Grant home will again bs a center Of
gaiety.
Miss Ruth Hanna will next week join
party of Cleveland friends on a drive
| through the Berkshire hills of Massa-
chusetts, beginning on Sept. 1. Miss
Foraker went last week to Hot
Springs, Va, where Senator and Mrs.
Foraker are passing the summer. Mrs.
James Macmillan, widow of the sena-
tor, returned from his funeral in De-
troit a few days ago to Manchester
by-the-Sea, where he died. Her son
and daughter, Mr.. William c. McMil-
Ian and Miss Amy, and her grand
| daughter, Grace Mcmillan Jarvis, ac-
companied her. They will remain at
| Manchester till late autumn. Senator
and Mrs. Fairbanks and family have
settled at Seabright, n. j., for the rest
| of the summer and early autumn. AS
president general of the Daughters of
the American Revolution, Mrs. Fair
banks spends a great deal of time and
energy in working for the organiza-
ton. Though she will open her hos
| pitable home here in October for the
annual reunion of the Grand Army of
| the Republic, she will close it again
and return to Seabright to seek much
needed rest until about time for Con-
greSs to reconvene.
Mrs Dewey likes Mount Pocono, Pa,
so we'll, that she and the Admiral have
extended their stay there much be-
yond THE time limit first fixed. The
two gray-haired married lovers take
long walks over the mountain paLns
togetheH hunting ferns and wild flow
ers and disporting themselves like hap
Ply children. The guests at the va
rious hotels of that popular resort have
grown so accustomed to seeing the hero
of Manila bay that he now passes
among them without the slightest en-
barrassing attention. He sits in the
parlor and lounges in the galleries and
talks with his neighbOrs in the heart
lest manner, not infrequently interest
ing them with stories of Manila and
the Philippines. A few days ago the
| Poncono people gave a fair for the
| benefit of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the
Protective Health Association-the I'LL
innate design being to build and, equip
a small emergency hospital for Mount
! Pacono. Admiral Dewey presented
three American battle flags to the la
| dies, which sold for 1855.
The changes in the diplomatic corps
will certainly be very striking next
winter Unless DR.. Won Holleben, the
| German ambassador, is also transfer
! red to another post, he will be the dean
of the corps in place of the late Lord
| Pauncefote; and Nine. de Azperoz,
wife of the Mexican ambassador will
be it's first lady" so to speak. Count
ess Cassini, adopted daughter of the
| Russian am baSsador, takes place
next to the wives of the ministers, ac-
| cording to diplomatic etiquette. On
| New Years day, however, the young
Russian girl will accompany the am
| baSSador and the members of his staff
in the second group to be received by
| the President and Mrs. Roosevelt. The
Mexican ambassador is third in length
| of service here and at the diplomatic
state dinner his wife will enjoy the
much coveted distinction so long en-
| joyed by Lady Pauncefote of being es-
corted by the President of the United
States and seated at his right hand.
| The two American ambassadresses,
| Nine. Jusserand and Lady Herbert,
will have to sit at the very tail end
of the first group in the corps, unless
some further changes push their dis
| tinguished husbands up place or
two. No uninitiated individual can
comprehend all the finer standings of
diplomatic etiquette; but to transgress
the unwritten law in the smallest par
ticular would raise a tempest in the
tremely hard to Give down" Nine.
Jusserand, wife of the French ambass-
ador who succeeds Cambon,
was Miss Richards of New
York, daughter of part
ner in the banking house of Munroe &
Co. She is yet at Copenhagen, where
! her husband has been stationed the
last four years, and will not come to
the United States before November.
Count and Countess Bosom de Peri
! CORD, who were married in London last
| October, will arrive in this country
| soon, for a visit to the Countess par
ents, Vice President and Mrs. Levi P.
Morton. She was Helen Morton you
know, eldest daughter of the family,
and much beloved in Washington Her
younger sister, Mary Morton, has re-
| Gently established a home for conval-
/ escent children at Rhinebeck-on-the-
| Hudson. Countess Bosom de Perigord
has not been in her native land since
her marriage.
Senator and Mrs Depew, who ar
rived from Europe last Saturday, will
| probably not come to their Washing
| ton home until just before the opening
| of Congress; the house being all torn
up undergoing extensive repairs
Washington is still interested in the
doings of that gifted authoress, Mrs.
FRANCES hodSSon burnett townsend,
who lived so many years in this city,
before her divorce from DR.. Burnett
and her second marriage to her Eng
| fish secretary Mr.. Townsend. She has
| been spending the summer with the
literary colony at East Hampton and
is just now enjoying a visit from her
son. Mr.. Vivian Burnett, who continues
to make his home in Washington, with
his father. The tall. handsome college
