DANCING PARTY.-One of the pref.
test dances of the season was given
last evening at the hospitable home OF
MIR. and Mrs. William B. Smoot, on
Prince street, in honor of Miss Mamie
French. The drawing rooms were
handsomely decorated with maiden
hair ferns and growing plants, and
here large number of young people
danced the hours away to the inspiring
music of skilled orchestra. Mrs.
Smoot was assisted in receiving her
guests by Miss French, ofthis city, and
the Misses Webb, of Baltimore. The
gowns of the lovely women were very
handsome and in exquisite taste and
added brilliancy to the scene. The
company included many guests from
Washington, Baltimore and Philadel-
phia in addition to those residing in this
city. At eleven o'clock the guests re-
paired to the dining loom, where pink
shaded candles and pink roses rendered
still more attractive the elegant supper
that was there set forth. Dancing was
then continued, aud was kept up until
late hour, ending with the "Old Vir-
ginia Reel" and the customary waltz to
the familiar strains of "Home, Sweet
Home" All agree in pronouncing the
evening an entire success.

THE TWENTY-SECoND.-As hereto
fore stated there will be no public OBJ
servance of Washington's birthday IN
this city this year. Those who have
heretofore been foremost in getting up
these celebrations say the times are
too hard and money too scarce to un.
dertake successful parade and that
unless they could get up credi-
table celebration they would prefer
none at all. Those who usually con
tribute to these celebrations have been
called on so frequently this year to AID
the poor that they don't feel like CIV
ing money for parade when
money could be used in ameliorating
the wants of the distressed. Many OF
the firemen, too. who take such an inter,
est in the city parades are now out OF
employment and could ill-atford to
spend money for trimmings" when
thew want it for the necessaries of life:
However, the day will be observed
more quietly by several of the secret
orders end other organizations OF the
citv. The j.. 0. u. A. NJ. will cele,
brate the day at banquet to be held
at night. TIE Y. NJ. S. l.. and some oil
the other organizations will also give

DIR. STAFFoRD'S LECTURE.-The
Opera House was crowded last night by
an appreciative audience which had as
sembled to hear Rev. Father Stailord's
lecture on Dickens. The lecturer was
a little late in reaching the hall, he
having missed the seven O'Clock train
from Washington. The time, however,
was made interesting by Miss Mary
Dewitt, who gave some excellent exhi-
billions of her skill on the piano. The
reverend father having arrived, Mr.. Nj.
B. Harlow introduced him to the au-
dience, and when the applause which
greeted him had ceased, Father Stat
ford apologized for having kept his au-
dience waiting, and Immediately
launched into his subject. 1t is well
known to every thoughtful reader OF
Dickenss works that they can be read
and re-read, and at each perusal a new
lesson is learned or some beauty of de-.
scription which had formerly been pass.
ed over thoughtlessly is FURNISHED into
briliancy. Father Stafford brought out
yeritabe mine of such thoughts, and
persons in the audience who had been
students Of Dickens saw the great au-
thor as they had never seen him before.
The lecturer showed the true mission
OF the novelist. He dwelt but little on
his humor, but was profuse IN his
reference to his pathos, his sympathy
for his race and his own struggles IN
early life with adverse fortune. HIS
reference and description to Paul Dom
by. Little Nell and Joe of Bleak House
were the most natural ever heard here
from lecturer, and one could almost
imagine himself watcher at the death
beds of them all. He closed his lecture
by description of the murder of Nam
cy by Bill Sykes, and the latter's re-
morse over the deed, and it was unanl
mously agreed that it was the most
dramatic picture eyer presented on an
Alexandria stage.

no doubt about it; at

Can't give any reason
for it at this time; that
promised "restoration"

AMI merchants, too,
just like they did be-
fore the cleo ton;
prices haven't gone
up; people say times
are hard and business
dull; but, still, in spite
of all, we are selling
more goods than we
we're. The amount of
it is that the people
are getting tired of

OPERA HoUsE.-"The Burglar
which will be produced at the Opera
House tonight, is one of the most pop
ular plays of recent years. This is but
natural. for not alone is The Burglar"
of a decidedly healthy tone, but com
bnes all the sentimental qualities which
never fail to win an audience: The
character of little Editha and her en-
counter with the burglar is beautifully
and charmingly conceived: =,
Glands Across the Sea-" which Will
be seen at the Opera House Wednesday
night, is an elective melodrama, en-
bodying most of the wellknown eXpe-
dents and features of a class of plays
with which the public is never entirely
done. II has had large and enthusias.
tic patronage and is we'll acted and
handsomely produced.
