A Large Diplomatic Family—The Séa- son at Lenox— Personal Notes of Interest. Mr. Yang Ju, the new Chinese minister,and members of his extensive suite thoroughly enjoyed yesterday, their first Sunday in Washington. The younger attaches, dressed in the daintiest light-colored silks, fairly took the west end by storm. Everywhere in the neighborhood of the Arlington they were walking about to see the sights, as well as to show their appreciation of the sensation they themselves created at every turn. The ladies and the babies of the le- gation came in for their own share of the General notice. Those who passed by the hotel during the later hours of the after- noon were rewarded by glimpses of the la- dies, whose Sunday gowns were the perfec- tion of Celestial richness in color and tex- ture. One of the secretaries brought out his baby for an airing, and soon such a crowd bad collected about them that they held quite a reception. The baby was got up in the prettiest finery, and exhibited as much good nature as its ting everybody who want shake hands. A smile, Mlumined the features of the - matic family moved into their new quarters in a few Gays, but the chances are that it will take another week to put the house in complete trim for occupancy. He has sixty- five persons in his suite, which includes cooks and other servants. While the men of the legation eat together in the public dining room of the hotel, the ladies are served in their private apartments. The minister's own cooks prepare the food for the entire party, filling out the bill of fare SPEAKING FORREPEAL (Continued from First page.) ‘The total value of the property manufacture and mining in 182 to nearly nine thousand million dollars, the result in large measure of the finghcial policy of the government prevailing for last thirty years.

The minister and his wife and their chil- ren take their meals in thelr own apart- ments, and therefore, unless the little ones are brought out by their nurses, the public will have few opportunities to watch them. The minister has three children, the oldest a boy of five, and the baby is not much more than a year. Secretary and Mrs. Carlisle are enter- taining Miss Mattie Thompson, who ar- rived from New York this morning.

J., which she is fast con- verting into @ private park after the man- ner of the English, using as a model the world renowned estate of the Duke of Devonshire, She fortunately possesses an enormous capital and has plenty of ex- perience, pluck and energy to carry such an extensive project through. After a few days more the tide of fash- fonable travel will turn toward Lenox, where the hills will soon take on their autumn glories and society will again view itself Ly the glow of the firesiie. The list of entertainments promised is not very tm- Posing, but plenty of “njoyment will be crowded into the coming six weeks. The Russian minister, Prince Cantacuzene, and Mr. Botkine are now there and the many nent people who left Bar Harbor and ewport the past week will be next heard of in the Berkshire hills.
