Though Princess Blbesco, wife of the minister from Rumania, is a dis- tinctly important figure in Washing- ton’s cosmopolitan circle, there is much interest in the other two ladies who are a part of the person- nel of that legation.

He died at his post in 1898, and during the interim before the appointment of Gen. Aspiroz, M. Covarrublas acted as charge d'affaires. Miss Rose was too young then to take much note of soctal happen- ings, but she had figured in the juvenile parties of her day given by Mme. Romero, and which had be- come such an accepted and enjo able part of the Christmas holiday during the Romero residence i Washington. Senor Covarrubias came to the capital as a student in 1884, and, after the benevolent custom of those days, he was given a post in the legatjon, and was for a time private secretary to Mr. Romero. Taking his | degree at the George Washington niversity, though it was then the olumbian, he entered on the usual career of the diplomat, and after five vears was removed from this capital to Paris. He went in rapid succession from one European capis to another -and married a lad of Jumanian® and partly Belonging to the old regime, the Covarrubias family fared ill after the forced resignation of President Diaz and the succeeding disorganiza- tion of the Mexican Republic.

She was prominent in all the activities of the younger set about Roslyn and other parts of Long Island. Her marriage occurred there in September, 1921, and after a jaunt to Europe, M. Drutzu being attached to the permanent diplomatic staff of Rumania, they found a pleasant home in § street near 19th. The Drutzus will, when little Anne Marie, who has seen just six weeks of existence, is more mature and stronger, take part in some of the pleasant events of the spring.
