The Worlds Columbian Exposition has
wrought change-an unwonted change
In the social world. Usually at this time
people are either preparing for the hegira
to Europe or consulting modistes and mil
liners. and heretofore no entertainments
have been projected during these languor-
GUS days of spring, when. to be 'as idle as
painted ship upon a painted ocean" seems
the NEST attractive phase of existence to
contemplate. The rush of Europeans
bound for Chicago. the arrival Of mobiles
from foreign strands has infused unusual
vivacitY and zeSt into social pleasurings,
and grand dinners and luncheons are yet
1lling the programme of pleasure, and
ball is being projected for the evening of
Apri! 2S. The price of tickets has been
placed at SIC. Five thousand Invitations
have been issued. and, as may be readily
inferred. the company will include many
more than MIR. McAlliSteT's 400" Poor
Mr.. McAlister has excited the ire OF Chi
cag0ans by his patr0niZng article in one of
the sensational dailles here upon the good
it would do the Chicago millionaires to
come in contact with the representatives of
New YoTk's swelldom. The Chicagoans
cOnSderi 9 these remarks incendiary have
fired back at Mr.. McAllister a voliey of
scathing word missiles warranted TO make
the alleged leader of New i0rk's "400"
retire in disgrace.
The Bradley Martins are wishing in their
heart of hearts that they had remained in
Europe TO have the Wedding of their
daughter to the Earl of Craven celebrated
in London. Mr.. Bradley Martins refusal
to pay duty upon his several trunks and
the assertion that his daughters wedding
gown was s0iled (she having worn IL at
several receptions III LOudon), provoked no
end of criticism.
The gossipers in society Immediately
turned the search-light of inquiry upon the
career of the Earl OF Craven. These gentle
gammerS and CATERS allege that 1.-THE mar
riage was not celebrated in London be-
cause none of the EarPs relatives would
have been present at the ceremony" 1t is
further alleged, the brother that accom-
panies him is the only one of his family
that speaks to him. This may be all abso-
lutely false, as may be other stories that are
told showing that this nobly born young
man has achieved a picturesque reputation,
but the society folk who quntf the good old
wine and feast at the board of the Bradley
Martins tell these tales with unctuous
courtesy, and refuse 10 have their eyes
gamOured by the SIGHT of this scion Of an
ancient race. The Bradley Will
take a glimpse of Chicago and then HE
away to Europe and stay there. Ii will be
sufficient glory to know their d0ings are re-
ported for the edfication of their friends in
America in the social columns of the news
papers. The stories told of the Earl are
piquaut and entertaining, and although he
is but %. if all that is said is true. he has
tripped merrily through life at a jocund
pace, indulging in THE Joys that kill" He
looks quite young and boyish.
The Lorillard- Taller wedding was q huge
disappointment to many who expected this
marital affair would be one of briliancy
and ecaf. Mrs Lorlllard is bitterly OBJ osed
to social notoriety and is exclusive to de-
gree. She opposed the marriage at first
because her daughter was so young. The
gOssipers declare that Mrs. Lorillard is
disappointed woman. her husband is i'll
and away from her most OF the time. A
son she doiZed died upon reaching his ma
jority. Her married daughter here is a
thorough LOrillard. The daughter Just
married resembles the mother. She has
the same slender, graceful figure, the same
exquisite complexion, beautiful dark eyes
and hair, much spirit and the high-bred air
of Mrs. Lorilard's family. Tho mother
rightly thought she would be belle, and
wished her TO see more of the world before
choosing a husband, Miss Lorillard, though
