The Cadets‘ picnic at Brown‘s park July the 4th. ae VANESS PARK. Since the opening of this park by Mr. Marcellus West, he has endeavored to make it respecta- ble in every particular. He has not allowed ladies and gentlemen to be insu'ted nor will he allow anything to go on of which the most virtious would be ashamed. For this the colored people don’t seem to give him that encourage- ment and support which he is en- titled to. He keeps his park in first class grder and for that rea- son alone the colored people should patron‘ze it. It is a place where ladies or gentlemen ever can visit without the least suspecion or without being insulted if they behave themselves. There is noth- ing to matter with the West, bros., and it is the earnest wish of the Bee that they will be patronized.

THEIR PICNIC AT BROWNS PARK MON- DAY JULY 47H. It was published several days ago that the commissioners had decided not to grant any more permits for picnics at Browns Park. This is true, but on account of the past good record of the Washington Cadet Corps, Major C. A. Fleetwood commanding, Capt. J. W. Dabney, chairman of the committee of arrangements has received a permit from the Commissioners allowing the Ca- dets to have a picnic at this park, Monday July 4th. Thisis very commendable on the part of the Commissioners as the Cadets al- ways give first class entertain- ments, picnics, &c. It 18 hoped therefore since the Commissioners have made an exception in the case of the Cadets and will allow them to give their picnic at this park July 4th that the people will visit the park in tull foice and give thema rousing reception. Refreshments will be at moderate prices, music will be rendered by Prof. Krause. Capt. J. W. Dab- ney. chairman of the committee. Admission - - - 25 cts. res: WHAT IS A MUGWUMP? MAYOR COURTENAY OF CHARLESTON ANSWERS IT BY 1 ELLING A LITTLESTORY Among the members of the Boardo Visitors to West Point this year w: Wm. Everett of Massachusetts. He bright clever man and ason of the distin- guished American orator Edward Everett. At the banquet given tothe Board of Visitors during the closing exercises at the Academy, the Doctor took oceasiou to inforin the guests that he was a Mus- wump, aud wanted everybody to know it This statement brought Mayor Courtenay of Charleston, 5. C., to his feet, : said it remiuded him of a sto the time the Mugwump first | existencean English lord y country, and devoted much attention to the study of our institutions and manners The constant use o! the term “Mugwump,” during the political campaign attracted his notice, so one day he made bold to ask an American friend what the word *“Mugwump’’meant. A Republican who votes the Democrat ticket” was the reply. And what doyou calla Demoerat who votes the Republican ticket?’ next inquired the curious Englishman. ‘I'd call him a dam- foul,’’ was the triend’s prompt respouse. The guests are said to have enjoyed the hit immensely, With, perhaps, the possible exception of the Mugwump from the Bay State.-—‘New York Sun‘-— MUSTER IN OF THE CAPITAL CITY GUARD CORP, On Monday night last, at pre- cisely ten o’clock of the three hun dred memb>rs of the above corps, the two hundred and fortieth man, answered to his name, and was mustered in as a part of the orga nized militia of the District of Co- lumbia, taking rank asto date of muster, with the Washington Light Infantry Corp, whose commanding officer, together with several mem bers of his staff accompanied Gen’l} Ordway to the Guard’s Armory, and remained during the muster. Owing tothe large number present for muster, the armory was unus. ually crowded, and this being no- ticed by Col. Moore, he stepped to the side of Col. Revells, and offer- ed him the use of his armory, which was declined with thanks, owing to the lateness ofthe hour. After the muster was over, Col. Revells in vited Gen’l Ordway, Col. Moore, Capt. Allison Nailor and others, to the elegant restaurant, cvrver of 13th and E sts., and there enter- tained them in royal style with the delicacies of the season. It would have been a fine sight for the Vicks- burg ‘‘Southrons,” to have wit- nessed. Col, Revells, in fatigue uniform, seated at the head of the table, with Gen’l Ordway, at his right, and Col. Moore at the oppo- site end surrounded by his staff, all in fatigue uniform. People passed and repassed, looked in and rubbed their eyes, to make sure that they were not deceived, but they quietly accepted the situation. es DAFFIN—COLVIN MARRIAGE. ABRILLIANT AFFAIR AT THE 15TH ST, PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. A DISTINGUISHED AUDIENCE PRESENT The marriage of Miss Sarah L. Dafiin of Philadelphia, and one of the teachers in the High school of | this city, to Mr. Edward J. Colvin) at the 15th s. Presbyterian Churcb, | on last Thursday morning, was | one ot the most brilliant and im- posing events that ever took place in this city. Precisely at 7:30 o”- clock, the bridal party arrived with Mr. J. A. McDaffee and W. A. Stewart as ushers. The bride was tastefully attired in + handsome brown travelling silk, while the groomsman wore the usual con- ventional black suit, and the ushers dressed accordingly. The ceremony was performed by Rev. John R. Riley, of the 15th st. Pres- byterian Church. The bride was given away by Prof. F. L. Cardoza, principal of the High School of this city. Miss Daffin isa lady of extraordinary attainments, and one who is held in high esteem by all who know her. She has been one of the most successful teachers in the High School, whose services will be missed- Mr. Colvin, her husband, is 4 gentleman well known in this city, having been a resident for several years, The bridal par- ty left on the 9 o’clock train for Atlantic City, N. J,,where they will remain several days, the guests of the popular Havalow House, afterwhich they wiil visit Philadel- phia, and then return to their own residence, 1904 16th st., 0. w., in this city, where they will be pleased to meet their numerous friends and acquaintances. : oe HAYNES—JOHNSON. The beautiful St. Mary’s Episco- pal Chapel, Twenty-third street, between G and H streets, no. w., was, notwithstanding the inclement weather, well filled last Wednesday night by the best citizens of Wash- ington, to witness the solemniza- tion of the marriage vows between William H. Haynes, of the internal revenue, Tresuary Department, and Miss Miss Bessie Appo John— son, eldest daughter of Mr. Henry Johnson, school trustee. Precisely at the hour (8. p. m.) designated, the bridal party arrived at the chapel, and were reeeived by the ushers, Messrs. Wm. A. Johnson, John F, Cook, Jr., Milton Simms and William Freeman. The bride was accompanied by her father, with her sisters, Misses Helen and Susie, as attendants. Upon reach- ing the chancel the bride’s father signified the release of his daughter by banding her over to her fature protector—the groom. The beau- titul Episcopal marriage service was performed by Rev. Wm. Hol- den in a most pleasing and impres- sive manner, which together with the music and ¢he brilliancy of the assemblage made the occasion a notable one. The bride wore a cream colored surah dress, trimmed with Vallen ciennes lace, with diamond-shaped bodice anU natural flowers. The groom and bis best man, Mr. Harry A. Lewis, wore the conventional full dress suits, and carried their honors with becoming ease and dignity. Owing to recent «ffl ction in the family of the bride, no for- mal reception was hel», but a large number of the friends of the fami ly called upon the young couple at the residence of the bride’s f 6 er, 1529 Madison st., prior to their go- ing to their own howe, 1714 P st., northwest. The presents were numerons, rich and costly, a large predomi- nence, however, being useful as well as ornamental. —_ += A MUSICAL PRODIGY. The *‘Musicale” given by Miss Alice Strange, at ber residence, 509 P st.,n. w.,on Saturday eve. June 18, to introduce the talented young violinist, Mr. William Cook,- was a pronounced success, and all who braved the excessive heat and crowded her parlorsen that oc casion, felt amply repaid for their discomfort. Those who took part in the program of the evening were: Mr. William Cook, violinist, with Miss Alice Strange as accompanist, Miss Sallie Waring, soloist, Mrs. Hillyer, Miss Eunice Wormley and Miss Blanche Washington, of the Carreno Club. Of the eight num- bers on the program four were filled by Mr. Cook, with selections from the compositions of DeBerriot, Weiniowski and Vieuxtemps, and his interpretations were a revela- tion to all present. He ylayed with a depth of teeling, power, pa- thos and brilliancy, indicating ab solute genius, when it is remem bered that he has arrived at his present standing after but two years of study. The writer has had the pleasure of listening to De- Berriot’s 6Var, as rendered by some of the great mas‘ers, among them Ole Bull, and can say ¢ -nsci- entiously, that never has that com posit o1 given him more pleasure than as rendered by Mr. Cook. |The bowing and execution were simply marvellous. The ligh and shade, delicacy of touch, auu beau- tiful finish of the cadenza passages, betrayed a musical conception, | that will place him on the topmost round of the ladder of fame, in time, if his opportunities for at vancement coutinue. In appear- ance Mr. Cook is tall and gracefu’, modest in bearing, and a dreamy cast of countenance, indicating a poetic nature. It is understood that be desires to pursue his stud- ieg in Berlin next season, and a movemeut is on foot looking to wards a concert here, for the double purpose of allowing the citizens generally to enjoy the musical treat, and to assist him practically, in carrying on his studies. He will also concertize in Richmond, and Petersburg, Va. The support rendered Mr, Cook, by the ladies filling the other numbers on the program, was admirable. Miss Waring was in splendid voice, while the “Schubert Serenade,’ rendered asa duet, by Miss Ea- nice Wormley and Mrs. Hillyer, with piano accompaniment, and a violin obligato, was an exquisite gem.
