GAY FELIX'S M0NACLE.
PAINTING FASHION As 1T FLIES.
Society IL No Longer Asking About the
sommer That is Gone. But 10 Anticipat-
ing the Winter That 10 Coming.

Richmond, Va, Oct. 15-"The smart
set having generally mingled together
since their return to the city are done
with the interrogatory greeting, half
curious and half civil. Whit sort of
summer have you had?" to replace 1t
with the query of now more paramount
Importance. what kind of winter do you
expect?" In answer there uprises a
simultaneous chorus of prophesyi ing, but
in such perfect accord are all of the
voices that the sound comes to us of one
harmonious wall that the season will be
fiat, stale and Improbable" The CIR
cumstantial evidence summed up TO prove
the whyfOre of this death sentence TO
the hopes of the gay hearted butterflies
of fashion is both complex and conclu-
sive, so there seems an inevitable dull
ness brooding over society for the coming
winter and the only thing which seems
possible TO save it is that illogical and
paradoxical proverb. 1T is the unex-
pected which always happens.
BRILLIANT SOCIAL LIFE.
A city. of Richmonds representation for
brilliant social life will perforce meet
some of the demands of the public to
sustain its honored boast of hospitality
and elegant entertaining, but it is by
comparison that we judge of all things,
and beside the brilliancy of past seasons,
the forthcoming can but be as twilight
glow compared to the monday radiance.
Richmond society was but lately
monarchy with a Queen both wise and
beautiful TO rule over its realm, where
with love and loyalty every cOurtier
was proud to follow her graceful,
gracious lead She is now no more,
save an everlasting, sacred memory,
and we are henceforth a restless Republic
with candidates galore for supremacy
and representatives without number but
no head, no one name that of itself has
the magic power to convey dignity and
insure success, be it really to lend its aid
TO a charity performance or a private
fete. Weddings, the annual events so
prolific of a phase of gaiety, now, how
ever numerous, are no longer factors in
any social galaxy, since fashion has de-
creed that the more quiet and more ex-
elusive the nuptial affairs the sweller
they be.
HOMES BERRAvED.
Again it is melancholy to observe how
many houses associated with brilliancy
and regal hospitality will this season be
closed, the places known by their ra-
dience filed with the lurking shadows of
some recent sorrow.
A most deeply regretted elimination of
gaiety is the Tuesday German Club
which has disbandcd. There was such IL
charming spirit of life and vigor, coupled
with true spirit of elegance and refine
ment in It's entertainments that it will
be truly missed by the lovers Of this
popular dance.
The Richmond German Club, the life
IL
still flourisheth with offers of grateful con-
ISOLATION to those shedding tears over the
untimely and deeply-regretted demise of
'The Tuesday" 1t has increased its
membership from eighty to one hundred
so if there he aught in more the mer-
rier" the old club will be far more de-
ightful and much merrier than ever be-
