sentasiyes, senator's and representa-
tiyes in congress. with many of the
great captains of industry present at
the 3rd annual dinner of the Gridiron
club tonight at the New Willard mark
ed the high tide of che clubs prosperi-
" and its achievements. Throughout
gentle satire, burlseQue and straight
comedy were the dominating notes in
the most successful dinner this famous
club OF Washington correspondents has
ever given. There were sharp con-
trasts, rirth and seriousness chasing
one another The tribute TO the dead
members OF the club abutting closely
upon burlesque Cuban revolution and
an exemplification of what happens in
the lawn tennis cabineu' which meets
with the president every day, Sundays
excepted, and volleys with him over
the nets. Probably the strongest fea-
ture of the dinner was the Gridiron
simple speller' and dictionary which
was issued in the form of booklet of
some forty pages containing quaint
spellings and exceedingly funny cuts,
illustrating the definitions.
The initiation of two new members
gave an opportunity for quiet dig at
the war department growing out OF
the discharge Of the three colored COM
panies of the 25th infantry at Browns
Vile, Texas Mr.. G. Arthur Williams,
of the Washington Herald and MIR.
Charles Willis Thompson, of the New
York Times were the two new members
taken in the club, the former imper-
sonaning an officer of the 25th infantry
while the latter was compelled to read
from his book, Party Leaders fthe
Time" wherein he speaks OF the presi-
dent, Vice President Fairbanks, Sena-
tor Spooner and Senator Aldrich.
Throughout the dinner bulletins were
read from the White House by dlnerent
members ofdhe club outlining possible
cabinet changes at the end or which
the club members sang to the tune or
Hes a Jolly Good elbow There
were songs without number. Secre-
tary Taft Secretary shaw and VICE
President Fairbanks being introduced
with characteristic melodies which put
everybody in good humor.
Throughout the dinner there were
telephone conversations held with un-
known personages in which opportunl-
tv was given to gently broil the guests
in the delicate manner for which the
club is famous.
