THE firEt fortnight of June is
proving to be a continual whirl
of weddings and preparations for
the same, and unlucky, indeed, is
the family at the present time
that may not have some active interest
Sti these delightful excitements. There
is quite a bit of informal gayety and
little teas to display the trousseaus or
to permit glimpses of the presents are
furnishing much pleasure among the
feminine members of society who find
food for discussion galore therein. This
week there are to be four weddings of
especial interest, and society will be
represented " in all of its various
branches at one or another. On Tues-
SOCIETY
day Mies Mabel W'atklns and Captain
Wolfe are to have a pretty wedding in
Sausalito. a combination of a military
affair and a June wedding fruthe coun
try, which certainly calls to mind end
less possibilities In the .way of attrac
tions. On the evening of that day vi
vacious, little Miss Lorraine de la Mod
tanya will* be married quite quietly at
the home of her mother, Mrs. Terbush,
to Edward A. Dauis, only about 60
guests being bidden to the affair. It Is
whispered that Miss de la Montanya's
wedding gown Is quite one of the most
exquisitely elaborate that ' has been
eeen here, and is particularly becoming
to her, being of rarest laces. The next
day Miss - Frances ; Coon and Oliver
Kehrlein will be married at the Church
of the Nativity,; at Menlo Park, and
this win be an elaborate occasion from
all standpoints,, .and' particularly ec
clesiastically, as there Is to bo ]. the I
celebration of . a nuptial mass. The!
breakfast and! reception to follow will'
• be out of doors ut ler the great .oak i
trees . of the attractive home. Miss |
Louise Reflington and Dr. A. W.'Hew- |
• lett' will celebrate/their 'marriage; that I
afternoon : at ; 3 * o'clock at Trinity
\u25a0: church. In this city, and *a ; throng of
guests, will fill "the church, ' as both
bride and groom are very popular.' 6w- :
ing to the death of Dr. Hewlett's uncle,
the reception, which was to have been
a large 'affair, has been> given up.; the \
Invitations 'being recalled., and only -the j
bridal > party and a - few of their* cloeef j
. friends will be^ present.
The" following Item from- the* Santa I
Barbara Independent of last Monday
will be read with great Interest here,
not only by those who know the host
esses but by every one who has an ap
preciation of the picturesque, delight
ful hospitality of. the Spanish Califor
nlans which was so charmingly- ex
emplified on this occasion. - There is. so
little of this left In California, unfor
tunately, that.lt Is seldom that such an
affair takes place and especially with
such distinguished hostesses, as these
members of the. famous De la Guerra
family.
The reception at the old De la Guer
ra mansion from/ 4 -to 6 o'clock., this
afternoon was one of the most brilliant
affairs that Fant a Barbara society,: has
seen for a long time. Invitations; were
issued ten days, ago In the .names of
Mrs. Herminia Lee, Mrs. Franclsca de
la Guerra Dlbblee and Miss Delflna de
la Guerra, and the three sisters^re
ceived the guests /as they . arrived. 1
There must have been fully 200 present
and the .women .'- were . exquisitely
gowned. The magnificently ; propor
tioned drawing room", 40 feet wide by 50
feet long, with its ', fine old mahogany
furniture. Its rare^ old 'paintings and its
antique silver candlesticks, candelabra
and odd dishes that held .Spanish
sweets, ; was a gay scene, and; recalled
the days when /all - that was worth
while. ' !n'- California's social life cen
tered there. : A, unique article: that held
a place of honor by -the great \u25a0 fireplace
was • a , hammered " copper w'oodbox,'-' it»
cover < and Bides battered /with*; time's

drawing ' room and /even {the : embroid

candles, Bohemian glass, sweets, every
thing being couleurde rose. . =
Yellow was the color -of /the \ great
dining room, Spanlßh bayonets/ stand
