Afternoon Reception.


Afternoon Reception.
A large and delightful event of Fri
day was the afternoon reception at
which Mrs. 7, w. KEENAN, was hostess,
entertaining at her pretty home on
Alkaline street.
The rooms opened to the guests
were prettily decorated. In the liv-
ing room, where the receiving line
stood, the color motif was pink, en-
bodied by the use of pink carnations,
which were used with profusion in
every available point. The crystal
and black candlesticks were tipped
with pink shades In the reception
hall, her color scheme, typical of the
winter season, was red, and the flow
ers which were used in such charm
ing effect, We're poinsettia and carna-
tons, and the lights were shaded in
red. In the dining room, where Mrs.
Robert Field, Jr., Mrs. w. T. Cosby,
Maggie Lee, Allie Camp, Marie Row.
an, Corrie Haney, jamie Mcleod and
Ida Belle Camp presided, the decora-
tons were in yellow and white. The
table bore a hand-crochette cover and
had for a center-piece a plateau, on
which rested a cluster of yellow tulips
Cut glass naples held yellow and
white mints and almonds. On both
ends of the table was a cake stand of
cake with yellow icing. On the
buffet was a basket of narcissi. The
silver candlesticks held yellow t~fers
and shades to match, partly hid the
bright light of the tapers. Ice
cream with a hot marshmellow sauce,
with cake and coffee, was served
Ferns and ported plants added to the
effectiveness of the decorations.
The guests were welcomed by Mrs.
c. w. Rich and Mrs. Burr took them

made
President Taft is said not to have
asked for the nomination of any one OF
the men mentioned It is known he
would prefer to see nominated some
man known as a progressive, but has
not insisted upon picking his running
mate.
Governor Hadley probably is named

by the Is Roosevelt men on the New
Ork delegation Practically all of
them are friendly to the vice president,
and if they present his name, it is be-

report that Mr.. Sherman had said he
might seek the gubernatorial nominal
ton in New York and that he would
prefer this to denomination for vice
president
This report could not be confirmed
Senator Kenyon is the manager Of
the Cummins campaign, but mas al
ways been friendly to president Taft
having served under him as assistant

came from senator CumminS that ne
would not permit his name to be con-
s1dered for the vice presidency and this
started the Kenyon talk.
Mr. Wanamaker's name was brought
forth from the Pennsylvania delega-
ton, but they id not appear 10 be
greatly enthusiastic. Scattering dele
gates from number of states, however,
began to ask why not and soon the
boom was cOurSinC with others through
the hotel corridors.
1t is only a guess but many of the
leaders believe the nominee viii be
picked from the several men who may
address the convention, probably in
putting presidential candidates in nom

speculation or conferences on the sub
