tanned last evening in the large banquet
hall of the New Willard with a musical
program, after which buffet supper was
| served to $50 members and their guests
The board on this occasion determined
| that it would have an evening with us
| friends in Congress and elsewhere with
| every opportunity for renewing old ao-
| quaintances and making new ones without
| the usual accompaniment of speeches. The
! experiment proved a most popular one. In
| place of the speeches were songs and Or
| chestral and other instrumental selections.
| After there had been a general miX-up
and exchange of greetings on the part OF
| the large assemblage. the guests being re-
ceived by a committee, buglar sounded
call that brought members and guests to
| attention. General George H. Harries then
announced the program and attention was
| given to it for over an hour Siumber
| sisting of W. D. Mcfarland, Alexander
Mosher, P. B. Turpin, H. c. Pearson; J.
Henry Kaiser. F. P. Reside, j. Waiter
Humphrey and c. w. Hancock, was the
first number of the program. cornet solo
by Frank Todhunter also proved extreme
ly popular. He played an air from Lu-
sing Don't You Cry" and Mr.. Humphrey
sang Down Deep in the Cellar, My Love
Nell' and -Four Leaf Clover, the last
two being in response to encores. Mr.. her
man Rakemann gave two violin numbers
| and Mr.. Todhunter was recalled to play
"Nevins Rosary" The concluding number
was THE Forest by the octet 10.

hosts escorted their guests to the end OF
| the big hall, where the buffet supper was
