THE WEDDING AGAIN DELAYED.
There is another delay in the Carroll-Ker-
gorlay wedding, which will not take place
until after New Year. Count Jean, the
bridegroom-elcct has sent in his resignation
as an officer in a dIagoon regiment stationed
at Joigny. He hates the military profession.
In fact, that dislike runs in the family, for
his brother who married recently Pierre
Donon's handsome sister, had the same an
tpathy for being son of Mars.
Count Jean Is fond Of horses, and Is
continually In the saddle. He is very
tall and well built, with blue eyes. fair hair
and very tawny mustache. Fossense is
his name, Kergorlay being domain in the
department OF the Disc, where he was
brought up. lie studied for his baccalaureate,
was plucked and Immediately enlisted in
chasseur regiment and rose to the grade of
Sergeant Marechai Des LogIs. He then was
admitted to the cavalry school at Tau
mer and In due time became an officer in
dragoon regiment, In which he was one of
the handsomest ornaments.
TWO FINE TOILETS.
None OF the pieces brought out this week
have been successes, and even the revival of
LA Panach' at the Gymnase was only
saved from being q failure by the first rate
acting OF Roblet and the Rubens. Like the
beauty of Nine Marie Magnier, whose dress
in the second set is worth recording. 1t is a
short walking dress of steel-blne vcloutine
with an overpetticoat of gold and steel
embroidery, with little golden balls
sprnkled over it. The coasage is of velontine
with broad bias band set in under the arms
and fastening at the waist In front after de-
scribing half circle Louis XIII collar of
gold and steel embroidery coming down in
points over the back, shoulders and front of
the dress. A velvet toque, sprinkled with
steel, was worn with the costume, having
upon the left side just above the brim a gray
and white quilt and couple of torsades-one
OF electric blue plush the other of steel velon-
tine, matching the skirt and forming high
outstanding bows. Long biscuit de seude
gloves, steel silk stockings and satin shoes Of
the same tint, embroidered with gold and
steel, completed the ensemble.
