The Second Levee Of the Winter Held
Dinners and Rec&to9 Inter
esting Personal Notes.

last night was attehoe9 :Dyt another large
company. The arrangements for the re-
| ccption Of the guests and the, forming of a
continuous procession from THE very en-
trance Of the east terrace tofthe blue room
secured general satisfaction. Those who
were in the house at $50 had no easier
time than the smaller contingent arriving
| after 10. The new carriage entrance has
been closed in lately, and adds another i'm
portant feature to the comfort of the hun
| dreds who used 1t last night, and those who
| will in the future. The Marine Band was
| in the corridor, and after the four buglers
had sounded the call that meant the descent
of the receiving party to the blue room the
band kept up most interesting program of
| musical hits. The reception was over some
I what earlier than the first one held this
year, and the throng was scarcely ever in
conveniently congested at any point.
The President and Mrs. Roosevelt seemed
| to give special graciousness and cordial
| ity to their greeting. The former, by rea-
| son of recent too strenuous enjoyment of
woodchopping or the singlestick exercises,
| shook hands with his left hand, but the
grip was a hearty one The average guest
| on these occasions, after the long step-by-
| step approach to the receiving party, is SO
overwhelmed by the lights and the close
| contact with the grandeur of the blue room
as to have no clear idea of what really hap
pens as he or she passes the President
and his wife. This was exemplified last
one of the cleverest men at the capital and
| his charming wife. He explained, entirely
to her satisfaction, that the President had
not used his left hand, but had given the
Mrs. Shaw, Mrs Knox, Mrs. Payne and
Miss Wilson received on the line with the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt. The latter
| was richly dressed in white satin and pearls
and carried bouquet of lilies of the val
| ley. Mrs. Shaw was in white satin, Mrs.
Knox in white lace, Mrs. Payne in light
to-
and chiffon.
The chief guests Of the evening, the men,
| bers of the Supreme bench and families,

| lace; Mrs. White, white lace and silver

The chief justice and his daughter prom
enaded over the entire suite, and thus came
| in contact with all the guests. The asso-
ciate justices were also met at different
| points, their progress being equally de-
| layed by the presentations and handshakes.
