Friends Will Gather at Chevy Chase for a Tea — Personal Mention. Miss Morton does not expect to leave here for the west until early in June. The Misses Hamlin will go to Marion, Mass., when the warm weather comes, and expect to have Mrs. Carlisle their guest during a part of the summer, as last year. Representative and Mrs. Newlands will give a tea this week at their home at Chevy Chase. Miss Newlands, who has been seen a little at social events during this spring, will make her formal debut next winter. Gen. and Mrs. Moore will go to Atlantic City for a while before closing their house for the summer. Mrs. James L. Barbour and Miss Annie Barbour have gone to Atlantic City and will remain there all this month. Mrs. Barbour has been in poor health lately, and the change was necessary for her. The family will summer at Nantycket. The engagement of Mr. Martin Ramsey, son cf Admiral and Mrs. Ramsey, and Mi: Katherine Merrick, daughter of the late Richard Merrick, has been a pleasant mat- ter of comment among their friends the past few days. The wedding day has not yet been determined. Miss Abigail Dodge, known in literary circles as “Gail Hamilton,” is seriously ill at the residence of Mrs. James G. Blaine, on Dupont Circle. Miss Dodge was stricix- en with paralysis, and although her condi- tion is not thought to be critical it is suf- ficiently serious to cause her relatives great concern. The stroke is said to be a mild one, as she has neyer lost consciousness and her mind is perfectly clear. Her phy- sician entertains the hope that she will ultimately recover. Miss Virginia E. Dade and Miss Nannie M. Dade have just returned from Rich- mond, Va., where their sister, Mrs. Mary Jackson Thornton, died on Friday lest. Mr, and Mrs. Arnoid Hague are going abroad for the summer, and will not, there- fore, occupy their villa at Newport. Col. Luther Caldwell and family and Mrs. W. P. Van Wickle of Q street are now in Paris and have taken a furnished house for the season. Mrs. Bledsoe, Desha Harman and Miss Irma Herman are visiting their reiatives, Col. and Mrs. A. W. Jobnscn, at their beautiful home at Fort Hamilton. The ninth birthday of Miss Edna Ander- son was pleasantly celebrated at her home, 1225 6th street northwest, on Wednesday, May 1. Games were played, after which supper was served to the little ones. Her presents were numerous and handsome. Among those present were Gertrude Con- dron, Marie Santns, Carrie and Agnes Bar- ker, Edith and Malcolm Auerbach, Mamie Kurnetzki, Charlie Osborn and Florence Hopwood. Miss Annie Loyd and Miss Estelle Foster will go this evening for a short stay at Virginia Beach, accompanied by Mrs. W. S. Walton of Minnesota. Mrs. Lillian Rozell Messenger is at pres- ent at Little Rock, called there by sickness of her mother. The East End Progressive Euchre Club was entertained by Mr. and Mrs. John R. Collette, at their residence, 66 R_ street northwest. The first prize for the lady players was won by Miss Lou H. Saville; for gentleman, Mr. Henry L. Frazier. Re- freshments being served, the entertain- ment concluded with music and dancing. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Saville, Mr. pnd Mrs. William M. Gibson, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Harley, Jack Barnes, William H. Gibson, Edward Milis, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. F. Mills, U. P. Laffitte, Henry L. Frazier, Clay G. Collette, Willie John- son, the Misses Grace, Lou and May Sa- ville, the Misses Annie L., Marie P. and Ruth G. Collette and Miss Bess Harley. The members of the Hedera Club gave their May ball last Thursday evening, and the affair was a decided success from every standpoint. About 300 people were present. This was the last and most successful dance of the season. On the floor commit- tee were Messrs. W. C. Burgess, H. A. Hepkins, J. Ray Adams and Geo. Dove, and on the reception committee were Misses Jennie Shomo, Clara Tufts, Annie Hutchinson, Clara Vermillion, Ella Ver- mifion, Reta Schroeder, Susie Schroeder, Emma Mudd, Margie Earnshaw and Sadie Whitacre, and Messrs. W. P. Hall, Chas. A. Corey, George Anderson, Carl Wells, Chas. H. Berkeley and Wm. Boswell. The next feature of entertainment to be given by the club will be a banquet on May 27 to celebrate its first anniversary, to be fol- lowed by an excursion. Miss Maude Stanley Twells, daughter of John 8. Twells, ex-consul to Naples, and Mr. Julian de Scipany Trenholm of Charles- ton, S. C., son of ex-Controller of the Currency William L. Trenholm, were mar- ried on Thursday last at the residence of the bride’s uncle, Mr. Clarke Merchant, Philadelphia. Owing to the fact that the bride’s family are in mourning the wed- ding was a quiet one, the invitations being limited to the relatives and a few intimate friends. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Dr. G. Woolsey Hodge, rector of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the Ascen- sion. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a handsome gown of white silk and carried a bunch of lilies of the valley. The bridesmaids were Miss Julia Tweils, the Misses Trenholm and Miss Merchant, and the ushers Mr. William Henry of Washington, Rutherford . C. Twells and Mr. Edward Hall and Mr. Al- exander Macbeth of New York. Mr. E. De Forest Simmons of New York was best man. The ceremony was followed by a wedding breakfast. : Miss Corinne Blackburn, who has spent the past year in Europe, has returned and has been here for a few days with Maj. and Mrs. Hall. She leaves today for Ken- tucky. There was a happy gathering of young people on Thursday evening last at the residence of Miss Katie Schneider, George- town Heights, the occasion being a banquet given by the ladies of the Lotus Literary and Pleasure Club, in honor of the gentle- men of the club and Mr. W. E. Leese. After partaking of the good things from the bountifully laden table, all adjourned to the parlor, where Miss Schneider enter- tained the company with a couple of num- bers on the violin. Among those present were Misses Webb, Koester, Leese, Katie and ‘Mamie Schneider, Clem and Loret‘o McGinness, and Messrs. Leese, Neely, Eck- loff, Fellinger, Schneider, Kengla and Young. Miss Nellie Randail of Woodside, Md., left Saturday evening in company with her brother, Mr. Charles F, Randall, for quite an extended trip, including New York, Albany and Boston. She will visit relatives in the latter city, returning at the end of @ month or six weeks. Some Big Fish Taken. Mr. Levi Woodbury has just returned from New Hampshire, his native state, where he enjoyed rare sport in waters among the Ossipee mountains. He, in company with Mr. G. W. Turney of Massa- chusetts, killed in five days eleven land- locked salmon, aggregating in weight 186 pounds; the smallest weighing ten and a half pounds, the largest nineteen pounds. Mr. Woodbury was high line until the last day, having a fourteen and a half pounder to his credit, when his friend raised him four and a half pounds by landing one of nineteen pounds. Mr. Woodbury claims that there is no record of a land-locked salmon taken with the rod that equals it in weight. The one that weighed fourteen and a half pounds gave Mr. Woodbury an hour and twenty minutes’ busy work in towing and being towed before he gave up, clearing the water five times in his wild rushes. > Her Leg Broken. Mrs, W. M. Sefton of No. 1837 14th street met with a sericus accident Saturday even- ing. Some boards had been laid on the sidewalk In front of No. 1320 T street, where an excavation was made by work- men.
