ban- ner’s” author, Francis Scott Key, who formerly lived here, and whose old man- sion near the Aqueduct bridge is one of the historical sights of the town, is assuming practical proportions in Frederick, where his body lies. Eighteen hundred dollars to- ward the necessary fund have been coliect- ed. So far, the money subscribed has come principally from the pockets of Maryland- ers, but the interest is now spreading among the several states, and help will be soon given by school children, who have been appealed to by the patriotic pro- moters. Four hundred dollars were added to the fund last week in Frederick through the presentation of an operetta. Key‘s monument at present is only a marble slab, three or four feet high, and very unpretentious. It is over his grave in Mt. Olivet cemetery. The projected shaft will be worthy of the man, whose compo- sition is the favorite patriotic song of the nation, It is proposed to lay the foundation of the monument next September. on the oc- casion of the sesquicentennial of Frederick. He Escaped. In the alley to the rear of 32d street be- tween Prospect and Na womangvas struck in the mouth with great force by a tough last night, who then made his escape. Officer Bradley gave chase on hearing the woman’s screams, but did not succeed in overtaking him. He went over fences with the agility of a cat. Notes.
