WHAT is OCCURRING IN THE GAY REALMS
OF WHEELING.
The Handsome Entertainment Given Last Night BY
Mrs. Lewis S. Dslaplain-Oher Events
in the Social World-A Rare
Week Of Pleasure.

graciously endowed, was the entertain
ment given last evening by Mrs. Lewis
5. Delaplain at her beautiful home on
Chapline street. The affair was given In
honor of Mrs. Earl w. Oglebay,of Cleve-
land, Ohio, and Miss Sadie Meade, the
charming guest OF Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
J. Hearne. Mr.. and Mrs. Will Delaplain
were likewise central figures In the hon.
or bestowed, and the guests in extend
ing their greetings found ii all the more
enjoyable to meet so many around wnom
clustered the favors of the hour. The
guests upon arriving were graclously
received upon entering the par
Tors, and so admirably was the
affair conducted that all were
thrown, Immediately after the formal
greeting, almost unconsciously, into the
social intercourse that reigned uniter-
ruptingly for several hours. The Della
plain mansion,is admirably adapted for
social gatherings, so well apportioned
are the various apartments and so com
modious and well appointed are both
the parlors and Railways. The interior
was tastily bedecked for the occasion,
flowers being most artistically arranged
particularly in the dining room, where
the chandeliers, central service stand,
and sides of the apartment formed all
almost floral retreat. A most appetiz-
ing lunch was served at half past ten
o'clock, after which a season OF dane
ing was enjoyed, music being furnished
by Killmyer. The affair was so arranged
that the married guests largely held
sway until eleven o'clock, after which
the younger guests entered more fully
into the festivities Of the evening. 1t
was delightful occasion throughout,
There was a pretty wedding last
evening at half-past eight o'clock at the
residence OF Mr.. and Mrs. John Rogers
on North Main street, the contracting
parties being their daughter, Miss
Hattie Rogers, and Mr. Thomas Collins.
Rev. j. +. Chenoweth, pastor of the
North Street M. L. Church, performed
the ceremony. The affair was OF
quiet nature, being attended by only
the close friends of the principals. A
splendid array of presents greeted the
happy couple. Mr.. and Mrs. Collins
will go to housekeeping on North Main
street 10 a commodious home built by
the groom few months ago. Their
many friends wish them health and
prosperity.
There is likely to be theatrical pro-
duction in open air some time this sum-
mer, probably in the latter part OF
August, either at Wheeling Park or
upon some lawn adjoining a suburban
residence. The project advanced by
the Elks few months ago, of giving a
Shakespearean production at the Park,
with a prominent tragedian in the lead
ing role, has not as yet materialized,
and there are some doubts as to whether
satisfactory arrangements can be made.
A number Of the younger people, versed
in Thespian tactics to some extent, are
agitating the presentation OF one or two
farcical pieces on suitable grounds out
the road. 1t would certainly afford a
most delightful form OF entertainment.
