20 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 24, 1896. SOCIETY 15 OFF 10 PASTURES NEW. Paris Claims a Large Share of Pleasure Seekers. A Large Number of Wanderers Return for a Summer at Home. All the Summer Resorts, North and South, Equally in Favor This Season. The note of departure has been sounded. That tantalizing question, “Where shall we go for the summer?'’ has been satis- factorily decided and all the annoying preliminaries successfully overcome. Even that all-absorbing topic, the sum- mer wardrobe, has been happily disposed of, and the only possible thing left that may for a moment cloud the serene social brow is the problem of packing. But the women of to-day have reduced that vexing question, how to get two large trunkfuls into one medium-sized trunk, to a science almost, so that there is reali nothing left to worry those bent upox departure. At all the fashionable resorts at the sea- side, and even the ranch and farm where the summer boarder is at once a wonder and delight, everything is being put in readiness for the reception of the guests. Dances, hops and picnics are already arranged for. The tennis courts are in readiness, and from every tree that can safely bear the weight hangs a pretty in- viting “comfy”-looking hammock. To the credit of the various suburban hotels be it said that the grown up ele- ment is not alone looked after. The wvast importance of the comfort and enjoy- ment of the coming generation is realized, and the season holds many surprises for the belles and beaux of the future. ‘While it cannot be said that the sum- mer exodus has in reality begun, enough of the best people have already left town to make their absence feit. The departures for Europe are unusually numerous, and it would seem as though everybody was sure to meet this summer on the Continent. Mr. and Mrs. George A. Pope and Miss Carrie Taylor have already arrived in Paris. Mr. and Mrs. Edward J. McCutcheon are preparing to leave next month, ex- pecting to join Mr. and Mrs. Schmiedell (nee McCutcheon)in Paris.

Mrs. Green, accompanied by her sister, Miss Julia Crocker, has arrived in New York on her way to Europe. They ex- pect to be absent about six months, and will spend much of their time in Parisand London. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Payot are in the gay French capital and enjoyirg every ‘moment of their stay.

The past week has been rather slow and quiet, but not altogether uninterest- ing. We have had a charming weddiug and several delightful luncheons and din- ners. There was the usual weekly engage- ment—that of Walter Newhall and Mrs. Ainsworth of Los Angeles—which proved a very great surprise to the many friends of the interested parties. The Denicke-Leuschner wedding was a most deligutful affair and was attended by 200 invited guests. The handsomest event of the week was undoubteily the Wilson luncheon for Mrs. Whitelaw Reid. On Thursday evening Winfield Jones gave a charming dinner for Mr. and Mrs, Elliott McAllister, and on Tuesday after- noon Miss Catherwood gave a delightful ittle tea at the residence of her mother, Mrs. Darling, at the Presidio. It wasan army and navy affair and a perfect suc- cess, like all the entertainments at which Miss Catherwood presides. p Friday morning Miss Catherwood was serenaded by the Presidio band by courtesy of General Graham, and three of Major Darling’s favorite musical compositions played asa compliment to the young lady’s host. The wedding of Miss Jennie Cheesman and Lieutenant Shoemaker of the navy is announced for June 2. It isto be a very quiet affair, none but the immediate fam- ily being present. That was a most delightful affair, the picnic given by the young ladies of the “Kitchen Garden” to their charges with whom they labor so faithfully during the year. The ladies have 150 little ones in their careand they devote themselves to their | education, not forgetiing the practical keeping.

The day was nearly perfect for a sail and an impromptu race &t the start added | much to the pleasure of the trip. Some of the | members, who are musically inclined, brought their instruments with them and the sweet tones of banjo, mandolin and guitar mingling with the sound of splashing waters ,.vduced a very pretty effect. Songs with a salty flavor were sung and stories of old ocean found great favor with the ladies, the club's stock of reminfscences be- coming exhausted long before the return for home had commenced. An hour was pleas- antly spent at Caiifornia City, where the party landed. Here several lirge hampers were produced and the cravings of the inner | man appessed with an excellentlunch.

Arriving at the residence the festivi- ties were opened by a serenade that soon brought the host to the door to welcome his unexpected guests. The surprise proved a success in every way, and it was gratifying to note the play of emotions that passed in rapid succession across the countenances ot the re- cipients. Much merriment was occasioned by a mar- riage ceremony performed by Lientenant E. F. Moenning of the Independent Rifles immedi- ately followed by a grand marcn to the supper- table upon which was displayed all of the del- icacies of the season.
