THE PARIS ROTHSCHILDS.

| Baroness James de Rothschild, widow
of Baron James, the founder of the
Paris house, 'Chapelle," the chroni.
qucrur of The Sport, gives some inter-
esting details of this branch of the ia
nous family of bankers:
Baron Alphonse dc Rothschild, eld-
est son of Baroness James, resides with
his wife, who is the daughter of Baron
Lionel, Of London, in the splendid Ho-
tel Talleyrand, at the corner of the Rue
ST. Florentin and Place de Ia Conccrde,
which was the residence Of the Emper-
or Alexander in 1915 The eldest
daughter of Baron Alphonse, Mile. Ret
tina, married her cousin, Baron Albert
dc Rothschild, of Vienna; the second,
Mile. Juliette. has become Nine. Maui
rice Ephrussi. This young couple pur-
chased in the Rue de Berry the hotel oc.
cupied successfully By the beautiful
Countess Villeneuvo. Albuquerque dur
ing her short stay in Paris and by the
Duke de Ncmours before he went to
reside in the Avenue du Bots dc Bou-
lognc.
Baron Gustave, her second son, and
The baroness Anspach, live in the Ave-
nue. Marigny, in the sumptuous residence
recently rebuilt by them on ground de-
pending on the former mansion of tho
financier Debrousse. All Parisians
must remember the fairy-lkc aspect of
that vast garden. BY marvels of trans
plantation superb groves of shady trees
were improy sed in few months The
salon of the Baroness Gustavc was the
first in which Rose Caron was heard.
Her eldest daughter MARIE Mr. Lam
Lert, who represents the house of
Rothschilds in Brussels, but the young
couple pass a great part of the year in
Paris. Her younger daughter, Mile.
Aline de Rothschid, came out in So
cicty last year, and was remarked for
her gaace and beauty.
The third son of the Baroness James,
Baron Edmond, who married one of
his cousins, purchased three years back
the celebrated Hotel Pontalba, the gar
den of which, looking on the Avenue
Gabriel, is one of the finest in Paris.
The house that formerly stood in the
grounds was lcvelcd to the ground, and
in its place has been raised splendid
edificc, in which have been assembled
artistic treasures and all the refine
ments of modern comforts. Only a
few intimate friends have yet penetrat-
ed into the interior, and the Inaugural
ton was TO have taken place in the
coming season. But alas!
Baroness Nathaniel, daughter of
Baron James, possesses in the Fau-
bourg St. Honorc, at few steps from
the residence of her brother, the mag
niiicent hotel adjoining that occupied
so long by the MARKETABLE Suchet,
Duchess dAlbufcra, and which has
been entirely rebuilt by the present
owner. Count Pillet-Will. The Baro-
ness Nathaniel. who is one of our most
talented aquarellsts lives there in al
most absolute retirement with her son,
Baron Arthur, whose steam yacht Eros
is one of the finest vessels of the kind
afloat. She passes a part of the year
on her domain of the abbey of Vaux-
dc-Ccrnay. Her daughtcr-in-law, the
Baroness James Edouard, has scarcely
left her residence in the Avenue de
Fricdland since the death of her hus-
band.
The Baroness Solomon, widow of the
fourth son of the Baroness James. is
proprietor of the vast mansion in the
Rue Berrycr, which formerly belonged
10 the financicr Beaujon. Her only
daughter. Mile. Helene. resembles her
for her grace and charity.
Alone of all the Rothscilds in Paris
Baron Adolphe. who belongs TO the Ma
polcon branch, is not defendant of
the Baroness James. His residedce ia
the Rue Monceau is. therefore. the only
one that may be open to society next
season. Gaiigndnrs Messenger.
