AT GARDEN PARTY
Social Function at the spanish Lee
cation at Washington Has
Unique Features.

Diplomatic and official society
turned out in force to attend the gar
den party at the Spanish legation the
other night.
The old garden, surrounded by
high wall over which vines grow in
profusion, was made still gayer by
the addition of bunting in yellow and
red, and brilliant hued umbrellas, UNI
der which refreshments and small
wares were sold. The booths, presid-
ed over ~ young women, We're can
opted With dogwood blossoms.
Miss Edith Root, who turned tobac-
conist for the occasion, has as "a sign
the typical wooden Indian painted in
new and gaudy colors. Over the
bunting back of her stand were to-
bacco signs and posters. Miss Root
proved that at least one member Of
the cabinet family is not down on
trusts and the $500 worth OF tobacco
given her by the tobacco trust for
sale made one of the hits Of the s.
ernoon. The young diplomats .sele
poor in money. but rich in pipes, ci
they left the garden party.
Another feature was The restaurant
over the stable where were sold ices
and refreshing drinks.
Among the society women who con
tributed to the success Of the gar
den party by lending their personal
assistance were Baroness Hengelmui-
Ter, Mrs Letter, Miss Richard Town
send, Mrs Crackanthorpe, Nine De-
margerie, Mrs. Corhin, Mrs. Henry
May, Countess Cassini, Miss Patten.
Miss Audrey Pauncefote. Miss New
lands and Miss Wetmore. A number
of the young diplomats joined in
making the affair a gay one, and al
together prettier garden party was
never given in Washington.

greatest quantities, have been but little at
fected until the last one During the years
of 1896 81, however. these interests, like the
sugar interests OF Matanzas, suffered heav-
lily from the conflicts waged over the tobacco
territory, and the planters are but now fully
recovering from the effects Of the devasta-
ton which the revolution left in its path.
Among other agricultural products which
the island is capable OF producing, and from
which much may be expected in the future,
are coffees and fruits. The former is espe-
cially adapted to the mountain-sides and hill
lands of the eastern portion. There was
time when considerable quantity of coffee
was exported from the island, but the POI
litical conditions rendered its cultivation
improbable, as there was always an uncer-
tainty OF getting the crop to market In
point of quality Cuba can produce as good
coffee as is grown anywhere in the world,
and there is but little doubt that it will soon
become leading industry.
Though the present value of the fruit crop
of Cuba has greatly diminished in COMPARE
son with what it was few years ago II IS
still of considerable Importance, and may be
expected to assume even greater Importance
in the industrial development OF the island
under the new regime. In the eastern end Of
the island there are now large number OF
beautiful banana plantations high up the
mountains that supply to the American mar
kets the best Of this class Of fruit that is sold
in this country. Oranges and pineapples Of
unusual size and flavor are also grown
throughout the island
But Cuba possesses more than agricultural
wealth. Her forests supply mahogany, log
wood and fustic in some quantities, though
the supply is limited, and great source Of
wealth is in her, as yet, almost undeveloped
mines, Iron, manganese, copper and salt
are all mined in paying quantities, though
on comparatively small scale. OF them all
iron is the chief OF the mineral product. The
iron mines are located few miles east of
Santiago, and, while they have not as yet
been worked to any large extent. the Amer
lean company which controls them have ex-
pended large sums in preparatory develop
ment That these iron mines will become OF
considerable Importance in the develop
ment Of the island cannot be doubted.
With such resources to draw upon Cuba,
under progressive and enlightened govern
ment that will encourage rather than an
tagonize development, should soon take a
leading place among the smaller commercial
nations of the world
