The only party of . any Importance that -was given last; wool; was that on \; ': Thursday evening,-to'.which Mr. Frank W. McCullough Invited u fow of his - friends. The affair took place on Mr. McCullough's sloop yacht "Westwind," [which has been' the scene of so many . " delightful occasions this summer. The "Westwind," " with her happy load, ? started out and sailed to Hampton Roads beautifully, but when her prow , .was turned in a homeward direction, . alas! the wind forsook them, and the ' young people were forced to remain an? chored until Old Sol began to peep "y.,.- above the horizon and find the party In such a plight. But regardless of the fact, that this sailing party was only partially so, the time passed so pleas? antly that It would be an erroneous . statement to say they regretted the In? cident. A delightful supper was par? taken of and dainty refreshments serv? ed later in the evening. Mr. McCul? lough's guests were Hra. Walker, Miss Mary, Virginia and Lucy Hayes, .of Richmond; Dr. Harris, of Virginia Beach; Mr. W. L. Canwell, of Phila? delphia; Mr. Thomas W. Tannor, Mr. ?. : Hugh G. Whitehead and Mr. W.
