Mrs. Ormc Wilson, Youngest
Sister of the Late Colonel
John Jacob Astor Who
Never Recognized His Sec
ond Wife--Mrs. Madeleine
Force Aston.
TIE return to New York OF
Mrs. Astor-as the late
Colonel John Jacob Astor's
drst wife desires TO be called and
her active prepare tons for the com,
ing social season have added com
pliCations 10 an already extremely
complicated social situation Mrs
Astor's determination to take part
again in American fashionable &C.
tiyity YES quite unexpected. After
her divorce she went to England to
live She said that nothing could
ever induce her to return to this
country to stay. She bought house
in London and spent fortune on
its decorations and furnishings. 1t
was to be her permanent home and
there she would bring up her only
daughter, Muriel. as the typical
English girl is brought up.
Is Mrs. Astor's return prompted
because of mother love or ambition,
asks fashionable society. Is it a
fact that, always deeply resentful
OF Colonel Astor's marriage to Mad
eleine Force, she considers herself
the only real Astor widow and has

ingly, forcing all her world so to
accept her? Or does she feel it her
dut to direct personally her son
Vincent's love cruises to some per
fectly satisfactory matrimonial ha-
ven, and so avert any mesalliance
which would make even more COM
pick the Aston family relations?
And in the former event what will

Mrs. Astor No. 2, who was Made

tragedy that made her widow, has
become a mother7
AS all the world knows, Colone!
Astor married Madeleine Force. went
to Europe on a postponed wedding
trip and was drowned on the tt
tan'C. From the day of the mar
riage a great part of New York and
Newport society has ignored the
new Mrs Astor. She is to-day
hardly more than a very rich young
woman, living In the magnificent
mansion on Fifth avenue built by
the late Mrs. William Astor and
her son for their joint use. This

hood won her the friendship Of So
clety She is as much apart from
the fashionable world as though she
mad not married one of its most i'm
portant men. She lives alone in
her superb home, unsought by so
eiety-and not seeking it.
There is no doubt that the most
important factor in the affair is the
returned exile hersel Her attitude
will settle a part of the vexed prob
lem, If she succeeds in breaking off
all communication between Vincent
Aston and his stepmother there is
no manner of doubt that society will
continue its present policy of neglect
ing the young widow.
Many Of Mrs. Astor's friends say
that this is her sole reason for re-
turning to New York One promi-
nent matron says that Mrs Astor
does not intend to let the young
widow and her family carry things
with a high hand: that Vincent is
not to be allowed to be on friendly
terms with the new connections
brought into the family by his
fathers second marriage that he is
TO be stranger to his baby step
brother
This" said the matron. is Ava's
sole reason for coming back. and
very good reason, too" she finished
But an equally important matron
SAYS that mother love is the reason
for the return.
AVA" says this matron, sis devoted
to Vincent and when he appealed to
her TO come and assume charge Of
his home she gave up her most cher
ished plans 1t Is mother love that
brings her back. Why, Ava might
marry into the English nobility. She
is on the most friendly terms with
the Court Circle, even Queen Mary
has singled her out for attention.
and no American has more valu-
able position in London. But for
Vincent's sake she gives all this up.
Only mother love could make such
sacrifice"
On the contrary, several Of the
women who have known Mrs. Aston
for many years say that mother love
was never her strong point and that
it has nothing to do with her re-
turn. They call attention to the fact
that she gave Vincent to his father
at the time of the divorce ard made
no effort to hold him.
Ava" say these critics, is not
guided by mother love, but by social
ambition She has never given up
her right to use the name of Astor
and calls herself either Mrs. Aston
or Mrs. John Aston She has abso
lutely refused to add her maiden
name as so many prominent divorces
have done This shows clearly that
she realizes the social value of her
late husbands name and family and
does not mean to give this adYan-
tage to her successor. 1t is social
ambition pure and simple, that
made Ava come back"
Who shall decide when society
disagrees? Whatever Mrs Astor
reasons, the fact is that she is here
and that she will be much in the
public eye all Winter BY virtue OF
her beauty her family and her
wealth, she will naturally assume
her oid-time position in society. She
