WASHINGTON, Feb. % The presi-
dent will give reception 70 the officers
of the army and navy next Friday even
ing at the White house. The diplomatic
corps, the judiciary, the senators and
members OF congress are expected, the
official announcement says. As with
the diplomatic corps reception, the
members of that body are invited
through the secretary of state, the army
and navy by the secretaries OF war and
the navy, and the Judiciary at the
hands of the attorney general.
No cards are issued for these occasions.
and il IS stated that it is the wish of the
president that members of congress ma "
attend without more formal invitation
than the publication to this effect. The
senators will not attend upon any such
invitation as this. They will stay away,
as they did from the diplomatic recep-
tion. In this announcement, az Will be
noticed, the president does not say, as he
did before, that7t has not been custom
airy on such occasions TO issue cards.
A local paper states. as an example of
JeffersonIan simplicity, that at Miss
CleVeland's luncheon Friday, the ices
were shaped IN miniature Japanese fig
ures carrying tiny japanese umbrella,
and while these petty bits were being
eaten, the band played the "Mikado"
waltzes.
Mr.. Messie. of the Spanish legation,
was among the guests at q recent fash
ionable entertainment, on the occasion
referred. He appeared IN court costume,
knee breeches, black silk stockings and
the regulation dress coat, fastened at the
walstband. At either side were glitter
ing steel chains, the ends OF which rested
in the pockets, and attached to which
were respectively q bunch of keys and
watch. This latter adjunct TO the mas.
culine toilet, introduced by few dipIo-
mats, bids fair to become Q popular
craze with the elite of Washington.
Mr.. Cheng Hansen and other members
OF the Chinese legation, have invited
friends to dancing party TuesdsY
evening at the legation. The party is q !
farewell from these young gentlemen, |
and is intended as parting compli- |
ment to such ladies and gentlemen in |
social life as have entertained them /
during their residence here. The /
Chinese minister cannot hope to see his /
friends on that evening, as his health i
Will not permit 1t, but his courteous as
sistants will do the honors for him.
