Pretty Reception.-The hospitable |

A Pretty ReceptiO On.-The hospitable
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Philip Stone, at Po-
tomac, was the scene Of more than usual
gaiety and pleasure on the close of the after
noon of Friday last, the occasion being a
very handsome reception TO DR.. j. L. Pul.
liam, OF that place, who was married on the
previous Wednesday, in Richmond, Va, to
Miss Josephine Stribling Ryand, of that
city. The hours Of the reception were from
8 P. M. until 0. Daylight had been care
fully excluded and the house brilliantly H.
Illuminated; rare plants and rarer flowers,
gracefully arranged, so heightened and mel
lowed the scene until it became one of poetic
beauty. Midst uch fairy like abode eyes
grew brighter than jewels beneath the soft
light of the chandeliers, until one was re-
minded Of Mahomet's promises to the war
worn soldiers Of the Crescent. Occasion
ally the soft notes of music foated through
the perfumed air and the crowded hall,
whilst now and then the low laugh of a
young girl, richer and sweeter than all in
strumental melody combined, fell upon the
charmed ear and made the listener dream
of heaven.
The table, one of Madame Stones rare ac-
complishments, was elaborate, unique and
artistic. Choice substantials with fruits
from the tropics and flowers from rich par
terres were so arranged as to give zest and
beauty-a table fit for "the gods" The only
drinkables were chocolate and coffee, with
water-ices and creams
The bride, o pretty brunette, graceful in
her bearing, with decided animation and
expression of countenance, was dressed in
black faille and orange gauze-wore cor
| sage bouquet of white roses, and her mid
night tresses adorned with lilies of the val
ley. The groom, a fine type of the Virginia
gentleman, of prepossesslng appearance,
was attired in conventional style.
Among the many present during the
charming but fieeting hours of the reception
were Mr.. and Mrs Montgomery CIaggett,
Mr.. and Mrs w. b. Tschiffely, Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Kilgour, Mr.. and Mrs. William
Claggett, Mr.. and Mrs. w. b. Davis, Mr.
and Mrs. Wilson Offutt, Drs. Linthicum of
ieoChNlilc anu hdiu Vi w dsuiuSG'u, WITS
M. NJ Chiffon, Misses Lizzie and Irene Rice
Miss Kitty Jones, Miss Cora Rathburn,
Misses Blanche, Netie and Bessie Claggett
of West Washington, Miss Sallie Kilgour,
Miss Effie Caggett, Misses Harrison, Miss
| Willie Beall, Miss Lou Tschitfely, Mrs. A.
| ID. Brockett and Miss George Brockett Of
Alexandria, Va, Rev. Mr.. Ellington, of
Washington, Col. VIM. Kilgour, Messrs A.
j. Almoney, George Rice, Richard and Ar
chic Aisquith, Dunbar Claggett, Fred Rice.
F. A. Tschffely, Jr., M. Craven, f. l.. and
s. Tschiffely.
The music of Miss Effie Claggett at the
piano was an interesting feature OF the oc-
casion and was warmly criticised.
DIR, Pulliam, the groom, located in Poto
mac only few months since, has made
many friends, and with such charming
wife we predict for him a largely increased
popularity.
Potomac and its immediate vicinity has
been the social centre Of the county during
the winter, and this elegant entertainment
of Mr.. and Mrs. Stone would seem a fitting
and graceful elimination.
