This coat must fit as accurately as that
of his mistress does, for it's usually, by
the way, made from n piece Of her own
gown and it sometimes shows the initials
in silver thread worked in one corner.
Just up near the throat, on the lefthand
side, the tailor is ordered to work a
buttonhole and fix a rubber strap, for
there every morning and afternoon is fast
ened Fido's boutonniere of carnations. But
his dogship's wardrobe does not end here,
for in case of weddings he must have a
suitable garment, more particularly nice
in case 1t is his mistress wedding. Then
the blanket is of pure white corduroy
bound with satin ribbon, while wide
ribbon tied about his body holds nosegay
of real orange blossoms or the same sort
of flowers carried In the bridal bouquet.
On this occasion he wears around his neck
a thickly quilted ruche of white satin
ribbons in place of his collar, and along
with the bridesmaids he comes in for q

CONSPICUOUS ABSENCES. :
One feature of the wedding which has ex-
cited much comment was the fact that few
of w. K. vanderbilt's family were invited
either to the church or to the breakfast.
Cornelius vanderbilts house is closed.
He and his family are in Newport, and will
not return to town for a few days.

sister, and her daughter, Miss Edith Shep-

Vanderbilt, F. W, Vanderbilt, and Mrs.
William H Vanderbilt were not at the
church.
The reason for this absence of the Van

In the c0olnesS between Mrs. w. X. Van
