RAFF’S ENTERPRISE 1239-1241 lth StreetsS. B> It ACD 9d cx THE ,.WORLD,...OF SOCIETY The Penitential: Season is Drawing to a Close. Easter Gayeties Will Follow Naturally After the Briltiant Winter— aus -Brides and Grooms. ‘The past week has been full of events of both an intellectual and social turn. To- morrow is Passion Sunday, then comes Palm.Sunday;' and following that Easter, so that Lent has enly two weeks more to its credit. It has slipped away comfortably enough, and there ‘has-been little or no at- tempt to introduce in it the usual diver- sions of the season. Unless entirely sub rosa, dancing, has. been-absolutely tabooed —excepting for the Mi-Careme ball at the British embassy. The last two weeks of Lent, are always quiet, so that nothing out of the usual order need be expected. So far, announcements of events are few and far between, and everybody seems satisfied that it is so. ‘The impression is general that the Easter revival will be all that the most sanguine can anticipate. Teas will form a no small part of the program and dinners and lunch- eons ‘will flourish. A great deal is expected from the weddings for which the prepara- tions are going on so steadily now. Noon weddings,are Hkely.-te.. <= the fashion, as sunshine, pee may confidently ex- ected, has nd small meee in throwing a lo over the whole proceedings. It also gives..an opportunity for the display of spring millinery, which is a positive joy all by itself and one which really ought to be encouraged. The dances of Easter week are likely ‘to be almost entirely for the younger set, not yet formally in society, although having quite as good a time. The visiting college glee clubs will be the star attractions of both teas and dances. Just at present enjoyment is more antici- patory than otherwise, and consists largely in looking forward to wedding announce- ments or discussing the details of those of of which, the porne. has already been made Or the weddings certain to take place as after Easter festivities are those of Miss Hopkins and. Mr. Wylie, Miss Fendall and Mr. John Wendell of New York, Miss Cox and Mr. Whiting, Dr. McGuire and Miss Rundlett, Miss Andrews and Mr. Estes, and Miss Letter and Mr. Curzon of Eng- jand. A beautiful group of brides they will make, and every wedding day will be of intense social interest. With these certain- ties and the two or three possibilities of announcements for June evenis, the spring nuptial season 1s really one of extreme interest. Mrs. Brice gave a lunchecn yesterday to friends cf -her daughters and son,Mr. Kirk- patrick who is also nt home. T-venty- oh covers were laid, and the hospitality enjoyed by thirteen young maidens and thirteen men. ‘American Beauty roses most appropriately made the centerpiece of the table around which this interesting com- pany gathered, and the girls went home with great corsage bouquets of violets, and the men with boutonnieres of the same fa- vorite blossom. Miss Leiter and Miss Cam- eron were among the young ladies present. The Brice family will spend the Easter sea- son in New: York.at their house there. Mrs. Murphy, wife of Senator Murphy, and Miss Julia Murphy went to New York Grant, ex-mayor of New York, is made. It has been known among the more inti- mate acquaintances of the family the past fortnight, and the bride-elect is one of the “three senatorial brides living within stone’s thraw of each other,” mentioned in @ recent article in The Star. Mr. Grant has been most devoted in his attentions to this handsome and accomplished young lady for a long time, and especially the past winter, when he has been here =e once a week. Mrs. and Miss Murphy shopping in New York, and will then oa up to Troy to spend a while at their house there. The exact date for the wedding has not been settled, but it will be in June, as previously intimated in the “‘tale of spring romances,” and may be the first large wed- ding in the new St. Matthew's Church, or among the very last prominent ones in the old St. Matthew's. It is anticipated that the new church will be ready for occu- pancy in June. The wedding tour will be a trip to Europe, where Miss Murphy has never been, although her parents have. As all the rest of the Murphy children are in school, the Senator and his wife will re- main here until nearly the end of June. They will summer at Saratoga. Baltimore is enjoying an international romance also. Miss Nancy Hurst, daugiater of Mr. John E. Hurst, will be married in June to Lieut. Alfredo Capellini of Flor- ence, Italy. The wedding will probably take place at Mr. Hurst’s country seat. Lieut. Capellini comes from a distinguish- ed Italian family. His paternal uncle was in command of the Italian war vessel Palestro, which was blown fip in an en- gagement during the Prusso-Italian war in 1866, and her commander went down with his ship. His nephew followed the uncle in a love for the navy, and is now lieutenant on the Italia, from which vessel he has obtained a long leave of absence for his wedding. He was stationed on the warship Bausan during the naval rendez- vous at ton Roads in April, 1303. It was there the young couple first met. He spent the ext year in South American waters and returned to Italy last year. Miss Hurst went abroad last year with her mother and sister and. again met the young Heutenant. Their friendship ripened into love and then came, the marriage engage- ment. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hénderson entertain- ed at dinner last night the Austrian min- ister and Countess von’ Hengelmuller, the Be'gian minister, Mr. and Mrs. John Hay, Mr. and Mrs. Thecdore Roosevelt, Mr. and Mrs. de Peyser, Mr. and Mrs. Boardman, Mr. and Mrs. Lothrop Bradley, Col. and Mrs. Winthrop, Mrs. Bugher, Mrs. a F.

Vote Taken in the British House of Commons, In the British house of commons yester- day Mr. James Henry Dalziel, advanced liberal member for the Kirkcaldy @istrict, moved «he adoption of a resolution to give home rule to England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Mr. John Redmond, the Parnellite, who sits for Waterfcrd city, opposed the resolu- tion, declaring that it meant the shelving of Irish home rule until the house of lords shall have been abolished. Mr. John Dillion supported the resolution. Mr. A. J. Balfour, the conservative lead- er, appealed to the house not to make itself ridiculous by voting in favor of a policy that was exactly the opposite of that which had built up the great empires of- the world.
