THE WORLD OF SOCIETY Splendid Uniforr's and Gowns and Spark- ling Jewels. The White House Levee in Honor of the Foreigners — Per- sonals. The White House levee last night was without doubt the most brilliant event which has occurred there during this ad- ministration, or, indeed, perhaps ever in its history. The throng was very large, and while those who formed it had some few uncomfortable moments in being push- ed about, revertbeless, had the satisfac- tion of knowing they were part of a splen- did pageant. The moral of getting to the White House early in the interests of per- sonal comfort did not bring the early birds any peculiar advantage, for the worst part of the jam was experienced a half an hour before the reception commenced. Guests began arriving a few minutes after 8, an@ at 9, when the receivirg party came down stairs, it was with some difficulty a passage way was made for them. The company then filled the corridor, halls, lob- by and cloak rooms, and overflowed into the east room. The President's guests, Mr. and Mrs. Parkinson of New York, and Miss Woodward and Miss Bryant of New York. who are visiting Mrs. Lamont, were ir the blue room to meet the President an? the receiving party. All the members of the cabinet and all the ladies were in the procession except Mrs. Smith. Mrs. Cleveland's dress, of white velvet elaborately spangled in silver, was ex- tremely becoming. The bodice had jaunty short puffed sleeves, and glittered with the spangles, a rich design covering both the revers front and back. She wore her dia- mond necklace, several diamond ornaments in her corsage, and diamond side combs with other diamond ornaments in her hair Mrs. Olney was in brocaded white satin, Mrs. Carlisle in brocaded velvet, rote shades, trimmed with fur; Mrs. Lamont, a len brocade, with touches of pink vel- “vet and duchess lace ruffies on the waist: Mrs. Harmon, mauve brocade, with velvyct and pearl passamenteries; Mrs. Wilson, white moire and duchess lace; Miss Her- bert, black velvet, with bodice of striped chiffon and shoulder knots of black vel- vet, and Miss Morton in silver gray satin and point lace. ‘The brilliant pageant began with the presentation of the diplomatic corps, which Pleasant office Col. Wilson as gracefully rformed as he did the announcements of the names of the hundreds of other guests who pa: by the President and Mrs. Cleveland during the evening. The British amb: or, Sir Julian Pauncefote, preced- ed his diplomatic family. The French, Italian and ambassadors were all present, accompanied by ladies, and there was scarcely a noticeable absence among the ministers and the rest of the corps. The uniforms seemed to vie with each other in gilded gorgeousness, and the trap- pings of military millinery. While the men were thus richly appareled, the ladies of the corps fairly glittered with jewels. In such crowded rooms sparkling gems are more effective than rich gowns, but in this case the two went together. Lady Pauncefote wore a low necked dress of white satin combined with garnet velvet. diamond tiara, a colarette of diamonc crescents and stars, diamond bracelets and diamond corsage ornaments were the fin- ishing touches. Mrs. Patenotre was in black velvet, the low-necked bodice edged with jet. Her necklace was of large solitaires. Diamond stars in her hair-and-in her corsage were worn. Baroness Thielman was in light straw colored brocade and chiffon. A tiara of diamond Stars and other diamond and pear! ornaments. A broad blue and white sash across the corsage held an imperial decora- tion in diamonds and pearls. Mrs. Romero wore Nile green moire spangled in silver, and the lace at the neck, caught with knots, and rosettes of pink velvet.

The reception was practically over at half- past 10, and the President and Mrs. Cleve- land had then a chance to exchange a word with the guests who remained in the blue paerlor. There were more elaboration in the floral and electrical effects at the White House last night than was ever attempted before. The ceiling of the cast room was canopied with smilax garlands, in which red, white and blue lights twinkled. The chandeliers were topped with palm leaves, and from these the garlands reached to the side walls. The effects on the mantels in fioral mosaics, the grouping of the palms in the window niches, was very fine. In the blue room asparagus garlands stretched from the chandelier to the walls and the mantels were banked with red and white camellias and orchids. Two or three times the crowd in the cor- ridor, between those in the line entering the red room and those wishing to reach the cloak rooms or to wander about the con- servatories, was simply unmanageable. Fine gowns, especially those of lace and fluffy materials, were almost wrecked, and those who found a comfortable corner in the east room remained wisely where they were, at least partially removed from the crush. To see Mrs. Scott Townsend's and Mrs. Hearst's diamonds and splendid gowns were treats enough, however, to compensate for much of the crowding.and pushing. Mrs. Townsend wore a necklace of solitaires, each as large as hazel nuts. A string of rearls of enormous size was also worn. Her diamond tiara was surmounted by firefly wings. Mrs. Walter D.
