Farewell Courtesies to the Misses West
Personal Mention.
Lord Sackvills and the Misses Sackville-west
are spending the closing days Of their stay in
washington very pleasantly among their
frinnds. A number Of dinners are given each
week in their honor, every afternoon they see q
lar &c number OF callers, and the young ladies
are receiving great many handsome presents
from friends in this and other cities The story
tnat gained wide circulation last week, assert
ing that Miss Sackville-wsst had refused to
speak to Mrs. Cleveland in jewelry store on
pennsylvania avenue, is Indignantly denied by
the young lady. Miss Sackville-West was ex-
aiming some prospective purchases upon the
counter when a lady entered the shop and
stood at the opposite counter, the position OF
the two ladies being back to back. Count
Sala, who was with Miss West told her that
Mrs. Cleveland at the other side OF the
room. Miss Sackville-West turned around and
in so doing faced the lady's back and 80 did not
see her face Miss Sackville-West regretted
not having seen Mrs. Cleveland face to face as
she wished to bow TO her. At the legation
preparations are going actively forward for the
sale that is to be held in the ball room, the
scene of SO many brilliant balls and cotillons.
The minister purchased great quantities of
table glassware and china when he was in Eng
land last year. 1t was the intention of Lord
Sackville and Miss Sackville-West to entertain
q great deal this winter in a quietly elegant
way. No large ball would have been given in
January as heretofore, but a very beautiful
cotillon was to have been the event OF
Mi-Careme. Lord Sackville and the Misses
Sackville-West will be unable to accept Lord
SANKEY'S invitation to visit him at government
house in Ottawa. They will sail direct for
Paris, when they reach New York from here.
There they will visit Mr.. and Mrs. Gabriel
Salonson for few days. Then they will go to
London to be the guests of Lady Derby, and
Lord Sackville will complete some arrange
ments about the possession OF Knole. 1t has
not been decided whether they will spend the
winter at Cannes, in the south of France, or
accept an invitation from Lord and Lady Lans-
downe to visit them in India.
