TO HONOR CAPT. sHsBEE-
A Reception to Be Held atothe darlington
Hotel. II t
Officers of the Geographic, Society to
Have Charge of All the
Arrangements. g.

Being lionized as the hero of the hour
does rot affect in any way the customary
anlability, observation-disclosures and simplicity
Of Captain Charles D. Sigsbee, and while
he naturally appreciates all the many ex-
pressions of esteem and high regard which
reach him from all directions the effect
goes ro further. He will be given an op-
portunity to realize more fully the senti-
ment in which he is held next Saturday
evening, when a reception in his honor will
be given in the parlors and ball room OF
the Arlington Hotel. The arrangements for
this testimonial have not been completed,
but the fact that they are in such COM
petent hands is an assurance that they will
be satisfactory to everybody.
The COMMITTEE In Charge.
The committee in charge represents the
National Geographic Society. Of which
Prof Alexander Graham Bell Is president,
and consists of Col. Henry F. Blount, Prof.
w. ]. MCGEE and Mr.. Charles J. Bell. The
reception will be entirely informal, and 1t
is intended that every one who desires to
do so will be given an opportunity to shake
hands with the gallant commander Of the
Maine.
The board of managers of the National
Geographic Society will receive the guests
Mrs H. F. Blount, Mrs. F. v. Coville. Mrs.
w. H. Dali, Mrs. D. T. Day, Mrs. Henry
Gannett. Mrs. G. K. Gilbert, Mrs. A. w.
Greedy, Mrs. John Hyde. Mrs. w. ]. Nc
Gee Mrs c. Hart Merriam, Mrs. H. G. Og-
den and Miss E. r. Scidmore.
While the general public will be welcome
over a thousand invitations will be sent out
to prominent persons, including the Presi-
dent and his cabinet, and others distin-
guished in official life. The parlors will
be appropriately decorated with the ma
tention of the committee to secure, If pos
sible, the cooperation of the Navy Depart
nent authorities to the extent of ordering
the United States Marine Band for duty at
the reception, it being thought that ma
tional music such as will characterize the
occasion could most fittingly be rendered
by the national band.
Called on the President.
Capt. Sigsbee spent large part of yes
terday at the Navy Department spending a
considerable time in consultation with Sec
rotary Long. When the department closed
for the day, Secretary Long walked over
with Capt. Sgsbee to the White House and
presented him to President Mckinley, who
gave him cordial welcome and expressed
his appreciation of Capt.--Sigsbee's conduct
when disaster overlook his vessel. Capt.
Sigsbee left the Executive Mansion with
Secretary Long in the latter's carriage.
He spent the evening quietly at home with
his family, receiving few callers, among
them being Mr.. Justice Brown of the United
States Supreme Court, who wished to shake
hands with man who could write such a
message as Capt. Sigsbee sent when the
Maine was blown UP. n
