Increasing Business — At : The Palais Royal. trange but true--the very reason that has caused the most successful of merchants to privately admit a decrease of business is the reason for the increasing business here. The ‘dull times” is the reason. People have of late been more careful in their expenditure—have learned that the Palais Royal's cash business enables less prices than needed by the merchants whose business is largely credit. : Couple stocks that are now the largest, most complete and varied in Washington and the increasing business at this G st. corner is easily understood. The 1897 French Organdies. The price is so much less than prevailing that we need assure you that the Genuine French Organdies and this year’s importations are offered.

Dru ts & Grocers. Jalé-s,t,th,28 bees tie * It has been a busy week socially, but the gayety has had a rather more substantiai fcrm than usual. The events have run largely to dinners, opera parties and sup- pers and such other solid recognitions that can only be construed as flattering tributes to personal excellence or ability to recipro- cate with invitations of equal value. As a Ginner-giving community Washington daily becomes more important, and the value of good cook is somewhat akin to the scrip- tural definition of a good wife. There seems to be a slight lull in the giving of house balls, but there are said to be some sur- prises in store for next month. The season will have the full month cf February at its command and twe days of March; but there is not likely to be anything of great moment occurring after the 20th, as some of the official homes will show by that date signs of disintegration. The inaugural ball will preclude the possibility of getting up any other large ball, such as the Army and Navy has been the last two winters. The club was not reorganized this season and any intention there was of giving an assembly has now been abandoned. The smailer dancing clubs have been very suc- cessful this winter and have several events yet on the card. Marriages do not seem to be on the decline, notwithstanding the oth- er attractions of the season, and several come next week, which will provide very agreeable breaks in the every day routine. The charity ball next Wednesday night is the only one of the week. That evening, in acdition, has been kept entirely free from all other social engagements, so there is absolutely nothing that could ‘bly de- tract ever so little from its success. The charity bal? has always been a brilliant event, and this one has an additional fea- ture. in the supper. Each member of the board of the Children’s Hospital has pledg- ed herself to send in suitable quantities the particular dish for which her cook is famous—and the dainties prepared under these auspices cannot fail to form a mar- velous spread. Some of the events in next week's calen- dar are, for: Monday— Mrs. Benjamin F. Leighton, a tea; 5 to 7. Tuesday— = Mrs. Romero will receive, 3 to 6, at the Mexican legation for the last time this sea- son. Secretary and Mrs. Carlisle, a dinner, in honor of President and Mrs. Cleveland. Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Kauffmann, a re- ception; 9 p.m. Wednesday— The marriage of Miss Camilla Hare and Mr. Jay B. Lippincott, at St. John’s Church, at 12 o'clock. Mrs. Cullom, a luncheon, to meet Mrs. William Ridgely and Mrs. Charles Ridgely. The annual charity ball for the Chil- dren's Hospital, at armory. Thursday— President and Mrs. Cleveland will enter- tain the diplomatic corps at dinner. Friday— Mrs. Francis, wife of the Secretary of the Interior, will give a luncheon in honor of Miss Boyd. Mrs. and Miss Caffery, a tea, 5 o'clock, at 2110 O street. The Washington cotillion at Rauscher’s, 1084 Connecticut avenue; assembly at 9; cotillion at 10. Saturday— . Mrs. Cleveland, a card ladies, from 3 to 5. Mrs. Cropper, a luncheon. Secretary and Mrs. Olney, a diplomatic dinner. the National Rifles’ reception for It has been many years since opera has ‘een given here to such audiences as have arsembled the past two nights and at the matinee today. Where the charm of Wag- rcrian music lies may be a puzzle for those to whom livelier strains and movements constitute harmony, but that it can be en- joyed and can be made delightful to the highest degree, when heard with an audience composed of the very cream of the capital's social life, has been satisfactorily answered. The gilded horseshoe of the Metro- politan Opera Hovse in New York could have held no more precious freight in the way of distinguished humanity than either of these gatherings here, and in many re- spects, measuring such a Washington au- dience by its achievements, its official or diplomatic position, it is simply impossible to touch it anywhere save at a foreign capital. There were a few, but just a few, ladies who marred the picture a little by wearing their bonnets, yet their presence gave evidence of a republican simplicity, a feeling we would not exchange for a wa- gon load of cororets—so at least, as a na- tion, we are fond of saying, even if as in- dividuals we show a weakness now and then for the glittering baubles. Everybody, though, who is anybody, as the old trite saying goes, Cid honor to the occasion by the most gorgeous array. Splendid gowns, made doubly attractive by flashing gems, were the rule. The diamonds glittering on necks and hair around the double tier of boxes were almost a perfect band of light. Mre. Cleveland was superb last night in a gown, of pale pink satin that had in the short puffed sleeves bunches of violets. A diamond rose on a gold bandeaux, and her diamond necklace, were the most conspic- uous of her ornaments. She had the least gowned in blue satin, being in front of her. Mrs. Perrine wore white satin, and ed. ‘the beautiful woman she is. Tonight President and Mrs. Cleveland will be the guests of Seageary and Mrs. Francis. ‘The Washington Cotillion will inaugurate its season by an assembly at Rauscher’s Friday, Jaauary 22. -It will be a very pretty ball. The company is well and of comfortable proportions. The co- tillon will begin at 10. The receiving party will be Mrs. Charles H. Gibson, Mrs. N. C. Blanchard, Mrs. Charies J.
