NOTABLE DINNER GIVEN
BY THE GRDRoN CLUB.
More Distinguished Men Present Than
Have Gathered for Long Time
Interesting Features.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 3-The GridIron
Club tonight gave a most notable dinner,
entertaining distinguished guests from
the United States. Europe. and other
parts OF the world. In the company were
the president. vlce-prcsident. members OF
the cabinet. the president OF Costa Rica,
the premier Of Canada. the entire joint
high American-Canadian commission.
General Garcia, the most prominent Of
fcer~ Of the army and navy. senator's.
representatives. and many other dIstln-
gulshed men. More than leo persons were
assembled in the beautifully decorated
dining hall Of the Arlington hotel.
The dinner was in a measure conducted
on the lines OF compliment and honor
TO the men who distinguished themselves
both by land and sea In the late war.
The guests were grouped in divisions
of volunteers. and in orders. very direct
and explicit. were required to keep In
the line Of fire. during the entire engage
ment.
A map OF a battle-ground was ore OF
the unique features. in which various
divisions were represented as charging
through Champagne river toward Table
heights. where they were supposed to
have captured ''Soon Won" hill.
Among the features was burlesque in
Of the conduct OF the war.
which conveyed some OF the more humor-
Gus features Of the real investigation.
