Mrs Stuy esa 1t Fish, who has accom-
plished enough both at Newport and in
New York to enttle her to rank as an au-
will be the social center of the country, ac-
cording to an interview held with her by
Star representative yesterday. Mr.. and
Mrs. Fish have just returned from a trip
west as far the Pacific coast. AT the
very outset of this journey this interesting
woman relieved her mind of a few stored
up reflections on society as it is pictured
from the doings of a few Of the holders Of
the longest purses Mrs. Fish contributed
no small part of the gayety there herself
since she took up h residence at Cross
ways, one of the most gorgeous of the cot
tages," and inaugurated new era for the
cliff jewellers. There is no doubt, however,
but that she is tired of it, and is longing
for new field for her undoubted ability
If she Is thinking over the advantages Of
this city as winter residence her coming
would be welcomed. She has all the snap
and go that in the comparatively limited
territory in which the fashionable set here
live and die, would inject a pleaSurable in
terest in new ways of managing the old
idea. But If she comes with the notion that
1t will be nice thing to push the profess
sional people to the front rank in society
which they deserve in her opinion, she will
find that they have always been there, and
that the dollar mark has not been the sole
passport to their complete enjoyment of
what the best circles had to offer in hos
pitality or entertainment. Mrs. Fish has
not wintered here, and, therefore, has not
studied the society question from our stand
point. Entertaining the millionaire class
exclusively, as one is likely 20 do in New
port or on 9TH avenue, grows weariSome,
too after while, and there is where the
poor and genteel can extract comfort and
likewise keep down feelings of envy.
