Shaw %gave a small informal tea on Wednesday at her home, Gough street, where she dispensed charming hospitality to a pleasant party of friends. Mrs. Shaw is a pretty young matron of the blonde type. She is very popular in her set and will be greatly missed when she goes East to live, which will be in Auvgust. Mrs. Shaw will leave in the very near future for the Yosemite, after which she will visit Tahoe before going east- ward PR Miss Martha Wilson of Chicago has re- a few days last portunity to 1 nize her.

Robinson and their voungest daughter, Kathryn, are having a delightful time at ‘the Jarboe ranech, near Santa Crvz. They made. a” flying trip to this city several days ago, but returned to the mountains, where they ex- pect to remain for some time. s e e ¥ ederick Innes and his charming wife, formerly Miss lda Robinson, are still in town, but expect to leave for the country within a fortnight. R e Mr. and Mrs. Walter Martin and Mr. and Mrs. Downey Harvey are doing the Yosemite. s e Walter Magee and Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson, the naval hero, caused considerable alarm among their friends at the hotel in the Yosemite Valley by making -a dangerous mountain - as cent. Had the ~ambitious climbers started sufficiently early in the morning to complete the trip by daylight it would have seemed less hazardous, but there was considerable delay in getting off and to return before dark was quite out of the question. When one of the party returned to the hotel, saying he valued his life too much to proceed with the others, the tourists began to feel some anxiety for the safety of the climbers. well. oy e A voung woman popular in society for her repartee amused her friends .on a recent trip to the Yosemite by comment- ing with considerable temerity upon the formidable facial expression which Cap- tain Hgl n continually wears. She could not imagine, she aid, that any girl would make advances to a man whose manner was so forbidding. A facetious club man asked her if she really meant to abandon the idea of being kissed, to which the young American replied saucily “I am not obliged to depend upon Mr. Hobson for my kisses.” ., e Jack Wilson has been a host at some enjoyable affairs during hi y in the Yosemite, as has also James D. Phelan. Mr. Phelan gave an informal dance at the hotel one evening last week, at which San Francisco socicty was well rcpre- sented. e s e Mrs. James Dunphy goes about town looking extremely well in a chic waist suit of summer silk and a tailor hat. She is a demi-blonde with a Ineasing face and very pretty figure. One looks upon:Mrs. Dunphy with more than passing interest, as it was-generally sup- posed that *“Jimmy Dunphy” would never ma in fact, he is quoted as ing so himself; but he finally met one to whose charms he succumbed. . s e Miss Ja. covi jueline Moore has entirely re- d from her recent automobile ac- cident. Her escape from death seems lit- tle short of miraculous, as the big ma- chine capsized” with considerable force. St wicn Mrs. Hugh Tevis' recent candidate for matrimony, according to rumor, is James Randglph Walker, who has been follow- ing her about religiously. Ernest Wiltsee is another whese attentions are remarked. Miss Roma Paxton, daughter of Mrs. Beesle Paxton, hag a very bright future before her. ‘When she finished several days ago at Mrs. Grayden's school at Berkelay this “sweet girl'grad” gave al- most the entire programme with a versa- tility which is unusual. She sang sweetly, gave a violin selection, read her essay and took part in her play, showimng marked talent in more than one direction. The Paxtons have taken a flat on Pacific ave- nue and will probably stay In town.

Therefore many of Mrs. Lyon's friends will know her private opinion of them when they read the book and whether they continue on speaking terms remains to be seen, In generalizing, Mrs. Lyon says: “Did you ever stop to consider the pit- iable condition of a successful, hard- working business man with a society wife Men who are almost strangers to their wives' visiting lists—who are only cxpected- to provide the wherewithal to pay for magnificent entertainments, but are often made to feel like intruders if they occasionally summon up courage to be present at thelr wiv fashionable functions.” “Married women and men of society nowadays are certainly in a bad way. The men are mostly all tired of their wives and the wives are tired of thelr husbands.” “There are many strong characters who can pick out of tne ruins of their love life a sufficient foundation on which to build a new edifice of peace and serenity.” $ro e Count Telfener, brother-in-law of Mrs. Mackay, met with an automobile accident near Rome a few days ago.
