A novel feature of Professor Nace's party on last Tuesday night was the orchestra with drums. This will probably be as it deserves to.be. All trie academies were well patronized on Friday and Saturday nights. -The nights are how rivaling Monday night as successful party nights. Many of the regulars were found in their usual places on Tuesday -night.

The opening of heaven's flood-gates had no terrors for them. The new dances now being introduced by many of the' schools will undoubtedly be "the rage for the Thanksgiving receptions. C.

Brigade Ord-nace Officer and Acting Inspector of Rlflex Practice, Is preparing the order for the contest for the "Potter Trophy," which will be shot for at th First Regiment range on the 2Sth and 20th Instant, Subscriptions sufficient to cover the cost of the individual badges for the winning teams have been secured through the energy of Major L.

Williams, of the First Regiment. So much trouble is experienced each year in providing these badges that Major Cox suggests each company in the brigade contribute $-1 or each for the purpose. This is a good idea, and will do away with the annual begging from men of wealth. To those who are interested in rifle practice, as well as those who are not, a resume of the work accom- nlished rtv Vl rpnrpttpntgilvoc nf fllft First Regiment Rifle Team during the annual competitions at Mt. Gretna, and Sea Girt, N.

may be interesting and instructive. At Mt Gretna, in the preliminary matches, the First Regiment team stood first on four different occasions, against 18 teams, and on August 2iith succeeded in putting up the highest total for five men -at the three distances, 2(H), rK) and J00 yards, 7 shots each, by making a score of out of a possible points; an average of 1)0 3-5 per man.

The Thirteenth Regiment was first with the unprecedented score of 37 points, the best on record. In the Brigade Match the entire representatives of the First were on this match, and by their strong shooting did considerable towards winning the Brigade Trophy by seven points from the Third Brigade.

This is the first time the First Brigade has won this trophy in eight years, and with the second highest score of 1029 points. In the skirmish match the First was second, with a score of 385 points out of a possible 500; this match is a new feature of the competitions, and comprises teams of five men from each organization, twenty shots, one run from t00 yards to 200 and return, Jive 'halts advancing and five halts retreating; thirty seconds to each halt.

Charles M. Oelrich, on Kay street, who entertained Miss Taft during a part of the summer. The size of the house precluded the possibility of accommodating a large assemblage and therefore the invitations were restricted in number. The house was prettily decorated for the occasion, the rooms having been transformed into veritable bowers. The decorations consisted chiefly of running vines, of smilax, lilies of the valley, American Beauty roses, mingled with maiden's hair fern and growing plants, while an abundance of cut flowers, tastefully arranged in choice cut glass and silver vessels were displayed.

The ceremony was performed by Rev. Father James Coyle, of St. Joseph's Church. There were no bridesmaids, but Edgar T. Scott, brother of the groom, acted as best man, and Miss Lillie Oelrich, oldest daughter of Mr.

Oelrich, as maid of honor. The wedding guests were less than twenty-five in number, and included, besides Mr. and Mrs. Oelrich, the host and hostess; Hugh Scott, son of the groom; James W. Taft, father of the bride; Miss Abbie Taft, her cousin; Edgar T.

Scott and Mr. and Mrs. Cheva Walbridge, of Philadelphia; Mr. and Mrs. Theo.

A. Havemeyer, Mrs. T. R. Hunter, the Misses Hunter and W.

R. Hunter and Lieutenant F. H. Paine. The bride's gown was of white satin trimmed with duchess lace with a veil and orange blossoms.

She wore a diamond necklace and a tiara of diamond stars, the gifts of the groom, and carried a prayer book with her monogram inlaid with diamonds. Her jewels are said to represent several thousand dollars. The groom, a son son of the late Thomas A. Scott, of this city.and many times a millionaire, is much older than the bride and is a widower. JJt After the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served to the bridal party Mr.

and Mrs. Scott left in the afternoon for New York and after a brief preliminary journey, which will include Philadelphia, they will continue their wedding trip to Europe, where they will remain during the winter and possibly for an entire year. Old Point Comfort on Tuesday was the scene of the wedding of Louis Marye, a well known Philadelphian, and Miss Lee Duval, daughter of Captain Duval, of the garrison at Fortress Monroe. The bride, who wore a gown of white moire and carried a bouquet of Jacqueminot roses, was attended by four bridesmaids: Miss Effle Grubb. of Edgwater Park, N- J-: Miss Davis, daughter of Captain Davis, of the First Artillery; Miss Rondlett, of Washington, and Miss Davidson, of Richmond, Va.

The four bridesmaids were atired in white, with trimmings of pale green ribbons. A little cousin of the bride was flower girl and strewed the path of the happy pair with roses as they walked down the A wedding breakfast was served at Captain Duval's quarters, and at 4 o'clock Mr. and Mrs. Marye took the train for Washington. They will reside in Philadelphia.

The nuptials of Miss Elizabeth Rodman Fisher Carpenter and Robert Edward Glendinning on Monday in 8t. Luke's P. E. Churcli, German town. The weather the first half of the past week was not the kind desired by the managers.

Hot nights and rainy days are no better for the dancing schools than for the theatres, or for any other business for that matter." Clear, cool days and nights are the best undoubtedly for all kinds of business. Monday night, thouerh rather did not seem to keep away a fair sized portion of the usual dancers attending the schools giving parties that night. The storm on Tuesdav nlsrht was too severe and the halls, with few exceptions, had deserted apearances. On Wednesday night the storm being over, somewhat improved the attend ance. the afternoon parties for the first three days were slimly attended.

The bright, clear skv on Thnrodav brought hope to all, and this was realized by a good attendance at all of tne scnools for the remaining nnrHnn of the week. A meeting of district supervisors of the American National Association of Masters of Dancing was held in Boston, on last Tuesday and Wednesday lor instruction in the new dances adopted at the convention last June at eti.PauL Minn. Professor Gillespie, be-the supervisor of district No. 3 Xcomprising the States of Pennsylvania ana Delaware), was present, and has returned with a number of new novelties in the way of round and square dances. Anpong the dances exemplified were 'The Masters' Quadrille," "The National Quadrille," "The Varzouvienne Waltz." Naval Reserve Two Step," "The A'l'Avinir," "The Duchess," "Adrienne" ana Redowa Schottische, all of which are sure to become popular as soon as introduced A meeting of.

the members of district No. 3 has been called for next Thursday morningr, at Professor Gillespie's academy, for the purpose of receiving the new dances, after which time tne monotony of the old dances will be supplanted by the new, and society given a relish long looked for, and as there are twelve members of the association in the city there is no doubt "but that they will become popular in a very short time. -Professor Gillespie also brought back him the diplomas for the Philadelphia members who recently passed a Jigld examination with much credit and excellent averages, thus gaining the title of graduated masters of the art of dancing, which in itself is a priza that all should feel proud Professor Fricke desires to announce that the first grand monthly reception will occur on Monday evening, September 24. A splendid enlarged orchestra will be in attendance, and the customary prices will be charged- His classes, both adult and children, are filling up very rapidly, and he expects 'a very successful season. The Professor is a member of the American National Association of.

Dancing Masters: also of the Philadelphia Association of Professors of Dancing, and" his Pupils will receive instructions in all the latest dances emanating from the two associations. He is now forming a troup of children, and will shortly give exhibitions of his splendid skill and training of children in some of the theatres throughout the State. It will hardly be necessary to say anything more in regard to the talent displayed by his juvenile artists, 'as the vast number of people who saw his pupils display their ability on the Pier, at Atlantic City, last summer can testify, and they will no doubt avail themselves of the above opportunity. Institute Hall, Fortieth, below Market street, now under the management of Professors Connelly and Wroe, is one of the largest and most comolete halls in West Philadelphia. The large hall only will be used, so that those dancing are sure of a pleasant time.

No expense has been spared to make this one of the finest dancing academies in the city, and from the way scholars are joining, a successful peason is assured. New beginners receive individual attention, and are sure to become graceful dancers in a very short time. Clubs are now forming for both the children's and adults' classes. A special party is every Monday evening. Tuesday and Saturday afternoons are for the instruction of children, while Monday and Friday evenings sre devoted to the fdult classes.

Professors Connelly and Wroe have received congratulations on their efficient and successful management. -The formal opening reception of -roressor hi. L. aerner's Academy was held on Monday evening last. The interior decorations were beautiful, and the floor being in first-class condition greatly added to the comfort and enjoyment of those present.

The music, under the direction of Professc- A Wilsky, was excellent. Professor Wagner has decided to repeat this reception Monday evening, September 24. Among those noticed on the floor were Misses Annie Nelson, Annie Annie Fitzpatrick. Clara Wilson, Elsie Adams, proressor Villiam Sulzberg, Mr. and Mrs.

All the parties given on Mondav night by Professor Scarlett are held in the large hall of his academy. The large number of visitors compels this. Many persons become confused in the two halls at Broad and Columbia avenue under the management-of Professors Lucien O. Carpenter and C.

Elwood Carpenter respectively. People are in the habit of saving they were at a party given by Professor Carpenter, Broad and Columbia avenue, not thinking there are two managers of the same name and in the same vicinity. For the benefit of these people we wish to say that the hall on the southeast corner, known as Bank Hall, is under the successful management of Professor Lucien 0- Carpenter, while that of 1712 North Broad" is equally successful under the management of C. Elwood Carpenter. Professor William Scarlett has inaugurated at hia new conservatory of dancing, 3955 Haverf ord avenue (below Fortieth and Lancaster avenue) what promises to be a most successful season.

His classes are well filled and the enrollment of new scholars goes on daily. The Professor is a- painstaking and efficient teacher, and he enters upon his ninth season with the good wishes of a host of The new school is accessible by several street railways, the Chestnut and Walnut, Lombard and South and Arch street cars running past the hall. The Professor announces a grand Dartv. with augmented orchestra, next Monday evening, September 24. St.

George's Hall, Thirteenth and Arch, the established academy, is now open for the reception of pupils, and said to be one of the finest halls for dancing, being centrally located and convenient to P. R. P. and R. R.

R. and all city railroads. Owing to the large number or cniidren enrolled this season there are now three afternoons being separate days for society and fancy dancing, the ladies and gentlemen's classes on Monday and Friday evenings, and the sociables in the same evening after class are largely attended. McDermott's orchestra is always up to date with new and beautiful music. These classes are under the personal direction of Constantine Carpenter and- W.

S. Moore. In addition to the extensive alterations mentioned in last Sunday's "Inquirer" as having been made by Mr. Charles C. Martel at his academy, 1710 North Broad street, he is now having erected two retiring rooms, 15x15, one for use of ladies, the other the gentlemen patrons of his school.

These rooms will be fitted with every modern convenience" and luxury conducive to the comfort of his pupils and friends, and will, no doubt, tend to increase his glowing prospect for a successful season. The rooms are now in the hands of workmen- and decorators, who will have them ready for public inspection intime for the first monthly party, Tuesday evening, October 2.

The idea is as good as it is novel, and if carried out. in the usual thorough manner which has heretofore characterized the society's exhibitions will be an important event in the history of American art exhibitions. On the 10th of September the Spring Garden Institute opened its classes for the coming season, the arrangement of classes and the corps of instructors being the same as last year.

In the past, Mr. Breckinridge has been known chiefly by his landscapes, in the future; however, he intends giving his time chiefly to portraiture. There has been on exhibition at Earle's, for some days past, a painting by Josef Israels, entitled Last Breath It shows the interior of a Dutch peasant's cottage, in one corner of which is seen an old woman prostrate by the bedside of some member of the family, who has just expired.

New pupils are entering their names daily, making quite a long list of new beginners entered on the professor's books. Monday and Saturday, party nights, have, been patronized beyond expectation, requiring a force of assistants in caring for the many friends of this academy.

Though the weather on Tuesdav evening last was very inclement. it did not keep away the majority, of pupils and friends of Professor William McDonnell from his grand opening.

Everything had a bright and pleasing appearance at the opening reception of Professor William Sultzberg, 4030 Lancaster avenue, last Tuesday evening. Though the size of the audience was diminished by the condition of the weather, yet considerable enthusiasm was manifested by those present at the pleasant charming music and superbly decorated hall.

The grand opening reception of Professor Charles Yhost is booked for to-morrow night at his academy, Pas-syunk and Washington avenues.

Master Vezey Frick and Miss Bessie Leech are very promising pupils of Professor Connelly, at Institute Hall. The manner in which they led the march at the children's opening reception was much admired by those present. The office of Professor Asher Son was a very busy place during the past week, requiring a force of assistants for mailing announcements of the opening party, Friday evening, September 28.
