Sir Julian Pauncefote is still confined
TO his room with grip, which has become
complicated with a revisitation of the
gout. an unpleasant visitor at all times
but doubiy unpleasant in such company.
| a silver lining to the cloud has, however,
been contributed b. the Marquis of Sails
bury, VINO cabed On Tuesday that the
! queen has extended Sir Julian's term o.
service for a year from next April. This
| is an unprecedented honor. but one which
| everybody in official or social life VIII de-
| clare 10 be well merited. The full term
| of The distinguished ambassador viii thus
be extended to nearly eleven years.
| Mrs Nafler's stately home was bril-
/ liantly reminiscent last night of the gra-
cious hospitality which has so distin-
| guished it in the past. Both the receipt on
and cotillion given in honor of the Misses
| Warder, the young daughter OF the house,
were made ideally enjoyable by the fore
| thought of the hostess. who never permits
| her guest list TO overtax the capacity of
her home. thus avoiding that unpleasant
| phase of so many otherwise faultless en-
/ tertainments-a crush.
| Mrs. Warder gowned with quiet ele-
gance in black net, was assisted in receiv-
! ing during the reception hour by her
| daughter Mrs. Ward Thoron, and by the
i Misses Elizabeth and Alice Warder, the
| former wearing an eXquisitely dainty pink
satin. brocaded with white roses and the
latter pink silk veiled with embroidered
| chiffon.

The great drawing room and spacioGs hall,
| their floors as polished as mirrors, were
cleared, and the library was reserved dur
/ ing the dancing hours for those who pre-
| ferred 10 enjoy the pretty scene Us look

The cotillion, which commenced about
midnight was led by Mr. Frank Andrews
| and Miss Alice Warder. and the favors
were distributed by Mrs. Harriet Blaine
! Beale.
Patriotism was the dominant spirit of
the dance The favors were flags. shields
and tin soldiers, and the figures included
a sham battle. in which screen painted
to represent a stone fortress played a
thrilling part. a band of pretty heroines
defended its walls from a bombardiBg en-
emy that stormcd il desperately with pop
guns, and laurel wreaths and white doves
symboli2ed the consequent blessings of
victory and peace. Our New Possessions"
were introduced in the dance by comical
and distinctly unique favors consisting of
