THE CONNECTICUT COLONY.

Reception Given to the Congress
siOnal Delegation MT the Arlington.
The members of the Connecticut delega-
ton in Congress were given reception last
night in the parlors of the Arlington Hotel
by the Connecticut colony in this city. The
event was a delightful social affair. and
brought several hundred people together
to renew old friendships of the nutmeg
state and TO make new ones. Senator Haw-
ley, Senator Platt, Representatives E. S.
Henry N. D. Sperry. Charles y. Russell
and E. ]. Hill were present and were intro
duced to their Connecticut constituents as
they arrived.
The reception continued from 8 to 1880
o'clock, and at o'clock a buffet lunch was
served.
AS an outcome of last nights affair it
is thought probable that Connecticut
state association will be formed similar to
the social organizations now existing among
the citizens of other states resident in
Washington.
