Mr. E. Burgess of Philadelphia is the ov ner, Hoepitalities in Honor of the Young Belgian Prince. Col. and Mrs. Bingham Dinner Givers Last Night—Interesting Per- sonal Notes. Prince Albert Leopold Clement Maria Mainrod, heir to the Belgian throne, ar- rived in New York yesterday and was wel- comed by the Belgian minister, Coant Lich- tervelde. The latter returned to this city last night, and Prince Albert and his trav- eling companions will probably be here to- morrow or early Friday. President and Mrs. McKinley will entertain at a state dinner Friday night in ihe prince's honor. Saturday night the prince will be the guest of the Belgian minister and Countess Lichtervelde at a dinner, which will be fol- lowed by a large reception. Both dinner and reception will be given at Rauscher's. The prince is traveling incognito as Count de Rethey. His stay in Washington, so far as the arrangements indicate, will be offi- cially and socially a very pleasant one, but there is ene drawback in the critical illness of the Princess Stephanie, which, it is fear- ed, may terminate fatally in the very near future, and in that event the Belgian court will be in mourning. The young iadies who sold programs and flags yesterday at the Maine relief concert had easy tasks, and the results of their busy afternoon's work will considerably swell the grand total. Miss Sartoris had the distinction of selling to the occupants of Secretary Long's box. The President and Mrs. McKinley were eager purchasers, and Mrs. McKinley offered for her flag a crisp greenback. The same readiness to hold the stars and stripes was in evidence in Mrs. Richardson Clover's box, among Whose guests were the Misses Leiter and Mrs. Sartoris. A few minutes after the young ladies started to sell the flags the whole house was in possession of the wav- ing colors. These young ladies were Miss Miles, Miss Crosby, Miss Hichborn, Miss Bates, Miss Gilmore, Miss McCalla, Miss Emmons S. Smith. Modish °98 Merchandise. ALL READY ON OUR COUNTERS.

A largely attended reetirg of the Mary- land Republican Club was held last even- ing at No. 923 F street northwest. Pres- ident Charles M. Forrest was in the chair. After transacting considerable business pertaining to the club, including the elec- tion of Senator-elect Louis E. McComas to honorary membership, on motion of Dr. Robins a committee was appointed to draft an expression of the club relative to the election of senator at Annapolis. The com- mittee reported resolutions reciting that as publication was made in certain newspa- pers during the recent senatorial contest at Annapolis to the effect that the Maryland Republican Club of Washington, D.C., had passed a resolution in opposition to the election of Louis E. McComas as United States senator, the club, at this, its first, meeting since the election of Mr. McComas, hereby “declares that ary statemen: that this club ever considered or passed any resolution relative to the indorsement of or oppositicn to any one for the senator- ship is absolutely untrue. The club unani- mously denounces as false and malicious any such statement, from whatever source it may have emanated, and most heartily and with great pleascre congratulates Judge Louis E. McComas on his election to the office of senator. Congratulations are extended to all the citizens of Maryland, and the republican party in particular, on Shoes of absolute comfort, exact fashion and unequaled wear. _.
