WOMEN OF THE OLD TIMES AND THE WOMEN OF TO-DAY | *Ought to Improve Manners of the Young People Nowadays” —“American Girls Should Al- ways Be Americans.” A bundle of old, faded, yellow letters! An antique chest around which an ey- Saree fragrance of orris and san- lalwood still lingers! A rare old fan of Jace with broken and yellow tvory Blicks—all these fragile suggestions of & bygone splendor came to mind when talking with a cameo-faced little Indy who Is known in many lands as the Baroness von Gluemer, the bride of the Diamond Wedding, the glory of which has been rung these fortyeflve years Over in West Ninth street—a quiet, Old-fashioned section in the heurt of the Bustling town—stands the suiel Grit- fou,}an unobtrusive ittle estab! shment pear Ing a distinctively to tavor uch appreciated by person rious Brtistic tenfenct There|the Baroness and her iv banion, Viana, « much-travetled bull Pup of high degree, have found refuge. ‘There, In a sunshiny little room high up under the eaves, with old-time grace @nd hospitality on the part of. the Baroness and a more conservative Greeting frem the bull-pup, a reporter from The Evening World was welcomed to-day by the twain and made the will- ing recipient of much Interesting Infor- Matton conceruing places, persons and| things.

The bride at the time was con- siderés the most beautiful woman in New York. She was the daughter of Capt. Washington Alen Bartlett, U. BA. Don Esteban, who was worth about 63,000,000, an enormous fortune in those days, presented his bride with wedding presents worth more than $100,000, and tn addition settled upon her plant in Cuba and a fine manston In teenth street, New York. ‘The newly wedded couple went to Cuba, but De Oviedo did not live long. oon after his widow's marriage to the Baron von Gluemer, an Austrian in the} } Mexican army, her fortune began to dwindle, large portions of the Inherit- ance having been seized by claimanta| in Cuba.
