The island republic fought its first battle at Yara October 10, 1868, and the many friends of that country in official, diplomatic and residential circles drank to the continued peace and prosperity of Cuba.

In the drawing room, where the Am- | bassador received, a low and generous mound of the roses occupied almost | the entire top of the table in the cen- | ter of the room and on the table in | the dining room a taller mound of roses formed the centerpiece. Tall| red candles flanked the roses and as far as possible the dainties carried out 'l;m natfonal colors of red, white and lue. The Ambassador was assisted in re- celving by his daughters, Senorita Zoe Patterson and Senorita Olga Pat- terson, who alternated in receiving and assisting in the dining room, now and then taking time to enjoy a dance in the ball room, where a marimba orchestra played enticing music throughout the afternoon. Punch and more masculine liquid refreshments ‘were served in the conservatory, where | the long windows opening to the west | gave glimpses of the “mackerel” sky | tinged with rose color as the sun gave | way to twilight. Mrs. Sumner Welles In Striking Costume. States Ambassador to Cuba, accom- panied by Mrs. Welles, arrived during the early part of the reception hours, and after greeting their hosts, Mrs. Welles, always a lover of dogs, stopped to greet the handsome cinnamon Chow who had stretched himself in the middle of the floor and could easily have been taken for a rug. He was a bit ungracious to the friendly greeting and haughtily left the room. Mrs. Welles made & striking figure in a black dress molded to her figure, & narrow black belt marking the normal waistline. The severity of the gown was relieved by a white vest and low collar and her smartly fashioned hat was of black.

Her blond sister, Senorita, Olga Patterson, had on a tailored dress of bronze lame.
