Mrs. A. M. Crawford was tho hostess
at beautifully arranged party Thurs
day afternoon, which was truly in honor
of the roses. 1t was delightful in
every detail-the house was fragrant
with roses everywhere. The reception
hall was in pink roses and ferns. The
parlors were in red and green. Baskets
and vases full Of red roses and Oregon
grape were effectively used. The din.
ing room was especially pretty in cream
and green. Cream roses and Callas,
with the ferns and plants made it a
lovely retreat. Little Miss Leonore
Powell attired as a rosebud, carrying
a wand of roses attended the door.
The invitations were hand painted La
France roses, while the score cards were
carried out in the same way.
The amusement Of the afternoon was
Rose contest, in which Mrs, George
Waters won the first prize, beautiful
hand painted rose plate, while Miss
Gabrielson was awarded the consola.
tion, a large bouquet of roses.
The rose idea was carried out in tho
oainty refreshments and ices.
The hostess was assisted in serving
by Mrs. II, c, Smith, sr., Mrs Powell,
Mrs. @. b. shelton, Misses Nina Parrish
Ella Wonderli, Ruth Gabrielson, Isa.
bella Aekerman and Jottie Watson.
The many handsome gowns lent ex-
quisite eOloring to the scene. The whole
affair was very pleasant as nothing was
left undone toward the pleasure Of the
guests, and added fresh laurels TO Mrs
Crawford's achievements as hostess.

The social season Of the Capital City
has been very dull since the passing Of
Eastertide, but this week has been q
very brilliant one, and society ladies
have been out in numbers attending
the various functions given.
Social Event
One of the most brilliant affairs Of
the week was the afternoon party given
by Mrs. j. d. Sutherland and daughter,
Mrs. s. G. Schaefer, at the pleasant
home Of the former at 1913 Cottage
street Thursday afternoon. It was
given in honor of Miss Mabel Jones of
"Labish Meadows" whose wedding is
to take place early in June.
The Sutherland home was elaborately
decorated. There was profusion Of
roses everywhere, making the rooms
veritablo gardens The front parlors
were in white and pink, Indian baskets
Of La France and La Marque roses be-
ing used, while wavy ferns and beauti.
full potted and hanging plants lent
themselves effectively to tho scene.
The back parlor was especially pretty.
Red was the predominating color here,
and baskets and vases Of the fragrant
long stemmed American Beauties and
geraniums were used. The fragrant
rooms filed with the handsomely cos
tuned ladies was indeed a very pleasant
scene.
The entertainment Of the afternoon
was guessing game. Each one was
to write little poem on the wedding
day, which was very interesting. Mrs.
Claud Catch proved the most poetical, |
and was awarded first prize. Mrs f. Il.
Slater captured the second.
Misses Ryth Catch and Ida Jones as
sisted in the serving Of the ices and
cake.
The hostesses are both charming la

ton of visitors. In 1858 fire burned out
the upper story of the main building and
the large north and south towers The
nucleus collection of 10000 mineral specf-
mems left by Smithson was lost
When the government was preparing for
the centennial exhibition of 1876 it had
arranged extensive collections illustrating
the animal and mineral resources, fisheries
and Indian customs of the United States.
At the close Of the exposition it not only
had all of these exhibits on its hands but
tons Of other curiosfties donated by thirty
different nations represented at the CEN
tennial The national museum of the
Smithsonian building had no room for these
collections, which had to be stored in the
old "Armory building" on the Mall Con-
gress soon afterward appropriated quar-
ter of million for the present brick build
ing, which had to be put up hastily and
cheapy. Its architecture, which has been
officially described "a modernized
Romanesque." has always been unsightly,
and through a bad piece of laundering it
was placed so near to the Smithsonian
building that the lack of harmony between
the two structures is glaring. However, in
interior arrangement, 1t had few If any
superlorS as museum building.
1t is 300 feet square, and the nation had
only one-thirtfeth of the present number of
specimens for installation when it was
opened Its first use was for the Garfield
inaugural ball. When the building was
scarcely more than a year old Secretary
Baird complained of its inadequacy in his
report to Congress.
The architects of the new building
are Hornblower and Marshall of Wash
ington, and the construction is under
the superintendent of Bernard r. Green,
superintendent of the Library of Con-
gress. Mr.. Green In his supervision of
the magnificent library building had the
unique distinction of completing a great
public structure considerably within the
appropriation and of handing back to Uncle
Sam the money saved.
