The club emblem, made of red and white blos- soms and suspended by broad ribbons, was conspicuous, hanging between the drawing rooms. ‘The refreshment table was artistic- ally decorated, as well, as abundantly sup- plied. Miniature cherry trees with tempt- ing fruit were some of the pretty sugges- tions of the day on the table, which was further adorned by beautiful flowers. Mr. and Mrs. Wilkins had the pleasure of wel- coming not only the club, but many other friends. The Gridiron Club Quartet and Mrs. Thomas C.

The Chicago chapter and other Illinois ladies, who gave a reception at the Raleigh in honor of the president general, Mrs. Le- titia Green Stevenson of Illinois, last even- ing, had Old Probs against them, but he retired in disgust, and left the field to the “sons and daughters” who, unmindful of the pouring rain, braved the elements to do honor to the ladies and their beloved prest- dent general. The beautiful banquet hall of the Raicigh was thrown open for the reception, and was thronged throughout the two hours. It was simply decerated with flags, but an- other touch would have spoiled the per- fect harmony of the effect. Among these the white satin’ banner of the Chicago chapter and their own splendid silk flag were most conspicuous. The reception was extended by Chicago chapter to Mrs. Stev- enson and the D. A. R. and their guests. Mrs. James H. Walker, regent of the chap- ter, was assisted by some seventeen mem- bers of her chapter, who are attending the congress.

Among the many brilliant teas given to visiting Daughters of the American Revo- lution yesterday that extended by Mr Madison A. Ballinger at her beautiful home on Clifton street was one of the most enjoyable. The line of carriages ex- tended two blocks and people stood in lino half an hour before they could get into the house. The drawing reoms were bright and perfumed with the freshest of flowers, and the tea room was a perfect bower of them. The tea table had a center- piece of red and white carnations. Ropes of smilax were caught to the corners ef the table with tri-colored ribbons. In hand- some silver candlesticks red, white and blue cerdles were burning. The bonbons carried out the pretty patriotic effect. Miss Smith and Miss Scully presided at the tea table.
