Hearst's Home. ‘whe Pretty Luncheon Given Yesterday by Mrs. Swann—Personal Notes. 3g Everybody has reason to be gratified with the success of the exhibition yesterday of the art treasures in Mrs. Hearst’s house, and nobody more than the gentle mistress of the mansion herself, who was glad to ‘give the pleasure to the public and to aid the good object in view—replenishing the empty exchequers of the Home for Incur- ables. Mrs. Archibald Hopkins, president of the managers, was assisted by a number of ladies in welcoming and entertaining the throng of people which passed in and out of the house, from 11 o’clock in the morn- ing until late in the evening. In the picture gallery the interest of the sightseers was centered, as all the curios on exhibition were removed there. These, in addition to what is there permanently, made every foot of space worthy of the closest inspection. Down stairs in the Holland room, there were flower, bon-bon and refreshment ta- bles, presided over by Mrs. Lamont, Mrs. Schofield, Miss Voorhees, Mrs. Frank Riggs, Mrs. Henry May, Miss Mendonca, Miss Patten, the Misses Pauncefote, Miss Nancy Leiter, Miss Edla McPherson, Miss Wal- lack, the Misses Boardman, Miss Ho’ rd, Miss Hagner, Miss Kilbourn, the ‘Misses McKeever, Miss Reed of New York, who is visiting Mrs. Lamont; Mrs. Wiuthrop Gray, Miss Gray of New York, Miss Bessie Davis, Miss Aline Wilcox and Mrs. McGuire, who had general supervision. Miss Josephine Patten took chances for two bicycles which stood near the.entrance. All society seem- ed represented in the crowds, .which at times were too great for almost anything to be seen except the highest hung pictures. Mrs. J. Thomson Swann gave a luncheon yesterday, at which her guests included Mrs. Stewart, Mrs. Hammond, Mrs. Ffoulke, Mrs. Janin, Mrs. Cropper, Miss Weodbury, Mrs. Kenney, Mrs. S. S. Howland, Mrs. Mulligan, Mrs. Spaulding, Mrs. Bloomer, Mrs. Ward, Mrs. Crosby and Miss Phoenix. The table was prettily decorated with crim- son and white roses, and the name cards had dainty water color sketches on them. Mrs. J. V. Lawrence is visiting her mother, Mrs. E. D. E. N. Southworth, at Prospect Cottage. Mrs. George O. Barnes and her daughter, who have been spending the winter here, will leave for their home in Nlinois this yreek. Mrs. A. Behrend of K street will not be at home this Friday. On Tuesday afternoon at the parsonage of the West Street Presbyterian Church, Georgetown, the pastor, Rev. Walter Alex- ander, D. D., officiating, Miss Laura E. Volkman, the daughter of Sergt. Volkman, and Mr. Reuben C. Rowzee were married. Orly the immediate relatives and friends of the families were present. The bride wore white silk and carried white roses and lilies of the valley. Miss Tillie Stoff- regen, cousin of the bride, was bridesmaid, and Mr. J. P. Rowzee was best man. Af- ter the ceremony the party went to the residence of the bride’s parents, where a reception was held and a supper served, after which the happy couple left for New York. The wedding presents were numerous. Miss Clara Barton has sent out invita- tions for a reception on Monday, April 1, at 8:30, to meet her reiatives, Mrs. Clough and sister, Mrs. Daniel M. Robbins, and Miss Ficrence Robbins of Minnesota, Mr. and Mrs. Stephen E. Barton, Miss Myrtis Willmot Barton and Mrs. J. Sewall Reed of Boston. Mr. and Mrs. Rowan Bocne Tuley left last week for an extended visit with rela- tives and friends in Kentucky and Indiana. Mrs. M. T. Owen, from New York, a daughter of Mr. Horn, is visiting the fam- ily, 1813 Corcoran street. Miss Horn will entertain friends tonight from 9 to 12. —_.___ AMUSEMENTS. Academy of Music. —A double bill, com- pcsed of two popular operas, drew a large audience to the Academy of Music last night. In the “Cavalleria Rusticana” Mme. Tavary gave an impassioned interpretation of Santazza, singing and acting with great fervency and effect. Not less worthy was the Turidde of Mr. Guille, who was in the best of voice, and who thoroughly identified himself with the gay Lothario that he in- terpreted. Mr. Mertens made a good Alfio, and the chorus did some splendid work. The orchestra proved its worth, and gave the intermezzo with artistic effect. In “I Pagliacci” Guille was the central figure, and his impersonation of the clown was: fcrceful and artistic. He was rewarded with enthusiastic applause, and also re- ceived some handsome flowers. Mr. Mer- tens was an effective Tonio. Tonight “Faust” will be given, with Tavary, Guille, ‘Von Doenhoff and Mertens in the cast. Tomorrow night the opera will be “Tann- haeuser.” Saturday afterncon will be “Martha,” and Saturday night “The Cav- alleria Rusticana” will be repeated by re- quest, and in addition Verdi's “Rigoletto” will be given. ‘The Burnt Cork Club.—The entertainment by the Burnt Cork Club this evening at Odd Fellows’ Hall promises to be one of unusual merit. Two new sketches are to be presented by the club in black face, while the rest of the program will be made up of specialties and a dancing contest. Some of the very best juvenile dancers in the city have entered this contest, and a gold medal is to be given for the best ren- dition of the Saiior’s Hornpipe. Among the specialty artists are the Graham Brothers, in their eccentric musical act; the Del-Ray Brothers, in difficult acrobatic feats; Howard and Leigh, contortionists; Harry Shackelford, pathetic turn artist; Steve Clements, the well-known banjoist, and the famous country band, which has of late attracted a great deal of notice. After the entertainment, dancing will be on, and will last until a late hour. The Ice Carnival.—The Ice Carnival has proved such a success that the manage- ment has decided to continue it for an- other week. The committee met in com- pany C’s room while the dancing was go- ing on last night, and it was voted unani- mously to hold it for one week more. Col. Clay and his staff visited the carnival Tuesday evening, while last evening the Morton Cadets, in full uniform, enjoyed the hospitality of the Washington Light Infantry boys. Maj. Ross made a nice lit- tle speech of welcome, to which Capt. Saree! responded in a happy manner. is evening the Turn Verein, the first reg- iment Uniform Rank Knighis- of Pythias and the Potomac German-American Pleas- ure Society will be the guests of the W. L. i. C, Tomorrow night the sixth battalion, D. C. N. G., will be present, and a special matinee will be given Saturday at 2 p.m., for the purpose of giving the school chil- dren and their parents a chance to see the beautiful and unique sight. The Seidl Concert.—The concert tonight by Mr. Anton Seidl's orchestra bids fair to be as much of a success socially as it is sure to be musically. Mr. Seidl and his orchestra arrived this afternoon from New York city on a special train, and say they are prepared to render one of the most ar- tistic concerts of their career. The pro- gram, which will include Bach's overture “Divertimento,” orchestrated by Mr. Seidl; Mozart’s Symphony in % minor, in four numbers; Dvorak’s overture, “Nature,” for the first time in Washington; Wagner's Geed Friday Spell from “‘Parsifal;” Funeral March, from the Gotterdammerung, and the Vorspell and Isolde’s Death,from “Tris- tan and Isolde.” It can readily be seen that the foregoing menu of music is as diversified as could be asked iy the most fastidious or exacting. An interesting feature will be the Dvorak overture, “‘Nature,”” which has been heard in New York city on several occasions, and met the approval of the critics, but it has never been given in this city. Dvorak’s ccmpositions are always looked forward to with curiosity and pleasure. There are still some good seats to be had at Metze- rott’s music store. “The Tournament of Idylcourt.”—The Junior Christian Endeavor Society of the Eastern Presbyterian Church will give an attractive entertainment at Masonic Tem- ple tomcrrow evening, entitled “The Tour- nament of Idyicourt.” It will be a pretty combination of allegory, tableaux, chorus and dialogue. The entertainment is given to raise funds to pay off $300 pledged by- the society for the church debt. Miss Hill's Lecture.—Miss Julia B. Hill of Buffalo, who intends giving her lecture, “Beyond the Sea, or Modern Athens and Constantinople,” at the home of Miss Clara Barton tomorrow evening, has .vecently been made an honorary member of an in- stitution In Greece. This is in recognition of the bounty Miss Hill sent to Athens last summer—the proceeds of a lecture given by her for the benefit of the sufferers by the Greek earthquakes, Miss Barton is to in- troduce Miss Hill to her audience tomor- row evening. “Out in the Streets."—On Monday next, the management of Butler’s Bijou The- ater will present “Out in the Streets,” with ir. N. 8. Wood as the star. Farley, the hero in “Out in the Streets,” is con- stantly getting into trouble, but always manages to escape with every part of him intact. Magnificent scenery, plenty of breezy comedy and a company of artists insure a first-class entertainment to those who witness these realistic pictures of actual life, as it exists at our own doors, and of which we know so little. America’s Wonderland.—One of the most interesting lectures of the season will be delivered at the Universalist Church tomor- row evening by Mr. John P. Clum, under the auspices of the Sons and Daughters of Maine. His subject will be “America’s Wonderland,” and it will be illustrated by over 200 fine stereopticon views, giving a tour of a year'through the grandest and wildest scenery in the world. The lecturer has had many persanal experiences in the wild regions which he visited, and these he will tell with the lecture, it doubly interesting on account of the per- sonal acquaintance with the facts. The tickets are 25 cents and may be obtained at 707 G street northwest. Saas Tendered a Reception. The congregation of the Tenleytown M. E. Church last evening tendered a recep- tion to their pastor, Rev. E. H. Smith, in celebration of his return from the Balti- more conference. The musical and literary numbers were rendered by the following: Misses Gertrude Burlingham, May Thomp- son, Minnie Collins, Florence Thompson, Nannie Shoemaker and Irene Williams and Mr. John Simpson, jr., Mrs. Julia Simpson and Master Earl Sonnermann. Mr. John Simpson, sr., welcomed the pastor, who re- sponded appropriately. Refreshments clos- ed the program. ‘The Gas Escaped. There was a very curious accident last evening in the building No. 612 Pennsyl- vania avenue, which might have had se- rious results. The store part of the build- ing is occupied by W. G. Orr, the crockery dealer. In some way an unlighted gas jet in the cellar had been left turned on, and in a short timé the building was filled with the escaping gas. The matter was reported to the police about 9 o'clock, but the pro- prietor of the store had gone to his home in Laurel, and the clerk who had the key could not be found. The upper floors are occupied as lodgings by two families, and several people, one of them a woman, who was confined to her bed by iliness, and could not be moved, were almost suffocated by gas. Efforts were made to find some of the employes of the gas company, in order” to have the supply cut off from the side- walk, but for some reason none could be found, and no one seemed willing to take the responsibility of breaking in the front door by force. 1t was after midnight when the clerk was located, and a patrol wagon was sent for him in haste to bring the key and turn off the gas. i Broke Her Neck. Ellen Grant, an aged colored woman, met with a fatal accident about 11:30 o'clock last night at the house of Mrs. A. V. Coombs, No. 1511 6th street northwest, where she was employed as a domestic. She was on her way from an upper floor to the basement, and just after leaving the landing on the first floor she fell head- long to the basement and broke her neck. Dr. Thomas Miller was called in, but he could do nothing, as the old woman was dead.
