The reports concerning William Fl. Van
derbilt and his unlucky son, William K, are
no doubt exaggerated, but it is generally
believed that the latter was severely VIC
timized by a clique of old spectators who
knew how to manipulate beginner.
William X. keeps his troubles as secret as
possible, but report says his splendid palace
is for sale. William tried all his power to
keep his sons from specializing, but these
hot-headed young fellows think they know
every thing, and hence fall an easy prey to
Wall-street sharperS. This is the way
Stedman was ruined. His son was manip-
ulated so slyly that all was lost before the
father had any idea of danger Gould, like
Vanderbilt, wants to keep his son from
specializing, and hence keeps him busy as
an assistant, with Conner and Morosini to
watch him. George Gould at present only
has what his father allows him, and, there
fore, is not in condition to put up mar
gin. The young Vanderbilts, however.
each had an immense inheritance from their
grandfather, and this became misfortune
rather than benefit.

Mr.. and Mrs. William Waldorf Astor will
return to New York in few weeks, and
great preparations. are being made at the
Astor mansions for their arrival. For four
years they have been in Europe most of the
time at Rome, where Mr.. Astor has been
United States minister. Upon their return
they will take up their residence in New
port, where they have rented one of the
ltlltSl Wins duu cNpttt W tultIldil 10y dIIl
during the summer months.
Before going to Newport they will visit
Mr. and Mrs. John Jacob Astor at their
Fifth avenue mansion, and several dinner
parties in honor of their arrival will be given
by different members of the family.
Mrs. Willie Waldorf as she is called
to distinguish her from the other Mrs. As
tors, has ordered many exquisite
NEW PARTISAN DRESSES,
and these she will bring with her, as well
rs a retinue of Italian servants, to whom
she is greatly attached.
She has been the bright particular star of
the American colony at Rome during her
residence there, and has been greatly adj
mired in court circles. Her costumes, en-
tertainments and frank American manners
have been copied by titled ladies of the
court, and it is said that the beautiful Queen
Marguerite of Italy considered her the eighth
wonder of the world.
Mrs. Astor is real American beauty,
with faultleSS figure. elear-cut features
and perfect taste in dress. She has been
married about six years and was Miss
Paul of Philadelphia, her family being one
of the most wealthy and prominent in the
Quaker city. When young Mr.. AstOr went
to Philadelphia for wife the young ladies
in his own city were quite grieyed. The
wedding was a notable affair. a special
train conveying the New York guests to and
from Philadelphia
-
The news of the marriage of Miss Rose
Coghlan. the famous actress. To Mr.. c. J.
Edgerly of Boston. was great surprise
Mr. Edgerly comes of an admirable Eastern
family. his father being man of high
standing. both socially and in business, and
the groom himself is a broad shouldered.
hearty and handsome man, whose position
at the bar is already well assured. That he
will take his wife from the stage is toler-
able certainty, though the event. | hope. is
as yet somewhat distant. Miss Coghlan's
success in .''0ur joan has been very pro-
nounced and she win take it upon the road
next season and star. But eventually. there
seems every reason 10 believe. she viii set
tie down in Boston as Mrs Edgerly. She
is n distinguished actress. and it IS pleasant
to reflect that during her long career as
leading lady of the foremost theater of
America her name has not been furnished
by the scandals which are usually so rife in
theatrical circles about people of prumin-
ence in the profession
