social events was the reception given last
night by Mr.. and Mrs. Smith D Mackey, at

of sInilax, hung over the mantel, was the

eye. Over all the doors hung festoons of
smilax and roses, smilax twined a tall ebony
cabinet and festooned the mantels, n
masses Of roses stood wherever they could be
placed. On a small table stood q large
basket of pink and yellow roses. Palms
were everywhere, and in the rear drawing
room formed a screen of foliage that filed
the bow windows at the back of the house.
Mr.. and Mrs Mackey stood at the entrance
to the front drawing room to receive their
guests. Mrs. Mackey's gown was OF hello
trope brocade, with a design in silver sprays;
the waist deliberately trimmed with point
lace, and with diamond ornaments. There
were not less than four hundred guests pres
ent, and the rooms were filed to their ut
most capacity during the entire evening.
The supper rooms, on the lower floor, had
been decorated by Purssell of New York, IN

miration of all who saw Them The color
scheme was pink, carried out with ribbons,
candles, china and flowers.
