cottages. Even that magnificent pal.
ace built by w. X. Vanderbilt. Marble
House. which represents an expendi.

cottage.
Everything in Newport Is measur-
Cd by the scale Of millions. Even the

IL monument TO his colossal vanity.
But 1t has the merit of being Il beau.
tlful and magnificent monument.
For about six weeks i'm the year
Newport is the society center of
America. The gathering isfevcn more
representative than can be found in
New York during the opera season.
a majority OF the cottagers are New
York millionaires. but Boston. Phila.
delphia, Chicago, San Francisco and
other cities send their most fashionable
folk TO take part in the festivities. II
