Quietly, with no elaborate prepar- 
ations and with only a few present, 
Miss Katherine Hubbard, daughter 
of Gorham Hubbard of 210 Beacon 
street, Boston, was married on Wed- 
nesday to Thomas Jefferson New- 
BOSTON OPERA HOUSE. 
With the production of Wagner's 
lyric comedy, “Die Meistersinger,” 
on Friday night, the Boston Opera 
House scored one more in its con- 
stantly increasing number of note- 
worthy productions that it has made. 
One of the leading events of the 
forthcoming week will be the second 
hearing of the Wagner masterpiece, 
which will take place on the evening 
of Wednesday, Jan. 28, at 7.30. The 
cast will differ somewhat from the 
original one, notably in ‘the roles of 
Walther, Pogner, and Eva. ‘These 
pants will be taken, respectively by 
Jacques Urlus, the famous Wagner- 
ian tenor of the Metropolitan com- 
pany, Putnam Griswold, also of the 
Metropolitan, and Frieda Hempel. 
The week will open with a repeti- 
tion of Gounod’s ‘Faust,’ on Mon- 
day, Jan. 26. The title role will be 
taken by Florencio Constantino. 
Louise Edvina will be the Marguer- 
ite. 
Friday, January 30, will see the 
third repetition of “Louise,” Mme. 
Edvina will appear in the title role. 
At the Saturday matinee, ‘The 
Barber of Seville’ will be given its 
first subscription performance of the 
season. 
The Saturday evening offering at 
the popular-priced scale will be ‘‘La 
Boheme,” introducting Myrna Shar- 
low in a stellar role. Miss Sharlow 
will be the Mimi, and Mr. Laffitte 
the Rodolfo, 
bold of New York city, a grandson of 
Hon, T. Jefferson Coolidge of the 
Manchester colony. Miss Hubbard’s 
engagement to Mr. Newbold was an- 
nounced only last Saturday, hence 
the marriage so soon will be a sur- 
prise to numerous friends, as both 
have an extensive acquaintance. It 
had been their plan not to delay their 
marriage long after announcing their 
engagement. The ceremony took 
place in Arlington Street church, 
Boston, and was performed by the 
minister, Rev. Paul Revere Frothing- 
ham. 
The young man who thinks he is 
destined to set the world on fire has 
little consideration for the insurance 
companies. They should worry.

SOCIETY NOTES 
Mrs. Horatio N. Slater is shortly 
giving a dance at her home on Beacon 
st., Boston, for her daughter, Miss 
Ray Slater. The dance was to have 
been given on Dec. 19, but the invi- 
tations were recalled on account of 
the sudden death of Kurt Diederich 
of Washington, a nephew of Mrs. 
Slater. Since then, Mrs. Slater has 
done no formal entertaining,

Mr, and Mrs. Richard Lovering 
have just moved into their attractive 
new home at Manchester, which they 
are to make their year-round resi- 
dence, and this fact occasioned a very 
delightful gathering of two-score of 
other young people who are making 
their year-round home on the North 
Shore, last Saturday afternoon, when 
they called on Mr. and Mrs. Lover- 
ing, in the nature of a surprise to 
give them a sort of house-warming. 
Nearly everybody came in sleighs 
and not a few enjoyed the sport of 
going to the party on bob-sleds at- 
tached to the horse-drawn convey- 
ance. Mr. and Mrs. Lovering are 
greatly enjoying their new home, 
which is on the hill just a few rods 
from the Raymond house, which they 
have occupied for the last year or 
two, and it is also located in the sec- 
tion of Manchester where Mrs. Lov- 
ering’s parents, the Amory Eliots live 
nearly the year round. Mr, and Mrs. 
Eliot, by the way, keep their house 
at Old Neck open through the win- 
ter, though they are at the Copley- 
Plaza for the mid-week throughout 
the cold weather, coming to Man- 
chester for the week-ends. They 
will go South later in the winter, as 
usual.

Mr, and Mrs. Joseph Leiter, who 
are making a cruise around the world 
aboard the Niagara, Howard Gould’s 
yacht, have arrived at Naples. They 
had recently been in Rome. Mr. 
Leiter had arranged to descend the 
crater of Mt. Vesuvius, and his fail- 
ure to accomplish the the feat was 
due to Mrs. Leiter, who, according 
to Prof. Mallandra, who holds the 
records for descents, after descend- 
ing within 50 yards of the volcano, de- 
clared she could no longer stand the 
sulphurous exhalations, and hastily 
retreated to the observatory.
