WASHINGTON. June 9.-washington
:, as hot as Tophet Hall of the mem
hers of congress are in flannel shirts, and
such of the ladies as still remain at Their
homes here wear the lightest of sum ner
dresses. The majority of our leading
vomen have left for their country homes
mr. watering places, and within two weeks
there will be hardly bakers dozen left
70 haunt the galleries of congress or to
held red hot receptions in their WASH
ippton houses. Quite a number of the
,ooety leaders are now in Europe. Mrs
Iustice Field sailed June 10 with Miss
Alice Condit Smith, who is to be married
abroad, and she will spend the simmer
in England and on the continent. II is
some wears since she has crossed the
ocean, and her usual vacations are spent
in connection with Judge Field in trav-
cling through the West, where the
iudge's circult lies. Mrs. Justice Miller
| 1 now at her beautiful home on Block
island and Justice Blatchford and wife
have left for their cottage at Newport.
one Of the finest of Newport IS cottages
belongs to Historian Bancroft, and the
old man will spend the summer there.
He has not been well during the latter
part of the season, and has practically
given up his literary work. Some of his
best work has been done in Newport,
and the Redwood library is one of the
best historical libraries of the country.
He has fine rose garden at Newport,
and his cottage there overlooks the sea.
He takes his family with him and his big
Germrn servant, Hermann, will always
be by his side.
Mrs Wanamaker and the girls are at
lindenhurst, the Wanamaker country
home near Philadelphia. They will re-
main there until July l. when they will
20 10 the Wauamaker cottage at Cape
May and remain there until the begin
ming of August. Postmaster General
Wanemaker's custom has been to spend
August at Saratoga, and it is probable
that the family will remain there until
they are ready TO come back 10 Wash
ington in the fall. Mrs. Harrison
thoroughly enjoys her life at Cape May
and the most OF the summer will be
spent in the cottage there, though the
president may take one or two runs up
to Deer Park. A private letter from
Cape May says that Baby Mckee is
growing fat under the revlvifying air
from the sea and the coast seems TO suit
the young man quite as well as that of
the Allegheny mountains. Madame
Romero and the Mexican minister will
sail for Europe i'll July and they will
spend the summer abroad. Miss Letter,
the daug hter of the millionaire Chicago
merchant who paJs $40, 200 a year for
the six month g rent of Blaine s house in
Washington. has gone to Europe and she
will probably be besieged by the fortune
hunters. Her father is worth anywhere
from five to ten millions, and she has
more bin money than q congressman has
salary. Mrs. Letter has gone to New
York ana the Dupont Circle house is
closed for the summer.
The titled diplomats of the foreign le-
cations are fleeing from Washington.
The Turkish minister, Mavoreyni Bey,
has gone TO Europe. Sir Julian Paunce-
fote, Lady Pauncefote and Miss Paunce-
fote have taken a cottage at Manchester
bY-the-Sea and will spend the summer in
America, though they are planning
trip in Europe next year. The COreans,
both men and women have engaged
quarters at Berkeley Springs, Va, and
they will lave their Jersey cream skins in
the mineral waters there. The Chinese
legation at this writing has not yet left
Washington. Gen. Ed BeGll has gone 10
Manchester by the Sea. Mrs. Senator
Stewart, of Nevada, is in Canada. Mrs.
Senator Gill Pearce has gene 10 her coun-
TRY home in Dakota, and Mrs. Senator
Blackburn and daughter are at Lake
Como, y. j =, where the Kentucky ora
tor has q cottage. Mrs. Senator Iugalls
and family have gone back TO Atchison
and have taken possession of their mag
nIficent establishment in that little city.
Their house there is surrounded by large
and they are as much in the
country as though they were on farm.
The Hon. Hugh McCulloch, ex-secretary
of the treasury, will spend the
greater part of the summer
on his farm in Maryland, and Mrs.
Senator Squire has taken quarters
for the season in the New York
village where her children are at school.
In September she and Miss Squire will
90 with the senator to Seattle for cou-
Pile of months. MIR. Kaufman of the
Washington Star has left for Alaska
With his wife and Mrs. Justice Waite and
daughter have gone TO Europe Mrs.
Senator Sherman is spending more time
than usual in Washington, but she will
soon leave for her home at Mansfield,
where she has q magnificent, establish
ment. Senator Eyarts will spend the
greater part of the summer on his farm
In Vermont. He owns a place near
the milk produced by which
costs, he says, more than champagne
and the butter averages somewhere about
% O pound. Senator Evarts is one of the
argest feeders in public life and ne
thoroughly enjoys good living. His
ong, thin frame can take in an almost
amount of terrapin aud cham
pane aud one of the best bon mots
Shich ever passed from lip TO lip in
Washington society was that made by
Roscoe Conkling when he sat at the other
'nd of the table from Evarts at White
House dinner. he esst his eyes of Evarts !
as he went boldly through course after /
course and finally said TO the pea at his !
de: ''See little Evarts Feeding his
apeworm.
Senator Edmunds has a very pretty |
'ountry place in Vermont. and his home |
Il Burlington is high and cool. Senator |
Vance OF North Carolina has about a
thousand acres surrounding his country (
,lace near Asheville, n. c.. aud he says |
lie would a thousand times rather go |
here than to White sulphur Springs or |
