BEAUTIFUL
PARTIES.


Miss Grace Mae Plank has been
honored during the last few days with
some, if not the prettiest parties, that
have ever been extended bride in this
city. Accounts of them are as follows:
Thursday afternoon a fruit shower
was given her by Mrs. James Younger
and Miss Louise Babbage. After the
guests arrived at Mrs. Younger's they
were invited across the lawn by Miss
Babbage to a Heart Hunt at her home.
1t took place in the parlor which was
gorgeously decorated in autumn foliage.
The colonial mantel was banked in huge
punches Of golden rod and thirteen sun
flowers hung from the chandelier. At
the end of the string tied to each
blossom was hidden heart and each
guest was directed to unwind the thread
until she had found the treasure on
which was written her fortune. Miss
Plank luckily found the heart with the
ring, Miss Eva Plank, the money heart,
Miss Ray Heyser, the thimble and Miss
Marion Bowmer discovered the darning
needle. The bride was gladden. bv
many cans of rare fruit which she re-
ceived just before the refreshments
were served in the dining room at the
Younger home.
Weather forecast for FRIDAY Sen
TENDER eighteenth. Miscellaneous
showers from three to five O'Clock P. M
followed by sunshine and fair weather
like Gracious Mae" was the invitation
issued by Miss Jennie Mabel Harris and
accepted by quite a number Of Miss
Plank's best friends. The occasion
was one Of continuous showers Of
pleasures during the entire party. The
game blindsfold was PLAYED in the
library and the bride was soon purpose
ly caught. Within a few minutes after
the kercheif was placed over her ewes
she was showered with exquisite Gifts
About five O'Clock the guests were in
vited into the large spacious DINING,
room where an elegant fruit luncheon
of two courses was served. The table
was most attractive, Japanese parashutes
and new rubber boots occupied the
center. The place cards were paner
parasols and the idea Of a shower was
uniquely carried out in every detail.

Mrs. Shelby Conrad complimented
Miss Plank Saturday afternoon with a
kitchen shower. The entertainment
was very novel and furnished much
pleasure to every one present as we'll
as the guest of honor. Mrs. Conrad
was assisted in entertaining bv Mrs.
Sam Conrad, Mrs Ridgewav. Mrs.
Wickliffe DeHaven and Miss Kate
Oglesby. The guests almost filed a
book with recipes for The bride. besides
giving her many nice presents. Miss
Plank, assisted by her friends, was kept
busy for some time hunting clothes pins
and to each pin was tied a spoon, a pan
or something very convenient for the
kitchen and laundry. Just before the
girls made their departure most delici-
Gus ices and cakes were handed them.

Miss Mamie DeHaven was a charm
ing hostess yesterday morning to a re-
ception at her home on the hill, given
complimentary to Miss Plank. The
hours from 10 to II O'Clock were most
pleasantly spent by the honored guest
and her friends.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Short Contracts Put Out in Monday $
 Trading Prompt Price Recovery.

New York, Feb. 1S.-The short con tracts which were put out in yester- days declining stock market made the source of the demand which carried prices towards the recovery to-day. The bears were prompted to recover partly by the lack of veritication of some of the rumors which helped to carry prices downwards yesterday, but more decidedly by the fact of the de cline offering a small profit in the buying of the stocks. The market dwindles to narrower proportions from day to day and the professional trad CTS are eager, therefore, to take quick profit when it offers. The re- covery to-day was spotty and inter- rupted and there were points of con tinued weakness in the list. As the recovery preceded the demand less ened and left the trading, at times, in condition of stagnation. The news of the day was not factor The cop per industry is center of depression and securities of companies involved in 1t are showing lower prices, in some eases, than prevailed during the panic episode last fall. That metal declined again to-day both in London and at the New York metal exchange, and accommodating stocks in Europe threat en a discontinuance of the only de- mand that has been factor of any importance in the trade for some time past.
