lent institution, Altenheim, was held
yesterday afternoon and evening be-
tween the hours of four and eight
O'Clock. During that period fully
three hundred and seventy-fve people
visited the pleasant resort, partook OF
the splendid supper spread, and en-
joyed the music of the Opera House or
chestra and the social side OF the affair.
Had the early part of the evening not
been so wet and threatening, the at
tendance would no doubt have been
larger; nevertheless the committees felt
amply repaid at the array Of visitors
present.
The FIVE and six o'clock motors on the
w. & E. G. railroad carried most OF the
guests to the Home. Upon arriving al
the beautiful resort decorations could al
once be detected. Arches OF Chinese
lanterns were placed at intervals up the
walk leading to the spacious Guiding.
Ascending the winding staircase from
tue ground floor, the guests were cordi-
ally greeted by MeSdaDes Anton Rey-
mann, r. X. Swope, John Moffat, Gus
tave Aschman and Charles Smith.
From the hall on the second floor
everyone promenaded through the vari-
ons apartments, admiring the beautiful
decorations of evergreen, cut flowers
aud potted plants, artisticaIly
arranged under the super7i-
sion OF Mrs. Mary Frauzneim,
who was uutiring in her efforts to make
the guests feel a. home.
From the parlors the tendency seem
ed 10 drift toward the dining room,
" here the wants Of the inner man could
be appeased. The supper consisted OF
everything that could be wished for or
procured at this season OF the year, and
was a very able effort on the part Of the
chef.
The ladies' IN charge OF and waiting
on the tables were Misses Marie Stifel,
Anna Wingerter, Anna Hess, Annie
Sage, Anna Pfarr, Anna Reymann, Jen-
ME Franzheim, Sue Stifel and Mrs. Jas.
Riddle.
The ladies in charge OF the arrange
ments on the lower floor were Mesdames
Henry Bieberson, VIM. Stifel, Louis
Stifel, Misses Alice Egerter, Nellie Egg
erter and Emma Bieberson.
The Opera House Orchestra was TO
have been stationed on a platform just
north of the building, but owing to the
rain the plans were somewhat chanaed,
and they occupied the veranda In front
Of the building, where, under the direc-
ton of Prof. e. w. Spell, an excellent
musical programme WIS discussed
Quite number OF impromptu
remarks were made by the prominent
gentlemen present. All were Of the
same opinion regarding the success Of
the anniversary, and all extended their
thanks to the ladies for lending such a
helping hand. And they did not forget
to mention Or. f. r. Swope and Mr..
Anton Reymaun, who were foremost in
working Tor the success Of the affair.
AT ten o'clock all returned to the city
much pleased with their visit to lovely
Altenheim.
