THE WORLD OF SOCIETY A Brilliant Wedding at an Historic Vir- ginia Home. Mr. Barrett Weds a Daughter of a Noted Old Dominion Family—Debat Tens, Dinners and a Luncheon. The Secretary of State today issued invi- tations to all the members of the diplo- matic corps to take breakfast with him at his residence at noon on New Year day. This is in accordance with a long estab- lished custom. The foreign representatives call first at the White House on New Year day to pay their respects to the President and then proceed in a body to the residence of the Secretary of State, where they are entertained at breakfast. No wedding in Danville, Va., was ever cel- ebrated with more elaborate perfection of details than distinguished that of Miss Janie Sutherlin Smith of this city to Mr. Edward Ware Barrett, Washington correspondent of tre Atlanta Constitution, which was solemn- ized last right in tne historic Sutherlin man- sion. The ceremony was performed at 9 o'clock by Bishop Wallace W. Duncan of the M. E. Church South. The bride’s mother died when Miss Smith was but three years of age and she was reared by her grand- father, the late Maj. William ‘T. Sutherlin, ginians, and there where she is best known she has ever been an object of universal admiration. The palatial residence, which py the courtesy of 11g owner was the home of President Davis in the last days of the war, and as such was the last White House of the confederacy, was decorated in harmony with the giad Christmas season, smilax, ivy and holly predominating with palms, ferns, carna- tion yriads of roses of various tints. T in attendance, the aids wearing ivory satin gowns with Antoinette fichus of chiffon. Miss Gray Morhead of North Carolina was the d of honor. The bride's dress was heavy hite satin duchess; the bodice of chiffon and ‘satin was closed at the throat with a deep fall of Brussels lace. The bridal veil was held in place by a superb diamond and pearl sunburst, the gift of the groom. The lride carried a shower bouquet of white violets and lilies of the valley. Mr. Gould Rarrett was the grocm’s best man. After the ceremony the wedding supper was serv- ed, and at 12 o'clock Mr. and Mrs. Barrett left for Washington and an extended tour to the Pacific coast. Among those attending the wedding were most of the Georgia con- gressional delegation, a large party from Atlanta and Augusta, Congressmen Swan- son of Virginia, Settle of North Carolina and Allen of M pi and a large number 6 shington correspondents. “The marriage of Miss Mamie Levi, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Lev!, which took place at the bride's home in Ue Droit Park last evening, was a brilliant affair. The bride entered the room with her mother, and to the strains of “The Wedding March” passed through the aisle of palms to the altar, where they were met by the groom, Mr. Arthur Lewis, and his hest man, Mr. G. Haigh. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Father Ryan of the dmmaculate stion Church. The bride wore.a rich am satin, with trimmings of pearls, lilies of the valley and lace. She carried bride roses. The house was elab- y decorated with paims and orange plants in bloom, while chandeliers and ple- tures were garlanded with Chris greens. The bridesmaids were Miss Perry, Miss Neitie Sherman, Miss Mamie De Neald, Miss Geneveive Hallinan and Miss e Barry. Among the guests present were Mr. and Mrs. B, F. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. J. Stead, Mr. and Mrs. J.

Helven, Konn, Honey, W. E. Konn, F. Lochboeler, Barrick, Hallinan and Karpeles. The marriage of Miss Antoinette Van Hook and Mr. David G. Browne of Montana was solemnized by Rev. J. A. Aspinwall of St. Thomas’ Church last evening, at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Middleton Smith, 1616 19th street, in the presence only of immediate relatives. The handsome drawing room was decorated with ferns and white roses, and during the ceremony Lohengrin’s Wedding March was played. The bride's gown of heavy ivory satin was a marvel of elegarte and extreme sim- A spray of orange blossoms trafled side panel of the skirt. The corsage was draped with chiffon and point lace, and a spray of orange blossoms hung over the sleeve. The tulle veil was caught at the front by a handsome diamond pendant, presented by the groom. The bridal gown was changed for a tailor-made dress of pearl gray cloth, heavily braided in black and fastened with large steel buttons. With this stylish and becoming costume the bride wore a black hat, trimmed in green velvet, and green and black plumes. Mr. and Mrs. Browne left for New York, where they will spend some time before leaving for the west. Some of the cabinet hcuses were open to callers yesterday afternoon. Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British ambassador, was a noticeable figure as he called at the Ol- ney residence. Mrs. Lamont and Mrs. Har- mon were at home to visitors, but will not now receive again until New Year day. On Tuesday evening Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Nelson Page gave a small dinner in honor of their guests, Mr. Charles Dud- ley Warner ‘and Prof. Willard Fiske. Those present were Senator and Mrs. Hawley, Mr. and Mrs. Leigh Robinson, Miss Molly Elliot Seawell and Miss Lucy Page. At one of the daintiest of the midday feasts this season Mrs. Sternberg, wife of Surgeon General Sternberg, entertained a company of ladies at luncheon yesterday to meet Mrs. U. S. Grant. On a center- piece of exquisitely embroidered linen was a tall crystal vase filled with white rose buds. At each cover was a corsage bou- quet of violets tied with violet ribbons. The lamps were shaded with white silk wreathed with violets, and all the sweets were either violet or tied with violet rib- bons to carry out the color scheme. Mrs. Sternberg’s guests were Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Olney, Mrs. Lamont, Mrs. Harmon, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Romero, Mrs. J. W. Foster, Mrs. McMillan, Mrs. Winthrop, Mrs. Nor- ton, Mrs. Alden, Mrs. Charles E. Foster and Mrs. Richard Parker. Mrs. J. Thomson Swann has returned and opened her beautiful home on I street. She spent the fail months at her house in Princeton, N. J., which is in the center of so much of the social life when she is at home there and which she always leaves with regret only equaled by the pleasure expressed by friends here in hav- ing her back again, Mrs. Howard Ganson White has invita- tions out for a tea, 4 to 7 Thursday, De- cember 1701 Connecticut avenue, to est the Cornell Glee, Mandolin and Banjo Clubs. Mrs. John Frederick Leech entertained yesterday at a tea at which Miss Leech made her debut. It was made amid flowers and the smiles and congratulations of friends. The drawing rocms were most artistically decorated with ferns and Amer- ican beauty roses. Quantities of flowers lived their day of fragrance and beauty, expressive of the happy wishes of many friends of the debutante. Mrs. Leech wore pale blue brocade and satin, ard her win- some young daughter was in white satin- striped silk, with a bodice of white chiffon. The flqwers she carried were orchids, ar- ranged in a shower bouquet. Mrs. Ss. Lincoln and Mrs. John Rodgers were vis at the tea table. Mrs. Leech, sr., Mrs. R. E. Shapley of Philadelphia, Mrs. A. P. Burgwin and Miss Forsyth of Pittsburg, Miss Keats Rodgers, Miss Clagett, Miss Hagner, Miss Lindsey Pocr, Miss Jane Ful- ler and Miss Norris were in the receiving party. The house was thronged from 5 o'clock. Mrs. Charles R. Collins introduced her sister, Miss Elizabeth Riley, yesterday ata tea at the residence of Mrs. Riley, on Iowa circle. <The drawing rooms, in which so many joyous occasions have occurred, were decked with flowers, of which the debu- tante’s bouquets formed a beautiful part. Mrs. Collins received in a gown of black and white satin stripe, trimmed with chif- fon and jet. Miss Riley wore white chiffon, the bodice spangled in silver. She carried a bunch of American beauty roses. Miss Riley presided at the punch bowl in the library, and Miss Ida Riley, with Mrs. Tun- stall, Miss Scott, Miss Garnett, Miss Cuth- bert and Miss Cox, assisted in receiving. In the dining room, where the flowers and ali the dainty appointments were in pink, Miss Shepherd, Miss Isabel Shepherd and Miss Helen Tisdel did the honors. The com- Mrs. Collins, Miss Try Dr Bull's Cough Syrup for cough. pany was large and the residential families were largely represented. Miss Mary C. Cowles, daughter of Capt. C. D. Cowles of the army, and Mr. George D. Ramsay, son of Admiral F. M. Ramsay, Were married yesterday at Winston, N. C. Miss Cowles was there visiting her aunt, Mrs. H. V. Horton, and the romantic con- stmmation to an engagement which had been opposed by their elders took place from her house. Before the ceremony, however, the father of the bride wired his consent, and when he arrived later it was to meet his daughter and her husband and express his congratulations before the young couple took the train for a short Wedding trip, previous to their return here. Mr. R. J. Griffin, jr., and his sister, Miss Francis Griffin, will leave today for the Atlanta exposition.
