DIKING Easter week there has been
much to enjoy, and no day was
lacking in its element -of attrac
tion. The consensus of opinion is that
the last assembly on Thursday eclipsed
in brilliance any of the former parties
Kiven by this club, the new Masonic
Hall, where it was held this year, be
ing Ideally arranged for entertaining,
with its handsome ballroom, commodi
ous suppef-room, and two enormous
drawing-rooms. Tho decorations, too,
were on an elaborate scale, never be
fore attempted.
Miss Lisa Wood, with Mr. and Mrs.
rrake, of Bend. Or., have left Sicily,
where they have spent the Winter, and
are now at Fompeil., - They arc plan
ning to leisurely tour the . northern
part of Italy, and are to spend a por
tion of the summer in Switzerland and
the remainder in France.
.Ir. Kvskine Wood, who has lived (his
Winter at lite Wood. ranch at Ontario,
will spend the Sumiuex in Portland.
This coming month Mrs. Henry E.
Iusch. Miss Lillian and Camille Dosch.
".Marguerite and Uoswell Loseh are to
leave fur New Xork, sailing May 29 on
the Empress -of Ireland for Europe.
They v. ill $ptui a (urtnight in Lon
don and then leave lor France, visit
ing at Burgundy, which has been the
home of Mr. Doschs ancestorn for the
pust 4f0 year. Going' thence to Paris,
they will take an apartment for a year,
during the time that Colonel Dosch is
aetniK as director of exnibits at the
. Alaska-Vjikori exposition. Miss Cam
ille iutsch's ena:ement to Mr. Henry
H. Atiee - has brought forth many
felicitations. He is a Virginian,

to their departure at their country resi
dence at Hillsdale.
It Is certainly boped'that the Assem
bly will in the future become a peima
nent organization for never before has
such enthusiasm been displayed as at
the last Assembly on Thursday. The
decorations were extremely handsome,
consisting of great masses of palms,
ferns, dogwood, . Scotch broom and
greens . interspersed with brilliant
cerise and lavender- cinararia. These
effective flowers completely hid the
entire stage and made an attractive
foil for the gowns of those in the re
ceiving line. Handsome Turkish rugs
completely covered the broad steps
leading to the stage, and the entire
gallery was arranged with dogwood
and greens. Supper was served in a
large dining-room on the third floor,
which seated 260 gueets at a time.
Here the decorations were palms, yel
low and Scarlet tulips and golden dor
nonicum. . Among a few of the very
