The St. Louis Republic., 1903-02-08

With the waning season come thoughts OF
winter resorts.
Many rumors are in the air. and persons
whom one knows are leaving daily. That
large ST. Louis party Of the Rumseys. the
Chappslls, the joe Millers, the Ramsey
girls the Sempies. in all about fifty. has left
rather a gap, and the Choral-Sympbony
concert last Thursday night was minus
many well-known persons in the boxes. The
remainder of the house, however. did not
suffer. and I never saw a more enthusiastic
audience. especially after Nine. Hinchliffe' s
Sweet Genevieve" ballad.
Here are few jottings about other peo-
pie that you know: Mr. and Mrs. Albert
Bond Lambert will sail for Paris about the
18th for quick trip Of six weeks. Mr..
Lan.bert's business interests demand a Eu-
ropean visit once each year, and Mrs. Lam
bert will go over for some new frocks and a
little jaunt on the Riviera.
Mrs. Northrop Mcmillan is in town with
her London friend. Mrs. Adams. They
Will try to do" the country in three weeks,
as a friend facetiously remarks. and are
now on the point of taking the Mcmillan
private car for Florida On their return
North they will stop in the National Capt.
tai, and sail for England, which Mrs. McMil-
Ian now regards as home, in six weeks. Mr..
Mcmillan has already started on his Abys-
s.nian expedition. MS. William Mcmillan,
who went abroad last fall. is now touring
Dpdih Win IlOTnDurGh mas
been invited to join Mrs. Northrop McMil-
lan's car party. but at last accounts had not
fully decided upon going.
Mr.. e. C. Simmons and his niece, Miss
Hattie Glenn, are established at Miami
Fla. where they spend part of every win
ter. Mrs. Simmons will not go down. Mr..
and Mrs William Funsten and their chill
dren are in the Bahamas. and were regis
tered at Nassau hotel last week.
Mr.. and Mrs. Louis Mullsardt have
reached England. and are now settled in
Manchester. where Mr.. Mullgardt Will de-
sign hotel interior that is TO cost several
millions of dollars. Mrs. Mullgardt spent
fortnight with the James Stewards on her
arrival. while her husband went to Man
chester to prospect. They are now estab-
nshed al a delightful apartment that per.
fnits OF light housekeeping in the coZy Eng
nsh way. and are beginning to take no.
uce." the first homesickncss and newness OF
things having worn off. Their address is
st. Peters Chamber. st. Peters Square
Manchester" which certainly does sound
British. don't you know.
MT. and Mrs. Larry" Mauran, Miss Cat
lin and their party will go to Palm Beach
next week. with Mardi Gras stop, as in
previous seasons. I trust that their hotel
experience will not be the same as last year
In New Orleans. Tho inconveLiences they
were obliged to encounter, in spite of pre-
vious engagement of rooms, etc. was some
thing quite terrifying.
The Zach Thinkers will, as usual, try Palm
Beach for their spring outing, but do not
expect to go South until Mr.. Tinker returns
from New York, which will be in fort
night. Miss Carrie Tinker viii. of course,
pe Of the party. Mr.. and Mrs. Edgar French
OF Webster went to Ormond Fla, Tuesday
and will stay until the buds are bursting on
their suburban trees.
Mrs. Charles Hills and her little son have
returned from a Peoria visit OF scme length
and are stopping at one OF the uptown
hotels before going TO California. They will
start westward about the 18th.
MFR. and Mrs. Huntington Smith will set
sail for Florida this week. in hopes OF be-
ing benefited by warmer breezes Mrs.
Smith has not been in the best Of health
for several months. To California will go
Mr.. and Mrs John ". Kaufman. making
Pasadena their objective point. They ex-
pect to depart this week. Major and Mrs.
George Goddard Will go TO Lower California
the middle of the month.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dutheil Cabanne have
planned fine jaunt to Texas New orleans
for Mardi Gras. and thence TO Pass Chris
tian. where they Will shoot snipe and duck
for awhile Mrs. Cabanne has a most CO.
quettish corduroy outfit and as her marks
manship is unquestoned. they expect to
have all sorts OF fun and to bag all sorts
