The mansion was very elaborately adorned with flowers, and when the Presi- dent and his wife came down stairs with their receiving party most of their guests were assembled either in the corridor or in the parlors. The Marine Band was sta- tioned in the vestibule and played through- out the evening. Colonel Bingha pre- ceded the hcst and hostess to the blue room, wher? the President took his station on the spot where so many of his predecessors have received their friends on social oc- casions. Mrs. McKinley was seated next him and shook hands with every one. In eS receiving line were Mrs. Hobart, Mrs. iger, Mrs. Gary Long. Secretary Sherman, tary Gage, Secretary Alger, Attorney Gen- eral McKenna, Secretary Long. Se r Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. J.

During the reception re- freshments were served in the state dining room, where the table was beautifully decked with flowers and dainties.

Flowers and vines trimmed the rooms, where sweets and liquid dainties were dispensed. Dur- ing the early part of the evening Mr. Clarence Hopkins gave a violin selection, accompanied by Mr. Edwin Higgins. Miss Harding also gave a violin solo. A pretty wedding took place last night at the home of Mrs. Chas. White, 809 7th street northeast. The contracting parties were Miss Ida E. White, daughter of ‘the late Chas. H. White, and Mr. Wm. J. Kolb. The parlors were handsomely decorated with palms, flowers and smilax. The deep bay window was a bower of beauty. The ceremony was performed by Rev. J. Fred Heissel of Wesley M. E. Church. Lo- hengrin’s “‘Wedding March” was rendered by Miss Mamie Fowle. The bride was tastefully gowned in white organdie over white satin and carried a bouquet of white jasmine, sent by her cousin from St. Louis. The maid of honor, Miss Alberta Latchford of Baltimore, wore white organdie over light blue. Little Bessie Crockett acted as flower girl and wore white with pink rib- bons. An informal reception was held and several pieces of china were used which were among the bride’s mother’s wedding gifts. A number of friends from Wesley Sunday schoo! were present, which school the couple have attended since childhood. There were also present many friends from other parts of the city and from a distance. They received many valuable and useful presents, among which was a handsome lamp and stand presented by the employes of the bureau of American republics, with whom the groom is intimately associated.

R., What? From the Manchester, N. H., Union, The question as to who should carry on the noble and patriotic ceremony of Me- morial day when the surviving veterans of the civil war shall become too feeble or too few t» assume such duties and responsibil- ities has often been raised, and the usual answer in this section has been that th- Sons of Veterans organization would con- tinue and cariy it on. The ceremonies have been conducted in a way to have become most valuabie in their patriotic lessons, not equaled in this respect by any other ob- servance. In one way and another they have developed until they have become most impressive. The Fourth of July ora- tion has as a rule become a thing of the past, but nearly every town has its Me- morial day address and for the purpose the best public speakers obtainable are en- gaged. The cxercises in the public schools have become systematic and the arrange- ent of music and responses is most en- ‘tertatning and instructive. The Chicago Times-Herald takes up the question and suggests that when the time shall come that the G. A.
