PetIt of THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK. SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 20. 1903.

BROOKLUN SOCIETy One of the most important and far reaching sales of Pianos ever held in Greater New York is now under way in the Loeser warerooms. When such Pianos as Knabe, Behr Emerson, Starr, Chickering and other well known makes are to be had at under value prices it is little wonder that buyers are eager to make early selections. The stock is constantly changing, and every Piano represents an opportunity for the close buver; therefore, if you do not find what you want in to-day's offering, come to the warerooms; we have it. These are the cream of the present stock. If not convenient to pay cash, you may purchase on the following terms, without advance in price, further than interest at the rate of 4 cent per annum.

In the news of the latest engagement announced in Manhattan these past few days an old and very Heights family prominent is concerned. The engagement is that of Miss Nathalie Hatch, formerly of 57 West Thirty-seventh street, and Herbert N. Rawlins of New York, whose country, home is at Seabright, N.

J. Miss Hatch is the niece of Walter Prescott Hatch, Melvin Hatch and Mrs. R. M. Stuart Remsen street, and thus a Arthur, first cousin of D.

David Stuart and Walter H. Stuart. She is the daughter of the late Nathaniel Hatch. This branch of the Hatch family has been resident in Manhattan, however, for many years. Practically, Miss Hatch is scarcely known as a Brooklyn girl.

Her mother, who was a Miss Mary Sanford, died last spring, and now Miss Hatch's tie to this borough is less than ever. Yet since she is of this old Heights, family the interest of the engagement for the Heights is marked. Since her mother's death Miss Hatch has been residing with her sister, Mrs. Ashton Little, at Wallingford, Pa. There is married, no announcement as to the wedding's date.

Miss Hatch's fiance is a brother of G. Foster Rawlins, who has recently become engaged to Miss Anna Beadleston. Friday evening of the week just passed the Nassau Country Club gave the first of its autumn dinner dances, with much eclat. As before, tables and rooms were excellently decorated, and there was capital for the dancing. Friday of next week muster ing of the first day of the Piping Rock Horse Show, another dinner dance will be held.

There is not a little fall gayety at Glen Cove. Wednesday evening Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Jennings had a dinner in their very beautiful new country home, which only just now has become in readiness for entertaining. Thursday Mr.

and Mrs. Charles O. Gates were the hosts at another dinner, the guests being very much the same party as that gathered around the mahogany of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gibb at Glen Cove on Thursday of the week before.

Mr. and Mrs. Gates' entertaining was much in the nature of an affair in honor Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gibb.

The story a private, informal golf match is behind this. A week ago Thursday Mr. and Mrs. Gibb arranged a little competition among some of their special friends in the Glen Cove colony -Mr. and Mrs.

Howard Maxwell, Mr. and Mrs. Gates, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Frederic Whitney, Mr.

and Mrs. William Beard, Mr. and Mrs. Spencer A. Jennings, Mr.

and Mrs. William V. Hester, Mr. and Mrs. Horatio M.

Adams, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert L. Pratt, Mr. and Mrs.

George P. Tangeman among number. A dinner at the Gibbs followed the match, which was won by Mrs. Beard and Mr. Gates and for which a cup was presented.

Miss Ruth Nesmith of 265 Washington avenue, one of Mr. and Mrs. Henry E. Nesmith's two daughters, is another of the fiancees of the fall. She is engaged, Mr.

and Mrs. Nesmith announce, to Auguste Goubert Pratt, who is a son of Mrs. Nathaniel W. Pratt of 1,172 Dean street. In this column on Thursday note was made of the marriage of Kenneth Lord, Mr.

and Chester S. Lord's son, and Miss coming, Mildred Grimwood, on. October 14. This is but one, however, of the newly announced bridals. Miss Winifred Appleton's marriage to Donald Ross, to be solemnized at the Ross Street Presbyterian Church, with a reception following at the home of the bride's parents, Mr.

and Mrs. Herbert Appleton, 229 Clinton avenue, on October 21, has just been arranged, and will be of great significance among the Hill set. There takes place in Buffalo this coming Wednesday the wedding of a well-known former Brooklyn man, to speak more strictly and accurately, the son of a well former resident of Brooklyn. This bridegroom is Horace E. Dresser's son, Horace William Dresser, a Polytechnic graduate of recent years and a very popular fellow.

His father, Horace E. Dresser, lived in this borough for many years, was a very substantial and influential citizen and has been much missed from Brooklyn since he took up his residence across the river. Young Mr. Dresser is to marry a daughter of a prominent Buffalo family, the sister of the Henry Richardson Birds, whose home 1s 217 Linwood avenue. The bride is Miss Grace Chester Forbush.

The reception of this wedding will be given at the Birds' residence, the ceremony being performed in the Church of Our Father, 8 o'clock being its hour. Mr. and Mrs. Dresser to be are to live at 389 Linwood avenue, Buffalo, and announce receptions for Wednesdays, November 4 and 11. A house wedding of October 27 (Tuesday), not hitherto chronicled, is Miss Amelia Hubbard Stewart's and James Hathaway Pope's.

Miss Stewart is to be married from her home, 197 Park place, in the evening. She is the daughter of Mrs. H. A. Stewart.

The bridegroom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. William G. Eliot Pope of 205 Prospect place. Nathan Southwick Schroeder of 142 Hicks street is also an October bridegroom of Brooklyn.

On Tuesday, October 6, he marries Miss Mollie Gertrude Kelley of East Derry, New Hampshire, the daughter of Mrs. Everard Horne Kelley. Mr. Schroeder is a son of Mr. and Mrs.

Anthony D. Schroeder, and is a Crescent Club man. He and his bride are to make their home at 118 Hicks street. The ceremony is to be an afternoon affair, at 3 o'clock, in the First Church of East Derry. There has already been noted here (Thursday) the one engagement of especial significance of the week, that of Miss Ruth Peters, daughter of Mr.

and Mrs. John M. Peters of 1,255 Pacific street. Miss Peters' fiance is Harry Mitcheli of Washington Park, a son of Mr. and Mrs.

James L. Mitchell. Miss Peters, as detailed in this column, has been prominent among the fashionable girls of uptown. She is to figure as maid of honor to Miss Mildred Grimwood, in Miss Grimwood's marriage to Kenneth Lord this coming month. The Vogel-Leeming wedding at Holy Trinity Church, with a large and very beautiful reception following the ceremony itself, the Pierrepont Assembly Rooms, is thus far the most important Brooklyn marriage announced for this fall, judging from the show viewpoint, which, after all, for most womenkind, is great consideration of interest.

That is, the very quiet and simple wedding, however notable from the of families it may be, does not, in of most standards people, form the distinctive, to be remembered feature of the big and handsome church bridal, with its decorative bridal train, its flowers, its pageantry, its fashionable, largely attended reception following. would appear that Miss Winifred Leeming's marriage to Dr. Karl Max Vogel will be all that the hearts of Brooklyn Society could wish for. Holy Trinity, on the evening of this bridal, will present such a wedding appearance as it seldom has, and the reception following, inaugurating what will quite possibly be a new Brooklyn fashion, of not having receptions at one's home, copying a late fashion of across the river, will follow Manhattan models. Eight o'clock has been named as this wedding's hour.

Miss Leeming is a sister of the present Thomas Lonsdale Leeming, Joseph Leeming and Woodruff Leeming (the latter of whom married Mr. and Mrs. Edward Tasker Howard's daughter, Miss Esther Tasker Howard, and has taken up the profession of architecture). She resides with her brother, Joseph, at 492 Fourth street. Miss Leeming's father was the late Thomas Leeming.

Thomas Lonsdale Leeming, the younger, married Miss Gertrude Busby, Leonard J. Busby's daughter, and has a country residence at the North Country Club, Glen Cove, his town house being 858 Carroll street. Miss Winifred Busby is a sister of Mrs. Thomas Lonsdale Leeming. A very large bridal train is to signalize this wedding.

With a single exception, bride, maid of honor and bridesmaids are all Smith College girls. In addition to these maids the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Leeming, Miss Katharine Leeming, will be flower girl. The maid of honor is named as Miss Marie Stuart of Chicago, and the bridesmaids as Miss Winifred Busby, Miss ence Brooks of Manhattan, Miss Margaret Vanderbilt and Miss Carolyn Wurster of Manhattan, Miss Nannie Hinks of Newton and Miss Sarah Sanderson of Greenfleld, Mass.

Dr. Vogel has chosen Dr. Everett W. Gould of Manhattan for his best man, and his ushers will William D. Vanderbilt of Brooklyn, and Dr.

Ranson S. Hooker, Kenneth Bissell, Dr. Ralph W. Lohenstine, Dr. George H.

Ryder and Dr. Norman E. Ditman of Manhattan. Miss Amelia Hubbard Stewart's wedding (noted above) will have as its wedding party, Miss Eva Hayden Finley of Glen Ridge. N.

maid of honor, and Miss Rae Pond of Allston, bridesmaids; Oliver A. A. Pope best man, William G. Eliot Pope, John C. Shipman and J.

Schenck Remsen of Brooklyn, and Orson J. Weinert of Buffalo, N. Y. Miss. Nathalie Schenck, Mrs.

Spottswood Schenck's daughter, has been one of the special figures of Newport of late. Miss Ethel Moore has won county fair laurels. Up at South Woodstock, on early this past week, she vanquished every competing local maid in a harness class, and carried off as a trophy for what corresponded to the "blue," not a ribbon but a carriage robe. There was much of Brooklyn about this Woodstock County Fair. Mr.

and Mrs. Julius Brunn's son, and Miss Ilse Brunn's brother, Dr. Brunn, entertained Governor Chamberlain of Connecticut at his home on the day the Governor came officially to visit the Fair. Dr. Arthur Mathewson's son, William Mathewson, was of the Guard of Honor that went to meet Governor.

Other Brooklynites seen at the Fair were Mrs. George C. Holt, Miss Constance Holt, Hamilton Holt, Dr. and Mrs. John Evans Sheppard, Miss Ilse Brunn, Miss Frieda Brunn, Julius W.

Brunn, Miss Augusta Hinrichs, Miss Gertrude Hinrichs, Mr. and Mrs. Henry E. Nesmith, Miss Helena Nesmith and Miss Ruth Nesmith, whose engagement is noted above. As the days go on the social calendar builds up substantially in events and in importance.

United Singers, However, Accept With Thanks Park Commissioner Young's $500 Gift to Organization. (Special to the Eagle.) Long Island City, L. September 19-- The United Civic Organizations of the Borough of Queens met yesterday afternoon in Miller's Hotel. President Knapp presided, and fully thirty delegates were present. A letter was read from the Winfeld.

Citizens Association to the effect that they had not decided as yet the question of becoming a member, and a similar letter was read from the Rosedale Board of Trade. The Jamaica notified the central body that Carter had been Association, chosen one of its delegates. Hanging on walls the room were blue prints of the plans of the Blackwell's Island Bridge, and it was announced that association proposed taking a hand in the movement to hurry the work. on that structure. Chairman Knapp made the announcement and said that a conflict had been raised by a self-constituted committee and that, as there was to be a public hearing the bridge on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock, before the Committee on Bridges and Tunnels of the Board of Aldermen, he felt that the Civic Organizations should be represented at that meeting.

He declared that the bridge was not a Long Island City improvement, but one for the entire borough, and all sections should take an interest in the project and its progress. President Knapp stated that contracts for the steel work on the bridge must be awarded before long, as the bids will be opened on Thursday, September 24. The work is to be completed by May 1, 1906, and the bridge is to be opened for travel on August 1 of that year. J. L.

Emile Schuler, president of the Citizens Improvement Association of the First Ward, stated that it mattered not what action the Board of Aldermen or any other body took upon the bridge plans, they could not become legal until approved by the Art Commission, which had approved the present plans. The matter of side approaches to the main approach in Long Island City were gone into, and the sense of the discussion seemed to be against any approach built at right angles to the bridge. It was decided to refer the bridge matter to the Citizens Committee. A resolution was adopted, stating "That the Civic Organizations of. the Borough of Queens does not concur in the methods and manners of the self-constituted Committee of Forty in respect to the Blackwell's Island Bridge." There were some objections to the resolution, based on the ground that it was too strong, and it was modified to read that tho Civics were opposed to the proposition of the Committee of Forty regarding the bridge.

Henry J. Bauer of Ridgewood brought up a matter relating to fares on the Long Island Railroad. He said the rate had been raised recently between Bushwick Junction and Jamaica. The matter was referred 'to the following committee appointed by the chair: Henry J. Bauer, N.

C. Phillips, Jas. Noone, C. T. Timoniere and M.

P. Holland. The association will meet again at The officers of the United Singers will visit Park Commissioner Richard Young next Tuesday morning to express their thanks for the munificent gift of $500 from the Commissioner, in appreciation of the valuable services rendered by the singerg in assisting to make the park administration a success. The gift was intended to be a surprise for the delegates, a special meeting of whom was called by Aug. H.

Tiemann, president, last night. Mr. Tiemann had confided the matter only to H. Plock, chairman of the music committee, as he had pledged himself to the Commissioner not to divulge the matter. President Tiemann regretted that the news leaked out through some one's loquacity before the meeting was held.

He explained that he had visited Commissioner Young by invitation Tuesday morning. The Commissioner expressed his thanks for the singers' services and especially for the honor bestowed upon him in electing him an honorary delegate. As a token of his appreciation he asked that the society accept a donation of $500. At the same time he requested Mr. Tiemann to keep the matter quiet until the delegates decided as to whether the donation should be accepted.

On motion of Mr. Scheidt it was decided to have the officers of the association personally express the thanks of singers to the Commissioner in accepting the gift. The societies will hold a meeting tomorrow morning at Piel's Hall, to make arrangements for a banquet to be tendered to Commissioner Young next month. PEOPLE'S LITERARY CLUB.
