NJ IS. KATE CHASE.
Once Famous Beauty and Still a
Handsome Woman.


Handsome Woman.
From the Ne,c York Graphic
Some days ago an afternoon reception was
given by the wife and daughter of A. b.
Mulet, formerly supervising architect of
the treasury. Among the ladies receiving
with the hostess was Mrs. Kate Chase. as
she now calls herself, the once famous and
always beautiful Kitty Chase. 1t was the
first time she had appeared at any social
gathering in Washington for many wears
and this woman. who fifteen years ago ruled
Washington society as it never was ruled
before or since, was not personally known
TO one-fourth of the guests present. Beside
her stood her daughter Ethe--a slim. indef-
mite kind of girl, possibly to be pretty. but
never to he rs handsome as her mother
As for Mrs. Kate Chase, her beauty is of
that noble sort that age cannot wither nor
custom stale Besides, she is woman who
has passed through great storms without
letting them agitate her unduy. She is
now nearly - years old, but she looks tan
years younger She has lost the first brill
fancy Of youthful complexion, but she can't
help being superb and distinguished. In the
day of her power she was intensely feared
and admired, but never inspired or seem
20 try TO inspire affection, so that the ami
mostly she awakened on the part of those
who saw her for the first time IN many
years assisting at party was of a critical
kind. No doubt this suited her quite as
well, because pity is something she always
disdained.
She is no longer rich and inherits Chief
Justice Chases financial liabilities in
market degree. The sum of what she has
now is the small competence left her by her
father, who lived and died poor man.
Whatever claim she had upon Canonchet
Is worth nothing now, and this woman,
who could order twenty-five gowns with
all accessories from Paris not many years
ago and repeat the order whenever she felt
like II, appeared the other day in the
simplest kind Of black costume. But il
was nevertheless elegant and appropriate,
because II couldn't be anything else with
Kitty Chase as its wearcr. She always had
a perfect genius for clothes and her striking
beauty gained effect from the style in
which she dressed.
