Russian Bazaar

Countess Cassini adopted daughter of
the Russian ambassador. and the most
advertised foreign woman in America,
gave society lively bout from Tuesday
morning until curfew rang last night.
She will probably go' down in history as
the only woman living who could induce
ambassadors and foreign ministers TO
stand about under dripping skies like
ducks in a barnyard, or society women
to trail through veritable puddles of
muddy water dressed in their most ex-
quisite lawn party attire, and cajole the
passing throng into parting with fabu-
lous amounts for mere trifies.
There was the most beautiful lawn in
the District of Columbia, with almost
every blade of grass the same length,
and over its smooth face veritable
fairy show of tents and booths. one of
them a genuine flower creation, with a
straw matched roof; there were unique
signs and startling and grotesque cos
tunes. and music. and women in superb
French lawn party gowns-a most beau
tiful sight for the sun to shine upon,
but 1t did not shine. Instead, the heav-
ems wept upon II alf until there stood
ambassadors looking for all the world

had tasted the gore of the contestants.

water down white shirt fronts, while
other diplomatists about looked to have
entered a free-for-aIl fight a.d every
man worsted in the bout.
There were diplomats under the drip
ping boughs buying hot waffles at Il
cents apiece. and eating them from the
palm Of their hand, and washing them
down with ice cold beer. There were
women and men huddled like wet sheen
in a fold under some generous canvas.
and barterins for toys or flowers, and
there We're pretty women skipping over
the soggy lawn in slippered feet and
their dresses held at bathing suit length,
and more, mucl, more, to be seen at
Countess Cassinfs fair-and all for the
love of Russia? Well not much. These
people had started in to help the little
countess. and there she stood, reckless
Of the bedraggled skirts about her feet
unmindful of the rain dripping from her
picture hat, unmindful of the sorry pic
ture she made, and thinking only OF
carrying her great scheme to success;
and they had spoiled then best clothes
anyway, these society people, and they
were now in IL for all the fun and profit
possible.
Miss Roosevelt stayed TO the jolly big
dinner party IN the tent that night
Tuesday highland as the guest of the
Henry Mays. She wore a charming fresh
white frock and a picture hat, with a
lace frill four inches deep falling from
the brim, and having the time of her
life. It was awfully Bohemian. and
