The Last of the New Year's Callers.
The door Is shut—I think the fine old face
Trembles a little, round the under lip:
His look is wistful—can it be the place
Where, at his knock, the bolt was quick to
slip
(It had a knocker then), when, bravely
decked,
He took, of New Year's, with his lowest
bow.
His glass of eggnog, white and nutmeg-
flecked.
From her who is—where Is the young bride
now?
O. Greenwood, answer! Through your ample
gate
There went a hearse, these many years
ago;
And often by a grave—more oft of late—
Stands an old gentleman, with hair like
snow.
Two graves he stands by, truly; for the
friend
Who won her, long has lain beside his
wife;
And their old comrade, waiting for the end,
Remembers what they were to him in
life.
And now he stands before the old-time door,
„A little gladdened in his lonely heart
To give of love for those that are no more
To those that live today a generous part.
Ay, she has gone, sweet, loyal, brave and
gay—
But then, her daughter's grown and wed
the while;
And the old custom lingers; New Year's
Day.
Will not she greet him with her mother's
smile?
But things are changed, ah! changed, you
see;
We keep no New Year's now. not we—
It's an old-time day,
And an old-time way.
And an old-time fashion we've chosen to
cut—
And the dear old man
May wait as he can
In front of the old-time door that's shut.
—H. C. Bunner.

CALENDAR FOR THE DAY.
Thalian ball at club house.
"Open House" at Mrs. Bettie Bryan's,
6 to 8 o'clock.
Miss Bute entertains for Miss Alevia
Bute and Warren Bute Garrott, 7
until 10.
+
The brilliant ball given last night by the
Concordia club added another splendid laurel
wreath in the social archives of the club en-
tertainments, and the ball surpassed all for-
mer successful efforts and events.
The daintiness cf coloring in the hall dec-
orations, of lavender and pink, were thor-
oughly emphasized by the myriads of pink
Incandescent bulbs and the generous touches
of silver tinsel gave a sparkle of almost
bewildering b?auty.
In the grill work of the stairway landing
pink in.-andescents were interwoven with
smilax, the immense canopy of umbrella de-
sign was developed with the same dainty
colors, touches of silver and rosy hued lights,
with addition of bells and huge bows and
loops of broad satin ribbon to finish the de-
pending handle in the center. There were
graceful vines of smilax about the hall, and
the immense electric butterfly poised withr
scintillating wings and gave delight to the
eye as well as being a feature of utility for
the scene.
The New Year cotillion danced was led
by Mr. Sam G. Raphael with Miss Sallie
Rhapira of Madisonville; the favors were
tiny bells for the ladies and imported sprays
of holly and berries for the men.
The huge electric figures '06 measuring six
feet in height were danced through by the
participants until 12 o'clock, when the num-
ber 6 vanished and was replaced by 7, thus
announcing the newly born year.
Mr. Raphael led the second cotillion with
Miss Daisy Hughes of Washington, D. C.
This was a wheel figure and the favors were
diminutive horns for all participants.
A buffet supper of three courses was
served by the Ladies' Benevolent association
at 12 o'clock on individual tables dccorated

ly beautiful costumes, and among the many

Brilliant Reception-Musicale.
At the opera house last night the Houston
Quartette society gave an affair in honor of
Mrs. Frederick H. Seymour, which was a
brilliant success, socially and artistically.
Mrs. Seymour, who was a Galveston girl,
rang in this city quite a number of years
ago. Mr. Gareissen, at that time of Galves-
ton, too, and Mrs. George Bruce, who had
then ju3t come to make Texas her home,
were the other musicians who, with Miss
Hume, provided the program for that con-
cert which was such a tremendous success
some years back.
Since Miss Hume's marriage her home has
been in England, she having sung here only
once since her girlhood. With her little son,
Master Hume, Mrs. Seymour is at present
visiting her parents, so the Quartette society
eagerly sought the honor of paying this
former Texan the compliment of entertain-
ing in her name as a musician.
The stage and boxes were richly decorated
in the colors which have come to charac-
terize the holiday season. The rich green
and waxy gloss of Southern smilax, poinsetta
plants and palms embowered the boxes, and
the scene of the stage reception which im-
mediately followed the completion of tlie
musical program.
The first proscenium box was occupied by
the family of the honoree. Major and Mrs.
Hume, Master Hume Seymour, Mr. Charles
F. Hume, Jr., and their special guest, Mrs.
P. K. Ewing. The other boxes were filled
with the ladies of the reception committee.
Mrs. Seymour's voice is a brilliant soprano
of unusual range. Though she has been suf-
fering from an acute attack of la grippe,
there was no sign of it in her singing last
night.
She had a fine stage presence and was
superbly gowned.
She sang altogether five songs, two of
them being encores which were most ea-
thusiastically called for by the audience. Her
first number was the best known and most
beautiful scene from the "Freischuetz." She
made the climax of exquisitely symmetrical
composition in a style quite thrilling. Her
encore selection was Eugene Field s dear
"Little Boy Blue."
Mrs. Seymour's next song was Allitsen's
"Faith Must Be* Your Guide," the words of
which were pronounced in a manner unmis-
takably clear. This she followed with a cap-
tivating song, which was something about a
; red rose. After this the encore was one of
j Thomas Moore's dear Irish melodies, "Believe
me, if all those endearing young charms."
the first bars of the prelude bringing from
the audience a burst of applausive recogni-
tion.
Many handsome flowers were, of course,
bestowed upon the singer.
The Quartette society's work last night de-
served the unstinted applause it received
from the audience. They sang beautifully
Goidbeck's part-setting of the familiar mel-
ody to which Canon Kingsley's poem, "Three
Fishers," is sung. The society's double num-
ber was Cole's delicate composition, "Ashes
of Roses," and Lynes' setting to Bourdillon's
"The Night Has a Thousand Eyes." The re-
sponse given to an Insistent encore demand
was a very catchy arrangement in strongly
marked martial rhythm, "A Merry Crowd,
We March Along."
The tenor line of the quartette's grouping
is strongly augmented in/both quality and
quantity of tone by the coming of the new
members. Messrs. C. C. Moore, Walter Hil-
liard and G. W. Ilurd. Mr. H. R. Gates on
the back bass line loomed up largely, too.
By last night's showing the old Quartette
society is In fine working condition.
A pleasing incident of the evening was
the presentation, just before the last chorus,
"Annie Laurie," of a beautiful silver loving
cup to Mr. F. F. Dexter, the Quartette so-
ciety's director, by Mr. B. A. Randolph, presi-
dent of the organization. Mr. Randolph
made, of course, a very pretty presentation
speech, but Mr. Dexter had such a terribly
bad cold that, for once in his life, he liter-
ally couldn't "talk back."
Mr. Aldridge Kidd was the piano soloist
and accompanist of the evening, and no num-
ber on the whole program was more warmly
nnd persistently applauded than the tran-
scription of Schubert's "Th^ Wanderer" that
he played. Mr. Kidd, indeed, had a double
encore.
♦ ♦♦
Ladies' Entertainment.
Ladies' auxiliary. United Commercial Trav-
elers, council 59, entertainment was a pleas-
ant affair of music and informal reception,
givm tc, the members of the council.
The parlors of the local council at the
Brazos hotel wore prettily decorated in
seasonable ornamentation for the event.
Mrs. Fred M. Court sang pleasingly a solo
with piano accompaniment by her daughter,
Miss Vera Court.
Rev. George S. Sexton, chaplain of the
council, addressed the assembly most enter-
tainingly in a serious, as well as humorous
and eloquent manner.
The instrumental music was contributed
by Miss Court with a piano solo, then a
flute solo by Mr. Abe Roos, with Miss Viglin*.
at the piano, and little Miss Mather rendered
a piano solo. Miss Sadie Freyer's songs were
ehnrmingly sung, Miss Felice Sasa playing
br iliantly her accompaniments.
With her mother at the piano, little Miss
Rosetta Cliimene carried off high honors with
her song fend encores rendered, as well as
her brother, Master Eugene Chimene, with
his dialect recitations.
Mr. Cherry s,ave a mc st interesting talk
on the life of the commerc:al traveler.
During the informal reception which fol-
lowed Mrs. Fred M. Court, president of the
aux...ary, was assisted by Mrs. Jesse A.
Bryan, Jr., and oth^r hostesses of t.lip aux-
iliary, and Mr. Bryan, senior counsellor; Mr.
Court and Colonel Richard Cocke of coun-
cil :"i3.
Abbott-Quilhct.
An approaching marriage, whose an-
nouncement will convey a great deal of in-
terest in Houston, where the bride-elect is
well known and socially popular, is that of
Miss Mary Abbott of Seguin and Mr. Wil-
liam Quilbot of Amsterdam, N. Y., which
takes place Thursday at high noon at the
home of Mr. and Mr^t J. M. Abbott of Se-
S guin.
