| impression in Newport now Is that they
are going TO sweep things. At any rate,
the Newport people know that they can
sweep things if they so desire. Fur
thermore, the Newport people are quite
willing, even anxious, that the Drexels
| should sweep things, and they dom
care how quickly they begin. 1t is gen.
orally conceded that Mrs. Potter Palm
er will do a little sweeping. The Cal
vim Brices have cut quite a figure at
Newport in recent years and will do so
| again.
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver Belmont are ex-
pected TO do considerable entertaining
at Newport this season. Mrs. Astor will
occupy her cottage, as usual, and Will be
visited there by the John Jacob Astors
for short time. Marble House. which
is always the first place that the tour
list wants to see in Newport, will not be
the scene of any remarkable festivi-
ties. 1t will be occupied. as it was last
season. by Willie X. Vanderbilt's two
sons and their mothers sister. Miss
Smith. The Havemeyers. who have al
ways exercised such a delightful influ-
ence over the social body at Newport,
will occupy their cottage, but will take
no part in the gayeties of the season.
In point Of fashion Bar Harbor. on
the Maine coast, comes next to New
port in the summer resort catalogue. 1t
is the resort of the intellectual set as
well as of the wealthy ones. Already
there are large number of cottagers
at Bar Harbor. but the Fourth of July
usually arrives before there is any real
evidence of life at the clubhouses. Fred
erick Gerhard has already arrived. The
entertainments given by him last year
have not yet ceased TO be the talk Of

| the bathing suit OF the summer girl. Un-
KIND writer's have declared that she
wears ii for the sake of looks only and
that she obeys strictly the injunction of
the mother in the nursery rhyme, Don't
go near the water" But IL she loves a
morning dip-and why should she not?
she finds that stylish appearance,
comfort and comparative freedom in
the water are not impossible to COM
bine. So she spends her ingenuity on
some fetching combinations of mate
rails and colors.
Who could expect daughter of luxu

to put on the commonplace costume of
plain blue flannel? Would she consent
to appear In an ugly bathing dress any
more willingly than in a cheap ball
gown?
The swell set idle away the summer
days at Newport. the most fashionable
watering place of the fashionables. DR..
Depew is going there this summer. and
Depew is considered an oracle and an
authority.
A woman of fashion, who usually
knows what she is talking about, said
recently that she thought this season
would be Drexel season. Both John

pilgrimage to Manhattan begins in

This year will be Cape Mays one hun
dreth anniversary as a summer resort.
| and the indications are that il will be
the most successful in its history.
The municipal authorities have been
making preparations to attract the
summer throng. The board walk along
the ocean front has been rebuilt, wild
ened. elevated and extended the entire
length of the front of the city. Just in
side of ii is the ocean driveway, which
is now as fine a drive or wheelman's
road as one could find. Every street in
the town. too. has been remade with
gravel. which has packed almost an
hard as iron.
Who is there who has not heard Of

Along the Rhode Island coast where
Point Judith juts out into the ocean is
great collection of hotels. set where a
break in the rocky line of the coast
affords room for long sweep of sandy
beaches. That is Narragansett Pier, a
place which of late years has grown so
rapidly in favor as a summer resort as
now to hold a place in the front rank.
There annually is the scene of the gay
est OF summer social life. and from all
over the United States people flock by
thousands to disport themselves by the
sea.

and hearts are light. and the sea keeps
breathing health and happiness over
the throng. Owing TO the strong under
tow only a part OF the long beach can
be used for bathing. but that part on
the south is probably the most popular
bathing beach in the country At noon
everybody goes there. and for a couple
OF hours il is the center OF the life OF
the summer colony. The hotels Of the
Pier are many. and they are all good
ones. Hotel life IS the life OF the place.

All along shore, from Bar Harbor to
Cape May, the season has opened. Fifth
avenue folks are setting the fashions at
Newport. Beacon street maidens are
reading novels at Bar Harbor. Quaker
City girls are parading the beach at At
lantic City, and at Long Branch and
Cape May the ultra fashionables from
the west and south are basking in the
sunshine.
