TWO SOCIAL EVENTS.

The weather man" was kind enough
to smile yesterday az the hour APP
preached for the reception given by
Mrs. George Miller, Mrs. Fred Miller
and Mrs. Edna Heiser at the beautiful
and well appointed home of Mrs.
George Miller in North Tenth street.
This was one of the most elaborate af-
fairs Of it's kind ever given in Rich
mond and will be long remembered by
many guests who enjoyed the function.
The Miller home is elegantly ar
ranged for function of this kind and
the decorations yesterday were simply
gorgeous making one feel as if they had
been transformed from grim winter in
to a beautiful garden of flowers. The
hours for the afternoon party were
from two until Ave o'clock. About two
hundred and fifty invitations had been
sent out and only very few regrets
were received. An out-of-town guest
was heard to remark upon the beauty
of the many homes in Richmond and
that the Miller home was one of the
ly depression.
AS to the decorations they were per
maps the most exquisite ever seen in
this city. The walls in the front parlor
were simply studded with daffodils, the
yellow and green making a handsome
decoration. To the east of this room
ts a large pere glass mirror. The daffo
dis were arranged in cut glass wall
pockets about this mirror while at the
base were many pots of palms and
ferns. Southern Ivy extended from the
foot to the top of the ceiling. The man
tie piece was banked with the daffo
dis and at the foot were many palms
and ferns. All the lights were capped
with dainty pink rose bud shades. In
the center Of the parlor was a gilt ia
bile holding q mammoth mound of the
daffodils. The effect was very pretty
The back parlor was decorated with
Richmond roses and red carnations
Two tall wicker vases filed with the
carnations were placed at either side
of the mantlepiece about which was a
pretty group of palms and ferns. The
chandelier in this apartment was orna
mented with the ivy. Between the door

Interest in the Climax popular voting

The Popular Vote.

The common belief that the presiden
tial vote in 1912 was less than the presi-
dental vote in 1908 is incorrect. Ac-
cording TO the official figures compiled
for the World almanac the total vote
this year was 1908, 660, as against
4,sSS. 442 four years ago, an increase
of las, 227
But only the socialists profited from
this larger vote. They alone made
gains. and very significant gains. Debs
vote in 1905 was 42O, 793; in 1912 it was
900, 672, an increase of more than 100
per cent
As for the Democrats. Wilson polled
total of 6, 293, 454, as against Bryan s
total Of, 6, 400, lOi in 1908, a decrease of
1l565O. Stranger still. the total vote
cast for Taft and Roosevelt was less
than the total Republican vote in 1908.
Taft's 1912 vo'e was 3,4s4,9 $50 and
Roosevelt's was 4,ll9.53s. Together
they polled 1904. SIS, which falls "A, 800
under Taft's total of 7,67S,9O four
years ago.
Even the Prohibitionists suffered from
apathy. Their vote in November was
only 2O6,275 compared with 253. 800.
This loss of Al, sos is nearly one-fifth of
the total
1t is curious fact that with the ex-
ception of New Hampshire all the New
England states cast more votes in 1912
than in 1908. The middle states of
New York, New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vania cast fewer votes in 1912 than in
1908. Ohio, Indiana Illinois, Wiscon-
sin, Nebraska and Iowa also took less
interest in the 1912 campaign than in
the 1908 campaign. The same is true
of the border states, Kentucky, Tennes-
see and Missouri.
There's no uniform rule applying to
the south. Alabama, for example. cast
more votes than in 1908 and Georgia
cast fewer votes. Texas showed large
increase. while South Carolina large
decrease. while Virginia's slump was
exactly 20 votes and Oklahoma's vas
s39.
The mountain sta es showed an in
crease. Colorado, Utah. Wyoming.
Montana and Idaho cast more votes
than they did in 1905 By reason of
woman's suffrage, California's vote
should have doubled, but her 1912 vote
was only 679, 527, as against ss6, 597 in
1908. Apparently nearly 100000 quail
fed citizens of California remained
away from the polls.
The most significant fact in all these
returns is the increase and distribution
o: the socialist vote 1t is not sec
tional votes, for the banner socialist
states in this election were Ohio, Penn
sylvania, Illinois, California, New York,
Oklahoma, Washington. Indiana, Wis
consin and Missouri in the order named,
while in Idaho more than 10 per cent. of
the total vote was socialist. This is
something for Democrats and Republi-
cans alike to think about seriously.

farmers to create a market in New York,
Chicago and other cities for Kentucky

er by parcel post. This can be done by
proper advertising" he said. ''The
country between Mt. Sterling and Louis

United States on account of the pasture
and the climate. The pasture gives the
butter a natural flavor and color that can
not be equaled anywhere else. The cli-
