For M SIS Crewe.

To Mrs. Walter Madden the younger
society folk are indebted for some
very charming hospitalities This sum
mer, not the least delightful being the
party OF Monday afternoon given by
Mrs. Madden in honor Of her guest,
Miss Crewe of Liberty, Mo.
As color scheme the hostess chose
yellow and white which was used in
all the floral decorations of summer
flowers with graceful touches of ever
greens. The progressive conversa-
ion" contest provoked much merit
ment since the gues' being women,
all felt reasonably sure they stood an
excellent chance of winning the prize.
To add zest to the game the hostess
imposed penalty for saying yes
or no during the conversation.
Each gue1t was suppl ed with pro-
grams, modelled on those used in the
ball room and were TO talk Just as
long as Miss Annie Thompson played
on the piano; where she stopped, they
were TO stop and choose partners for
the next conversation.
Half the programs had green pen
ellis to take the part of the young
men in checking the programs.
Each girl was given bunch of five
o, che ca il ''Vng
or mo" she had to forfeit daisy.
Mrs. Tom Frame, Mrs. Jolly and
Mrs. Bass cut for the prze, Mrs
Frame winning.
The booby prize was contested for
by Mesdames Sutherland and Apple
and Misses Ainsworth and Roper, an
immense bouquet of daisies tied with
yellow tulle.
Refreshments OF sandwiches, olives
fruit salad. waters and grape juice
were served Mesdames w |. Cruce

The Beardsley Sisters?

How many of them are there?
Some say there are five-but MISS
Hunter is authority for the assertion
that there are but two of them.
The Beardsley Sisters at the Ma
iestic are singing to crowded houses
each evening and are the highest
type of vaudeville-in fact Miss Hun
ter claims they have not an equal.
Both have excellent voices and are
not compelled to confine their songs

Your man may be eccentric, ~
Vane remarked as, rather late in
the evening, he and Ronald sat
down to an excellent dinner; but
he can certainly cook"
The two men talked about former
cruises Of the Hawk and similar
topics while the steward and the
cabin-boy wtre present; but, when
they had gone and the cigars were
alight. Vance suddesly became grave
and thoughtful and, after minute
or two, he rose, opened the door,
listened for moment, then closed
it and shot the bolt.
Now We can have our talk, Ca

Vane stretched out his hand and
the two men shook on it. Thee

then, in a still lower voice, Vane
said:

Vane nodded, and smoked N 3

standing mis- faith in Ronald, he was
reluctant to unbosom himself '1a's

A YOUTH ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.

James Cook, twenty years old, called
upon Miss Jessie Windsor at the home
of Mr.. James NJ. Davis, 1908 Prince
street. on Saturday night, and accord
ing to a statement made by the young
woman, Cook, after a quarrel, pulled
out a revolver and said, IN end it all"
and shot himself. After DIR. Delaney
had been summoned he was hur ried to
the Alexandria Hospital, where it was
found that the bullet entered the fourth
and fifth ribs on the right side. Young
Cook, was Employed in a tailoring
establishment in this city.
Young Cooks condition had inn
proved somewhat this morning.
There is more than one version OF
the affair. One is that the young
woman has recently been re-
ceiving the attentions OF young man
in Washington, and that Young Cook,
after attempting to induce Miss Wind
sor to cease receiving his attention, shot
himself 1t is also said that two shots
we're fired, one OF which burned Miss
Windsor's arm while she was endeav-
oring to prevent her sutton from shoot
ing himself. People, however, who
were in the house at the time say but
one shot was fired.
Members Of the young mans family
deny positively that there was any at
tempt on his part to commit tuicide,
but say his wound was accidentally in
flicted.

BATTERY RODGERS COVE.

As has been stated, the work OF
throwing an earthen retaining wall
across Battery Rogers cove, prepare
tory to the harbor improvement work
to start there shortly under the dlrec-
ton Of army engineers, has been com
menced. A fleet Of scows and dredges
employed.
The embankment will run in a line
north from Jones's point, near the light
house. to the Alexandria shipyard. The
large quantity of material to be exca-
waited from the river channel at Alexan-
dria will be pumped into the space.
The strange claim that the land made
by the dredging operations will belong
to the District of Columbia is being
argued. This will. of course, be dis
puted by the abutting property owners.
1t is probable that the state OF Virginia
will also take part in the controversy
as the reclaimed land will form the
eastern termini of several streets OF the
city.
