THE SOCIAL WORLD A Moonlight Fete to Mark the Czar’s Coronation. SUMMER PLANS AND PLEASANT ROMORS Where Washingtonians Will Enjoy Their Vacations. OTHER TIMELY GOSSIP —_-+_2_ j The past week has been most interesting in a social way, and nothing but good weather is necessary to complete the at- tractive program arranged for the coming fortnight. The Russian minister’s corona- tion fete Tuesday evening at ‘Beauvotr’ will bo a charming novelty in the way of hospitality if the rains cease and a moon- lt sky illumines the seene. There will be music on the lawn, fireworks, dancing pa- vilions and everything delightful gener- ally, if the weather conditions only serve. Summer plans are the general topics of conversation. The warm weather began so early this spring that it will make the summer a long one. The fashionable world is bending its energies in preparations to leave town, but late June will find a strong contingent here yet, and many official households will scarcely separate for a month later. It is understood that Mrs. Cleveland and the children will be off to Gray Gables early in June, and the Presi- dent will follow as soon as Congress ad- journs. Mrs. Stevenson and Miss Letitia Steven- son will go to West Point about the Sth of June, and will not return to this city again until next autemn. There is a rumor that while Mavroyeni Bey has been succeeded by Mustapha Bey, that it does not necessarfly mean that the former leaves this country. No member of the fashionable set at Bar Hardor or Newport would be as keenly missed, so the rumor is well timed, in these days of sad partings. a Another rumor has it that Mr. Marshall Field, the millionaire merchant of Chicago, intends to make this city his winter home. He is to build a palace of such proportions as to give his entree a profound impression, and his daughter, Mrs. Arthur Tree, and her husband will come from England more frequently to enjoy it with him.

Their young friends had festconed both horse and trap with chiffon, ribbons and orange blossoms. A yellow satin slipper tied with ribbons had a prominent place, and the cart was lit- erally filled with rice. Another shower of rice fell on the couple as they stepped in and their path to the train was marked by a line of glistening rice.

W. liams, who is stationed at New London, Conn. | Mrs. Williams has been an invalid for sixteen years, since her husband was stationed in San Francisco.

A Street Railroad Complaint From Capitol HinL Residents of Capitol Hill do not regard with equanimity the present condition of affairs which makes it necessary for them stand in the mud while waiting to board the cable cars of the Capital Traction Com- pany, whose line in that section runs through a parking in the center of Penn- sylvania avenue. Some of these have turn- ed to The Star for sympathy and one cor- respondent writes: “Will you not take up the cudgel im be- half of a patient and long-suffering public of Capitol Hill, and endeavor, through the medium of your valuable paper, to shaine the Capital Traction Company into paving the parking adjacemt to tts tracks at stop- ping points east of 2d street. All winter long we have been compelled to stand it tbe mud and slush in the hope that railroad company, in appreciation of value of its franchise, might recognize its corresponding duty to the public, but in vain do we still wait. The poor farepayer is compelled to ride anyhow, and the fact that he does seems in the eyes of the cor- poration a sufficient consideration for the privilege, whatever the demands of public convenience.’ It may be said m explanation, though not in justification of the situation, that when the “far-side” stopping rule was in opera- tion, the railroad company paved with flagging those portions of the parking through which its tracks were laid where the passengers boarded the cars. Since the “near-side” order was promulgated, how- ever, the passengers have been compelled to cross to the other side of the parking to take the cars, and in bad weather this has proved disagreeable. The difficulty would be entirely obviated If the railroad company were to remove its flagging to the near side to conform to the present practice of stop- ping street cars at crossings. —_ LAYING THE CORNER STONE.
