The Chinese minister to Washing- ton is to be &n outstanding- figure in the serious conferences which will | F} begin here in November, and his wife | | ranks among the most important hostesses domiciled here. Washing- ton knows her only slightly, for she has arrived here only within the month, accompanied by her three |} little children, after she had passed the spring and autumn with her par- ents in central China. But the minister-grew up in Wash- ington and he is the proud boast of thé old Central High School, former- 1y on 7th and O streets, for his at- tainments in diplomacy. From the Central High he took a scholarship at Cornell and outstripped all his col- leagues, s0 that on getting his de- gree he also received u minor gov- ernorship in one of the lower Chinese provinces and has steadily climbed to Ppre-eminence. Mme. Alfred Sze, for S0 Is the name abbreviated, like all the maidens of her class, is a perfect English scholar and her education in- cluded some months in & great Eng- lish school, as well as studying un- der private teachers in Paris. She was in London with her small family ‘when the irreconcilable attitude of MISS DOROTHY WARREN, Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bates War- rem, who will sail November 23 to spend the winter abroad.

Mme. Alfred i looking, as are orient, and her glossy black hair is |ff always dressed 1u e . .. . i She wears the European costume en- tirely, as the Chinese and Japanese do in alien countries.. And her house- hold to a certain extent is conducted after the prevailing method in Wash- ington. But the minister has the privilege of bringing a retinue of servants, and even thé recent change in the form of government in the oid ||| empire does not affect the almost feudal dependence of these retainers.
