Newport is undoubtedly the social cen ter of the greatest amount of wealth and fashion this month and the summer pleasure sare beginning to fill society time. Riding, driving, bathing, walking tennis, golf and other outdoor sports pleasures are beginning to fill society and the Casino is more popular than ever. Automobiing in the small ma chimes which have become so popular IS a favorite pastime, too, and canoeing IS coming in for a share of interest New York paper prints the following items of Newport affairs:
 ''The return to Newport for the sum mer of Commodore and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, who have Beaulier again, is a notable event in Newport's season. The steam yacht North Star is anchored here, and later on Commodore and Mrs. Van derbilt will give number of important entertainments
 "The return of Count and Countess szechenyi and their children to spend the sumner with Mrs. Vanderbilt at The Breakers makes another interesting fac tor in the gayeties of the Newport sea- son, and it marks their first visit to NeWpOrt since lQelr IldfTld5S. III SolioS ouence there will be many functions given in their honor, especially by Mrs. Vanderbilt, at The Breakers.

 MT. and Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish are set tied at Crossways, which has not been opened for two summers and Newport summer residents gave them hearty welcome home, which made their arrival the signal of number of affairs planned in their honor, including a dinner, which Mir. and Mrs. T. suffern Taller are giving this evening. Crossways never looked more beautiful either by day or night with the electrical effects about the estate"
 One of the most interesting announce ments from London is to the effect that MT. and Mrs. James B. Duke have taken Mrs J. Henry Smiths house in Gros- venor square for year, notes an ex- change This residence is now occupied by MT. and Mrs William Solomon, who have been giving musicales in London much alike to those for which they are noted in New York, their residence, lO2o Fifth avenue being rich in art treasures MT Solomon is well known at the Ma tional Arts club, and is member of the Sons of the Revolution, the Reform and Racquet and Tennis clubs. At the musicale following one of their recent dinner parties the soloists included Mime. Nordioa and Signor Martinelli.
 Mrs. Duke will also be generous in en- tertaining when she takes this house, for though she has achieved social success very quietly, she now has many friends in England Her beauty and cleverness in dress are factors toward popularity. At her country home in New Jersey, her own rooms are snow-white, including even the rugs and the lilies put in vases and her boudoir robes and dinner gowns are a delicate pink. These ideas are part of her personality. Mrs Duke was for merly Mrs Nanine Holt Inman of At lanta, but only in her quiet and leisurely manner does she show the traits of the southerner. Mrs. Duke is well known in the social world of New Orleans. where she has visited on several occasions and several of whose members she has enter tained in her northern home.
