THE SUNDAY OEEGOXIAN, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 8, 1905.
Conquest." given by the Idaho Com
mission on Tuesday evening:, quite ful
filled, the pleasant anticipations -which
the previous announcement of it had
created. Miss Hammell's sympathetic
rendition of various scenes of Oregon
history as told In Mrs. Dyq's popular
book brought before her audience
vivid pictures of pioneer1 days. Mrs.
Dye was present, and expressed her
self as much gratified with Miss Ham
mell's selections and rendition. The
affair vrns to have taken place In the
Auditorium Annex, but the rain ren
dered this impossible, and a space was
cleared in the large exhibit hall of tho
Idaho building for the seating of the
guests and the erection of a platform.
Miss Hammell showed an effective
stage presence In her gown of whlto
chiffon done over pink satin. Her
corned by Fortlanders as well as by his
confreres at the Exposition. Colonel Alt
man has made the long trip a era? 3 the
continent three tlmea since the Fair
opened, and Portland appreciates his In
terest in Its Exposition. It Is. understood
that Commissioner jLuco, of New York,
who was expected to come out again,
will be unable to do so. Mr. Luce's son
Is to be married in Montreal, October 10.
Fortlanders arc naturally somewhat in
terested In this event, because of their
very agreeable acquaintance with Miss
Margery Luce, the young man's sister,
who was here early during the Exposition
season.
Tho hospitality of the Walla "Walla host
esses has been of a kind to teach Eastern
visitors that the "Western Idcd. of It Is

'Society" Is for tho most part spending
its mornings now in visits to favorite
modistes and milliners. Heads of dress
making establishments have been holding
dally morning receptions for two weeks
past. Many ladies -confess to a depleted
wardrobe, and. the all'-absorblng question
of tho hour for tberh -is, 'What Is tho
latest news from Parte, from New Tork
and Chicago?" One lady jocosely ad
mitted: "There has been bo .much-' going
on all Summer that I haven't had time
to sew a button on, and I've reached the
point where I simply must have some
thing new to wear before I can go any
where." It has 'been difficult to sfop to
think of selecting materials and holding
conferences with ' Madame when there
have been so many other things to en
gross attention, and so every one has
waited until Exposition festivities were
practically at an end.
"Weddings go merrily on In spite of
Jupiter Pluvius, and September and Octo
ber seem, to , be winning the laurels of
Juno as bridal months. Moreover, there
are several hew engagements whispered
which may soon be announced. One cler
gyman reportB having officiated at 11 wed
dings since October began.
.' The ladles of "Walla "Walla, headed by
the wife of Mayor Hunt, have made merry
at tho Exposition, with no abatement of
enthusiasm. In spite of the "Oregon mist"
to which they, are not accustomed. Social
affairs in our local contingent have been
dfew .and It is probable that' there will
not be much -entertaining on a large scale
until the now dresses and gaments are
finished.
, Mrs. James William Benham, wife of
the commissioner from Arizona, gave a
breakfast at the New York building on
Monday, In honor of Miss Estelle Reel,
who Is the superintendent of the Govern
ment Indian schools. Miss Reel was In
Portland about a month ago, but was in
disposed at that time, and her friends
could not entertain for her. Ladies in
vited to meet her on Monday were Mrs.
J. B. Montgomery, Mrs. Cyrus Dolph, Mrs.
Frank Warren, Mrs. Gordon "Voorhees,
Mrs. A. M. Benham, Mrs. Warren Thomp
son. Mrs: Walter Burrell, Mrs. Estelle
Houghton. Mrs. De Lancey Ellis, Mrs.
George McBride and Mrs. Fairclough.
Mrs. Gootle was unable toxbe present on
account of a severe cold. The table was
attractive with its embellishment of red
and white asters and sprays of scarlet
salvia spreading "Brora the center out
towards the edge. Mrs. Goode was ex
pectpd to be among the guests, but was
detained .at home by illness, and small
Dewey Ellis was called in to prevent a
"thirteen" table. Coffee was served In
one of the "suites upstairs, which was
arranged for the purpose. Mr. and Mrs.
Benham, who have been in Portland all
Summer, are leaving on the 18th. They
go to Farmlngton. N. M, reaching it by
a C0--mlle ' "Journey 'on horseback from
DUrango,. Colo. Later," they go to New
York for the Winter.
-
Mr. and Mrs. Fairolough, who have been
guests of Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Goode, re
turned to Chicago dn Wednesday. A
number of Portland hostesses wished to
entertain in .honor of Mrs, Fairclough,
but-4ier stay hero proved shorter than
was' expected, and they were unable to
do-so.
Mr. Edmund Giltner and his charming
fiancee," Miss Zora Mae Forrester, were
among the guests at a small dinner given
oii Wednesday evening by Mrs. George
McBride- to several newly engaged young
people. Very appropriately, the table
was,, decked1 with bride roseg, and very
appropriately, tiny pink cupids, surmount
ing -candy hearts,- -were- -placed at each
plate as souvenirs. . .The. arrows held
poised by the pretty cupids were aimed In
mock challenge at the hearts that the
little God of Love had already wounded.
Mrs. McBride left yesterday for Califor
nia, where she will Join ex-Senator Mc
Bride. Several small card parties have been
g von during the past week in honor of
Miss Sprague, of Tacoma, who Is visit
ing Miss Stott.
.
Mrs. "William Jones, of Tacoma. isto
be tho guest of Mrs. Morton Insley dur
ing the- coming week, and several enter
tainments in her honor are (planned. Mrs.
Jones was one of the hostesses for Taco
ma week, but had little time then either
to .see the Exposition or to accept tho
Invitations that wer then extended to
her by Portland friends. Following tho
arrangements now made. Mrs. Houghton
will give a bridge party on Tuesday for
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Insley another on Wed
nesday and Mrs. J. Wesley Ladd a. lunch
eon on Wednesday.
Mrs. A. L. Maxwell gave a delightful
card parts, followed by a tea, on Friday
aftornoqn, which must be counted among
ttie most enjoyable affairs of the early
Fall. The card party consisted of six
tables and was in honor -of Mra. Oakes
and Miss Van Winkle, who have been
visiting Mrs. Gauld. Mrs. Maxwell's
prizes came from the arts and crafts
shop, the first being a paper, knife, won
by Mrs. J. Wesley Ladd and the second
a tekoe vase, won by Miss Susio Stott.

Mis. C. E. S. Wood, Mrs. Hcltshu. and
Mrs. H. W. Goode la planning to take a
trip East soon after the close of the Ex
position. Mrs. GooQe's Summor hag been
so filled with tho social demands made on
her as wife of the president of the Expo
sition that she is much in need of a rest.
People who know how f-lncerely she has
tried to fulfill her difficult part to the
.satisfaction of everybody realize that tho
strain on her has been great. It Is un
doubtedly true, to quote the Seattle Times,
that "Mra Goode has made many friends
for Portland during the Exposition sea-son,-V
and Portlanders. who -appreciate
this and appreciate the sincerity" of her
efforts will hope to see her come back
feeling refreshed and Invigorated.
Portland people v.'ho have had the privi
lege of going through the. Exposition art
galleries in company with Dr. ISHzabeth
Denlo and of listening to her Informal
lecture anont the art exhibits are en
thusiastic over'Jihe admirable way in
which she "illuminates" and supplement
tho Impressions cSie gains when going
alone. "An hour, spent with "Miss Denlo
is worth a weeKbyVone's self," is the
dictum of one enthusiast. An- effort is
being made to have Miss Denlo givo her
Illustrated lecture on "Modern, American
and European Art" lnJ Pprtland before
she leaes for the East. She is to give
this lecture at several polnts'en route.

man and her daughter. Miss Sara Nie
man. have likewise been guests of Mrs.
Mears. Mrs. Nieman is a daughter of
Senator Frye, or Maine. She Is now in
Seattle, where her sons are in business.
It Is understood that several of the most
desirable works of art on exhibition at
the Exposition galleries are to remain in
Portland. Several more are being dis
cussed as poss!bl6 purchases by Portland
ers, who can well afford to buy expensive
art works, and it is expected that the
coming week will bring decisions which
shall leave the city considerably richer in
point of art possession.
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hannan, of San
Francisco have been at the Portland for
a few days, on their way homo from a

evening, when she appears in her farewell
concert beforo leaving for California, She
is to be assisted by Mr. Alexander. Miss

AT Tins EXPOSITION.
The rain of the past week dampened
the zost with which would-be enter
tainers at the Exposition made pluns
for festivities. 'California" gave its
family dinner to the sixty odd persons
connected with the California build
ing, and Idahov entertained several
hundred invited guests On Tuesday
evening with the reception and dance

quiet since the big railroad dinner of

made their headquarters at the Port
land Hotel. Commissioner and Mrs.

Portland who will be a commissioner
at Jamestown.
The California building will be open
to the public today from 10 o'clock un
til 5 P. M, if the weather is favorable.
"California's" family dinner on Tues
day evening was, from all accounts, a
royally merry occasion. Tho tablo
was set in tho balcony, with Commis
sioner and Mrs. Wiggins at one ond
and Commissioner and Mrs. Fllchcr at
the other. Candles shed a soft glow of
light over the scene, and promptly at
6 o'clock tho guests sat down. Tho
menu was an elaborate one, prepared
by the house staff. Mr. Wiggins filled
the position of toastmastcr, and
speeches were made by representatives
from the various California counties.
During the evening Mr. Wiggins was
presented with a valuable painting
done by a California artist. This "was
a sequence to the watch presentation
made to Commissioner Filcher earlier
in tho season, on the occasion of his
birthday? As souvenirs of the occa
sion; the ladles were all presented
with sterling silver -brooches, on which
was Inscribed "Portland, 1905." and tho
men wero presented with stickpins
'bearing a similar inscription.
On Wednesday afternoon young
women from California sent by a
newspaper contest wero entertained by
the California hostesses and served
with refreshments.
Miss Hammell'a reading from "Tho
enunciation was delightfully clear, and
her expression and gesture showed
long training and experience Mr.
Claire Montelth sang a number of
songs, which were most cordially re
ceived. An informal reception was
held after the reading, follrfwed by
dancing. Refreshments were served
from the dining-room. Parsons' or
chestra was in attendance.
The new hostesses for "Idaho," who
will remain until the close of the Ex

Idaho Falls, and Mrs. Chloo S. McNul
ty, of Boise. Miss Hammoll and Mrs.
Chaney, who assisted Mrs. Scott dur

certs or recitals arc to be given at vari
ous hours during the day at all of the
state buildings. There will be a matinee
musical performance at the Auditorium
and an elaborate musical programme at
the same- place In the evening.

attractions In the Longfellow House, and
tho strains of "Hiawatha" played thereon
are frequently heard. Tomorrow there
will be a continuous musical programme
at "Maine" from 2 o'clock until 4:30 P. M.
There is evidence tending to tho con
viction that Oregon's quiet and courteous
commissioner of education has match
making propensities.
"
A certain Oregon family will havo a
perpetual reminder of the "Old Bay state"
for many years to come. It-Is understood
that a Portlander who Is to bujld a new
cottage at one of the beaches next season
-has purchased entire the household fur
nishings of the Massachusetts state build
ing. He is a former Massachusetts man
and his wlfo a former Massachusetts
woman. This furniture, which Is all ar
tistic in design, was purchased for -the
most part in Boston. It was shipped to
St. Louis and used In the Masachuaetts
stato building there last Summer. So 4t
possesses a double Interest and historical
value.
In spite of tho rainy weather of the
past week and tho small attendance at
the Exposition, Mrs. T. Jefferson Myers
has not found herself with a. vacation on
he hands. Somehow, pcoplo seem to fre
quent In as large numbers as ever the
hospitable rest rooms over which Mrs.
Myers presides.
Fra Elbcrtus seemed to be a large and
compelling attraction on Thursday. Espe
cially were tho "women folk" of tho Ex
position and large numbers of "women
folk" from town as well his admirers.
Next Wednesday evening the cxecutivo
commissioners' association will meet at
the Hotel Portland for Its farewell din
ner, which will bo without ladles. Tho

zona, Steele of North Dakota, Baskctt of
Montana, hedd of Nebraska. Clawson of
uian. jarucue or iTancc, -tvousnioiKi or
Japan. Moser of Austria, Rclpe of Hol
land and Hogle of Colorado.
Commissioner Altman, of New York, Is
In Portland again, oti his third visit to the
ExposIUoa, and is being warmly wel-
ware &y
son, the welcome I? as cordial and gen
uino as at the beginning. Mrs. Gilbert
Hunt, the wife of Walla Walla's genial
Mayor, was hostess par excellence, rep
resenting WallaWalla County as well as
the city of that name. She has been ably
assisted by Mrs. Buffum. of Prescott,
Mrs. Pauly, Mrs. Baumelster, Mrs. Whfle-
housc, Mrs. Catron, Mrs. Anderson. Mrs.
B. L. Shnrpstcln. Mrs. H. P. Isaacs, Mrs.
Brents and Mrs. Penrose, all of Walla
Walla. In addition to the hostesses the
scone was much enlivened by the prcsenco
of many charming girls. Besides Mrs.
Hunt's two pretty daughters, there were
Misses Lulu Paul. Laura Bowles, Mabclle
Brents, Grace Isaacs, Alice Reynolds,
Charlotte Baumelster, Bertha Young,
Grace Jones, Mrs. Guy Allen Turner. Sev
eral others wero present for a day or so
at a time
Tho week's festivities at the Washing
ton building began on Monday with a re
ception to the officials of the Lewis and
Clark Exposition and to the people of
Portland, which was well attended. The
muslcalc, which was a special featuro of
the afternoon, was a delight to those who
heard It. On Tuesday, as on the previous
day, the music consisted of numbers by
the string quartette from Whitman Con
servatory of Music and vocal solos by
Miss Charlotte Baumelster and Mr. Guy
Allen Turner, of Walla Walla. Professor
Penncll. of the Whitman Conservatory,
and Mr. Claire Montelth, now of Portland.
Mr. Edgar S. Fisher, of the Conservatory
of Music of Whitman College, rendered a
number of exquisite solos upon the violin.
Perhaps the most appreciated of these
was his rendition of the well-known Largo
by Handel, on" Wednesday afternoon,
when the programme was given in honor
of "Whitman day," by the members of
the Whitman Conservatory faculty and
students, assisted by Mr. Montelth. On
that occasion Miss Alice Reynolds was
hoard In a vocal solo.
Messrs. Montelth and Turner, accompan
ied" by Miss Nellie Johnson, of Walla Wal
la. A pleasing feature or Thursday after
noon was the presentation of a gold
watch to Mr. Johnston. Washington's
chief commissioner, by the members of
the 'vashington family," with many
short speeches and great enthusiasm.
Tuesday was "Walla Walla day and the
city sent the largest excursion that has
yet come from any one place to the Fair.
It was the longest passenger train ever
hauled by the O. R. &. N.. being a quarter
of a mile In length and bore over 1100 per
sons. That day and the next Walla
Walla badges were everywhere noticeable.
and walla Walla owned Portland, tem
porarily. Walla Walla day was also
Pomeroy day and Goldendale dav
Another Incident which occurred during
Walla Walla week most quietly and un
known to all but the few witnesses, was
the climax of a romance in the wedding
on Wednesday afternoon of Professor
Edgar S. Fischer and Miss M. Alice Rey
nolds, both of Whitman Conservatory of
music. The ceremony was performed in
the vestry of Trinity Church, in the pres
ence of only one or two intimate friends
and the father of the groom. It was an
event most pleasing to all their friends.
though It was a disappointment that the
necessary departure of Mr. Fischer, Sr..
for his home In Philadelphia on the samo
evening, caused them to hasten the happy
event somewhat, to the exclusion of the
many who would have been glad to wish
them Joy.
In ,a review of the week It would be dif
ficult to single out any one day or time
which gave more pleasure than another
when all were so good. The one disap
pointment, was the non-appearance of
Mrs. Tallman, who -was unable to sing.
Mrs. Hogle, wife of Colonel Hogle,
Commissioner from Colorado, is much
beloved by the people who constitute
the Colorado "family" living on Port
land Heights. She has a comfortable,
motherly way about her and a knack
of making people about her feel good
naturod and "at home." Mrs. Hogle
is a great admirer of Portland and
Portland people.
.
Mrs. Fllchcr.. who has. In company
with dear Mrs. Wiggins, dispensed
Californium hospitality at the Exposi
tion all Summer, 13 the wife of Com
missioner Filcher. She has attendod
six expositions prior to coming to
Portland, and no crowd Is too great to
tax her experience as a hostess. Mrs.
Fllchcr and Mrs. Wiggins have enter
tained more people, perhaps, at large
receptions this Summer than any of
tho other hostesses. Mrs. Filcher has
the "badge" craze, and hns already
collected over 200 different badges
from the Lewis and Clark Fair.
Mrs. Tiffany, wife of Commissioner
Tiffany, of Illinois, is entertaining her
mother. Mrs. L. M. De Vore, and her sis
ter, Mrst Frederick Mann, both of Sheri
dan Road. Chicago. They will be here
for several days and will be glad to greet
their friends at the Illinois building.
Several well-known people from Idaho
have called at the Idaho state building
during the past week to pay their re
spects to the hostesses and to look over
the building and the exhibits. Among
these have been Mr. E. L. Liggett, Stato
Commissioner of Insurance, with Mrs.
Liggett, and Mr. J. A. Fennell, architect
of the Idaho building, with Mrs. Fennel:
Mr. Fennell. by thhe way, has reve! , 1
many congratulations on the handsome
structure he designed. Mrs. James F. Bra
dy, of Pocatello. wife of Republican State
Committeeman Brady, has been the git
of the Idaho famllj' for a few days.
Senator Crum. of Idaho, was a notable
visitor of Wednesday at the Idaho state
building.
Mrs. Catron and Mrs. Penrose, of Walla
Walla, assisting hostesses at the Wash
ington State building during the past week
were guests of Manager Helllg at the
Marquam Theater on Monday evening.
Mrs. Alleno Green, who whs ti have
remained at the Exposition as hostess of
the Idaho building until the close of t!-
Fair, was obliged to return to her hems
In Grangeville to attend to business t o.
nccted with her duties as postmistress of
that place. Mrs. Green Is much interest' J
In political matters. Sho has n.-.v
