At the conclusion of the game a dainty luncheon followed. rf The members of the Helen Taft club entertained in a delightful manner their husbands, Friday evening, at the prettily appointed home of Mrs. Harry Dennis, 210 Richmond avenue. Profuse decorations appropriate to St. Valentine's Day were used throughout the house. In the receiving line were Mrs. Dr. Bond, Mrs. Allen Coggshell, Mrs. E. C. Savage and Miss Jessie Coggshell. The reception room was beautiful in suitable decorations, one feature being a large " picture of Lincoln draped with the national colors. In thet living room, red hearts were used in a most effective manner. In the dining room the color scheme, red and white, was carried out. A pretty arrangement was an alcove embellished with potted plants, where punch was served during the evening. The serving table was rich in its appointments of cut glass. Vases filled with red and white carnations were placed about the room. A red glow was obtained in this room by the use of mammoth red shades made in the form of poppies.

MUSIC Hugo Heermann the world's greatest living classical violinist will be heard Monday evening in recital at the Gennett. This is one of the numbers in the course which is being given under the auspices of Professor Harris. v J Mr. Fritz Krull of Indianapolis who has a large class of vocal students in this city gave a recital before the Matinee Musicale of Muncie last week. Mr. Krull's program included a Schubert group; four song3 from Liza Lehman's song cycle, "The Daisy i Chain"; two songs by Schubert and several others. He also sang a group of his own musicale settings to the works of Robert Browning and .James Whitcomb Riley. Richmond musicians and others interested in. this line will be given a rare opportunity of hearing the Russian Symphony orchestra at some future date. An excellent description of the production from the pen of George P. Goodale' the well known Detroit writer and critic is: The combined labors of t!ie two creative geniuses, Mendelssohn and Shakespeare, supplemented by the work of the splendid body of musisians constituting the Russian Symphony orchestra of New York under the direction of Modest Altscliuler. and the work of those sympathetic Shakespearean interpreters, the Ben Greet players, not to emphasize the efforts of the premiere danseuse, soloists, and the children's chorus and

The Russian Symphony orchestra, is on a par with the other great musical organizations of the country, but the occasion of its appearance here as interpreter of Mendelssohn's exquisite music, takes on new importance by virtue of the added interest lying in the dramatic production of Shakespeare's "A Midsummernight's Dream," by the Ben Greet company. All the great composers have written incidental music to the Shakespeare "Dream," but that of Mendelssohn has been generally accepted as authorative, the overture alone insuring immorality. So great an organization is required for this production that the orchestra encroached upon the front rows of orchestra sests. "The Midsummernight's Dream" is the most imaginative of the bard'3 work. Its lines are part of the philosophy of the race; its poetic Imagery fascinates; its extreme fancifulness puts one W a wanton mood. The dramatist indulged in his ripest years in an intellectual abandonment that is charming and felicitous. Set to music such as Mendelssohn's and interpreted by so distinguished an orchestra, the music drama is indeed a rare treat.' e$8 jS The following is the program which will be given Tuesday evening, Feb. 16, at eight o'clock by a number of

Here is an unprecedented journey of a drifting: bottle from central Illinois to the Pacific ocean a 10,000 miles voyage in four years. A clerk in a store ttt BToomlngtoa on Jan. 27, 1900, wrote a letter which he Inclosed in a bottle and threw Into the Mackinaw river ten miles from town. Jesse Wilson of Santa Monica, Cal.. found the bottle off the California coast and communicated with the writer of the letter. The bottle must have voyaged down the Mackinaw, the Illinois, the Mississippi and so into the gulf; thence the strange and conflicting currents carried it clear round the Horn and up the Pacific coast, a most remarkable voyage indeed.

HEW QUARTERS AT THE LIBRARY MTlW Historical Society's Rare Collection Wilt Be a Fine Addition.

HONOR DR. ZACHEUS TEST SPECIAL BOOK PLATES WILL BE PLACED IN BOOKS OF LATE RICHMOND MAN. WHO WAS A FAMOUS SCHOLAR. Arrangements have just been com pleted between the authorities of the Morrisson-Reeves library and the Wayne County Historical society by which the headquarters of that society will hence forth be at the library instead of at the court house. The libray has granted the use of a room on the second floor for the purpose of providing a place for -the collections of historical data which the Wayne County Historical society has accumulated. The plan has met with great favor on both sides. The society has many valuable documents and papers which will augment and help to complete the Morrisson-Reeves files. There Is probably no other town in the middle., west it is stated, which has paid so much attention to the conserving of early records. Part of this is due to the existence of a library here for many years, and so city directories and the like have been kept from an early date. This is a great help to the genealogist. The plan which is on foot now is to add to these two collections, which will form a nucleus for the future development. As the library now stands second to

Gentlemen: Am only pleased to express my deepest appreciation of the beautiful singing tone quality of your Starr Minum Grand, whidh I have been using during my Cleveland engagement as Prima Donna Soprano of the Max Faetkenhauer Grand Opera Company. It is a wonderful piano in every respect, gives the greatest possible aid in the way of resonance and sustaining quality so much needed in the accompaniments for an artist. A piano of such artistic quality and true worth must bring to you the pat- ' ronage which your Company, as manufacturers, certainly deserve. Sincerely, ADELAIDE NORWOOD.

Puffs and curls and Marcel waves, it Is announced by Fifth avenue authorities, are to be driven out before the invasion of Greek fashions, and women will wear instead of bands of jewels and velvet, circling the plainest of Grecian coiffures. "Rats will disappear before the fashion invaders like leaves before a November wind." said a well known fashioner today. "The rat has had its day. that's all there is to it. Everything now is the Grecian coiffure. "If Fifth avenue cannot produce Grecian beauty, or something equal, if not superior, then it is not to be found anywhere at this day." remarked the fashioner. "The very newest style of hairdressing is straight no curls and waves, if you please parted on the right side, brought low over the forehead. Then it is brought loosely up from the neck and coiled, so that it reaches even with the top of the head. Then you just use your own taste with the rest "If you have a bit of black on your gown, a bit of black on hats and gowns is to be fashionable you use a black velvet band for the finishing touch.

Dr. Test held a remarkable place in the estimation of scholars all over the country and abroad. This was reflected in the books which he collected. Many of them are first editions of rare pamphlets of an erudite nature and are now out of print and difficult to obtain. On account of his high standing among the best informed of American philosophical workers, it is deemed especially fitting that his books shall serve as a memorial to his abilities
