His idea is to get Oh agreeable personal terms
with both exhibitors and the ordin$ry Partisan
and provincial visitors. Mr. and MIS-
Whteaw Reid, Colonel and Mrs. John
Hay, Consul Ratliborn, Miss Decca and
Mr.. and Mrs. John Monroe were among the
American guests of Lord and Lady Lytt0n. The

Oppenheim hearing this and herself liking Miss

She wore little bonnet, just large enough to
support tuft of soft gray marabout feathers and
had "a pearl necklace of several rows clasplng her
neck outside the straight collar of her dress. This
mode of wearing jewels Is one that the Princess
of Wales brought in young, and still keeps in
