TIIE MORNING A3TOIUAN, ASTOIUA. OltfiGON. SUNDAY, FEIIRUARY W, WW. lie veei w 3Urotia Socle I ij MtUrillHMMtitttMttHtlMmtlttttt This last week has been a quiet one in the way of entertainment and society is taking a well-needed rest. There were very few, if any, card parties this week, no recitals and no large dances, and there is not name to be much entertaining until after C.tor mil nrobablv not until Autumn as in April and May a great many Astorians will occupy their summer homes at the beaches but nevertheless there are one or two weddings in the near future which people are looking forward to with great interest and a few dances, and people will manage to keep almost ai busy as ever. Birthday Party. Miss Margaret Becken celebrated lier tenth birthday on Monday after noon. Only a few little girls and boys were Invited. The afternoon wa spent pleasantly in games and otherwise after which a delicious luncheon was served. Miss Margaret received some very pretty gifts from her little friends. Celebrate Birthday. A number of children were invited to the home of Miss Helen Camp bell on Wednesday afternoon in honor of her eleventh birthday. The children amused themselves in the usual way. A dainty lunch was served and the friends of Miss Camp bell presented her with some verj uice presents. On Sunday last Mr. John Utzinger of Seaside celebrated his 58th birth day at that place. Mr. C C Utzin ger and wife, Mr. J. J. Utzinger and Mrs. J. C Utzinger of this city went down to Seaside to participate in the celebration. Sale. The home-cooking sale held by the ladies of the Relief Corps at the home of Mrs. G. Zeigler on Seven teenth street Wednesday afternoon was so successful that by S o'clock every last pie and cake had been sold out Many called during the evening; who had not been there during the afternoon and were dis appointed to find that all of the home-made articles were gone Nevertheless those who went last evening had a very pleasant time, even though they didn't have a chance to buy anything, for Mr Zeigler and Miss Laurie McCann sang a number of songs that gave much pleasure. Next time the ladies will endeavor-to have a bigger sup ply of things on hand in readiness for the rush. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Celius de ported Thursday for their old home in Arndal, Norway, where they ex pect to settle for good and all, Mr. Celius having been offered a lucra tive place in one of the mining eamps of that country. They have been four years in Astoria, and go back for the main reason suggested above; but do not gainsay the propo sition that they may come back in the brighter future they hope to build. Recital A pipe organ recital is to be held at the Grace Episcopal Church on the evening of February 26, under the auspices of St. Agnes' Guild. Mrs. Brenham Van Dusen, organist of the church will give the recital, and will be assisted by one or more vocalists. The complete program has not yet been arranged. The organ in Grace church is an excellent one, and al! those who have had the pleasure of hearing Mrs. Van Dusen play will doubtless be glad of an opportunity to hear her in this recital. The last organ recital in Grace Church, sev eral months ago, was very success ful and many who were present said it was one of the most delightful musical evenings they had ever passed in Astoria. This recital should be equally interesting and the ladies of the Guild will make other an nouncements in relation to it. Major Thomas Lamereaux, the well known and popular command ing officer at Fort Stevens, departed on Wednesday for his new post at the Presidio at San Francisco. He goes with the abundant good will of this entire community, as an officer with whom it has been a pleasure to do business and from whom to re ceive the courtesies incident to a visit to the forts; and it is saying but little to express the hope he may find an exceedingly pleasant term of serv ice at the Bay City. Major Bartlett will arrive to take over the command at Stevens in the course of a few days. A dance was given at Hammond on last evening and was enjoyed by all who attended. Friday. night was ladies' night at the Irving Club, and quite a few availed themselves. of the opportun ity to see where many of the men pass some of their idle hours. Re freshments were served. It is hoped to make the ladies' nights a feature of the Irving Club. Mist Laura D. Anderson enter tained the Dorcas and Alpha So cieties Friday evening at her home. 368 Kensington avenue. There were games played and prixes won by Miss Sarah Anderson and Albin H. Hemple. Refreshments were served and after a few hours all went home, satisfied with an evening well spent. Masquerade BalL The Warrenton Volunteer Fire Department gave a masquerade ball on Friday night and did themselves proud. It was an eventful evening of course it would be on Friday, as the boat was stuck on a snag and the passengers had to be taken in small boats to Warrenton and about SO who wanted to go were left here on the Astoria docks and didn't get t go at all. Mr. Phillip Coffey and Mr. Eastabrooke were in charge cf the evening and deserve much praise as the music was fine and the ha'l was prettily decorated. Some of those who wore suits were very unique and pretty, were Mrs. French as a Spanish girl; Miss Esther Beck en as a gypsy girl; Inez Alley as Red Riding Hood; Nellie Coffey as a flower girl; Mary Coffey as Princilla and the fortune teller and the ghost much in evidence. The men who wore very nice costumes were Mr. French as an Indian and Spanish cavalier. Miss Harriet Tallant entertained the members of the Thursday Club ast Thursday afternoon with a 500 party. Mr. C H. Callender was the lucky prize winner. During the af ternoon Miss Tallant announced her engagement to Mr. Greenough of Portland. On Friday evening Mr. and Mrs John E. Gratke entertained the Wick Wick girls and their gentlemen friends, at a china and linen valen tine shower, in honor of Miss Francis Estes, of this city, and Mr. H. F Hull of Seattle. The house was very artistically decorated with hearts. The cozy corner, in which the en gaged couple sat was canopied an! decorated with red crepe paper, cu pids, hearts; and illuminated with tiny electric lights of different colors. As the guests arrived their shower packages were "checked", the owners receiving large red hearts. At the various tables, were magazines, scis sors and paste and the guests were required to portray their gifts by arranging on their paper hearts suita ble magazine illustrations and so finished their "Valentine" with ap propriate verses to the young couple Miss Laura Fastabend won the prize for the best prepared valentine. Miss Winifred Higgins won the prize for guessing from the illustrated hearts the greatest number of gifts. After this novel and delightful game dainty refreshments were serv ed. The young couple were recip ients of many beautiful gifts, as we'l as hearty congratulations and best wishes of all present. The Thursday Club met on its last day at the home of Miss Harriet Tal lent, this week, when the game of the day was "500", in which pleasant con test Mrs. C. H. Callender took the leading honors. And during the func tion Miss Tallant took the opportun ity to make the pleasing announce ment of her engagement to marry Mr. Greenough. Little Miss iVolct astabend gave a Valentine's day party yesterday af ternoon for 12 of her friends. The house was prettily decorated with red hearts in token of the day, and there was a valentine box from which all received lots of valentines. All had a merry time. AMUSEMENTS ASTORIA THEATRE. Despite the chivalry for which America is noted, an actress who es says Shakespearean roles must ex pect not generosity, but justice. Miss Marie Drofnah who has scored one success upon another in her imper sonation of the leading feminine roles in Charles B. Hanford's pro ductions has won the honors, now freely accorded her squarely upon her merits. She has made no ostentatious appeals to public in terest; the recognition she has found is the more complete because of its absolute spontaneity. With scant confidence at first in her own powers, she consciettously essayed the task that came to hand and became so absorbed in the realization of her own artistic ideals that she had no time to appreciate the magnitude of her own triumphs. An association with an actor like Charles B. Han ford could not fail to develop her capabilities to the utmost and today she is one of the most enthusiastically admired women on the American stage. Her portray als are characterized by the most delicate femininity and yet possess the certainty and repose which can only come with the indorsement of popular opinion. She is sure of her effects became audiences have left no room for doubt as to their con vincing completeness. She did not rest content with the assurances so promptly extended that she enjoyed Church Services Today. First Norwegian Lutheran.

Miss Drofnah availed her self of the extraordinary opportun ity she enjoyed to make herself a mistress of the technique of the stae into her studies the enthusiasm that can only exist when the fates arc The Morning Astorian has pleas ure in making the pleasureable an nouncement of the engagement of mr. rnmp Mcuonougn ot Bear Cliff and Miss Olive Eloise Burke bile of Seattle, Wash. The well known young people will be married on Wednesday, the t7h day of April next, at the home of the charming bride. These young principals are most happily known in this city whence many a bright hope for their happiness will go forth. The bride ts a cousin ot Mrs. Anna M. rord and Miss Mary E. McCrea, of this city. kind and the way is opened to a ca reer that is thoroughly congenial. Her stage experiences has brought her into association with many of the most eminent players known to the American stage, but her greatest triumphs have been achieved in the productions made by Mr, Hanford. Her performances of Hermione and Pcrdita in "The Winter's Tale"; I'ortia in "The Merchant of Venice"; Desdemona in "Othello"; Katherine in "The Taming of the Shrew" and Beatrice in "Much Ado About Noth ing", have each irt turn commanded the highest expressions of admiration from the most competent authorities And the popular verdict has been no less emphatic than critical opinion in welcoming her as one of the great actresses of the modern stage. Dur ing Mr, Hanford s engagement at the Astoria Theatre on Wednesday, February 17. Miss Drofnah will ap pear as "Katherine" in "The Tam ing of the Shrew." r MONARCH Range Will Pay for Itself BECAUSE It Is built RIGHT.-of Malleable Iron and Steel There are TWO distinct kinds of ranges, widely different, except in one respect they both have steel bodies. In the Monarch Range, unbreakable Malleable Iron is used for those parts that are cast or grey iron in all of the "common sort" of steel ranges. , The seams and joints are made by riveting the heavy steel plates of the body and oven to MALLEABEE Iron fames, making seams as solid as those of a steam boiler, that will remain TIGHT for unlimited years. Such a method of construction is possible only when Malleable Iron is used, and it is largely this "air tight- Riveting; a Monarch Range ness" that enables the Monarch to do as much work as an ordinary steel range with but one-half the fuel. It is by actually SAVING a large part of the money or dinarily spent for fuel and repairs that "TheMonarch Pays for Itself , ....' IT'S EASY TO SEE HOW THE MONARCH PAYS FOR ITSELF WHEN YOU COMPARE ITS RIVITE0 AIR-TIGHT CONSTRUC TION WITH THE MAKE-UP OF THE ORDINARY STEEL RANGE ..l lgg y 'I HI SB dries up and falls out. Th range leaks air all overit WASTES FUEL. There is no fuel waste with a MONARCH Range. It utilizes ALL the energy in the fuel uses about HALF what the other kind of a range requires. Thus the saving in fuel alone pays the range's en tire cost in a remarkably short time. This "different" CONSTRUCTION effects not only a saving of FUEL, but of hard LABOR and much TIME as well. There's no utove blacking to be done no black The GREY iron In the COMMON sort of steel range Is too BRITTLE to stand .hammering necessary to rivet it to the steel. So the joints are made with stove bolts and plastered with stove putty in an attempt to make them appear tight. Because every one knows that "air leaks" into the flues and fire box WASTE fuel And the range must seem to be tight at least till it is sold. After a little use these seams open up kettle bottoms to scour no waiting for a alow fire the expansion and contraction works the nuts loose to get the oven hot. Everything goes smoothly the heat warps the iron and steel apart the putty without a hitch about a MONARCH RANGE. The satiscfaction of using such a range is worth much to a housekeeper. It's all due to the CONSTRUCTION. 1 For sale only at the hszes Astoria Furniture Com'p. V. A. Beharrell J. C. Carrington DuTBUySMIifwaory-Jhn
