This Pleasant Amnouncement is In- teresting News Here, as Else- where—Personals. The engagement of Miss Pauline Whit- ney, daughter of ex-Secretary William C. Whitney, to Almeric H. Paget of St. Paul, Minn., was announced yesterday by friends of the family, and naturally aroused much interest. Miss Whitney is about twenty years old. She is a tall, handsome girl, at- tractive and accomplished. She has a charming disposition and gentle tempera- ment, and is a favorite of all who know her. While her father was Secretary of the Navy Miss Whitney was at boarding school, but the holiday vacations were al- ways memorable events by the entertain- ments given by her mother to her daugh- ter’s young companions. The famous Christmas tree pafties, one for society and the other for the youngsters from St. John’s Orphanage, the most elaborate juvenile fetes Washington had ever seen, were instances of the pleasures devised for them. Miss Whitney’s education was com- pleted in Europe, and she was formally presented to society at a magnificent ball given by her parents at their New York home early in December, 1892, and im- mediately became one of the favorites and ornaments of society circles. Henry Payne Whitney and Payne Whit- ney and Miss Dorothy Whitney are the other children of the ex-Secretary. The late Mrs. Whitney will always be remem- bered as the most conspicuously brilliant woman of the last decade in this city, and, indeed, also in New York. She was a daugh- ter of the late Senator Henry B.-Payne of Ohio, from whom she inherited a large fcrtune. Mr. and Mrs. Whitney were mar- ried in 1872. About eleven years ago, says the New York Tribune, Mrs. Whitney's brother, Col. Oliver H. Payne, purchased the house at the southwest corner of 5th avenue and 57th strcet, New York, built by and fcrmerly the home of Mrs, Frederic Stevens, now the Duchess de Dino, who is this summer occupying a cotiage at El- keron, Long Branch. Col. Payne, who had already shown his brotherly affection by giving $1,000,000 to his sister on the occa- sion of the birth of her first child, also presented to Mrs. Whitney the 5th avenue mansion, for which he paid over $650,000. Mrs. Whitney, when the house was trans- ferred to her, made many changes in the interior arrangements, the most important of which was the addition of a ball room, which extends the entire length of the house, and is decorated in white and gold. This magnificent room, which has a raised platform of marble for the musicians at its Western end, was opened to the friends of Mr. and Mrs. Whitney with an entertain- ment in March five years ago. Since the death of her mother, in Fevruary two years ago, Miss Whitney has not taken part in any of the social entertainments in New York. Her health for two or three years has not been of the best, and shortly after the death of her mother, with her father, sister und brother, she went on a achting cruise in southern waters. Be- ‘cre the summer season set in Mr. Whit- ney took his family to the south of France. On his return he took possession of Stan- Tey Mortimer’s beautiful place on Spring Hill, Westbury, Long Island, where the fall and autumn were spent. On account ef his daughter's poor health, Mr. Whitney sailed from New’ York early last December in the steamship Majestic for the purpose of passing the winter on the Nile. It was on this trip up the Nile that Miss Whitney first met Mr. Paget. Mr. Whitney and his famfly returned from Europe in June, and are spending the summer at Bar Harpor. Almeric Hugh Paget is the youngest son of the late General Lord Alfred Paget, and was born in 1861. He came to the United Btates to seek his fortune when he was atout sixteen years old. During the first few years of his life in this country he worked on a ranch in the far west, but soon he moved to St. Paul, Minn., and struck cut for himself in the real estate business. He had no financial backing worth the mention, but by business abilit: and perseverence, combined with the w: ern energy which Be had absorbed, he was soon enabled to amess a respectable for- tune. His success attracted attention abroad, and he was invited to undertake the management on this side of an English company. His opinion is that there is no country and no district of a country to compare with that_wherein he won success and fortune. Lord Alfred Paget, C. B., Almeric Pag>t's father, was born in 1816, and died in 1888, and was the fifth son of the first Marquis of Anglesey. Lord Alfred was a general in the British army, and cbief equerry to the queen. He held’a conspicuous place at court during his lifetime, owing in part to his intimate association with the late prince consort, and to the nigh regard in which he was personally held by the queen her- self. He married in 1817 a daughter of George Thomas Wyndham of Cromer Hall, Nerfolk, and was the father of fourteen children. The eldest son, Col. Arthur Paget, was for five years a page of honor to Queen Victoria, and subsequently re- ceived a commission, which he now holds, in the first battalion of the Scots Guards. He received a medal for his services in the Ashantee war of 1873, and was also en- gaged in the Nile expedition in 1885. The colonel married in 1878,a daughter of the late Mrs. Paran Stevens. Another of Aimeric Paget's brothers is Capt. Alired Paget of the navy, who dis- finguished himself in the Egyptian war, while one of his sisters has held the place of maid of honor to the queen. Her majesty has stood sponsor to one of che girls, the prince consort to another, and the Princess of Wales to a third, while the prince himself is the godfather of Col. Arthur Paget's eldest boy. The date of the wedding has rot yet been fixed. Senator and Mrs. Frye are at their cot- tage at Squirrel Island, Maine. Justice and Mrs. Brewer and the Misses Brewer are at Thompson's Point, Burling- ton, Vt., for the summer. Mrs. U. S. Grant, who has been at Man- chester, Vt., has found Vermont so at- tractive that she will remain under the shadows of its green mountains for a greater part of the season. Mrs. J. A. Coombs and daughter have gone to Point Lookout for the summer. Mrs, O. C. Garges and her son, Mr. A. C. Garges, are at Fortress Monroe and Old Point, and will visit Norfolk and Ports- mouth before their return, : On next Wednesday morning, July 31, Miss Mary V. Auldridge ard Mr. Frank E.

Washington People Keeping Cool at Cape May. Correspondence of The Evening .r. CAPE MAY, July 25, 1895. Since the departure of the fifth Maryland regiment for home Saturday the continuous round of events which were given them have been taken up by a social existence not so exciting.

The weather has become more settled, too, and clear skies have taken the place of easterly, foggy weather, which at first was a drawback to the seashore business.

A wager of $850 against $500 has been made that the Defender would beat Valkyrie IJI in the cup race. It is sup- pcsed to have been made for W. K. Van- derbilt. There is a lot of monéy ready to be put up. A number of bookmakers have been approached, but little or no business has done, because the bookmakers prefer to lay against the challenging yacht. They want toc big odds to suit the De- fender men. —E— Dr. Egan Coming to Weshington.
