In honor of the Capitol Hill Toanls club
Miss Mnrgarol Brown , daughter of Mr. nnd
Mrs , Charles II. Brown , Twenty-second
ilroot and Capitol nvonuo , gave a beautifully
appointed rnlnbow tea Thursday evening
which brought together a number of young
people who in n law years will bo the real
king * and queens of the haul tnonclo. ID
conformity with the cantrul Idea there were
tnvon tables , the number of colon in the
rainbow , whloli wo as children remembered
by the meaningless word ' 'vlbgyor. " The
table coverings woroall whlto out across the
snowy surface wore broaa bands of ribbon
nnd Mowers representing the seven colors of
the bow. Each table wits thoroughly ills-
tlnotlyo nnd the effect was thoroughly happy.
The tea wai progressive , the young tceotlo-
men showing tholr ability by marching' up
ward , eight courses being necessary to bring
the men around to the Indies whom they tiau
escorted Into the dinner. lu keeping with
tbo thought tbo courses were also served In
colors , purple grapes , bouillon lu dark blue
cups , llsti on green plates , etc.
In connection with the tea , there was a
pretty idea used in selecting partners for tbo
dnmty affair. At Miss Drown's ' school ,
Cbrlstlbii College , Columbia , Mo. , the girls
ere compelled to wear a uniform consisting
of a blank gown nnd sun bonnets , much niter
the style of the Normandlo caps seen In old
prims. Upon thoio sunbonnets ribbons tire
worn distinguishing the seniors from the
juniors aim low class girls * Miss Brown had
a number of small sunbonnuts made for dis
tribution among the guests nnd upon these
were fastened dlffo'out colored ribbons ,
corrospondtng to the colors on the small
tables which wcro arranged to seat two
people. With this arrangement It was easy
to find whom your partner was and tnada a
great deal of amusement for the guests.
After the dinner the guests adjourned to the
magnificent lawn of Mr. Brown , which was
prettily illuminated with lanterns , where
ibey danced and made worry.
The guests were : Larlmora Donlso , Joe
Morsman , Edgar Morsman , Scott Brown ,
Paul Lucllngton , Howard Kennedy , Jr. ,
Thorpe McIColl , Mnry Buck , Wynn Ken
nedy , Mao Sargent , Georgia Llnilsey. Mar

assisted her daughter in entertaining.

built himself a small house on tbo island and
hero ho lived for many years , nnd if solitude
aud the aforesaid contemplation availed any
thing bo undoubtedly became a very good
man , but it were related that ho had wealth
secreted la his bouse , and ono night ho was
murdered. Whether bis murderers were re
paid or not history does not say , but long
after there was feud 200 Mexican dollars ,
and it is currently reported that at the
witching hourot 18 o'clock his ghost wanders
around tbo island and counts ever his still
undiscovered buried wealth of dollars , aud it
is only a question of tlmo when "Wilson's
burled money" will bo the same to this
country as Captain Kidd's is to the Hudson

Boating Is not all that It Is cracked up to
bo. at least thnt Is the oplniou ot a party of
four of which I wus ono. It happened thusly -

nnd then at 2 p. m. undertook to return
against n head wind , wo had two ortrs but no

tacked'some more , and then tried it all ever
again and continued it , and llnally ut 1JO : ! a ,
m. were landed fully convinced that while
boating In tbo abstract is a very boalthlul
and pleasurable recreation , yet , It is well to
be prepared for adverse circumstances , and
the supply of "Jlsh bait" should bo Increased
from pint bottles to ( junrtsizo.
The next time you sou John D. Howe don't

latter purposes these dogs nro almost in
valuable.
Tlio Scotch collie's bump of locality
seems to bo moro strongly developed
than that of other canines. Besides
this the dog is quiet , faithful and unus
ually intelligent. For reconnoitering
purposes the dogs iiro trained to run
ahead of a division of soldiers , search
the torritors1 closely and announce SUB
picious circumstances by standing still
in their tracks. Another Hold for hla
activity is outpost duty. In this case
the dog is trained to scout the approach
of strangers and to return at once to his
master to announce this fact to him. All
this must bo done very quietly , of
course , so as not to disturb the onomy.
As messengers dogs do bolter service
than the best bicyolo corns , for terri
torial obstacles do not exist for thorn in
the same degree as they do for the
cyclibt. When doing duty as u mes
senger the dog wears a collar around
his nock , to which a leather pouch is at
tached , in which the dispatches nro con
cealed. The collar is numbered and
boars also the namoof tlio army division
t , ) which the dog is detailed. In war
times these names can bo alllxed in
ciplior , so that the enemy may not bo
any tlio wibor ns to the location of the
division in question , to which tlio dog
belongs , should the dog full into his
hands.
Some of the best nnd strongest dogs
are detailed to the Red Cross division of
the nrmy , whoru they do valuable serv
ice in hunting up the wounded In tim
bered and valley regions , where they
uro likely to escape th' ) eye of man , es
pecially after dark. When the dog dis
covers a wounded soldier ho places his
two forepaws on the body of the man
and barks until assistance arrives.
With this is combined the ambulance
service. Small , but well built wagons ,
which can carry two men. are easily
drawn by a good strong collie. Thoho
ambulances nro low , have good springs
nnd the tires urj covered with rubber.
Ono of these wagons , with two attend
ants and n dog , can do twlco as muuh
Held work as lias heretofore boon done
by two Rod Cross men with a litter.
This has been demonstrated during the
spring maneuvers.
