Tales of Well Known Folk I in Social and Official Life That winter colony at Thomasville, Ga., which has been endeavoring to bring back the old life of the south in the ante bellum sense, has been watched with considerable interest. According to the few living witnesses of the plantation existence prior to 1861, quite a resemblance has been | evolved, though naturally the colo- nists are experiencing some difficulty in returning to the simple days of old. "Especially is this acute in re spect to dom retainers. How ever much the romantic denizens in the plantation houses relish w: candles and oil lamps. it is far from casy to get maids who are willing to care for them. Mrs. Hanna is one of the habitues of Thomasville her home is ideal, though it the town proper and not in the land. The Payne Whitneys ha come to their extensive domain this ear. It is a real plantation, with many relics of the past glories and one of the most wonderful groves of cypresses to be found in this area. Washington took keen interest in the impressive reception given by the Academy of the Immortals in Paris, hen M. Jules Cambon, in recognition f his fifty years of diplomatic service, s admitted. Although a man_ of t pacific ideas, it has been the fate of M. Cambon to render exceptional | in time of war. He was am- assador from France in Washington during the Span American war, and | took over Spanish affairs during the conflict. He was also the intermediary | between the warring nations and acted | conspicuously in the signing of the col and later during the negotia- tions for peace in Paris. He was the wise and forceful governor of Algiers during a distracting eriod, and im-} mediately after was sent to Berlin to | guard French interests during the crisis incident to the troubles over ier and Algeciras. M.Cambon was 1 vears in Berlin. He is affection- ately remembered in Washington by hundreds of friends who rejoice at the bonor now bestowed upon him. Another historic and elegant for- eign establishment is added to the per- anent possessions of this country in famous Blue Palace in Warsaw by Mr. Hugh As in nearly all the anci nt cities of ier to acquire a medieval castle than a modern or moderately sized domicile. The Blue Palace is, however, more up-to-date than the average palace in Warsaw or any other place. It was built by the great Saxon king, August the Strong, to whose efforts so much of the architectural beauty of Dresden is due, and as a wedding gift to his daughter Anna, who had become Princess Orzelska. As time was short before the princ left her home forl Warsaw, workmen labored by torch- light as’ well as daylight during six months of the Polish winter. The Warsaw, went to a learned soci under which many modern conven iences were added. Mr. Gibson, who intimate knowledge of life in Slavic countries, has his entire lega- tion housed under the famous roof, many of the bachelors having cham- bers equipped as in a bachelor apart- ment house, and yet there are salons and picture galleries and grand con- nt for ent and for general reunion tion offices are at pres perb library. Though the mansion is Mr. Gibson will not be permitted to bear such a heavy financial burden alone. All the artistically inclined feel a deep interest in the wedding, in Taormina, Sicily, on January 10, of Miss Margaret French, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Chester French, and Mr., William Penn Cresson, details of which have just reached friends here. The distinguéshed sculptor has friends all along the Medi- terranean ports and they came in la numbers to his lovely villa, not far dis- | tant from Palermo. It was an al fresco affair, with all the rites of the old Greeks and Latins, flower girls and pages and a bridal bower of genuine roses and flowering orange trees. Mrs. Cresson has inherited her father's talent and she has aiready acquired some fame molding clay. She wiil continue her! work in a serious manner from her| new home near Brussels. Mr. Cresson belongs to a historic and distinguished family of Pennsylvania. The romance began while he was in the dipiomatic service and stationed in Paris. He re- signed when this country declared war | against. Germany and entered the air | service. He h: elected to remain in the Army, and is now stationed at the Belgian (@pital with the American mili- tary misson, Some Washington people recently all agog over the return of vine Sarah”<to the dramatic stage. This event was scheduled for last week, when the great tragedienne the di- appeared in Louis Verneull's four-act play, “Daniel” As the hero, Bern- dt may hide her infirmity by sit- ting in a great armchair in ail the principal scenes. Another morsel of gossip is that the actress has decided to sell her stronghold in Brittany called “the Beautiful Isle of the Sea. Here she was having her tomb hol- lowed out of a rock which projects far into the surf and where the waves would eternally sing her requiem But Sarah’s thoughts now are evi- dently on life. and not death, and she is remodeling_her handsom& apart- ment in Rue Balzac, where she will reside until e, and where she will_hold her celebrated salons for o first time since the sad days after no hope, however, held at ie contemplates leaving aris, as, despite her energy and pluck, she is fragile in health. So mild has been the winter that white cloth wraps, once confined to southern resorts, are now frequently to be seen in the afternoon, when i the modish are abroad. Miss Kath- ‘erine Mackay has been attending and t onarecent s vhen furs were unthinkable, v_swathed in a cape which has been modeled after those worn by the Dominican monks of the medieval ages. It is made of the rough bure cloth, which is a manufacture of southern Iiurope intended especially for monastic uses, but which draped in circular fashion and trimmed elab- orately with vellow woolen braid is admirable for afternoon wear. The hood, which is always a feature of the Dominican cape is, in this in- stance, made of tulle, with a rim of ermine and a eluster of rosebuds tucked in at the throat. Another cffcctive afternoon cape is one seen ception at the British nd is of pale blue cloth, drooping in fiv alix like folds. which are emphagized by strands of crystal beads and deep-blue buttons of cnamel.

A mar- velous gown recently was worn at a Paris fete by Mrs. George Widener of Philadelphia,and was of soft, lusterless taffeta_in pale vellow, draped with net covered in vivid green beads. White, with_all the varieties of rose color, is the proper hue for summer, with au- tumn being allowed all the glory of the turning leaves and the brilliant skies rays, purples, browns and blues are propriate for winter, and, says the master designer Mat if women would follow this schedule they would appear at their best and in conformity | with nature and her moods.

The Batchellers own a charming villa on the hills above Florence, and it was their privilege to entertain the young Princess Maria Josef of Belgium during her exile in Italy when the fate of Bel- gium hung in the balance. During threg Christmas holidays Mr. and Mrs. Batch- eller entertained lavishly for the lovely little girl, said to be the most beautifu] maid of ro; their parties for her are part of the few Eright memories of those evil da; All the small Americans in Rome and near- by cities came 1o the fetes and were the guests at the villa for days.
