Ashley have issued Invitations for the mariage of thelr daughter Ada to Mr. William Wallace Deane, Tuesday, June 2, at noon, First Presbyterian Church. The couple will be at home June 29 and July 6 at 217 F street northeast. The Russian minister, Mr. Kotzebue, en- tertained the members of the legation last night at a handsome dinner, as a starting hospitality to the festive mood tn which all Russians find themselves during this week of the coronation ceremonies. The engagement of Mr. C. C. Bryan and Miss Agnes Sidney Bartlett is announced. The wedding will take place at high noon ‘Tuesday, June 30, at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. Mr. and Mrs, Payson have been in Balti- more since their marriage Saturday at Stewart Castle, but will go this week to Benetoe) Stewart's farm, near Leesburg, ‘a. Mrs. Alexander Barrett and her daugh- ter, Miss Lily Barrett, whose engagement to Mr. Sergeant Prentiss Knut has been announced, are now visiting at the old Virginia homestead of the latter. The wedding will take place this summer in Newport. Mr. and Mrs. Hallet Kilbourn have taken Bleak House, ex-Governor Shepherd’s country place, on the 7th street road near Brightwood, for the summer, and are now comfortably established there. The man- sion, which is large and roomy, has been greatly renovated, and the country in that vicinity is just now in its prettiest dress. Mrs. and the Misses Brice were presented yesterday at the qucen’s drawing room, Buckingham palace, London. The Princess of Wales represented the queen. The Duchess of Marlborough, formerly Miss Vanderbilt of New York, was also present- ed, and was magnificently attired. Ambas- sador and Mrs. Bayard gave a tea after the drawing room, where the American colony was largely represented. Miss Frances Benjamin Johnston will hold a cose fete tomorrow (Wednesday) af- ternoon, from 5 to 8 o'clock, to which her friends are invited informally by this an- nouncement. Mr. and Mrs. D. M. Goodacre are now lo- cated in their own home, 1 13th street, and will be pleased to see their friends. Mrs. John C. Power of 22 8th street is visiting friends in Philadelphia.

P. for West Waterford, Ireland, and treasurer of the Irish Land League, and Mrs. Webb have been visiting their relative, Wm. L. Bar- rington of 3514 _N street northwest. Mr. Webb was president of the home rule con gress which recently met in Madras, India, for the purpose of promoting more inde- pendent government in the provinces. He has been three times elected member of the British parliament, each time without oppo- sition or expense, and resigned last fall, ac- cepting the Chiltern Hundreds, to devote his time and talents to promote home rule more vigorously in his native land. Mr. and Mrs. Webb have been circumnavigat- ing the globe, having visited Australia, New Zealand, Samoa, Honolulu and San Fran- cisco, and are now en route for their Dub- lin home. Mr. Webb is a great admirer of American institutions, inheriting the in- tense love of freedom which characterized his father, the late Richard D. Webb, au- thor of the “Life of John Brown.” He has therefore found a warm welcome from the venerable Samuel May of Massachusetts, who still survives at the great age of eighty-six, and Mr. Garrison of Orange, N. J., son of Wm. Lioyd Garrison, friends of his father and co-workers in the cause of freedom, at whose houses Mr. Webb has been warmly received. Mrs. Walter A. Johnston, 17 13th street, will not be home to callers tomorrow. ee Ss Anti-Saloon Mass Meeting. An anti-salson mass meeting was held Sunday afternoon at Hamline Methodist Episcopal Church, 9th and P etreets north- West, as announced in Saturday's Star, and addresses were delivered by Rev. W. R. Stricklen, the new pastor of the church; Representative Elijah A. Morse, Mr. Jo- seph Story of Boston, Andrew Wilson, €sq., of the district bar, Mr. J. C. Orr of Alabama, Mr. James L. Ewin, president of the league, and Col. John F. Vinal, chair- man of the league’s committee on mass meetings, who presided. Col. Vinal called attention to the publication in last Fri- day's Star of the league's bill to amend the liquor laws of the Disirict, as reported to the House by the committee on alcoholic liquor traffic, and this bill was referred to by most of the speakers. Quoting the motto of the Anti-Saloon League, Mr. Orr annotnced that the saloon is going in the south, and will “go” here as soon as the church people and temperance people get to werk in earnest. Mr. Story said when first asked to speak that he thought a cit- izen of Boston had no right to speak on the municipal affairs of Washington, but his second thought was that Washington, as the national capital, was his own city, and he spoke of the delight he had in visiting the city from year to year, and paid an eloquent tribute to Mr. Morse as a Repre- sentative from Massachusetts. ee eee Undine Temple Entertainment. Undine Juvenile Temple, Mrs. Emma F. hop, superintendent, gave a meritorious entertainment before an appreciative au- dience in Typographical Temple last Fri- Gay evening. Piano solos were rendered by Nephie Anderson, Nellie Bishop and Rosie Offenstein. Recitations by Virginia Bishop, Maud Jordan, Winfield Sands, Mary Ward, Mary Kieny, Catharine Coombs, Lillie Det- weiler, Myrtle Bowling, Jennie Allen, Ne- phie Anderson, Nellie Bishop, Lillie Reily, Elia and Loretta Fitzgibbon; a chorus by Emma Daniels, Bessie Graves and five oth- ers; a vocal solo by Mary Fitzgibbon, and three dialogues, in which the following took part: Corwin Furgeson, Herbert Offen- stein, Elmer Tate, Elmer Reel, Helen Ka- nede, Emma Daniels, Loretta and Mary Fitzgibbon, Lillie Detweiler, Mary Kieny, Catharine Coombs, Rosie Offenstein, Lillie Rei Kate Markling, Nettie Cole, Myrtle Bowiing, Wilford Dowiing, Charles Pen- nington, Eddie Fitzgibbon, Herbert Tedro, Frank Pennington, Jennie Allen, Bessie Doyle, Elanor Eckloff, Gracie Weast and a chorus of flower girls. Complimentary re- marks were made by Grand Superintendent Russell, who, by invitation, presented a gold medal to Emma Daniels, a reward for bringing in the largest number to the tem- ple during the quarter, and prize books to twenty-five others for regular attendance. es Mother-in-Law Not Satisfied. Daniel Kendrick, the young man who was acquitted in the Police Court Saturday of a charge of threatening his wife, whose maiden name was Angel, was very much overjoyed at his acquittal, because his mother-in-law had made the complaint. He says he does not believe marriage is a fail- ure, and he thinks his wife is the same angel he thought she was when he married her. The best evidence of-this is the fact that when he left court Saturday he re- turned home to his wife, who had refused to appear in court against him, But the mother-in-law is not satisfied. > The Mt. Vernon Regents. Today the council of the Mt. Vernon Ladies’ Association held shorter business sessions than usual. The council formally received Governor O'’Ferrall of Virginia and members of his staff, with the visiting board from the Virginia legislature. The distinguished party arrived before noon, and after a pleasant interchange of good wishes, the guests were entertained at luncheon by the regent, Mra. Townsend, and the vice regents. Governor O'Ferrall went over the mansion and grounds, ard was greatly pleased with the excellent con- ition of everything about the place. & 7 SENATOR STEWART IN VIRGINIA. His Horse Farm in Loudoun County Gives Him Much Pleasarc. Senator Stewart, who has become a quasi Virginian, is up to his knees In clover with his head over the fence and appetite all gone. He bought a farm lest summer for @ song or two in Loudoun county, where he has put all his blooded horses, and has a Place to go to Saturdays and Sundays. The farm was a run-down one, and he bought it at auction. Consequently, it is costing something to run it up into condi- tion, but this is a problem that Senator Stewart enjoys, for he knows how to do it. At first he hired men he found in the neighborhood, but they were not produc- tive of results. They did not know how to farm in the modern “out-west way” to which the Senator was accustomed. What they did not know was added to by what they would not do when told. So chey failed completely. But Senator Stewart aid not fail. He mentioned what he wanted to a New York friend in Congress, ard in two days’ time hired a hustling young fermer from the empire state, who !s yank- ing the old farm into shape at the rate of a mile a minute. He believes in subsoiling, frequent surface tillage, clover, short rot tions, the silo, manure spreading, and is putting his business-like ideas into prac- tice. Another thing that bothered the Senator was his mail. His post office was Farmwell, on the Round Hill branch of the Southern road. It was confounded ofien with another place in ‘Yirginia called Farmville. Last week the Senator siipped over to the Post Office Department and had the blamed place called Ashburn. So there's au Ashburn now for the summer arders to look at as the up to tl Bins Ridge to cool off. doped - is week another little thing came out all right for the silver-tongued, stlver-hair- ed, silver-eyed Nevada statesman. There is a lively horse show club at Hamilton, the social and business capital of Loudoun county. There are scores of horsemen in this club, and it is an talk horse with them, much more them consider you a’ horseman, Went @ peg higher with Senator They elected him president of the club, unsight and unseen,” for the Senator has thus far had little time to make acquain- tances, and has yet before him the pleas- ure of meeting the majority of his ad- mirers of the Hamailton Horse and Colt Show Association. The Senator goes up to the farm oftener than once a week in hot weather, and his Moses-like figure, grip in hand,’ may be seen striding in and out among the hordes of subordinates who go up on the Round Hill line every night and hustle back in the cool, bracing morning air.
