much talked Of young woman at pres
ent. She will be married In the early
winter season to Joseph Howell and
the affair will be a great society event.
Miss Dutton spent some time here
about two years ago and created gen
eral havoc among the young men, for
she has a most charming personality
and added to this is possessed OF n
fascinating manner which makes every
man she comes In contact with think
he is the favored one-but alas! and
alack! Miss Gertrude only has little
way with her and did not always mean
what she said. The Examiner says:
miss Dutton is very stylish and car
ries herself well: besides she has an
attractive personality and is greatly
loved by her friends. Her engagement
is one OF the most important ones Of
the year. Mr.. Howell Is an enthus-

every eye was turned upon her, and
Mrs. Porter Boyd, another beauty, and
Mrs. Dutton took the palm for lowell

way, is a Lehr only In so far as his
capacity for contributing to the gayety
