A PREsENTATIoNp
The brilliancy of a gathering of ladies'
beneath the tempered rays of electric
lights or the soft chickering's of gas jets is
rivalled only by a conclave OF the fair sex
in a grand room into which modestly
steals the scin:ilating gints of an irrides-
cent afternoon sun. Such a charming
scene was vouched those in the house of
representatives yesterday afternoon. Gen
tlemen were in the dress prescribed for
morning weddings, while the ladies were
attIred in the subdued costumes designed
for street wear The gorgeous trappings
of full dress were replaced by the becom-
ing and admirable simplicity Of the calling
toilette.
The gathering included those society

whose quiet bat effective work has so

quets of huge dimensions adorned the
speakers desk and sent sweet odors
floating.
Mrs. Esther Morris, a distinguished
Wyoming lady prominent in the ranks of
progressive womanhoo1. was given a seat

within the bar of the house. The foyer
was crowded and the gallery filled.

and faced the audience with his usual air
of confidence. He had been delegated to
perform a duty extremely pleasing, but at
the same time tinged with sadness. As
the parting hour approached regret in
vaded the hearts OF men whose associa-
tons had been so intimate and pleasant
for the past two months. The kindliest
feeling had existed among the members
and employees and had even extended to
the reporters on the floor. There had
been tits and debates at times bordered
on the bitter, but diSsensions had invari-
ably terminated amicably. This evenness
of pace was due almost entirely to the
executive ability, geniality and rare iudg-
ment of their speaker. one who ruled by
kindness. The representatives, as COM
ponepts. were of varied tamners. l%nclina-
