So will Mra, Hammond, who is in mourning retirement for her mother, and Mrs Henry May, who is also in mourning and for’ the same sad reason. The Carrolls are off to Europe for the Mr. and Mrs. J. Pairfield Carpenter weling. One of the most fascinating subjects of con- versation just now among the ladies are their new clothes or their new ideas of winter finery. ‘The trousseau with which the pretty bride of the diplomatic circle, Mrs. McBean, was pro- vided, was full of tasteful and elegant selections. Among her visiting dresses was a stylish v of bluish steel shade, that bad a little silver braid introduced into the trimming. The with the braid and a thickly gathered flounce which graduated in width toward the front. A smart costume of red and black bourette had the skirt slashed on one side to show a petticoat of red sili. ‘The short jacket bodice had a vest of red silk embroidered very elaborately and high puffed silk sleeves tied justabove the elbow with a scarf of the silk. A dinner dress was of black satin, the skirt made entirely plain, and ‘the short waisted bodice had ‘a waistband of jet. Around the low neck was an effective drapery of black jetted lace. Butterfly bows of black lace, against the high puffed elbow sleeves. Among the et sning dresses was one of rose pink satin and a lighter shade of pink crepon trimmed with a yellowish Ince—one of the prettiest things seen this winter. Mr. and Mrs. Leiter and their family are soon to go abroad, apd will in all probability spend | Christmas in merry old England. Mrs. and | Miss Leiter are going to divide their time | between London, Paris and perhaps the | Riviera, while Mr. Leiter and the two younger | daughters make the journey up the Nile. There | * scarcely been & period in Miss Leiter's career when she was more admired than at present. She has legions of friends here, but just as many everywhere elee,who will hear with Tegret that she will be absent this winter. Mr. and Mrs. Leiter have rented a villa for next season at Newport, so that i the family will return again by the spring. They do not expect to be able to move into their new home on Dupont circle until next winter and they will have the opportanity while abroad to make many unique purchases for it. . Everybody has #o much to say of the Cleve- lands that it looks sometimes asif the Vice Presi- dent-elect and Mra. Stevenson were completely | forgotten. The very contrary is the trath, however.

Tableaux and historical scenes are now be- ing rehearsed, with dances and choruses, These reproduetions of royalty grill of course give scope for magnificent dressing and graceful posing and the society belles and beaux of the monumental city are going to make the best of the oppor- tunity. “The whole scheme is representation of the fete given at Paritz in honor of the neen’s birthday.

Prof. Schmid stated to the reporter that the snake belonged to the largest of the snake family. ‘They are without ‘venom, but their immense muscular ower enables them to crush within their folds large animals, which they first lubricate with iva and then swallow whole by means of their enormously dilatable jaws.

I put a large rabbit in the cage with him and in ten minutes he had been consumed. The fun- niost part of the whole performance was the way the monkeys acted when they caught night of him. Oneof them, as soon as he spied the snake, emitted » peculiar noise unlike anything Tever heard before. The others took it up, and, the parrote joining in, pandewonium reigned.
