Washington's Private Entertainment; I
There is a fashion in edibles and drinks for
private entertainments, just as there is in .
table decorations and the attire of the ladies
receiving. Cheese straws and salted almonds,
which clnrmed as a novelty when first intro-
duced three or four years ago, still keep their
places on refreshment tables at teas and other
afternoonreceptions, butthe latest crass is
for cafe frappe, of whose seductive, though
icy sweetness, ladies and gentlemen partaka
in unlimited quantities on the coldest days,
though large urns filled with smoking bouil-
louareusuallyathandatthe same time as
the froaen codes. Hot codes is rarely seen
on refreshment tables, though tea is never
lacking, and chocolate is mimesserved.

"There goes another snorer." said the clerk
of a downtown hotel, nodding at a well
dressed, dignified gentleman who was walk—
ing to the parlor. “They’re a nuisance and
every hotel in the city is bothered with
them." The dignified man entered the parlor.
selected a comfortable chair, crossed his
knees,cloledhis eyes as ifin deep meditu<
tionandwas semi sound asleep. Ina little
while he whistled softly through his nose,
but the noise gradually attained such a high
pitch that guests posing through the corri.
dorwere startled by the sound. The other
guests in the parlor rattled their newspapers,
looked angry. muttered “outrageous" and
otherwise evinced their displeasure. “Ten
minutes, time up,” exclaimed the clerk look-
ing down the corridor and placing his finger
on his nose. The quiet man who walks about
the hotel during the day, and is known as
the hotel detective. entered the parlor, shook
the suorcr until he was awake, and made his
exit without saying a word. The dignified
individual looked around calmly, crossed his
knees again and in ten minutes was hard at
work s'noring again. Of course thedetective
shook him up won after.
"That gentleman pays the largest bill here
every week,and of course we cannot turn
him out. He will alter the parlor and he
will snore. We simply shake him up every
