THE WEDDINGS GO BLITHELY ON Next Wednesday Will Be the Busiest One of All. SOME OTHER TOPICS The war scare is about over so far as it hindered summer plans among the resi- dential families, whose presence in Wash- ington, while always acceptable, is not by any means necessary. Those who have summer homes to go to, and it is astonish- ing how large this number increases from year to year, no matter how simple these domiciles may be, are getting ready to go to them or in many cases are already es- tablished for the heated term. Washing- tonians are pretty well scattered every summer, but as the contingent going abroad is very small at present, it will prob- ably be easier to reach them this year than heretofore. Officialdom is not quite as lucky. For the most of its prominent mem- bers there is every reason to presume that they will be able to speak advisedly of the merits of the capital as a summer resort. It is understood that President and Mrs. McKinley will remain here just as long as possible, but it is scarcely to be expected that the latter could stand the trying heat of the entire summer. Mrs. Day will not return to Washington until the fall. Secre- tary and Mrs. Gage will summer at Chevy Chase, as they did last year. Secretary and Mrs.Alger have made no plans for an out- ing till late in the season, and the families of the other members of the cabinet are all out of town for the summer. Among the diplomats the Austrian minis- ter makes the first move, as he leaves next week for New London, Conn., where he has taken a house. The Belgian minister and family are in New York, to remain a month and then return to Belgium for a visit. They will be in New York to enjoy the farewell feasting of Prince Albert of Belgium, for whose entertainment just be- fore he sails the Newport season will be opened a month earlier. Mrs. Potter Palm- er is to make his visit to Newport a mem- orable one. Senator Morrill has not decided when he will leave for the north, as he is, as usual, anxicus to remain as long as possible in his attendance at the Senate. Miss Swan and Mr. James Morrill will accompany him to ‘Vermont, where the summer will be passed. Justice Harlan and family leave town next week and are going to rusticate away up cn the Saguenay river, Canada, for the next two months, where fishing and out- door pleasure will be plentiful. Chief Justice and Mrs. Fuller grow more and more pleased every year with their home at Sorrento. They will go there the last days of this month, and shortly after their arrival it 1s expected the marriage of Mrs. Aubrey and Mr. Jessup Blair will take place. Mr. and Mrs. Charles G. Dulin will close their home on 16th street about the 20th of June and go to their place at Cambridge, Mass., for the summer.

Justice and Mrs. Brown are going to At- lantic City for a fortnight’s stay in a few days, and from there will go north, with a view of dividing the summer between vari- ous points in the Berkshires. Justice and Miss Brewer have left the city, and will be west all summer, the lat- ter intending to spend most of the time at Colorado Springs with her sister, Mrs. Karrick. Countess Esterhazy will go to Deer Park for the season. Mr. and Mrs. Parker Mann have opened up their home at Gloucester, Mass., whieh last season was greatly enlarged and beau- tified by the addition of a studio. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Moses and Mr. and Mrs. J. De Witt Arnold will also become members of the Washington colony at Groucester this summer.

Mrs. and Mrs. Ward Thoron are at Lenox, Moss., for the season. : Ex-Marshal and Mrs. A.- A. Wilson are at Chevy Chase with their daughter, Mrs. George Davis, who is charmingiy estab- lished there in a pretty home. Mrs. Romero, who was very ill during the. early part of this week, is improving every day, and it is expected will soon be able to be about again. If good wishes would cure this charming and greatly loved lady she would not have long to suffer, as her place in the hearts of Washington society is pre-eminent. As soon as her convales- cence is sufficiently advanced Mrs. Romero will go away for the summer. Mr. and Mrs. Leiter and daughters left for the west today. They are going to re- main awhile at their place on Lake Gene- va, Wisconsin. Later in the season Mrs. Leiter will go abroad to make a visit to her daughter, Mrs. Curzon.
