MISS EUsTIs' FoUR-IN-HAND.
Outside of official circles there are many
women in upper tendon in whose eccen-
tricities may be found food for comment.
Under this head may be included Miss
Lulie Eustis, granddaughter of the beloved
philanthropist, the late William w. Corco-
ran. Miss Eustis inherited a large portion
of her grand slre's wealth, and with her
brothers spends portion of each year at
the old Corcoran residence ON H street,
facing Lafayette park. 1t is well known
idiosyncrasy of this attractive young lady
that she ignores the ordinary destinations of
society INDUCED in by the majority of her
sex, and acknowledges to an absorbing
fancy for the more masculine taste for
sports. Her ruling passion runs to horse
flesh, and as the family have lately added
TO their stable a handsome turnout in the
shape of tally-ho coach with bright yell
low body and fancy trappings for the team
of four high-spirited nags, it is common

on her box on the top of the coach handling
the ribbons with all the grace and skill of
born Jockey. Upon every occasion
of a meet at the Dumblane Club or
driving rapidly along the smooth thorough
fares IN the suburbs of the city, she may
be seen with her chosen friends arrayed in
gay spring toilets presenting a perfect
| flower garden of color and beauty from the
top of the turnout. The closing day of the
recent Ivy city races, the entire party of
young swells enjoyed the scene from their
exalted position wearing the colors Of their
Jockey, rosettes of the same hue ornament
ing the trappings of the horses in true
English style Fortunately for further
display of their boosted style, q heavy
shower with violent wind arose just before
the close of the days programme, driving
all before 1t and scattering the daintily
robed throng hither and thlther IN ever,-
direction for shelter. Gravely Indifferent
to the state of the weather, the coaching
party sat unmoved IN the most exposed por-
ton of the field, simply protected from the
downpour by few light sunshades, from
beneath which the merry party appeared
like dripping naiads, regardless of the in
jury TO dress and jaunty head gear, almost
entirely alone in the hastily deserted field.
MRS. MLEAN's PRIVATE PARK.
Mrs. John Mclean, wife of the eminent
journalist and daughter of General Edward
Beale, whose son, Mr. Thurston Beale, has
just received an appointment as minister
to Persia with the rumored additional
honor of having won the heart and hand of
Miss Hattie Blaine, is probably the only
! Washington woman who can boast the
possession of a private park IN the very
heart Of our populous city. Her spring
fetes and evening lawn parties add their
attractions to her extended list of lavish
hOspitalities.
Everyone is familiar with Mrs. Senator
Davis eccentric liking for black silk IN
derwear and bed draperies of the same
somber hue In other respects this attrac
tive woman is one of the most practical of
young matrons and her home is adorned
with many samples of her skill with the
needle and the brush. Mrs. Blaine brides
herself upon her domestic talents, and am
bilious housewives may well envy her
knowledge of prime rib-roasts. tender
poultry and choice vegetables.
