THE LATEST GOSSIP —_ + —— Well, well, the world moves on. Mrs. Curzon has dined the Prince of Wales, an oriental higness and a few other grandees at her first big din for which Mr. Lel- ter and family just reached London in time. Right on top of this comes the an- nouncement today of the appointment of the Hon. Geo. N. Curzon as under gecre- tary of state, so that the prophecies of his speedy prominence indulged in ut the time of his marriage are certainly backed up by facts. In a matrimonial way the eldest daughter of the house of Leiter has eclipsed all competitors the past spring. Private letters from Vanity Fair indicate that her beauty and attractive manner have established her personal popularity and that her ‘success has been assured from the start. That the fortune or income thereof which the Leiter millions has set- tled upon her is an ample one goes without saying. Such a plunge into the luxurious- ness of a London season as the Curzons are making at Carlton Terrace represents a tidy little fortune by itself, and this is cnly the start. And the beauty of it all is that the young woman who is creating all this stir is thoroughly bappy herself and not living only for che idle display her father’s millions will permit her to make. Apropos of the success which Washington girls aimost invariably make in foreign cir- cles has aroused some interesting discus- sion among people just now who are as thoroughly familiar with persons and points on the other side as they are of af- fairs at home. The intimate acquaintances which are possible here in the diplomatic circle and the enlarged ideas of life in gen- eral which naturally accompany such friendships are perhaps the best foundation for the ease with which they adapt them- selves to a foreign atmosphere. New York giris have loads of morey, and therefore handicap most Washington girls, but they do not bask all the year around in the smiles of a foreign ambassador or minister nor can they be sure of having a diplomatic attache to add variety to a dinner party nor accompany them on a wheeling spin, such as is possible almost any time ere. The prominent place which Mrs. Joseph Chamberlain, formerly Mary Endicott, will take now in London society is more pleasant reading for friends on this side. The most recent matrimonial engagement of an international character is that of Miss Culien and Mr. Suane, formerly of the Spanish legation and now attached to the home office of foreign affairs in Madrid. It is thought that the marriage will take place very shortly, but may possibly be postponed till-the return of the family to their residence here in the autumn. Mr. Suane is now in this country on leave of absence, and is well known here. Miss Cul- len is the daughter of the late Judge Cul- len cf Brooklyn. The family own the fine residence on K street which was occupied during their long absence abroad by Sec- retary Tracy, during the last administra- tion. Mrs. Cullen is an aunt of Mrs. Pres- ton Sands. While social life in these parts is just at present barren of events and therefore of facts, the tendency to romancing and gos- siping is naturally trebly excited. It is not surprising how the little stories re- peated last winter in a hesitating sort of way, either at the clubs or in a strictly feminine circle, which is usually the first to get any and all sorts of idle rumors into shape, are row retailed with the abso- lute fidelity to time, place and persons cal- culated to make the unsuspecting believe the statement ts really true. The amount of mischief which the idle repetition of stories of matrimonial infelicities, ete., and domestic affairs in general cause is neve: fully estimated except by their unhappy victims, and it would be a useful resolution for each and every person likely to have idle hours on their hands the coming two months to resolve not to talk themselves or allow any malicious reference in their presence to the affairs of people who are not on hand to take up the cudgels in their own behalf. The gossiping habit is a bad one. in a small community like this and those who contribute to its continuance need not be surprised when they get a dose of their own medicine. Lately a large group of representative society people was seated around on the balcony of a fashtonabie hotel. One of the spring stock of stories, respecting a mar- riage made in somewhat of haste to be repented of In leisure, was being told, and the remnant of the character left to the parties was being critically dissected. Dainty ladies, who ought under ordinary circumstances have shuddered at the mere knowledge of the crimes they so trippingly recited, told all they had heard, and the few to whom it had been news could not conceal their horror. A man had the nerve to say: ‘Whew! I am glad you are all through with that story,” hut one woman who had the courage of her convictions put a forcible sermon into a few words, when she said, “Good night, everybody; spare me when I am gone.” The worst of it is that the persons who are largely to be biamed for the persistent repetition of various bits of gossip lately, for which It would be hard to find the slightest founda- tion in fact, are themselves the best-mean- ing souls in the world, and would be the last to do anything to hurt another, either in reputation or pocket—if they gave a mo- ment’s reftection to the seriousness of it. A lady here, who has the reputation of knowing pretty much everything that goes on in society, but who could not be tempted to part with any inside information, no matter how severe the cross-examination, Startled a lot of gossipers the other day with, “Shame, girls; you ought to have your tongues washed off with soapy wa- ter,” and the reproof was so apropos that none of them could get displeased. Newport without either Mrs. Paran Ste- vens or Ward McAllister must seem very strange to its old frequenters. Yet there wilt be few to remember all their skillful managing and kindly help, and the proces- sion will go just the same. Instead of ene great leader each family now has its own personal conductor to make the moves, if its noniinal head has neither the skill nor the taste for it. It was expected that Senator-elect Wetmore of Rhode Island, who has a splendid villa, would help to make the summer a brilliant one and con- test first place with the other millionaire seratorial resident, Calvin S. Brice. The Wetmores, however, haye announced that the chances are they will not occupy their Place till the fashionable season is over, which leaves the field clear for the Brices, who are, it goes without saying, just as Fepular in Newport as they are here. Ore of the interesting rumors afloat as to next winter's prospects has taken most extravagant shape. One family are coming here to show what they can do in the way of entertainmert, and have in contempla- ticn the payment of $15,000 for the use of the house they have selected for the sea- scn. If they start in like that and keep it up society will gladly furnisn a halo and a | pair of wings for each and every member of this charmed circle and furnish them with a certificate warranted to effect en- trance ard social triumphs anywhere the world over. One of the long-standing engagements which ara so familiar in everybody's ac- quaintance has taken quite a demi-novel atmosphere, now that a little new light has been let in. The marriage has been hang- ing fire for years, and the chances are that without this otter turn it will really take place some time within the rext five years if the principals retain the good health and spirits for which they have been noted ‘“e consummation of their hopes. where the interesting turn comes in. There are two suitors, not one alone, as everybody thought. One, like the visitation of the locusts, gets pretty hot on the chase for his lady’s hend once every seven years, and the other has turned up annually, : from a far western ranch, and in the dead of the win- ter transformed the lady's boudoir into a y and so beautiful \y 7s he sends her of his lcve. Now, waich will it be—the man who is so certain he need not worry only now and then over the outceme of the long wait, or the other, who comes once @ year to see if his devotion is likely to be re- warded? At the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Holmes, 2011 Florida avenue, on Wednesday evening last a host of friends were assembled to witness the marriage of their daughter, Mary Eliza- beth, to Mr. Martin Doc Downs. In the attractively decorated perlor Rev. Father Kervick of the Church of the Holy Name performed the ceremony. The bride was at- tended by her sister, Miss Loretta Holmes, the groomsman being Mr. James L. Ma- gruder. The bride's dress was of brocaded silk, trimmed in silk lace, and the brides- mald was becomingly attired in white Swiss. Beautiful bunches of La France roses were carried by the bride and her attendant. After the reception of friends and the enjoyment of a delightful collation Mr. and Mrs. Downs took the 10 o'clock train for the north, intending visiting Bal- tmore, Philadelphia and New York. On their return they will reside at Landover, Md. They received many beautiful presents. Among the arrivals from Washington at Bar Harbor are Admiral ahd Mrs. Self- ridge, Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Barney, the Misses Barney, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Mc- Cauley, Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. Gray, Mr. Hugh and Mrs. McMillan, Mr. and the Misses Maury, Mrs. and the Misses Pay- son, Prof. and Mrs, Gerbt, Admiral and Mrs. Upshur and Dr, G. Fairfax Whiting, The Rev. J. A. Aspinwall and family left the city on Wednesday and will spend the summer in Europe. _ Miss Jennie Read will leave on Monday for Shepherdstown, W. Va., where she will spend the summer. The engagement of Miss Loulse D. Wink- ler, daughter of Gen. and Mrs, F. C. Wink. ler of Milwaukee, to Dr. Henry B. Hitz is announced in that city. Dr. Hitz is a nephew of Mr. John Hitz of this city, and is well known here. Miss Bertha G. Carroll of 20th street northwest is visiting the Misses Waugh, at their cottage, Piney Point. Mr. A. S. Wilkins, Miss E. B. Wilkins and J. Howard Wilkins of this city are at Frostburg, Md. aie Miss Blanche Street {8 visiting Mr. and Mrs. Walter Lewis Priddy, at their country home, Relay, Md. Mrs. P. B.

Smith and her daughter, Mrs. George C. Dean, left for Rock Enon Springs this morning. Mr. Smith leaves to- night for Hot Springs, Va., and later will join his family. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Edward: Walker re- gret that they must recall the invitations which have been issued for the marriage of their daughter, Eva, to Mr. Lauren J. Tay- lor of Kentucky, Tuesday, July 2, at 5:30 o'clock. Miss Walker, while convalescing rapidly from her recent illness, is still too weak to stand any excitement, and the ceremony will be performed quietly at home, in the presence of the immediate family. Lieut. Ben. Walker Atkinson, with his wife and daughter, are visiting his parents, Gen. and Mrs. H. G. Gibson, 2104 Ward place. Miss M. Virginia Fribley, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Enoch Fribley, 731 lth street northwest, is visiting the family of Mr. and Mrs. Heinecke at Arundel-on-the-Bay. Dr. and Mrs. L. D.
