Tales of Well Known Folk In Sociglpnd Official Life Bachelors of High Degree Among Assets of Diplomatic Corps in Washington—Special Notes of BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. Bachelors of high degree are among the assets of the diplomatic corps as the social season opens In its most fascinating chapter, that devoted tp dining. There are five Minis- ters who are among the _eligible. These are M. Constantin Brun of Denmark and Viscount d'Alte of Portugal, both of whom have long been sought for guests. The Minister from Finland, M. Axel Leonard Astrom, is socially inclined and one of the bachelors who adds his share to the brilliancy of the season. So also the first secreta M. Bruno Kivikoski, who has been in Washing- ton less than a year. This young diplomat is a graduate of the ancient university at Helsingsfors and comes of a family which has been ensaged for centuries in the lumber industry of East Finland. M. Kivikoski has two voung sisters who reside in the old home_in Finland and to whom a visit to Washington may be among the possibilities of next Spring. The Minister from Costa Rica, Senor Rafael Oreamuno, is among the younger bachelor envoys, and so, too. is the scholarly Albanian. Dr. Fiak Konizta, who recently was added to the local corps. Both of these will take an active interest in social af- fairs. Sweden has a popular bachelor on the Minister's staff. Baron Lennart Rappe, who came to Washington late last Winter and was among those who participated in the gavety ar ranged for the royal visitors. Baron Rappe belongs to an old family of Stockholm and his father, whose name he bears, was for many vears in the wpper house of the Swedish Legisla- ture. Baron Rappe studied his pro- fession in the University end served in Bern, Bru London before coming to Washington. Debutantes in New York. Philadel- phia, Boston and the rger social centers invariably cultivate some par- ticular talent, and that aside from the customary drawing room accom- plishments, like dancing and the abil- ity to take a hand at cards. The daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Henr Michel of Chestnut Philadel- phia, Miss Helen Mis Michel. who were presented this mer in the Newport home. Lodge, are musicians of re tal- ent, one playing the harp with rare skill, and the other the violin, like a master. The Michels some years ago bought t famo home of the late Mrs. Btuyvesant Fish, Ochre Lodge, where the fotes originated by the versatile Harry Lehr took place and where in later years Mr. Lehr made his home with his wife, who former Mi: Jlizabeth Drexel.

Mr. Sum- Ochre and Mrs. George Kustis Cor- rcoran recently returned from Europe. where they spent two vears, and after a brief sojourn in Eustis Lodge. on Narragansett avenue, Newport, they are spending the Autumn in their home in Tuxedo. They have resumed their Sunday afternoon concerts, and Ars, Bustis, who was Miss Rosamund Street. has gained a wide reputation as a violinist and has spent much of her time in Europe under the best masters. Tuxedo has an enthusiastic musical colony. and the most delight- ful evenings devoted to Melpomene are arranged several times a weel Among these are Mr. and Mrs. Gu tave J. S. White, Mr. and Mr - mund Grinnell and Mr. Shafter How- ard, all of whom will remain until the eye of Christmas, entertaining each other and luring large companies down from New York. It is probable that Mr. and Mrs. Bustis Corcoran will come_to Washington later in the Winter. Their home has heen leased for some yea d has a year or two to run. Mr. Corcoran. whose name was changed from George Peabody Eustis to his present way of writing it. spent his bovhood in the fine old Corcoran house razed to make a site for the Chamber of Commerce. and he vetains a great fondness for his native city Boston’s fair vachtswomen staged a nicturesque sailing race last week Cohasset. on Massachusetts Bay. and though Miss Josephine Choate. grand- daughter of the eminent lawyer and diplomatist.

When Mr. Robert Swann Sturte- vant of Wellesley, Mass., was married during the early days of September to Miss Margaret Coolidge, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Coolidge of Milton. there was a quickening of interest all over the country where iris is grown. for he has been the secretary of the American Iris Society ever since its organization. The Iris garden at Welleslev is one of the reasons equally with the fine college and other famous institutions, that o many tourists choose a route through that quaint little city. The iris is a later hloom in Wellesley than on the Potomac, but the Sturtevants have learned to prolong the blooming sea- son almost to Autumn, and the ar- rangement of whites into pale blue, then the deeper shades to the royai purple. make a patch of color on the lawn that is comparable to the pinks and reds and whites when the roses bloom in Petomac Park. Miss Cool- idge, who is a distant kinswoman of the President, has shared her hus- band's devotion to the iris, and with him she will be connected with the Lowthorpe School of Landscape Archi- tecture, recently founded for the bere. fit of women in Groton, Ma Sturtevant is to he the pre the school, and his bride will continue her studies under him. Her former home in Milton has a beautiful garden of hulbs, and she has written enter- tainingly and profitably on garden theme: Dr. William Saunders of the Cana- dian_experimental farm at Ottawa | has just been awarded the gold medal | of the American Rose Society for the best new rose, the Agnes, put on the market during the current year. Dr. & successful experiment in rose culture has been in progress for some years, and the rose “Aznes” has been under his .eye since 1906. It is a deep vellow climbing rose, the chief charm of which is its early blooming and ability to retain its color against the sun and its rapid and sturdy growth. Planted in profusion in the renowed rose farms at Fort Stanley, near the Canadian capital, the “Ag- nes” received enthusiastic indorse- ment for first honors during the re- cent exchange of visits between the American Rose Society members and those of the Dominion. Almost a quarter of a mile of hedge was golden with blossoms, while the deep, rich foliage was reminiscent of that old favorite, the Keystone or Miccafallo rose. RBlooming in Ottawa in mid- June, the rese would undoubtedly come to perfection in this climate early in May or, in mild season, in April. thus superseding the Empress of China, the first to blossom here- abouts. Dr. Saunders has presented many bushes to American rosarians, and some will soon come to the ex- perimental farm at Arlington. This successful rosarian is the father of Dr. Charles Saunders, the discoverer of Marquis wheat, an achievement which won for him supreme honors among the competitors for the wheat growers’ prize some 15 years ago. Mr. Gordon Wordsworth, grandson of the poet, has been receiving with kindliness the scores of American guests who, in touring the lake coun- try of England, invariably pause at Grasmere. Mr. Wordsworth is the only son of the poet's youngest child and nam , William Wordsworth, and he makes his home all throug the year at Grasmere.

The héau- tiful Mrs. Fletcher, whose descendants preserve letters written her by Lon fellow and by Wordsworth, Hartle: Coleridge, Arnold, Charles Dickens | and Thackeray. was the wife of the rector of Grasmere, who figures so often in the Wordsworth poems. The father of Miss Charlotte Maria Fletch er was the third in line to hold this clerical holding, and was rector at Grasmere from 1878 to 1893.

The captain, who is extremely tall and martial looking, was an officer in the personal guard of the late Emperor of Russia and accompanied him and his family on the journey which ended so trag- fcally for all of them. He managed to escape in the approved way, for, as a cavalryman of grace and skill. he oui- rode his pursuers and made his way over the frontier, where his wife had preceded him, in disgulse, by a few days. Knowing many Chicagoans, the captain and his wife began their life in the New World there and they bave been able to clear a good sum out of teaching the mode of riding, which was in vogue when the Czar ruled in St. Petersburg. Mme. Ivanenko had a wide reputation in Russia for her ability to train ‘wild horses and she always accompanied her hushand on his journeys into the steppes, where spirited mounts are procured for the tournaments and jousts which were almost _as_exciting as ghe rodeos of | the Wild West. . Joseph Pulitzer, widow of ahe her and philanthropist. is a fa figure for about six months of the year in her Villa Romaine at Deau- ville, where she has been a leading member of the American colony for about 20 vears. Mrs. Pulitzer was the second wife of the publisher and was before her marriage Miss Kate Dav of Georgetown. She was a well known social leader during her husband’s term in Congress and maintained a | lovely old home in that part of the old city, which has recently become so fashionable. A devoted lover of flow- ers, Villa Romaine has a beautiful gar- den, which figures in the social an- nals of Deauville, and invariably this venerable American takes prizes for her roses in the festivals held eve June. The villa faces the sea, hut to the south, back of a hedge of box which is almost 20 feat high. there is a long stretch of roses of every Kind, which thrives well in the rather rough hreezes, which come from the sea.

New York Social Set Enjoys Attractive Fall ; Program With Polo Cames Over, Attention Turns to Fox Hunts, Steeplechases, Foot Ball NEW YORK. October 9.—Now that the polo games are over, society is turning its attention to fox hunts, steeplechases, foot ball, racing and other sports. The huntsman’s horn and the baying of hounds were heard in Westchester a_few days ago when the members of the Westchester, Putnam and Fairfield associations as- sembled in force at Golden's Bridge. Following the hunt, there' was a breakfast given by Mr. and Mrs. John McE. Bowman of Port Chester. The guests numbered several hundred. The annual running of the Meadow Brook Hunt Cup at Jericho. Long Is- land, will take place Saturday, Novem- ber 6. This is the oldest steeplechase trophy in the United States. It is a three-and-a-half-mile run over post and rail course, open to the best 4. year-olds. It ix one of the most cov- eted trophies in the hunt world and is run off by the Meadow Brook Steeplechase Association in conjunc- tion with the United Hunts. The hunt was first run in 1883, and winners have included the most prominent portsmea in the country. Mr. Stanley Mortimer won the initial crosscountry event on Hobson's Choice. Last vear the honor went to Impartiality, owned hy Benjamin Behr of Chicago, and ridden by F. A. Bonsal ‘Winners Listed. Since the first running of the classic some of the winners have been George Work on Vivian, owned by the late 8. 8. Sands, and on his own Mar Edwin D.

Those who go up and down the earth as Satin (s described as doing in the Book of Job say that no- where may dull care be banished as at the Lido when the pajama parades are on. For taking the bathing suit parades which have sent the fame of Atlantic City circling the globe, the fair ones and thelr gallants at the Lido have inaugurated the pajama pa- rade, when the band plays merrily and the shores resemble some brilliant mosalc with the moving throng. every hue known to the dyeing fraternity is seen and all carry a vivid umbrella. Mr. Vincent Richards. president of the Buccaneers’ Club of New York City, invited its members and their friends to a brilliant fete last week, a sort of farewell to Summer, for the Ruccaneers’ home is a floating one in the North River, and when the winds begin to blow and the wames to be unpleasantly restless the beautiful barkentine, 200 feet in length. with snug quarters for almost a hundred guests, glides away to sunnier climes. the first stop is usually off the Geor gia coast. and then the craft gradually makes its way downward toward Fl ida in happier scasons than the pr.s- ent promises to be in that land of sun snine. and thence to the Bahamas and Bermudas. Except that the Bucca- neers have to reach their clubhouse in a launch. it is like all other social or- ganizations of the kind, with a strong leaning toward aquatic pursuits, in- cluding fishing. Mr. George Palmer Putnam is an ardent member of the Buccaneers, as also are Mr. Fontaine Fox, Harold K. Vanderbilt and Mar- shall Field. The Buccaneers’ Club is Gotham’s first attempt at this sort of thing, but Chicago has several. Mr. Benjamin H. Marshall set the ball rolling in his floating studio off Lake Michigan, at Lake Forest, and to which he invited large companies from Evanston as well as Lake Forest. .
