Senator Quay’s family are now occupying their newly built home on K street, which is a handsome addition to the fine resi- dences in its locality. While there are many little touches yet to be given the interior, it is practically finished. The effect is very bright, but soft toned, and the furnishings are very elegant. The front drawing room is modestly finished in art shades of blue, and pinkish hues dominate in the second parlor. Miss Quay is down south recuperating after an attack of ill- ness. Judge and Mrs. John Davis and Miss Davis will sail for Europe the coming Wed- nesday. Judge Davis has been in rather poor health the past winter, and the trip ts primarily undertaken for his benefit.

The parlors were crowded all the evening, and the Ight evening dresses of the young ladies, with their happy faces, added quite as much beauty to the occasion as the flowers from the florists. The program was most informal: A piano solo, by Miss Lizzie Test, recitations, by Miss Annie Gorman and Miss Dorothy Hughes of the Ninth Street ¥.; two vocal solos, by moat Mollie McKee of the Metropolitan Y., and a solo by Miss Moffatt of the Union Y, and a reading by Miss Pauline Leavens of Chi- cago concluded the program.

The report of Surgeon General Wyman for this week shows that cholera is de- creasing in Austria-Hungary,and that it has entirely disappeared from Galicia and Prus- sian Silesia.
