The Marriage of Miss Leech and Mr. Monks Next Week — Comings and Goings—Person: Plans for the summer are a frequent topic these days. In some. quaiters, where Eu- rope and Paris dxposition are constant- ly talked ghoul, one could infer that Wash- ingtonia il be scarce the coming sum- mer at tering places, while in as against ihe Maine coast, or vice ver thai the attractions on this pond have not lessened. A contemplate but short . from the capital the next six months, makes a cymfortable feeling that even the great folks need not be lone- some—if necessity keeps them here during that interval. European traveling, as far as the cabinet families are concerned, is not likely to be very extensive. The exigencies of public life, as well as the possibilities of making any decided plans ahead of the conventions, are stubborn facts. Until Congress ad- journs the capital will continue being sociable in a formal way, with now and then an entertainment of a more ambitious character. The Corcoran house garden party Mon- day last helped many a wavering mind to final selections for summer gowns. There were two or three dozen worn which were in daylight for the first time and very suc- cessfully outlined the leading styles for 1900. The novelties in hats are by no means as marked—in fact, the prettiest things seen Were probably left over from last season. The dress show was especially valuable for muslin and white materials. A handsome young matron wore a white India silk, which may be duplicated, al- though the exact effect is impossible with- out the satiny texture of the silk and the rich tint of the cream lace insertions. The skirt was tucked in clusters from the belt to a foot from the hem, separated by lace insertions. A narrow black velvet ribbon wound twice about the high collar ended in a rosette in front. The black hat was trimmed only in white tulle rosettes. An- other young matron. always perfectly gewned, wore a dotted white lawn. The skirt was in kilt plaits, flaring at the hem. The walst had sleeves with flaring cuffs ending just below the elbow, showing the full undersleeves of fine white mull. These latter are quite the feature of the new dresses, They are made of plalted chiffon ov any other thin maie trimming the ar but the mull sleeves with a tight ist-band of fin sion revivec ems most in favor. ulard on Gne of the prettiest young gi ‘as in a spotted black on a white ground. > skirt was tucked and black velvet ribbon ran in and out the top of the waist, which had a white yoke. The velvet was tied in a bow on one side of the front. An- other foulard in old rose and white had a lace girdle over white, bell sleeves and clese undersleeves of black and white dot- ted net, made over white. This filmy ma- terial also formed the yoke. The collar was edged with narrow black velvet. In fact, there was scarcely a new dress or hat in which black ribbon velvet did not form a part, if not all, of the trimming. The frequent announcements of engage- ments lately has been quite a subject of pleasant comment. Some good people who take a laudable interest in the affairs of others say that the limit has not been reached at al!, and that some very great surprises in this line may be expected be- fore long. One of the widows whose next choice has been mentioned is said to be positively embarrassed by the numerous of- fers already received, and there Is conse- quently more than usual curiosity as to which willing Individual will win the prize. The younger women insist that the interest manifested in the love affairs of persons old enough to be grandmothers and grand- fathers is not the proper spirit for this time of the year and detracts from romances which fn this season might naturally be given to themselves. The marriage of Miss Frances Frederica Leech and Mr. Lester Hawthorn Monks of Boston will take place next Thursday at the Church of the Covenant at noon. The prepossessing young bride will be attended by a maid of honor, Miss Furman of Roch- ester, N. Y., and two small flower girls, Katherine Leech and Frederica Morgan. Mr. George Monks of Boston will be best man, and most of the ushers will come from out of town also—Messrs. Archibald Monk Charles Leland and George Warren of Bo: ton, Edmund Stevens of Rochester, with Dr. Clayton and Mr. Charles McKenny of this city.
