Dinner and Dance, the Cotillion and Other Events, With Dinners and Teas, Made a Busy Day. There were great throngs of callers yester- day afternoon making the rounds of the re- ceptions. The weather was perfect for ‘versions of this character and Mrs. Stev- enson and the cabinet ladies welcomed even larger crowds than the week previous. For the first time this season all the cabinet houses were open, and only those who made the cireuit by riding from house to house were able to complete it from 3 to 5.

She had the pleasure of introducing her call- ers to Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Smith, Seer tary Smith’s parents, and who are a splen- did-looking couple in the prime of life.

A telephone message was received about 2 o'clock for some one to come out to Wood- ley lane, that an accident had happened to the pony carriage. The coming home of the two elder girls relieved all anxiety about them, but it was not for some time later that the arrival of little Frances safe and sound, too, completed her mother’s happiness.

THE NATIONAL FENCIBLES, Now Organized a m Independent Company—A Fair in Mare! The National Fencibles entered on a new era Tuesday evening last, when a revised constitution was adopted to suit the chang- ed conditions of the organization—that of an independent military company. A board of governors was elected, as follows: Domer (chairman), Lee B. M Mortimer, J. A. Butler, jr., W. T. Carruthers, W. E. Crist, Graff and J. C. Kondrup. After the company was mustered out of the National Guard, last July, articles of incorporation were filed, stating as the ob- jects of the organization the advancement of the members in military science and so- cial enjoyment, and to this end the Fenci- bles leased the whole of house 913 E street northwest. This structure they have fur- nished throughout. Not losing Bight of its military feature, the company has con- tracted for the erection in the rear of its quarters of a commodious drill hall and locker room, sixty feet deep by thirty feet in width, which will be ready for occu- pancy in'a few weeks, When she National Guard moved from the Center Market to the present National Guard armory the Fencibles had erected one hundred new lockers, and these will be placed in their new addition when it is completed. It is also intended to use this hall for dancing parties. The command, however, possess no rifles, having been de- prived of this most necessary feature to a military company when mustered out. To overcome this embarrassment the Fencibles have decided to appeal to the public for assistance, in order that the ccmpany may again creditably represent this city at the next interstate drill, and «ideavor to regain the proud title of champicn military company of the United States. The roster of the company at present is as follows: Captain, C. 8. Domer; first lieutenant, L. Brent Mosher; second lieu- tenant, W. W. Mortimer; first sergeant, I. C. Rice; sergeants, W. E. Crist, 8. C. Red- man, W. W. Walker, J. P. Cromwell, C. 5. Sessford, and privates, E. W. Andrews, 0. W. Bailey, L. J. Barber, V. 8S. Barber, W. E. Baum, J. A. Butler, jr., Henry Brock, jr., R. S.
