"Old Plantation Days.
Mr. and Mfs. T. G. Bush entertained a ,
brilliant assembly last evening at their
home in Highland avenue in honor of
their daughter, Mrs. William Duncan
Nesbitt, the evening also Introducing
that charming and noted Alabama
woman, Mrs. Martha Gielow, formerly of
i Greenboro, but now of New York, and
who entertained the guests with her In- (
terpretation of "Old Plantation Days."
j Mr. and Mrs. Bush's plans for Mrs. j
Glelow's appearance were not known by
many of the guests until they were pre- I
sented to her last evening, and while
many of them had had the pleasure of
hearing her on her previous visit to
i Birmingham, there were still others who
! knew of her great artistic success through
the New York and London papers, so ]
that the great desire to hear her was most
charmingly anticipated by by Mr. and !
Mrs. Bush, who gave their guests the
i unusual pleasure of seeing Mrs. Gielow
in her drawing room entertainments
which have long been so popular in the
exclusive sets of New York and I^ondon.
Mrs. Gielow’s dialect recitals were in
terspersed with charming musical selec
tions from a quartette of male voices, the
entire programme Including the planta
tion melodies of the long ago.
With the rich voices of the quartette
filling the drawing room—with the olden
time songs, and then when Mrs. Gielow
was impersonating her black mammy, It
was difficult to realize that one was not
indeed "on the old plantation befo' de
war." But the "Sewanee River" and
"My Old Kentucky Home" are even
sweeter today than they ever were, and
the strains of the dear old mammies take
on a tenderer significance as one realizes
that this picturesque type is slowly pass
ing away.
Depicted as she Is by Mrs. Gielow, she
has charmed two continents, and those
who heard Mrs. Gielow last evening real
ized why she had created so much furor
as an interpreter of the negro dialect and
had revealed the negro character, the
faithfulness and the close relation be
tween the old time mammy and her mis
tress with greater truth than any other
Southern woman. They realized, too, not
only Mrs. Gielow’s wonderful power to
take her audience with her to the old
plantation and hear the nursery rhyme,
"Blow li’l’ Breezes Blow,” but they came
under the spell of her personal beauty
and charm, which seemed all the more
intensified when at times one felt that
"mammy" surely must be in the drawing
room instead of this dainty, beautiful
woman who was smiling her acknowl
I edgements to the brilliant throng before
UCl .
The quartette included Mr. John Har
mon, Mr. Reed Miller, Mr. E. A. Werner,
Mr. Edward G. Powell, four of Birming
ham’s greatest favorites.
Mr. and Mrs. Bush, Mr. and Mrs. Nes
bitt, and Miss Williams received in the
beautiful reception hall, which was a
tropical bower of palms. At the first
landing of the stairway was an elaborate
grouping of palms and ferns, against
which the pink petals of dozens of La
France roses produced a charming ef
fect.
The drawing rooms, with their exqusite
green and old rose tints, presented a very
gay scene throughout the evening,
thronged with a brilliant assemblage,
while on the wide balcony without the
scene was very picturesque when the
guests were seated at the tables, a de
licious supper being served on the veran
da which was inclosed with canvas. The
decorations here were of palms and La
France roses, the palms being placed be
tween the stone pillars, the entire
length of the veranda, giving the appear
ance of a magnificent palm garden. The
celling was studded with lights, while the
view from within was equally as en
chanting
The old plantation days were carried
out in the details of the supper, and the
cakes were designed as huge watermelons
and ornamented with miniature darkies
to more perfectly carry out the idea.
The programme of the evening was as
follows:
Mrs. Martna u. uenow s evening ’Beto,

Mrs. Estes Entertains at Cards.
Mrs. William G. Estes gave a large and
brilliant card party yesterday afternoon
at her beautiful home on South High
lands, the occasion assembling nearly a
hundred guests. And while the afternoon
without was bright and springlike, the
interior of Mrs. Estes’ home emphasized
the Easter season by the lilies, carna
tions, yellow ja8samine and violets with
which the mantels and cabinets were
decorated. The reception hall, library
and dining room were thrown together,
and the exquisite green tints of the in
terior were in charming contrast to the
pink carnations with which the cut-glass
vases were filled, while the Easter lilies
and violets also lent their beauty and
fragrance throughout the apartments.
Six-handed euchre was played and the
prizes, which were unusually handsome,
included an exquisite cut-glass water
pitcher, a cut-glass toilet bottle and a
cut-glass vase, the latter being the con
solation. Mrs. James Weatherby won the
first prize and Mrs. C. P. Orr the second,
while the consolation was drawn by Mrs.
Harry Jones, duplicate numbers being
arranged, and Mrs. Weatherby, the win
ner of the first prize, drawing the num
ber to which that drawn by Mrs. Jones
corresponded. At the close of the game a
delicious luncheon was served.
The score cards were ornamented with
the monogram of the hostess. Mrs Estes
wore a toilette of old' rose and black, and
received with her usual cordiality and
charm. Her card party was In every de
tail a beautiful one, and her charming
hospitality was enjoyed by the following
guests:

An Easter Tide Wedding.
Among the notably brilliant weddings
of the Easter tide was that of Miss Sara
Howard Benton Woolley of Kentucky to
Dr. George Mansfield Bathem of Birming
ham, which took place last evening at
8:30 o'clock at "Norfolk," the ancestral
home of the bride at Milton. Ky., the
ceremony being performed by Father
Guthneck of Madison, Ind.
It occurred in the drawing room before
a prie-dien lighted by candles and decor
ated with white and green.
Misa Woolley approached the altar with
Dr. Bathem. Her gown was of old ivory
satin, the skirt being finished with three
wide ruffles of uncut velvet which were
worn by the bride’s grandmother on her
wedding night. The bodice was of Ivory
tinted satin draped with a bertha of un
cut ‘ velvet edged with chiffon plaitings,
the collar yoke and sleeves being of real
lace. The veil of point lace was also
worn by Miss Wooley’s grandmother.
The bridal bouquet was a shower of white
carnations.
Immediately after the ceremony an elab
orate buffet supper was served In the
dining’ room. The floral decorations were
unusually handsome, the mantels and
buffets being massed in white carnations.
The table at which the bridal party was
seated had a center piece , of white car
nations and ferns, the candlesticks in
which burned white tapers under white
satin shades, being of old Sevre which
were brought from Marie Antoinette s
boudoir in the Tuilleris.
There was a brilliant party of wedding
guests from Louisville, Madison, Carroll
ton and other cities.
Mrs. Lelia J. Woolley, the bride’s
mother, wore a black brussells net over
black satin. Mrs. Horace Barrett, the
bride's sister, was gowned in black brus
sells net’ over silk with touches of clung
lace. Miss Woolley wore a black and
lilac toilette.
The presents were displayed in the
drawing room.
The wedding was of distinctive im
portance in the social world of the South,
uniting the .charming representatives of
historic families. "Norfolk," the beauti
ful old home of the briie, is one of the
celebrated private estates in the South.
It was originally owned by Major John
Howard, an aid-de-camp of General
Washington. Major Howard married a
famous Virginia beauty, a daughter of
Mr. John Preston, and some years after
purchased "Norfolk," w’here he resided
the last quarter of the eighteenth century.
It was then that "Norfolk," with many
thousands of acres around Lexington,
came into possession of the Woolleys, the
estate now* having been in the family over
one hundred years. The present house
is built around the original log cabin,
which can now be noticeable only for its
low ceilings and thick walls. "Norfolk"
is very large and commodious, and from
either side of the great reception hall
opens the drawing rooms with their high,
frescoed ceilings. The lower floors are
lighted by large old fashioned chandeliers
holding innumberable candles, and these
were lighted in honor of the Easter wed
U1U£.
In the dining room, which open* at the
rear of the reception hall, is the original
log cabin, and the buffets and other fur
niture are more than a century old.
Miss Woolley is the granddaughter of
Thomas Hart Benton, who was United
States Senator from Missouri for a num
ber of years. On her paternal side she
is descended from the English nobility,
her great-great-grandfather being the
second son of the Duke of Norfolk. The
English estate passed into the hands of
the eldest son, and the second son, John
Howard, was presented by the King with
large grants of land in Westmoreland
County, Virginia, the estate adjoining
that of General Washington, to whom
John Howard became aid-de-camp at the
beginning of the American revolution.
But while Miss Woolley’s family Is so
conspicuous in American history, she is
herself one of the most charming and
brilliant young women in the south. She
is a great favorite in society here, where
she has spent a great deal of her time as
the guest of Captain and Mrs. Frank P.
O’Brien. The past winter was spent in
Birmingham, and the wedding was at
first planned to take place at the new
residence of Captain and Mrs. O’Brien,
but it could not be completed in time for
an Easter wedding.
Dr. Lathem is one of the best -known
young professional men of Birmingham.
He is closely allied with distinguished
southern families, being descended from
the Lathems, Talleys and Haygoods of
Virginia and South Carolina.
His great-grandfather, who moved to
Jefferson County from Charleston, S. C..
was one of its earliest and wealthiest
farmers, the old mansion used a* his pri
vate residence being a magnificent coun
try seat for many years.
Dr. lathem will bring his charming
bride to an attractive home, which he
has just had completed on South High
lands, and they will take immediate pos
session upon their arrival in Birming
ham.
Ascetceam Trio.
The Ascetceam Trio and Johnson-Swiss
Bell Company will be heard in a varied
and popular programme at both the mati
nee and evening engagement at Seals’
Hall Thursday, April 11. The entertain
ment is given under the auspices of the
South Highland Presbyterian church and
will be in every way a delightful musical
event. Wherever this concert company
has appeared the press notices have been
most flattering, and the following are
among some of the criticisms:
The Asetceam Trio and Johnson Swiss
Bell Concert Company filled the third
number of the People’s Lecture Course
and gave one of the best concents ever
given in Waterloo. The programme was
full of good numbers from start is fiqjsh.

and the patrons of the course were well
pleased with the concert. The programme
varied somewhat; there were readings j
and impersonations and vocal solos, inter- !
spersed with Swiss Bell selections and j
mandolin, banjo and guitar playing by |
the Trio. Several numbers were encored
so that they were recalled.—Press, Water
loo, Ind.
A good audience gathered in Rosedale
opera house last evening and was greatly
pleased with the tine musical programme
given them by the Asetceam Trio and
Johnson Swiss Boll Concert Company.
There were selections on the Swiss Bells
by the entire company, madolin, guitar
and banjo music by the Asetceam Trio,
vocal music and readings and imperson
ations, and one would indeed be hard to
please who could not find something to
entertain in all that variety of music
offering The entire programme was well
and artistically given and the recalls and
applause were frequent.—Franklin Re
pository, Chambersburg, Penn.
Art Club Reception.
The Birmingham Art Club will give a
reception next Tuesday afternoon in the
studio in the Watts building. The occas
ion will be one of the most beautiful of
the past Lenten season, and there will
be no invitations issued except through
the prr ss, and the friends of the club are
cordially invited to be present.

As previously stated, the amount of
cash on hand for the Hillman Hospital
building fund, was $9892.85. Further sub

A Correction,
The statement made in regard to the
chairty euchre which was given on Mon
day afternoon that the amount of one
thousand dollars had been realized from
the entertainment was an unintentional
mistake, the fault of the liberty-taking
typesetting machines.
One hundred dollars was the amount
realized by the patronesses of the card
party.
