That was an awful drubbing the four Tobin boys got the other day at the Crossways polo game, but it afforded the victors, Peter D. Martin, Frank Carolan, ‘Walter S. Hobart and John Lawson, ma- terial for song and story ever since. Itis said that Peter Martin is perpetuating the dramatic “lickin'” in a touching sonnet. s s ne The engagement of pretty Marie Feiling to Maleolm A. Fraser of London, and her sudden departure to wed him, caused something of a stir in Bohemia, where the brilliant young woman was greatly acmired. Xavier Martinez has just finished a most interesting portrait of her, revealing the subtlety of her beauty and person- | ality. - Py T Tomorrow night the opera! And such an array of ‘“tararas,” dog collars, sun- bursts and other unclassified impedimenta as will be flashed forth will give an elec- tric shock to- the unprepared. The real things? Occasionally! Mrs. Frank Carolan, Mrs. James Flood, Mrs. Jack Casserly, Mrs. Peter Mar- tin, and Mrs. M. H. de Young, are among the women who haven't yet come to the discretionary point of wearing duplicate jewels, but there are those who will not assume the résponsibility of wear- ing the real tnings—a trick long ago re- sorted to in New York. And besides, the arrangement has other advantages. Sup- pose one got hit hard at bridge! Anent the opera, the shopkeepers assert that there has never been such lavish preparation for a season as for this—and the jewelers confirm the statement. And the opening date is so beautifully auspicious—Easter Monday, when every frock and wrap is fresh, and the wear and tear of the winter worn away with the lull of Lent. A stupendous picture will greet the Queen of Sheha tomorrow night—almost Metropolitanese. And the alr, the at- mosphere of the opera is half of it. . s . The wedding of Mrs. Anita Waldenberg of Los Angeles and John E. de Ruyter of this city will take place quietly tomorrow in the bride’s apartments at the La- ette.

PR The bazaar given at the California Club yesterday in behalf of the Juvenile Court fund was @ joy to behold—it spelled suc-. cess, and it spelled a humane interest in the lives of little tykes whose lives have not been cast in pleasant places. These uniucky little wights who made bad choices in the selection of grandparents have at least “hit it” once, in having the friendship of a lot of good women, who are trying to lead them into “the |- right paths—and they Ww! Good and earnest effort never goes for naught. Among the women who labored early and late for the success of the bazaar e a week or two, where they will travel leisurely for six months, thence return- ing to California. . e e Mrs. ‘Arthur B. Kerwin, wife of Captain Kerwin, stationed at the Presidio. Monte- rey, has recently been on a visit to her parents, Brigadier General and Mrs. Gi- rard, at the Occidental. Both Mrs. Kerwin and her sister, Mrs. Bush, also wedded in the army, are two of the handsomest women in the ser- vice—which, as I have ofter, remarked, ien’'t a very vast compliment. But the Girard girls are both beautles, and no mistake; and both of totally different types. Mrs. Girard, herself a very handsome woman, has just returned from a trip around the world. * e e A bride of less than a week is Mrs. R. E.

ST. PETERSBURG, April 14.—Second Secretary Bliss of the American Em- bassy has for a pet a tiny bear. He shot .the mother and brought back the cub, which, although only a few weeks old, is remarkably strong and seventy pounds. Every one is -::#: ing what he is going to do with it when it attains years of discretion. Bear shooting is not a particularly exciting sport at this time of year, as the beasts have to be waked up and poked out of their dens before they sleepily face the | guns. Indeed, there is less mm-ufl no more risk in killing one in butchering an ox. BERLIN, April 14.—The Emperor ‘dined with the United States Embassa-
