Society Gay at the National Capital
Continual Round of Luncheons, Teas, Din
ners and Dances Occupy the Smart Set.
ASHINGTON. D. a. Jan. 23.-(Spe-clal
Correspondence.) With the
weather as an Incomparable ally
to every hostess, life at the Capital this
week has been exceedingly gay. In fact,
there has been a continual round of
luncheons, teas, dinners and -dances, and
many have been tempted to open air pleas
ures by the sudden change from Wintry
blasts with knee-deep snow to balmy air
and clear streets. With so many people
out, one Is inclined to wonder who is left
to keep open house, until reminded of the
way society does Its calling at the Capi
tal. The city Is divided Into four sections, and
each section has its day when the up-to-date
hostess may be at home to her
friends. On that day. the resident streets
In her vicinity are alive with well-dressed
woman and handsome equipages. The
next day the scene Is changed, and anoth
er series of streets Is in gala dress as
though all the world had a holiday. This
plan of receiving by days is further sup
plemented by each circle taking its own
day. an arrangement by which the lady
of many calls Is enabled to greatly ex
pedite matters. Few, however, equal the
record of 30 calls In an afternoon, made
recently by the wife of a prominent Sen
ator. In this particular. Mrs. Me teal f,
wife of the new secretary of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor, Is the pride
of her California contemporaries and the
envy of her confreres In the Cabinet, hav
ing reached the high water-mark of 1000
calls since the first of December, without
the aid of a social secretary But then.
Mrs. Metcalf Is an Indefatigable worker,
and she knows her Washington, as she
knows her home in the West. To lose a
day at the beginning of the season, is to
be the rest of the Winter struggling to
straighten one's calling list.
By common consent and long usage.
Monday Is sacred to the use of Supreme
Court families, and such others, who. like
Mrs. Loeb. wife of the secretary of the
President chance to live where that day
Is observed. Tuesday Is quite as perma
nently regarded as Congressional day,
while the next two days of the week are
usurped by the Cabinet and the Senate,
respectively. .Friday and Saturday are
good suburban days, and are also fre
quently observed by members of the diplo
matic corps, though Sunday is a pet day
with the latter for formal luncheons or
dinners.
This week, the day was celebrated as the
Russian Christmas by the Countess Cas
sinl and Madame Boutakoff, of the Czar's
Embassy. Miss Alice Roosevelt and her
house guests, were the guests of honor at
the Christmas luncheon a la Russian
style, while the evening meal was given
for the Embassy staff.
The Italian Ambassador and Baroness
Mayor des Planches, who, since the de
parture of the Austrian Ambassador and
his wife, are the hosts par excellence of
the diplomatic corps, gave a beautiful
luncheon on Monday with M. Funck
Bretano, of France, as their sspeclally
honored guest. The party was entertained
at the French Embassy for dinner, and
returned to the Italian Embassy for a
brilliant evening reception and dance. At
the last affair, the Ambassador and his
wife were assisted by their house guests
for the Winter, the Misses Lobel. of Paris,
than whom few foreign guests have been
more popuar. While here. Monsieur Bre
tano delivered an Interesting lecture In

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 25.
(Special correspondence.) A new
crusade against divorce ha3 been
Inaugurated by the ministers of the
San Francisco churches. The fight Is
not to be carried on single-handed by
any one denomination, but all will Join
In the common cause. The movement
was inaugurated on Monday when Rev.
Frederick W. Clampett, of Trinity
Episcopal Church, appeared before a
meeting of Methodist ministers, out
lined his plans and asked their aid.
Dr. Clampett cited the case of Mrs.
Tels and Hart McKee, and used it as
his theme. He. declared both to be a
menace to society. The preacher then
roundly scored his brethren who act
for such couples for the sake of the
handsome fee which is generally forth
coming. Dr. Clampett secured the co
operation of the Methodist body, and
later was able to announce that the
Congregatlonalists and Presbyterians
had offered to join forces with him.

The present Legislature has under
taken to entirely revise the system of
taxation In the state. The Governor 13
anxious for taxation reform, and has
persuaded a majority of the Legislature
that the best course is to throw over
board the present system, and to adopt
more up-to-date methods. A committee
has now been at work for some weeks,
and has In general devised a scheme
which will be presented to the Legislature
for action.
One of the most important features of
this new scheme Is a tax on corporations.
On a very conservative estimate, It is
figured that the value of the securities of
the corporations of the state will reach
J20O,0OC,C0O. On a basis of $1.50. a low
rate, this tax would yield a revenue of
$3,000,000. Another phase of the scheme
will be a direct instead of a collateral In
heritance tax. This Is a tax easily col
lected and not burdensome. It will mean
an additional Income of $750,000 a year to
the state.
Very gratifying to the business men of
San Francisco Is the report Just made by
Collector of the Port Stratton. showing
that the trade at the Port of San Fran
cisco has expanded more rapidly in the
past six months than that of any other
port in the United States. The six months
of 1S03 ending on December 31, showed
an export trade of $19,479,310. The six
months ending December 31, 1904, showed
that the value of the. goods shipped from
San Francisco to all foreign ports was
$26,074,567. This enormous Increase of about
33 1-3 per cent Is ascribed largely to the
war in the Orient. However. It Is felt that
