! One of the pr9ttiest of these is Mrs
! Eggleston, whose house entertainments
are so charmingly managed that she has
won the title of being as successful host
ess as there is in Lennox.
Arthur Rotch, the millionaire architect
whose delight it is to design the palatia
residences which are the pride of every
place having citizens wealthy enough to
| build them, is frequently seen by the side
OF the beautiful Mrs. Eggleston, and, now
the gossips are saying that the reported en-
eagement of Mr.. Rotch 10 Miss Handy of
Baltimore would have been more nearly in
accordance with the fact ii the name OF
Miss Handy had been substituted for that
of another fair woman. Mr.. Rotch and
Mrs. Eggieston are frequently sen walk
ing together, and a tall, graceful couple
they make.
One must not forget George Broome,
who is spending the entire fall season at
Lenox and who enjoys the distinction of
possessing
THE LARGEST WARDROBE OF ANY MAN
in America He has trousers to a number
that is beyond counting, and his coats,
vests and ties are almost equally numer-
Gus. With each change of suit there il q
new walking stick taken from the depths
Of Mr.. Broome's luggage, and each time he
wears new hat it has been noticed that
his shoes are also of q different pattern
than any he had previously worn. Mr.
| Broome aspires to be the new Berry Wall,
| and when be travels he has van all to
himself for transporting his numerous
| bags, valises and trunks.
| In Saratoga every other distinguished
locking man one sees is poin ted out as 'one
OF the Hiltons" At LenoX he is pretty
sure to be lone of the Frelinghuysens."
| Everything is reckoned az such high
| figures that one is quite disappointed to
learn that the Frelinghuvsens have rented
their cottage for the season for the small
sum of 81, 500 and that they are living in
one which they hired tor only 5000.
| The land round about sells for upwards
| of S14 600 an acre, and much of it is not for
sale at any price.
Mrs. Sloane's house-Mrs Sloane was a
| Vanderbilt, you knoW-cost ABOUT two mil
| lions with the grounds around IL, and the
Westinghouse mansion and grounds cost
half as much again. Mr.. Jessop's barn is
as pretty as any country villa. and Mr.
Sloane's is as pretentious as the Casino in
Central park.
Mr.. Westinghouse icehouse, with the
picturesque EsQuimo shivering on top Of it.
is not unlike q country church. And the
cottages built for the servants are so grand
that one is tempted to fall TO and become
a farm hand"
General Rathbone's place is not nearly so
grand, but it is more historic. Beecher
lived there and wrote i'll one of the win
dows. Pierrepont Morgan and Joseph Pull
itzer have both occupied the house during
various summers.
1t is rumored that the Goelets will soon
build upon the property which they own
and upon which there is now q PLAIN farm
house. Mr. Goelet was anxious TO erect
house there three years ago But Mrs
Goelet chose Newport as being more fash
ionable and satisfactory for the money.
THERE ARE so MANY BRIGHT PRETTY Girls
at Lenox that one is bewildsred by tho
galaxy of loneliness. Miss Kitty Gahdv ia
a very fair girl with a frank, open counter
ance and q style of loneliness W ioh ia
neither blonde Dor brunette. The brightest
girls of the season are said to be the Misses
Ives, and their bon mots go the rounds of
LenoX society.
Mrs. Turnure, she who was-as they saw
in the country-Miss Lanier is among the
sprightliest of young matrons and cuts an
awfully pretty figure when she drives ont
with gay crowd which she is entertaining
as her guests.
The Westinghouse do not go In society
