R he engagement of Miss Maude E. daughter of Willlam Cluff, and ge Downey leaked out before the family wished it to become known. But it is ever thus with secrets that are kept too long. Within two or three weeks, when society gets back to town, Miss 7uft will give a luncheon and announce *r—_— the engagement with due formality, af- ter which much entertaining for the charming bride-elect s sure to follow. The time of the wedding is not set, but will probably take place in November at the Palace Hotel. Miss Cluff has but recently returned from an extended European trip with her parents and sister, Miss Mabel Cluff. The fortunate man, Mr. Downey, is & very popular business man and junior partner in the firm of Willlam Cluff & Co. in this city. B e i A large number of Americans in Lon. don have been thrown into moutning by the sudden death of Mrs. Wadsworth Ritchle. Mrs. Ritchie’s last fliness was brought on by a cold caught at the much- described fancy dress ball given recently by her mother-in-law, Mrs. Adalr. Craig ‘Wadsworth of the American embasgy, cousin to Mr. Ritchie, is one of those in mourning, and so is Lady Barrymore. Mrs. Ritchie was well known in Boston, New York and Washington, where she and all the Wadsworth connection were intimates of the Roosevelts. e The hit of the tournament was made by Dr. ,Btapler's two French bables—aged one and two—who appeared at the races in regulation leather suits and caps, auto- mobile goggles to keep out the dust and veils to keep out neuralgia. Immediately at the sight of these minjature automo- bilists & shriek of delight went up from the crowd, whereupon the twain threw back their masks and made acknowledg- ment of the ovation in a manner too funny for words. .8 > Miss Edith Berry and her mother have prolonged their stay abroad and have about given up the idea of returning to San Francisco for the winter owing to the continued 11l health of Miss Berry. This will be quite a disappointment to the young set, as Miss Berry went out in- formally last year and was as enthusias- FX% LB IV 2 / 4 = & TAUGHLA o )izx'r;.{ P HOYS .. =3} tic as she was popular at the hops. She would have been one of the gayest of debutantes. . s e Mrs. Brugulere and her two sons, Louls and Emile, are still at Newport in thelr ‘“‘cottage”’—a spacfous structure of twen- ty-eight rooms—which, I believe, they own. This little family is in the midst of the soclal whirl, entertaining and be- ing entertained in turn. Louis Bruguiere was guest of honor at a dinner given by Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish a few days ago. TS Mrs. George F. Shiels has been giving a series of delightful little dinners at Hotel del Monte, where she is. stopping with her husband, Dr. Shiels. Mrs. Shiels s a charming hostess and should she reside in San Francisco per- manently Is certain to become a soclety leader. Mrs. Shiels is always beautifully gowned and even wears her shirt waist suits with a style quite distinctive. . T30 The very latest of riding habits has been introduced by Miss Vesta Shortridge and it is a facsimile of the newest ones worn in New York and Newport. The lcng coat of brown cloth extends to the knees and quite conceals the trim little knickerbockers underneath. The riding boots, of rich brown leather, reach to the knees, and a piquant three-cornered hat completes the costume. ’ s se Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sullivan (nee Ivan- covich) are spending the summer in town, where they are being informally enter- tained by their friends of the young set, in which they are extremely popular. Mrs. Sullivan will not hold her post-nuptial re- ceptions for a month or two yet, but when more of her friends return from their summer outings cards will probably be sent out. i « s . Miss Lililan Featherston has returnea from a year's visit to the Southern and Eastern States, most of the time having been spent in Washington, D. C., and New York. The month of July was passed in the Catskills. She will presently join her sister, Mrs. J. V. Kimball, at Pacific Grove, where she will remaln until Sep- tember 10. . e e Miss Gertrude and Miss Margaret Hyde- Smith will be charming additions to next winter's list of debutantes. Both are bright and interesting girls who have been educated in Paris. Miss Gertrude made her debut in Washington last win- ter under the chaperonage of her dunt, Mrs. Henley Smith. The Misses Hyde- :mllh Wwill return from abroad in Novem- er. & Meanwhile Miss Shortridge - and her mother are spending the summer days Pleasantly at Monterey. Miss Shortridge is an excellent equestrienne and has a pony that goes like the wind. She would probably have entered him for the races at Del Monte recently, but in the absence of her flance was not sufficiently inter- ested. L Miss Sarah Drum showed more indiffer- ence to the automobile movement than was expected, as she owns a beautiful lit-, tle electric runabout and enjoys the dis- tinction of being the first woman chauf- feur on the coast. She did not enter her machine, however, nor did she stay for the races. S e Miss Norma Castle, who is now in Paris with her father, is expected to return in the autumn, when she will be numbered among the debutantes. Miss Castle is of the Titian type of beauty, having auburn hair and a delicate skin. She will be cer- tain of a successful winter, as she alteady has many strong friends in soclety. o e Marshall Fleld of Chicago is in London, stopping at the Carlton, en route to Leamington to visit his daughter, Mrs. Arthur e, before going to the Conti- . ver. - his daughter, Alileen.

It is to open in Chicago and proceed to Philadelphia and New York afterward. R SR Mr. and Mrs. Ansel M.

These candidates will be initiated at the next meeting of the council. Volunteer Council had several candi- dates for initiation at {ts meeting August 5. There was a good attendance and the membership Is enthusiastic for the ad- vancement of the order. Reports received by Supreme Secretary G. E. Terry show a noticeable increase n membership. Supreme Councilor Tugwell visited Han- ford recently and attended a session of King Council, which had sixteen candi- dates to initiate. This council, less than a month old, already has fifty names on its membership roll. A new council will soon be instituted in Alameda County. During the past thirty days the council in Berkeley initiated twenty candidates and it has still thirty petitions to act upon. Golden Gate Council had an interesting basket party in its hall In Odd Fellows’ building August 14 Golden State Council of Oakland at its last held meeting initlated a number of strangers. Last week Urfjversity Council of Berke- ley initiated 3 class of twenty-five appli- cants for membership. The council in Alameda reports initia- tions at every meeting. Supreme Secretary Terry reports hav- ing information from the State of Oregon during the past week that shows that the councils in that State are very much alive. ! National Union. URING the early part of August Mission Council of the Natlonal Union was visited-by W. K. Whee- lock. chairman of the joint committee of the Cabinet, on reception of President Jef- fries of the Senate. He dellvered an ad- dress on the subject of the reception and urged the presentation of a large class of strangers for initiation. His remarks were supplemented by those of Merton C.

During the evening an intermissio was declared and a collation served. On August 6 there was a night with M} Capitan Council in Native Sons’ building. It was El Capitan’s night under the su- pervision of a committee of which Prince Vincent and “Pop” Wilson were the ac- tive members. There was a continucuf performance by a number of individuals who are all artists in their way and there was not a dull number during the entire evening. There were vocal selec- tions, sketches by specialty artists, mon- ologues, wrestling bouts, sparring exhibl- tions and all kinds of music and a col- lation such as the chef of El Capitan only knows how to prepare. It was a glorious night and all had a most enjoyable time until the janitor announced that it was time to “shut down.” Those who made the evening merry were M;u!; Pukrd(y, 01 .
