One of the most exquisite of the early reason teas was that given by Mrs. C. It, Parke yesterday at her home, 745 Quincy avenue. The Interior of the house of lt3elf, almost the perfection of irood taste by architect and decorator, was given an added atmosphere of com fort and ohcer by the artistic use of cut roues and chrysanthemums, copings of pine, Chrlntmns wreaths.palms and sml lur. Mrs. Parke was assisted In receiv ing by Mis. J. Ben Dlmmlck and IMss Ella Flatt. In the dining room were Mrs. V. O. Parke and Mrs. Frank Piatt, who were asslted by Miss Reynolds and Miss Parke.

AtiHtln Bldwell, the American who participated In the flve-milllon-dol-lar- forgeries on the Bank of Kngland end who 1st In Rcrantuon In the Interests of his publication, told of convict life in Knglami; the two little Laliy children, who ilnnced themselves Into the favor of Frothingham audiences during last winter's klrmess and at the two en gagements of "Thcs Brownies," rent the smoker audience into ecstacles; William Yt'atkins r.ang. .

The Bachelors are trying to overcome the obnoxious custom of years past when dances for the ball have been engaged days, and sometimes weeks, ahead. This custom has worked to tho dinadvantage of out-of-town guests who reach here only on the day of the ball, and to the young murrled people. The entertainers of vlsltlnsr dancers cannot very properly go about for day3 In advance of thu ball soliciting part ners for their prospective guests, neith er can young husbands trot around with pencil and memorandum paper soliciting partners for their wives, with th result that on the niirht of the ball only a small proportion of the dancers arc properly engaged. The Bachelors dis cussed the matter and decided to make a personal canvass cf their friends and secure their help In stopping a practice which has seriously interfered with the success of the most elaborate social event of the year. All but a few have acquiesced In the movement: several, however, clliiT to their determination to do as they please, but they seem to be a hopeless minority. The purpose of the IJachelor oflicers will be aided In thilr determination not to distrib ute programmed until the dancers come from the dressing rooms Into tho audi torium. .

To Dear Sir: As you are probably aware, there Is a city ordinance requiring all clergymen anil alderman officiating at mnrrlaKO ceremonies to msko a return of all such marriages to 'the office of the board of health.

City Treasurer Docs Not Want to sad Hoes Not llavo to. There Is a question as to whether or not City Treasurer Brooks will oliey the councllmanic behest that he re frain from adding penalty for taxes until after January 1. An official of the treasurer's department said yesterday that Mr. Brooks Is In grave doubt as to the most advisable course to pur sue. The city will be pinched for ready money If the collections are much long er delayed, and the school district Is at present In dire need of funds. A grreat many people will not pay their taxes until the very last minute, and there ere a great many more who will not pay them at all until a collector frets after them. If the penalty 13 not put on until after Jan. 1, It is very evident that it will be a long time before the bulk of. the delinquents can be brought to time. The act of tho legislature provides that the penalty shall be Imposed on and after the 1st of September. It is never done in this city, however. By a mutual unwritten agreement the treasurer's department and councils have from year to year allowed the time to be extendetl until Nov. 1, and peimetlmes. In fact most times, until Jan. 1. This year the time has already been extended to Dec. 1, and a reso lution is in course of passage length ening the time until tho first of the year. It has passed both branches of e-ounctls, and today will go before the mayor for his consideration. To a Tribune reporter yesterduy lie stfUcd that he would certainly not disapprove of it.
