At the Busch Mansion
The day passed quietly at the Busch
mansion, the newly arrived head of the
family putting in the time very pleas
antly in surveying the improvements
about the grounds and in resting up
Lieut.. SCharrer did not deViate from
his established custom as far as could
be seen and spent most Of the day
with the Busch family. He and Miss
Wilhelmina are reported to have gone
out driving during the afternoon al
though they have long since ceased to
frequent the principal streets of the
city.
Mr.. Busch Is much interested in the
great automobile which was shipped
from st. Louis for his use and is said
to contemplate many trips about the
country in it as soon as 1t is ready.
There are no outward or unusual signs
Of the expected nuptials and the oc-
cupants of the Busch mansion appear
to desire more than anything else rest
from the strenuous life they have beer
leading. 1t is understood that as soon
as the weather has become a little
more settled work will be begun anew
upon the splendid Busch garden along
the lines laid out by its millionaire
owner.
