VST - Suppose we shuffle the cards of invitation snd see what we bare held for the past week in the great game of society. We commenced as early as Alomlay with Mrs Edmund Russell, who talked to a select, but large audience at the residence ot Mrs. C L. Magee, on that most lascinatinc sub ject, "The Art ot Expression." There is eothlnc more interesting than ourselves, and therelore, when she told her listeners about themteWes, always in a gently flatter ing vein.even when she pretended to criticise them, it is no wonder that her lecture was declared remarkably bright and herself the most charming of women. Although this bright woman has had too much experience in society not to know that, when she is in the presence of a company of ladies, she is being examined closely, and every peculiarity she may possess is remarked, she would probably hare been amused could she have heard some of the whispered comments while she was speaking. At the end of her lecture she said that she would have been pleased to answer any question bearing upon the subject of her address that tbe ladies might like to ask, but that, unfortunately, there was no time lor that. Had there been time she would assuredly have been asked why she folded her arms at intervals during her discourse, for such sotto voce remarks could be heard in different parts ol tbe room as "I wouder why she folds her arms in that "manner?" "I wonder whether she considers that grace?" "I don't know whether I like it or not" Then some one said: "Oh, she is lovely, enchanting, di vine." And so the busy whisper circled 'round, while Mrs. Eussell held an in formal reception and then swept from tbe room still gracefully. Tnere seems to be an impression in Pittsburg that this charm ing woman is not understood that she is tooadianced in her ideas ami 50 years ahead ot her time in her esthetic teachings. One interview with Mrs. Russell, and one alternoon spent in listening to her lecture, are enough to remove this impression en tirely. .So one can see her and listen to her teachings without being ronvinced that there is a solid foundation of hard, common sense and practical knowledge of the world underlying her delicate and light touch on the shortcomings of those who have not made estheticism a study. A number of prominent Fittsburgers left lor If e v York last Thursday. The. metrop olis has strong attractions tor the people of this city just now, the most important, per haps, being the football game on Thanks giving Day. "When two young people are about to be married and both possess youth, beauty and a goodly portion of the wealth ot the earth, there is nothing for us to conjecture but that they will marry for love, and love only. To-morrow evening there will be such a union, when Miss Lydia Sutton, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. E. S. Sutton, of Eidge avenue, will become the bride of Mr. A. Hart McKee. Miss Sutton is a beauti ful girl, but aside from that is far in ad vance ot the average young lady intellectu- ally. She has received an excellent educa tion under the guidance ot governesses and masters, commenced in Germany and fin ished in Xew York. It seems almost un kind to her numerous friends that. Miss Sutton should fly from the schoolroom to the altar. Such is the case, however, for the has only been one winter in society. But then the lovers have been play mates and friends all their lives, and as "there is nothing to wait for" in their case, they can hardly be blamed for following their inclinations in this most important ot wordly aflairs. The bridal gonn, to be worn on the day of days, is ot rich white corded silk with a long train. It is low in the neck and trimmed with old point lace. Oraifge blossoms and a tulle ce veil will complete a simple but hand some toilette. The couple will be sur rounded at the altar by their intimate school friends, including some of the most popu lar of the younger ladies and gentlemen in Pittsburg society. The maid ol honor is to be Miss Amelia Oliver and the bridesmaids Miss Chaliant, Miss Bakewell, Miss Mary Lauglilm, Miss Patrick, Miss Hays and Miss Holdship. Toe b'st man is to be Mr. Stansbury Sutton, brother ot the bride, and Eev. Dr. M. B. Kiddle, of the West ern Theological Seminary, will perform the ceremony. East evening Mr. McKee enter- tainea a party ol ins Daccelor meads at dinner at the DuquesneCluh. The Greensburg Club is to give its an nual dance Thanksgiving evening, and in vitations have already been received in this city. The committee in charge of the af fair are Messrs. E, A. Fulton Lyon, James K. Clarke, J. Covode Seed, John Barclay, Charles H. Ulery and John M. Jamison. Although the past week did not afford much in the way of weddings as to num ber, those that did take place were ot a character to command attention and admi ration in a high degree. Several ot the most important weddings of the season, from a fashionable point of view, have been sol emnized durinif the past six days. The mar riage of Miss Susan Duff Dalzell to Mr. B. F. Jones, Jr., has been looked forward to with fluttering hearts by hundreds of young girls who are disposed tolook upon a bride as one possessed of awe-inspiring as well as lovely attributes. Many of these young girls knew Miss Dalzell per sonally, and her nuptials possessed more than usual interest. So it is no wonder that the imurense congregation in the First Presbyterian Church last Wednes day evening was largely composed of the flower ot Pittsburg's maidenly beauty. A prettier church wedding has seldom been seen than this proved to be. The appoint ments were perfect, and the grace aud love liness of the bride, and the handsome manli ness of the grocm were in keeping with the surroundings. Mr. and Mrs. Jones are now in Kew York, bnt are expected to return at the end of this week to take possession of their new home, on Lincoln avenue, Alle gheny. A verv eniorable. as well as fashionable reception will doubtless be that to be given by Mr. and Mrs, D. Herbert Hostettpr Wednesday evening, November 30. It is to celebrate tbe fifth anniversary of their marriage. The exact date of their wedding anniversary was two or three weeks ago, but the reception was postponed on account of an important wedding that took place about that time. - The dress worn by Mrs. "Henry Ehipps at' Mrs. Frank Hofstott's reception Thursday has been the subiect of a great deal ol ad miring comment among tbe ladies of Pitts- I burg. One could appreciate ineDeautyot the gown without being con- seur, for Its loveliness was of the K - "'could bardlr fail to- arret tS . the most careless male eye that ever found its war to an afternoon function. The gown was worn at the drawing room in London at which Mrs. Phipps was presented to Queen Victoria, and is of the regulation court pattern in all essential respects, while preserving an individuality that makes it unique. It is of white brocaded silk with a lull train. Pearl embroidery is the prin cipal trimming, this rich material being dis posed artistically on different parts of the dress, while a bertha of rare old lace is f lulled at tbe shoulders. A girdle and neck ace of magnibcent pearls and a fan of won drous workmanship complete the toilette. Mrs. Phipps expects to sail for Europe next Wednesday, although it is her inten tion to return to Pittsburg next summer. One of the institutions that brichtened.up last week lor Fittsburgers was the chrysan themum show. It was the sort of thing that could be enjoyed in conjunction Nrith almost anything, because one could run into the Auditorium at any time, with the feeling that it lormed chain ot flowers that linked together all other pleasures of the week. It will be good news lor the many people who enjoy so much the jolly college songs, to know that the Princeton University Glee, Banjo and Mandolin clubs will give a con cert January 3. Last year the club went South on a trip, and so Pittsburg did not hear it. There is no doubt that it will be all the more enjoyed this season, because appearing lor tne first time in two years, lhe concert will be given under the au spices ol the Princeton Alumni Associa tion, and as "Old Xassau" has many ad mirers out here it will probably be a great success. The engagement is announced of Miss Claribel McPherson, youngest daughter ot Eev. Eobert McPherson, of Ellsworth ave nue, East End, to Mr. Burtt F. McKee, son of A. B. McKee, editor ot the Freeport Journal. The wedding will take place on Tuesday evening, December 27.
