NEW YEARS. GREETINGS.

Receptions at the White House and Else

Union whose people aahose to the custom OF
receiving callers formally on New Years Day.
In New York. Boston, Philadelphia aud Chi
csgo it is no longer good farm. and even among
Westinghouse New Years receptions will
soon become thing of the past.
The official receptions, Indeed, are the only
thing which tends to keep the CUSTOM in vogue
among private families, aid that influence is
gradually becoming less, and each year sees
fewer gatherings of ladies to formally receive
the New Years greetings Of their men friends.
The reception of the day, of course, this
year, as it always is, was that at the White
House. The Executive Mansion had been
thoroughly oytrhsued for the season just
opened. The regular program was followed
out. the President received the Vice-Presi-
dent, the Cabinet and the members OF the
Diplomatic Corps. Then the Chief Justice and
Associate Justices of the United States Su-
preme Court. other Federal Courts aud the
District Supreme Court paid their respects to
the Chief Magistrate. Senators, Representa-
tiyes and delegates. the Commissioners and
other officers of the District followed Tho
Army, Navy and Marine Corps officers appeared
next, and then came all the Assistant Secretar-
les, CiYil-Seryiee Commissioners. etc, the
Associated Veterans of the Mexican War, the
Grand Army of the Republic, the Loyal Legion,
and the Oldest Inhabitants.
There followed procession OF private citi-
gems. As early as 10 o'clock people began ar
irving, although they knew full well that the
doors would not be opened TO them until half
past II. But between arriving at 10 and securing
place and being admitted promptly, and ar
irving at IL only to stand two or three hours
in line. there is not much choice. The crowd
is so vast and the line of handshakers SO slow
in its movement, that hours are required to
work off" the whole assembage.
The President stands Mt the head of the col
umn. the ladies of his party next in order OF
their official rank. Only the President shakes
hands, the rest of tbs party bow. To the man
who has never been in it before i. is great Jun,
but to the President it is necessarily tiresome.
The curiosity to see and shake hands with peo-
pie is a universal trait OF human nature, and
it is probable that these receptions at the
White House will continue for many years.

The Legion of Legal Women held grand
reception on New Years Day at their cosy

and prepared for effective charity work than
ever before. Its efforts will be specially directed
to providing permanent relief by assisting its
wards to become self supporting. Special holt
day contributions for the poor have been re-
ceived at their Headquarters, and promptly
and carefully distributed.
The Legion has elected the following officers

CHAT OF THE CORRIDORS,

The spirit Of Christmas in Washington usually
begins TO assert itself about three avs before
Christmas. and holiday atmosphere pervades
nnih about the same length of time after New
Years. 1t has long been Governmental Gus
tom to dismiss the Department clerks with
half days service on the day preceding holi-
day, and the vast host takes itself into the
streets and around the shops whether the day
be fair or foul. II computation be made of

osiiy costs the taxpayers, but still no one CON-

Sngton citizens have felt the hard times less
than people ia other cities, because such a great
number of them are fortunate enough to drew
their income of crisp Treasury notes from the
Government.

Ruevsky got his base on an error by
Hart at third, and Meheula came
home. Lindsay flew out, but the
students had run their score up to
seven, and things looked blue for the
Hawaiis.
In the second half, Pryce went out
from Ruevsky to Lindsay, AHA got
his base On balls, and Cupid made a
three bagger and brought AHA home.
Cupid then crossed the plate on
Thompson's sacrifice, and Clark
struck out. Score, seven to four.
No more runs were made until the
second half of the sixth, when Pryce
made short base hit, and AHA also
struck to right for base. Both ad-
vanced bag on a passed ball. Cupid
famed out, and Pryce came in on 3
throw to first. Thompson then made
base hit, and AHA tried to get
home, but was caught at the plate.
Thompson stole second, but it did him
no good, as Clark famed the air three
times. This left the score seven to
five.
The college boys were shut out in
their half of the seventh, but the Ha-
waits did good work. Hart took
first ON three strikes and
passed ball. Willis hit safe and
Hart went to third, and came in
on another passed ball. This advanced
Willis TO third. Rosa famed out,
and Holt flew to Wise, who muffed,
letting Willis in. Pryce made short
sacrifice hit to Lindsay, and Holt got
second. AHA hit short TO Ruevsky
and was thrown out at first. But the
score was tied, and the Hawaii con-
tingent howled.
Both sides were easily disposed of
in the eighth, and the Kamehamehas
were shut out the first half of the
ninth. The Hawaiis then had chance
to win, and came very near doing it.
Willis hit safe, Rosa sacrificed, but
sent Willis base ahead. Holt went
out at first, but Willis got to third.
Right at this stage of the game was
where it was lost. Two men were out,
but man was on third. Pryee hit
short, and Willis started for home.
For some reason, Pryce did not run at
all, but simply stood still. and was
thrown out, leaving Willis on
third. Pryce said he thought only
one man was out, but even that did
not seem to be any excuse for not rum
ming at critical stage of the game.
The Kamehamehas opened their
part of the tenth with "a long fly by
Ako to left, which Holt muffed. On
a passed ball and two wild throws, ,Ako
came nome, ana the COilege sympa-
thiZers went wild. Koki then got his
base on an error by Willis, Wise made
a two-base hit, and Mahuka forced
Koki out at third. Meheula struck
out, and Ruevsky made safe hit 10
center that brought Wise homes
Lindsay then pounded out two-bag-
ger to left and brought in Mahnka and
Ruevsky. Kaanoi fouled out, leaving
the score ii to Z. The Hawaiis could
do nothing in their half, and went out
in one, two, three order, and the first
game of the season was over.
The following is the score:

THOMPSON.

for Captain Thompson's men to over
come, and the Kamehamehas won the
first game.
The day was an ideal one for base
ball, and the grand stand was fairly
well filled. The band was there and
played a short air between each in
ming. The Kamehamehas may have
been the favorites, but the Hawaiis
had the sympathy of the crowd-with
the exception, of course, of the large
number of Kamehameha boys who
were present. These latter kept per-
fectly quiet when the Hawaiis made
a good play, but at the least move
ment of their champions they howled
themselves hoarse, which was but
natural.
The Kamehamehas went to bat first,
but were retired without a run, as
first. But in the second the good work
commenced. KaanOi got his base on
balls and Bridges did the same thing,
which put Kaanoi on second. Ako
got his base on an error and succeeded
in forcing Kaanoi out at third. Koki
came to the rescue of the two men on
bases, and hit for two bags, bringing
Bridges and Ako in, amid the deafening
howls of the students. Wise followed
this up with three bagger, and Koki
scored. Mahuka got base hit, bring
ing Wise in. Meheula and Ruevsky
were put out, but the Kamehame has
had three runs TO their credit.
The Hawaiis had an uphill fight
now, but they decreased their oppon-
ent's lead in their half of the second.
Pryce led off with base hit and got
to second on q passed ball. AHA, on a
sacrifice hit, advanced Pryce to third,
and he came in on a passed ball by
Bridges. Cupid got to first on another
passed ball when he had famed the
air three times, stole second and third
and came in on base hit by Thomp-
son. Thompson got third on another
passed ball, while Clark struck out.
Hart then flew out TO Kaanoi, and left
Thompson on third. Score-4 to 8.

When the ninth inning was reached
in Saturdays ball game, the Hawaiis
had the score tied, and it looked as
though the nearly invincible Ka-
mehamehas had lost the first game of
the season. But, owing to fiuke of
Pryce, of the Hawaiis, the latter team
did not score in their half, and the
students rolled up four runs in the
tenth. This was too much of lead

The Fort Worth Gazette thinks
that the Republican nomination
in Texas this year will be about as
valuable, or as valueless, as Queen
LiPs crown. 1t is not often that
the Gazette gets as near the truth
as in this statement, and it is COM
mended accordingly. The Gazette
is however informed that the sill
yer lining appearsl on the rim Of
the inky clouds that have obscured
the Republican sky heretofore,
and the good old party of protec-
tion hopes to do better in the fu-
future in so far as sending repre-
sentatives from Texas to the Ma
tIonal Congress is concerned, than
in the past. There is no doubt
that this news will be welcome in
telligence to the Gazette, hence it
is offered for its comfort in these
days of darkness when the pail
that settles down on Reagan grows
hourly greater.
