Washington, June 17.—Aunt Delia Torrey, escorted by her great nephew, Robert Taft, son of the president, ar rived in Washington this morning to attend the silver wedding festivities at the white houe on Monday night Desptte her 83 years, “Aunt Della” did not appear tired out by the jour ney from Milburn, Mass., and seemed to quite enjoy the novel modern ex perience of being snap shot as she stepped from the train. Some on had sent a wheeled chair forher, which the dear old lady de clined with a laugh. She told the re porters that the president had been “quite nerv'ous” on his wedding morn, twenty-five years ago. She solemnly expressed the belief that her nephew could be renominated and re-elected. Miss Torrey wore a black cashmere gown with a modish hat of black straw, trimmed with black plumes and ornaments of jet which gave her quite a characteristic appearance Another old lady who happened to be in the Union station at the time had been taken for Miss Torrey and the real Miss Torey laughed heartily when she learned of the mistake. On arriving at tae white house Aunt Delia” w^as greeted affection ately by the president. Among others of the Taft families who reached Washington today were Henry W. and Horace Taft, the president’s brothers and Master Charles P. Taft, the young er son of the president, who celebrat ed his arrival speedily by a fast and furious game of ball on the back lawns of the white house. If the weather be favorable the re ceiving stand will be on the white house lawn under a canopy. There will be no receiving line. The 5,000 guests will approach the presi dent and Mrs. Taft and will be pre sented by Major Archibald Butt, with out the formality of passmg down long line of cabinet officers as at the winter receptions. A feature of the anniversary is wedding cake so big that each guest will be given a soiivenir box to save for posterity and enough will be left for the younger folks to dream on. The cake is a masterpiece, a mass of white frosting circled around which are tweney-five crystal hearts inbed a re* organization. Continued on page 20. FREieilT TRl Special to The News.
