nj Minister Of the Union OF South
Africa and Mrs. Ralph Will
liam Close gave party and
nobody came! Yesterday afternoon
the brand-new Legation. opposite the
British Embassy on Massachusetts ave-
nue., was seething with guests. The
avenue was black with cars for blocks
and blocks, as the entire diplomatic
corps, or so 1t seemed, and most of the
residents OF Washington Wended their
way to pay their respects to the Min
lister and Mrs. Close and to see that
they are truly settled in their new
surroundings. And settled they are,
and nicely so, in beautiful Legation
perfectly planned for comfortable liv-
ing and ideal for entertaining.
The hall downstairs is large and
spacious, with not Just one, but two
rooms for the ladies' coats, obviating
the usual crush at large gathering
when ten or more women try to get
their wraps at the same moment.
From the hall, with its light-colored
walls, dark woodwork and a bright
red carpet, extends double flight OF
stairs leading into another spacious
hall, on the left of which stood the
Minister and Mrs. Close in the en-
trance to the drawing room Mrs.
Close, in wine red lace and chiffon
gown, wore deep purple orchids on
her shoulder, all most becoming with
her snoW-White hair
The general feeling OF every one
present was that the Legation has
been perfectly planned for receptions
OF some size, for in spite of the large
number Of guests there was no feeling
that one was hemmed in without
chance OF fresh air. The large living
room, complete with comfortable sofas
and chairs and a great fireplace, opens
into a smaller room, again CHEEKY
with fire light, and of that again
another smaller room which leads both
into the dining room and into the
hall.
Outstanding is the woodwork used
throughout the house, which the Min
lister and Mrs. Close announced is
Ocotea Bullata, from South Africa,
and is comparable to the stink
wood" Of our Southwest. The din
ing room is completely paneled
in this lovely dark wood with
beautiful grain and patina; the din
ing room table. too, is fashioned of
the same wood, not to mention a
beautiful cupboard with glistening
brass locks and hinges in the small
salon.
Each room Is curtained in soft
colored brocade, hanging from mold
ed wooden valences With vases Of
flowers, simply arranged but all the
more beautiful, on every table, the
picture was one of charm and home
illness, and the Legation is sure to be
a successful one
The day was complete with the
appearance of the dean of the diplo-
matte corps, his Britannia Majesty's
Ambassador, Sir Ronald Lindsay; to
mention other members of the corps
would be like reading the little blue
book" One of the earliest arrivals
was Mrs. Hennen Jennings and her
daughter; Mrs. Jennings Hackett, also

Stations in Mexico.

SOURCE of much of the interference
being suffered by many United
States and Canadian stations and
heard frequently to the northward,
there are now 80 broadcasting sta
tions in Mexico. according to a De-
partment of Commerce report from its
commercial attache in Mexico City.
OF these II are official stations. mean
ing they ere eovernment-contro
and most Of the remainder are in pri-
vate hands.
Although Mexican law permits the
licensing Of stations only to Mexicans
or to societies and corporations or
ganized under the laws of Mexico, manv
of these stations are located along
the border and are known to b
backed by American capital. Note
worthy among them is the SUPER
power station operated by DR.. John
r. Brinkley.
The Mexico City report estimates
there are now 25O.000 radios in all
Mexico, or less than in the State of
Texas. OF these some 10000 are in
the federal district embracing Mex
leo City. About SO per cent of Mexican
radio purchases are of American ORR
gin. and it is estimated some 81 SOC, 900
worth of radio equipment will have
been sold to Mexico during 1896.

from United States consular and diplo-

THE United States now has exactly
33 international short-wave sta
tionS licensed to about 20 operators,
some of which operate on two or three
wave lengths under separate sets of
call letters. and almost all of which
are affiliated with regular broadcast
ing stations in order to carry Simul-
taneouS programs. The minimum
power used on these international
wave lengths is 5000 watts and a few
are licensed up to 10000. 1t is un-
derstood the Federal Communications
Commission is considering urging
practically all license holders to in
crease their powers to gain wider and
better coverage.
