After the excitement of the tournament and
the additional german the pleasures Of las.
week were of q more restful kind, consisting Of
driving, bowling and recreations of like sort,
although the Tuesday german and the evening
dances were not intermitted. The hot weather

mountain breezes and the number of guests is

were given, and Of these Mrs. A. Thorn ton Of
Balt,m ore ard Mrs. James Keith of Warrenton
carried off the first On the ladies' side and

tons for subscription german, which took

possible, and l can mention but q few, adding
