SOC Tales of Well Known Folk In Social and Official Life Senor Beltran Mathieu, the Chilean Ambassador, At 73, Is Nestor of Washington Diplomats. BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. Senor Beltran Mathieu, the Ambas- sador from Chile, who is the vice dean of the corps, is the Nestor of Wash. ington diplomatists in point of vears | and in polnt of service. He has al ready entered his 73d year, but Chile has no age retirement. and the mem- bers of its foreign service may con tinue in the harness as long as they feel inclined. The Chilean Ambassador first came to Washington when the Grover Cleveland administration was young. and he is the only member of the corps who can point to a service that far back in the national history He remained as secretary of the then Chilean legation until Cleveland had given way to Benjamin Harrison, when he was elected to the Chilean Congress and departed for his own country. He served in Congress from 1889 until 1 d was then named Minister to Ecuador and later to the Central American Union of Repub- lies. He was minister of war and of the marine in the Chilean cabinet, 1901-3, and then served for a time as Minister to various South American capitals, 1.a Paz. Buenos Aires and Bogota. Since 1918 he has been’ Am- hassador to Washington from the “hilean Republic. Senor Mathleu is a most accom- plished orator, and his address at the gathering of Latin American diplo- mats when they were the guests of the State of Virginia was a splendid effort which deserves to be universally circulated in pamphlet form in this| country as well as his own. His glow. ing tribute to the Old Dominfon and to her sons, Washington and Jeffer- gon. who furnished both the sword and the pen of the Revolution, was re- ceived with tumultous applause. de Mathieu, who is one o ers in the-diplo- Ambassador, Chile, and be- enorita Elena took place fn and the ic wing, a native of ( fore her marriage was Serrano le marria Santiago in Novembe: young couple passed the ©f their union in Buenos Aires is, neepcior The Ambassador has abandoned his idea of touring the | country by motor because his wite ghters preferred to pass a few weeks in Newport before the two mar- | ried daughters of the household join | them later.

M. Her- riot had two of his creations so hon- ored. that exquisite deep saffron rose which he called for his native city, “The Star of Lyons” and which is among the few vellow and really de pendable roses of the Summer gar- den. For his splendid rose called for his wife, “Mme. Edouard Herriot,” the former premier not only received a_ certificate from Bagatelle, but - he obtained the £1,000 prize offered by the Dally Mail. ‘M. Herrfot will be a guest of the rose testing garden at Arlington Farms, when the Secretary of Agriculture will be his host and he will also be proffered u reception at the headquarters of the American Rose Society in Philadelphia and will prob- ably meke an address to the gem- e Mary Wallace, in the form of ‘a rose, is among' the Aperican suc- cesses of the queen of flowers in France. Every year a certain num. ber of new American roses are ex- changed for new French ones, but few remain popular, or on the open markeét, more than a season ar two. But the full creamy, pink rose named for the elder daughter of the late Secretary of Agriculture, Henry Cant- well Wallace, has proven an exception and It is a favorite for house decora- perhaps more so in France than in the country of its birth. The Bagatelle testing irdens have ac- cepted but few of the enormous out- | put of American roses, but the Radiance, My Marvland and American Beauty, had preceded the Mary Wal- lace. 'he test continues for two y 'S in this famous French rose plantation so that no verdict has yet been issued about that bloom which is so univer sally beloved in Washington, the Columbia, and of which thousands of lustrous pink blooms make the rose garden along the Speedway such a glory all through Spring, Summer until jate Autumn Mme.

On certain days there are good lively political talks, fine music and occosfonally a lecture on art or literaturs. But no card-playing, no elaborate luncheon service, nothing of which Sir lan complains is to ‘be found in this woman's club. Of courss, there are feminine clubs in New' York for pleasure alone as there are in London and in the majority of large Amert- can cities. But they do not make such an important factor in social in- tercourse as the British women have permitted them to be. When George Washington was in- augurated on April 30, 1789, he and his stately lady, Mrs. Martha, re- turned from the brilllant ceremont: to the residence which had b prepared for them in Cherry street, 4 mansion famous in the era as the most hospitable of homes, that of the Franklyns.

But the tall handsome facades . of pillars which were to grace the main entrance were not finished before the seat of govern- ment was moved to Pkiladelphia. This ended the presidential residence in the greatest American, City. The Franklyn mansion survived many yvears after fashion had depart. ed from Cherry street and its neigh- borhood, but it had been written firmly into the social annals of New York, not only the very first home used by the first President of the United States after taking the oath of office, but also for the brilliant record of the two daughters, one of whom mar- ried De Witt Clinton, later Governor of New York, and the other Citizen Genet, French Minister, who was re-. called at President Washington's re- quest and who resided in the self. same house after the Washingtons had departed for Bowling Green.

He will at the end of his vacation be assigned to duty in Washington and this to the great gratification.of his many friends. He passed most of his late Willlam Belden Noble and grand- daughter of the late Senator Yules of Florida. For geveral years the young people resided in Mrs. Noble's e on N street near Eighteenth, and®al- most directly opposite the home of Gen.
