The minister from Austria-Hungary and Mrs. Hengelmuller entertained at an elab- orate dinner last evening in honor of the British ambassador and Lady Pauncefote. The decorations were appropriate, the color scheme in the drawing rooms being red. England's national color. Giant palms banked the rooms and hnge clusters of American beauties, tied with wide satin ribbon of the same hue, stood out in bold relief. In the dining room the colors used were black and yellow, the national colors of Austria-Hungary, and the cloth of the leng oval table was Mterally covered with yellow daffodils and smilax, with wide black and yellow satin bands crossing the table. Daffodils rising in the center of the table reached to the crystal chandelier, which was also ornamented with a large bow of the Austrian colors. The same idea was car- ried out in the favors. ‘The guests were the ambassador from Great Britain and Lady Pauncefote, the German ambassador, the Spanish minister and the Duchess dArcos, Senator and Mrs. Wetmore, M and Mrs. Richardson, Mr. and Mrs. Wes . Gen. and Mrs. Nelson A.

The members of the Gridiron Club who went to New York Saturday as the guests of the Lotos Club are enthusiastic over the success of the trip. Their hosts were most hospitable, and while the methods of the Gridironers were somewhat of an innova- tion in Gotham, they were met with a give- and-take spirit that was delightful. The Lotos people had heard somewhat of the peculiar ways of the Washington news- paper men, but they were not prepared for the high-handed way in which the guests took possession of the banquet hall and as- sumed charge of the proceedings. ‘The ban- quet progressed very pleasantly, with o sional diversions in the way of music and recitations, until the coffee wa served. This was the signal for the Washington men. A sturdy policeman pushed his way through the crowded banquet hall to the president's table and summarily placed un- der arrest Vice President White of the Lotos Club, who was presiding, and ejected him from the room, on a charge preferred by President H. L. West of the Gridiron Club of conducting an indecent performance. or rather, of a performance that wasn’t half decent. In the meantime the Gridiron min- strels had hurried to the cloak room, and supplied themselves with high hats, and, when President West announced that the Gridiron Club would take charge and run the show their own way, filed into the room and gave a unique performance, which seemed to be highly appreciated. The New York Sun of yesterday, in a long article on the Lotos banquet, said: “Anything resembling that ‘minstrel show is not likely to be seen in a New York club house until the Gridiron comes over from Washington again. * * * The Gridiron style of dinner is an innovation in club life in thiscity. The Gridiron people do not object to serious words at their feasts, but they do object to anything in the nature of monot- ony or self-appreciation on the part of any speaker. The men who run the Gridiron Club have come to the conclusion that the evils of public dinners are most of them due at bottom to these two forms of crime. The understanding of the Washington ideals grew upon the Lotos Club men, and were greatly appreciated. The New York- ers, before the night was over. became many of them most adept in the use of the guying practices of the visiting organiza- tion. “The Gridiron Club men pleased with the progréss in roasting gently developed by during the dinner. When Mr. were the greatly art of to come back at the énd of the minstrel show, that the entertainment had pleased the Grid- iron Club, and had not disgusted the Lotos, Mr. West, -who continually usurped the gavel, leaned over him and patted him on the back, saying: Keep on, my son. keep on. One of ih jays you will be eligible for the Gridiron. —_>——_. z CLEAR BUT FOUR DAYs. Condition of Potomac Water Daring Month of February. According to Col. Miller, the engineer of- ficer in charge of the Washington aqueduct, the water served to the residents of the District was clear only four days during the month of February, being very turbid during seventeen days, and in various de- grees of turbidity during seven days. The ccnsumption and waste of water during the twenty-four hours ended at 7 o’elock a.m., February 24, amounted to 50,423,237 gallons. Col. Miller reports that good progress is being made in the work of repairing the aqueduct tunnel and Howard University reservoir. The work of excavating the sand accumulated in the seventy-five inch main at the new reservoir is slow on ac- count of the contracted space for working. Nevertheless about two-thirds of the total material has been removed. Up to date 36,677 cubic yards of material have been removed from the interior of the tunnel. ———— JOHN MERNA’S RASH ACT. A Bartender, Thirty-Six Years of Age, Commits Suicide. John Merna, a bartender, aged thirty-six years, who made his home at the saloon of J. McEnerney, No, 212 9th street north- west, where he was employed, committed suicide there about 8 o'clock iast evening by shooting himself through the head with a revolver. No motive is known for the rash act, as Merna seemed to be of an in- usually cheerful disposition. He was in the saloon Ralf an hour before the shooting, at which time he conversed in a pleasant man- ae with several persons who were pres- ent. 5 Merna came to Washington from Dublin about six-months ago, and it is said his wife resides there. body was remo. to the where it was today Carr, who gave a certi with the facts.
