Incidents of the Reception.

There were some funny incidents, of
course. One of the most amusing was
the appearance Of Chief Justice Fuller at
the head Of the Supreme court, for never
did Justice Gray, Justice Harlan, and
other giants of the bench lock 80 large.
Aud then in the society of the oldest inhab-
itants of the District Of Columbia, which
always appears in full force on new.years
day were several of the characters of
Washington. One Of them, the venerable
Mr.. Decker, was very anxious that Col.
Wilson, who was making the introduc-
tions to the president, should get mis- name
right.
1T is an easy and common nsme." he
said, "and there is no reason why 1t
should be mispronounced."
"Mr. Decker" shouted Col. Wilson,
without entering into the discussion.
Chow do you do Mr.. Becker?" said the
president.
'It's a pleasant day Mr.. Fletcher" said
Mrs. Cleveland.
Delighted to see you, Mr., Thacker," 1"
said Miss Bayard.
''You have seen good many new.yesr's
days, Mr.. Thacker, said Mrs. Whitney,
who always has a pleasant word as people
pass down the line.
"a happy new year, Mr.. Flannery,
exclaimed Mrs. Faichild, and then when
the poor old man who was 80 particular
to have his name pronounced correctly
got to the end of the line Mrs. Dickerson
called him Flannigan, and he staggered
into the east room and pulled some enveI-
opes out of his pocket to see, from their
addresses, who he was when he started.
But these things can scarcely be helped
when there are thousands going and com.
ing, and the ladies in the receiving line
have 10 catch the names as they are pro-
nounced by the one that precedes them.
There were the usual number of cranks
about, but the crowd Of callers were close.
ly watched by experienced detectives,
and some OF them who might have done
mischief were pulled out before they got
to the president. One old soldier insist.
ed upon kissing Mrs. Cleveland's hand,
she pulled it away as soon as
she saw his intention. There were a doz-
en- or more fathers and mothers who
brought their children to see the president
Of the U. S. and his beautiful wife, and
they were patted on the head with the
presidents official caress.
Two cabinet debutantes enjoyed their
formal entrees that day at the reception,
Miss Nellie Bayard, the fourth daughter
IF the secretary of state, and Miss Daisy
the only daughter of the attorney.
