8 SO CIETY. THE SUNDAY STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C. SEPTEMBER ;l' ales of Well In SocifaAlrade Official Life President Machado Regarded as Instrumental in Having‘ Cuba's Leflidafive Building Fashioned to Resemble United States Capitol. R¥-MARGARET B. DOWNT President G Machado of Cuban Republic, who was the gu his friend and colleague. Ambas Don Orestes Ferrara, in May, 1927 will be remembered, was an inter observer of public buildings and the do the t of general plan of this comparatively new and beautifully planned National Capi- tal pitol which was so obviously designed m Dr. William Thornton’s drawings and which now rises in majestic_form oppasite the lovely little Parque Isabel la Catolica, which is an extension of the historic Prado. To an architec- turally trained eye. the Cuban legisla- tive house may differ from the vast pile on Capitol Hill of this Federal city, but to the passerby it is a replica and likewise it is situated on & vast open space all concreted and illuminated by night by myriads of electric lights placed on huge and ornate bronze pedestals. For all the world it seems to be the same halls of legislature where it fronts East Capitol street edging into Penn- sylvania and Maryland avenues. The Cuban architects, however, made but two full staries of their masterpiece, ex- the rounded wings which ser ate and House as in the older struc- re where some half windows have been placed In storage rooms. The lofty dome resembles that of St. Paul's in London. being higher and less wide than that of the United States Capitol Some of the minor details which have resulted from President Machado's in- gpection of Dr. Thornton's work make the Cuban Capitol more correct, accord- ing to the classic ideals. There are no terraces and the stately flight of steps cept on the west side down to Pennsylvania avenue are missing. The new Secretary of the Interior, Mr Roy Owen West, is the third native limois to be chosen for this particu v, his successors having been Judge H. Browning, who was appointed irew Johnson in 1866, and Presi second m Howard Taft's of the Interior ssor 10 i A Ballinger of shington State, Walter J. Fisher, and, e Mr. West, a citizen of Chicago. By a coincidence, all three of the Illinois men who have become Secretaries of the Interior have filled only part terms Judge Browning succeeded James Har- lan of Iowa, who went into the Senate. It was the daughter of this statesman— nd and confidante of President neoln—who married Robert Todd Lin- coln and who has survived him. Mrs. Robert T. Lincoln was Mary Harlan and ® belle of Washington during her fa- ther's service in the Johnson cabinet and later in the Senate. She resides in the beautiful old mansion on Thirtieth gtreet, Georgetown, which her husband had chased and refitted some 10 years previous to his death. Mr. Fisher gerved two vears in the last half of President Taft's administration and Mr. West had but nine months’ certain in- cumbency when he became Dr. Work’s successot. President Zachary Taylor appointed the first Secretary of the Interior, Thomas Ewing of Ohio, in 1849. * ¥ ox % Mr. Arthur Curtiss James, who has Just obtained from the Lighthouse Board title to a neck of land stretching out of Newport Harbor and known for 8 century past as Lime Rock, acted in | half of the Narrangansett Bay Regatta | Club, which will take over this hallowed | ground as a_headquarters and general rendezvous. The Treasury Department, which. because of the unceasing efforts of the aquatic organization at Nar- ragansett, changed the name of the lighthouse, which for nearly a cen- tury has safeguarded the craft making to the harbor, from Lime Rock to Ida | Lewis Light,” of course, keeps the small area on which the beacon has been built. Ida/ Lewis, one of the romantic figures in the long records of the Lighthouse Board, was a heroine | who saved lives by the score. on three occasions by rowing out herself and | drawing drowning persons from the surf and making the shore safely. No more heroic annals are to be found in | the chronicles ef this division of coast guarding than those which relate to | this intrepid woman. As a child she lived in the oid lighthouse with her father. who was the keeper, and her first rescue came when she was in her early teens. On her father's death she succeeded to the coveted position as keeper of the light until her death at an advanced age, which took place in 1912. But romance is rapidly passing from the world and the Ida Lewis Light is | now fed electrically and requires no #pecial keeper. However, her memory 1= green in every inch about the point of land which will soon be the busy scene of the vachting club’s activities. * * % % Queen Mary of Britain, who it would #ppear has become reconciled to the bachelorhood of her eldest son, has | taken over the management of the once famous gardens about Marlborough House, now the London home of the Prince of Wales, and has been restor- ing the ancient beauty of the place for which it was noted under its late occupant, Queen Alexandra. As this lamented royal lady always spent the entire Spring and early Summer in | London. her gardens were planted prin- cipally in rare Spring bulbs and those flowers which reach perfection before June is over. The Prince of Wales, who does not add floriculture to his many accomplishments, did not con- sider the gardens in his pians to refit #nd renovate the old palace. The Lon- don public has greatly missed the beau- tiful display of hyacinths, tulips and Jonquils which appeared in March in 1he border and beds near the st and they lamented that these wonderful eolor effects, planned by King Edward when he was Prince of Wales, hav been allowed to pass. So Queen Mary ordered & large consignment of the est and richest of Dulch bulbs and spot will be restored and, as far possible, according to the old schem King Edward delighted in bright flowers and he never made a tour of the Riviera or the Pyrenees country with- out sending 1o the Marlborough House garden some novel flower which caught by fancy.

The War| Cry is the son of the great stallion Martial, one of a number which the French government lends gratis to small breeders in order that the best strain of French and Arab horses may be per- petuated on the race track. It is po: sible to buy some of these horses out- right, if such is desired. Lord Stan- ley, who has been with his father, Earl Derby, whose family name has been given to Great Britain's most cele- brated sporting event, is a champion of the new system of taxation which is stirring_all _England to the depths. When Mr. Winston Churchill, minister of the exchequer, levied a tax on the racing bet, the state, is was alleged. had given recognition to the legality of bet- | ting on horse races and this new sys- tem is to fasten the tax so firmlv o: all who make wagers that of | the contribution to the national treas- ury will be impossible. * x Mr. and Mrs recently purchi house of the C border of Scotland fore her marriage to this last heir of the illustrious Scotch family, Miss Flourney Hopkins of Atlanta, Ga. and she was so well dowered that the pur- chase of the hall from an Edinburg merchant who had owned it for half a century was possible.

The title has been ex- | tinet for nearly two hundred years, but the owner of the manor house is about to take up the matter with the Heralds | College. He descends from a_cadet line, for years established in Canada and New York, and he has no claim- ants against him for the honor of writ- ing “Sir” before his name, while there is no_patrimony except what Mr. Gil- | bert Eliot has earned himself and the | handsome dower of his wife.

N | Mrs. William Willoughby Sharp, fre- | quently a Winter visitor to Washing- | ton, is occupying her country homs Stonewall, at_the mouth of the ravine | which forms the Natural Bridge of Vir- gina. Miss Elizabeth Sharp, her daugh- | ter, spent part of her debut year in| the Capital and has since then become a seasoned globe-trotter. She studied for two years in. Lady Margaret Hall, | in Oxford, and last June received an | A. B. degree. During her course in the English_University, Miss Sharp became engaged to Mr. Neal Lewin of London, | and he had planned to come to this country for the wedding in October. ! But he was hastily sent to India by the colonial ministry, in which he is employed, and without time to have his bride to join him for the wedding in London. Mrs. Sharp and her daugh- ter will therefore journey to Simla and, as that jaunt requires some 10 weeks, if good connections are made, they intend to start the first week in September. Their villa near the Natural Bridge is perched on a lofty eminence and sur- rounded by giant trees, and it had been | Mrs. Sharp’s intention to have the mar- | rlage take place in mid-October, when | the foliage takes on the vivid Autumn hues. * k% Prof. Charles E.

His age has prevented h participation in_the perilous adven- tures of the Alpinists seeking new routes in the Swiss and Austrian chains but he set up his tent near Lake Loulse in late June and has journeyed up the mighty pass between Mount Victoria and Mount Lefroy and in August he pushed on to Abbots Pass. Prof. Fay takes things easily, and like the snail he covers his ground by a few hundred feet each day. TWenNLy-seven years ago he was the very first to climb over the marvelous peaks which add such pleas ure to a visit to Banfl and Lake Loul and. few Summers have passed sin that he has not visited these delectable to the South America and the terrible ranges | near the voleanoes of Mexico.

Lavish decorations of the vividly hued flowers which border the foot of the stone wall inclosing the front lawn were used. Contract bridge was played and at 5 o'clock a collation was served. after which the games were continued for another hour.
