its wild flowers which has attracted
the attention of botanists far and near
many coming here and remaining the
entire season.
The place possesses the finest beach
on the coast. At many periods during
the season the place is too small to ac-
commodate the tourists.

OF last week gives the following:
A very pleasant reception was tender
ed Miss Sally Lyell Tapscott, Of treder-

Maude Harvey being the hostess. The
Harvey home on Third avenue was en-
fete for the occasion, decorated with a
profusion Of cut flowers, smilax ana
ferns. An unusually large number Of
people were in attendance. including
several from out Of town. The cos
fumes worn were handsome and elabOr-
ate, aud were extremely becoming to
their fair wearers al Of whom looked
unusually well In the receiving line
were Miss TapscOtt, Miss Hall, Of Ken

young hostess exerted herself to make
the evening an enjoyable one. and add
ed to the laurels she has already won IN
that capacity she was looking her best
in very fetching costume Of organdle
over blue silk, with necklace Of pearls.
Varir Us devices for the entertainment
of the company had been provided, the
most amusing being mock marriage
ceremony. A vote was taken to deter
mine the high contracting parties, ana
Miss TapscOtt and Mr. Henry Aleshlre
were chosen with an unanimity that at
least raised a suspicion that the ballot
box was stuffed. The bride was a vision
~ loyeliness in white organdie over
silk, with veil en- traine. She wore
orange blossoms that showed TO advan-
tage in her dark hair and carried white
carnations. The groom was in all the
glory Of full dress, with a vast expanse

amusing, was performed by Mr.. Ohas.

wedding breakfast of delicious ices and
cake was served. Miss Tapscott was
even more bewitching as bride than
she is in every day life. No girl who
has visited Huntington in years hSs
made so many and so strong friends al
she. and is 50 deservedly popular, and
her many admirers here would be glad
if ceremony other than a mock one
or some other combination of circum'
stances would make her a permanent
institution.
