Amelie Rives- Chanler, the noted novelist.
will shortly remove to New York for a
heightened stay. She contemplates fitting up
an artistic fiat and gathering a number of
the representative writer's about her in a
weekly salon.
Salons continue to be the thing for peo-
pie OF note. One is not expected unless one
knows something, or has had something in
ones life to count as conspicuous. Every
one there feels that they are above the
mediocrlty, and 1t is a fact not to be dis
puted. The long haired person is always the
virtuoso, the slim young woman in
pale green or yellow, disciple Of Delsarte,
or lover of art in general; the expressive
faces and artistic eyes meeting ones own,
men and women made famous by their
pens, while silver-throated exponents of
song stand between. 1t is a place to see
life, and plenty of it, and one always goes
away with a sense Of satisfaction at having
been in proper and congenial element, the
only regret being that so many evenings in
tervene before the next.

old classic songs and those of our new mas
ters were rendered In grand style, the solists

babe their hosts good-by, Icing fully con-

pear the mornings refiection-no katzen-
jammer.
