EVSt IVNVPtiOhs vi tuC bCoooh was
given at Rose Crest this evening by
Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander Young.
The Youngs are prominent among
the millionaire Hawaiians who have
established summer homes in Oakland.
They are also prominent in social cir
cles in the Islands, where Mr.. Young
was a prominent annexationist and
leader among those who made Dole
their President.
Some months ago Mr.. Young pur-
chased Rose Crest on Vernon Heights,
building a magnificent residence there,
and making 1t one Of the finest subur-
ban homes in the county. The Youngs
have an equally magnificent home at
Waikiki, Honolulu, where they spend
their winters, and to which they will
return on the 18th of this month. The
lat home" this evening was very
brilliant affair, and included many
prominent families Of the city. 1t was
given by Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander
Young in honor of Mr.. and Mrs. Jo-
seph Louis Howard-the latter former
~ MISS Mary Ellen IOunS.
Mr.. Howard and Miss Young were
married at Rose Crest few days ago,
only relatives of both families being
present. The large mansion was bril-
liant with lights, and gay with color,
having been deliberately decorated for
the occasion.
The wide hall showed very charm
ing color scheme Of yellow. The din
ing-rOom, where the guests were re-
ceived, was in pink, the feathery cos
mos being used in great profusion.
The library showed masses of su-
perb roses, Rose Crest fully living up
to les name. A color study of red was
well worked out with quantities of
dahlias in the MUSHROOM.
The dining-roOm was exceedingly
dainty in white and green, there being
quantities of white carnations and
ferns. Shortly after o'clock the
guests began to arrive, and were re-
ceived by Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander
Young and by Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Louis Howard.
Mrs. Young's gown was a very ele-
CANT creation, fire combination Of
black taffeta and white silk appliqued
with chantilly lace.
The bride, Mrs. Howard, wore a
beautiful gown, original and striking
ly handsome in design. 1t was most
effective combination Of violet and
white, a Persian pattern, and bright
ened with silver trimmings.
