in a we'll fitting blue bathing suit to speak
to this and that group. The Dun turnout

hrs. Nathan Seeley. the step daughter of
T. I. Barnum's heir. is n slender, graceful,
brown-haired woman. HeT costumes are
ALWAYS in perfect taste. To-day she Is in
handsome Lavender with dainty bonnet of
lilacs and sunshade gloves and shoes of
white.
Mrs. Richard Irwin, of New York, whose
charitable works are so we'll known, is a
stately, dne-lookina brunette, dressed in
black lace. Mrs. Mortimer Addoms. wife
of tho prominent lawyer and secretary of
charming brunette, is walking with her fair
young daughter.
Mrs. Pepvs, of London, tall, dark, in
mauya silk and black lace, saunters along,
II Mrs. Jack Shepherd, who has done 30
much TO the Pier, goes by in II becoming
black gown, surrounded by an animated
group of young Ieople. Another one of the
bellies comes along the walk, a distinguished
looking blonde in a white serge gown. Miss
Carrie Morrow is one OF the athletic girls,
devoted to outdoor sn,oFts and romps. She
is always accompanied by her brother and
usually by some other girls brother.
There arc several handsome Young men
here who are pointed out as "bloods" and
''hiRh-rollers.'' There are Col. Wheaton,
Ned Gray, Martin de Garmendia and Will
liam Kane, TO whom belongs tina distinc-
tion of driving the most stunning trap
here. MIR. Kane is also one of the most
perfect dressers at the Pier and creates n
distinct stir when he drives his FLOODED
tandem through the town. Perhaps ono of
the handsomest men here is Ned Buckley,

ceive many Rlancss of admiration from the
bellies. These young men find plenty of
ways to spend money. There may be 4
quick sup. er at the Casino or JReger's, or a
dinner at Sherry's or a blackboard rile after
rhododeudons. which 10 one of the features
here. There is no yachting. but horseback
riding, dancing and flowers for the girls
mean endless exi enses. to say nothing OF
the drinks. which every man who under
stands good form must put himself outside
of during the twenty-four hours. Think of
the bar bill u Young swell must pay, when a
Julip costs 40 cents, n brandy and soda ~
cents and every cocktail 25 cents. Why,
its enough to ruin every dear boy.
On the way mp from the beach is Il strong
attraction for all the dudes. II is in the
shape of a sancy, piquant little beauty in a
lapidary's shop. The very smartest traps
ut the Pier stand by the hour in front of
that shop, and small wonder, when one sees
the delicious little creature who tells Cholly
how no should have his sleoye-links reset
or his locket studded. II ia whispered that
more than one proud beauty ia jealous Of
the presiding divinity of that iapadary's
shop.
Complete white costumes are all the rage
at Nn~rraaansett. From hat to shoes,
madame or miss Sttires herself, for this vir-
ginal costume once, supposed to be oonsc-
Grated to young girls, has been nppropri-
ated by the married bellies. Going down
the pavilion walk to-day, l met \ striking
looking woman on this sunny side OF forty.
She was large and luscious, and dark. and

bar shape. Her hat. her gloves, her para
