The dance given last night by Mr..
and Mrs. Samuel Parker at their resi-
dence on Emma street as a farewell 10
their two young daughters Beatrice
and Muriel who leave for school in the
East on the Korea was one of the
prettiest dances that have been given
| for a long time. The rooms were very
tastefully decorated with pink and red
roses, and with a number of colored
! light transformed the beautiful home
into regular fairy palace The dane
ing began at nine o'clock on the Wal
Xxi Lanai and continued until the wee
small hours. Supper was served in the
garden at little tables at eleven o'clock
and was a very dainty and pleasant re-
past. The Ellis Quintette Club furnish
ed the music for the dancing, and a
number of new pieces were tried out
that proved to be very catching. Near
ly all the younger set were present,
and quite few of the young married
set. Mrs. Parker and the Princess
looked very handsome in their princess
gowns, and taking it all in all tie
tOilettes of the fair sex present were
the prettiest that have been seen for
a long time. Nearly two hundred and
twenty-five people were present.
An occasional correspondent writes
me from Washington that Miss Ethel
Roosevelt, who is still a schoolgirl is
nevertheless to bask in the limelight
this winter. She is to take the place
of her sister Alice, but it is predicted
that she will never attain the popu-
larity of Mrs. Longworths "She is
| growing" says my correspondent, Ito
be an exceedingly good-lOolling girl,
with fine face, trim figure, and car
riage, splendid poise, but she has not
! the innate faculty for endearing her
self to people, which is the hpapy gift
of Mrs Nicholas Longworth. When
Princess Ethel comes into her own and
really appears in the role of belle of
the White House, hers will be a des-
potic reign and every one will realize
that there is a young lady aboard She
dominates everything with which she
has anything to dos. F. Town Talk
