WASHINGTON SOCIETY. The following published under a Washington dispatch In the Indianapolis News is of Interest to many: This has been a record breaking week In Washington society. Every night one or more large affairs have been given, while dinners, teas, re

ceptions and musicales have been

numberless. The reception to the dip

lomatic corps at the White House was

the chief event of the week and the most brilliant of its kind. The display of gowns and jewels was unusually sumptuous and the attendance rath

er larger than that of last year.

In the great gathering of people the person who attracted the most atten

tion was Mme. All Kull Khan, the wife

of the charge d'affaires of the Persian

legation. Her ideas of uniting things

occidental with those oriental were

carried out in her costume as they have been in her marriage and her life. She Is an American woman and before her marriage about ten years

ago, was Miss Florence Breed of Bos

ton. The gown she wore at the White House was of strictly modern design, while over it was thrown a loose garment something similar to a kimono, made of cloth of gold with a blue stripe running through it. At irst

glance one wondered what manner of covering it was. but on close Inspec

tion the beauty of the material more than made up for the oddity of the

shape, and most glances were admiring.

RECITAL MONDAY.

The most prominent musical event for the week is the recital to be given Monday evening at eight o'clock In

the Starr Piano parlors. The affair will be given by Mrs. Anna Diller

Starbuck of Iowa City, Iowa. Mrs.

Starbuck is well known to many here

as she was at one time head of the music department at Earlham college

and during her stay In this city figur

ed conspicuously in musical circles,

All persons and especially Mrs. Starbuck's former friends are invited to be the guests of the Starr Piano man

agement upon this occasion. No doubt the event will be a noteworthy one. The program will be an excellent one

and persons who are expecting to at

tend are looking forward to the event

with much anticipation.

PARTIES AT HOTEL. No doubt there will be several din ner parties given at the Hotel West

cott this evening as the excellent

menu served and the good music at tracts many.

FEBRUARY SOON HERE.

reoruary, tne month wnicn gave

George Washington birth, and which

claims St. Valentine as well. Is this

year to be devoted by the nation in

every state and every city to the

Father of His Country, to whose fort!

tude and tolerance the constitution of

the United States stands as a monument sacred to the country and his memory. During February in every school the day will be celebrated In some way, perhaps by appropriate exorcises. Parties are always popular on the twenty-second and no doubt a number of hostesses will entertain on this day. Favors for the occasion are always very pretty at this time and soon the local shops will be displaying a number of unique emblems. These will all however be in commemoration of Washington.

PROGRAM FOR CLUB. The following, according to the year book is the program to be presented at the Tourist club meeting Friday evening of this week: Calcutta, Benares, Agra, Darjeeling and the Himalayas, Dr. Harry N. Holmes. Current Topics, Mr. S. S. Stratton.

Music

VESPERS THIS EVENING. This evening at five o'clock there will be Vesper services held at the First Presbyterian church. All are Invited.

MUSIC BY CHOIR. Music at the First English Lutheran church today will be led by the Senior choir.

RUSSIAN ORCHESTRA. Tho immense success won by the Russian Symphony orchestra of NewYork In a series of concerts given at the Western Pennsylvania Exposition In Pittsburg, where they were heard

every day for an entire week, has

been many times duplicated In other cltie during the past few weeks.

Those who have been fortunate enough

to hear this great symphony orchestra unhesitatingly rank it with the best

orchestras of its kind in existence Modest Altschuler, who has directed

Its musical destines for the past sev

en seasons and who is now directing It during its eighth year, has done more for the Russian composers In America than any other one man. But

in making known the music of his

great countrymen. Mr. Altschuler has

borne in mind the fact that It is quite

necessary -to present the audiences the orchestral writings of composers of other nationalities. The popularity of the Russian Symphony orchestra is based quite as much upon the fact that the music played is music of interest and worth as upon the excellence of its Interpretation. It is a difficult task to play orchestral music as it should be played, but it Is a more trying task to choose compositions which have the proper public appeal. In the concert to be' given In this city by the Russlon Symphony orchestra on March 17th at the Gennett, the numbers to be heard will live long In the memory of all who are fortunate enough to be present. The complete program, which will be announced later, is certain to include novelties that have beeen approved by critical New York and other au

diences. Further than this four emi

nent singers will appear as soloists with the organization which is certain to lend Interest and particular varlely to the concert. Such entertainment as that provided by the Russian symphony orchestra comes but seldom and on this. Its trans-continental tour, all who can should avail themselves of the opportunity of hearing it

VESPER SERVICES. Vesper 'services will be held this evening at four-thirty o'clock at the Fir6t English Lutheran church. The public is invited to attend.

SPECIAL MUSIC. There will be special music today at the First Methodist church, rendered by the choir under the direction of Mrs. Grace Gormon.

INTRODUCE NEW SOLOIST. The Symphony concertslast week Introduced a new soloist to Cincinnati,

Madame Olga Samaroff, whose splen

did Rubenstein concerto captivated

the audiences. Madame Samaroff is

of especial Interest to Cincinnati, for she is a cousin of the Hickenloopers, and on Monday Mrs. J. M. With row (Sara Hickeniooper) will give a breakfast In her honor at her delightful home on Reading road. Madam Samaroff was born at the army post at Galveston, Texas, and when,- still a baby was taken by her grandmother to Paris, where she was

educated. She comes honestly by her

great musical gifts, for her greatgrandmother, whose name she has taken as a nom de guerre, Olga Saniaroffff. was a brilliant actress and the court singer at St. Petersburg. This great-grandmother married a German, an "Intellectual," and the founder of one of the great universities near Frankfort. It is this strain in Mme. Samaroff the mingling of temper ment and intellect which makes Mme Samaroff's playing so satisfactory. When fourteen DePacbmann the great pianist, wanted to present Mme. Samaroff In concert, but her family at that time had other plans for her. She studied for six years at the Conservatoire In Paris, one of the greatest schools of drama and music in the world, and later went over to Berlin to complete the foundation of her musical education. There she met, and later In America married a brilliant Russian diplomat stationed at the German court, and four years afterward returned to her people in the states and arranged her debut in New York, which proved an instantaneous success. She has been a favorite with the audiences of the Boston and the Chicago orchestras, and during her tour with Geraldine Farrar she shared honors with that fascinating artiste, whose laurels are numerous. Mme. Samaroff has been stopping at the Sinton with her mother, Mrs. Carlos Hickeniooper, a charming woman, who has lived half her life abroad, and her brother, Mr. George Hickeniooper.

Trick With a Rope. Procure a rope the size of a clothesline and about twelve or fifteen feet long. Ask some one to tie your wrists together with a handkerchief; then get him to draw the rope through the arms and hold the two ends tightly. Bid, him stand as far away as the double ropes will permit The performer is now to drop the rope from his arms without untying the handkerchief. To accomplish it he must pull tightly against the person holding the ends of the rope. This enables him to draw the rone well In between the wrists until on slacking the rope the fingers can easily reach It and draw it through the handkerchief until sufficient is through to permit one hand to slip through the noose of rope which Is formed by this last movement A slight pull from the assistant causes the rope to fall free of the hands and arms.

Elephants as Swimmers. Elephants delight in abundance of water and enter it freely, often remaining In It for a lonp time and with grest evident enjoyment! Sometimes they swim not only with the body but the head under water, the only part elevated above it being the extremity of the trunk.
