AsToR spENDs MONEY FREELY
His House One Of the Most Hospital
BILE In ENGLAND.

One of the most extravagant house
holds in England is that of William
Waldorf Astor, whose son William is
now in this country. Aston, ST., is
entertaing large house parties in
Cliveden. 1t would be hard to excel
the Aston hospitality. A band of ten
musicians is stationed permanently
in Cliveden. Every night this band
plays and the guests may dance or
not, as they choose. A few weeks
ago the duchess of wellington was
the Astors' chief guest. She said
she was dying to have some anna
teur theatricals." She wrote out q
list of costumes and the steward was
sent to London for them. A stage
was built in the ballroom and scenes
we're painted hurriedly. This enter
tainment for the duchess cost great
deal. Since young William Aston has
been in America nothing has been
heard of him in social way. He
served in His Majesty's guards and
is as British as though he we're a
