WASHINGTON.-The allengrossing
w topic of conversation in all sets
of Washington society is the rumored
engagement of Miss Katherine Elkins,
daughter of Senator and Mrs. Stephen
B. Elkins, to the royal duke of Abruzzi,
who was the social lion for few days
last spring when he came in COM
mand of the Italian warships for the
opening of the Jamestown exposition.
This engagement has been rumored
more or less for the last six months,
but has been strenuously denied by
all the members of Miss Elkfns fam
lily. The duke is the first cousin of the
king of Italy, and should he marry
without the approval of his royal rela-
title, one of the most honored in all
Italy, and all his rights as a member
of the royal family. His father, the
late duke of Aosta, was for some time
king of Spain. He can, however, re-
tain his royal prestige, and even the
title by a special act of the Italian
parliament, provided the king gives
his consent to the match.
If this marriage takes place it will
be by all odds the most brilliant i'll
ternational match yet made by a
Washington girl. The duke is the
most distinguished foreigner to come
to the United States a-wooing, and he
has won fame by being the explorer
to reach the farthest point north. He
Is deeply interested in all things per-
tanning to the north pole. He headed
his expedition which made this bril-
liant record, and has been lionized on

clared that never in all his touring

Stephenson Now the Second Oldest Senator

a prominent merchant in Baltimore,
was defrauded of his little fortune by
some of his relatives of the name of
White Il took up the quarrel that
followed" said the senator, land be-
came somewhat bitter toward the
White family. One day when l was
signing my name 1 struck out the f.
and inserted " The change pleased
my fancy and I've continued it ever
since"
The Maryland senator insisted on
being called William Pinckney Whyte.
He did not wish to be known at Will
liam White or William P. White.
Everybody in Maryland knew him as
Pinckney White, he said, and accord
ingly he wished his middle name
spelled out in letters addressed to him.
Notwithstanding his advanced age
the Maryland senator was more alton
tive to his duties than many of his
younger colleagues. Frequently he
was the only member of the senate
who was present when the gavel fell
and the senate was called to order,
and this, notwithstanding that his
home was in Baltimore and he made
the journey to and from Washington
every day He made a virtue of
punctuality, and was rarely behind
time, either at his office or elsewhere.
