n RAY and June have broken their
NH previous records OF many years
Il" standing. and the unprecedent-
edly pleasant cool weather, ex-
cept for a very few days, has in
duced society 10 remain in town longer,
much longer than is its won't. The de-
tanning OF the Congress into the early
summer always makes much difference
IN the number Of wives, daughters, moth
ers, and sisters staying In the shadow
Of the dome Of the Capitol, but when the
first really hot week is ended they gen.
orally find themselves many miles from
Washington, for they have formed the
habit Of believing Washington TO be the
hottest place they know Of. And it is a
habit, or maybe a fallacy. The great
colony Of wealthy residents Of Washing
ton are only just discovering the beauties
and attractions Of the suburbs, and are
now beginning to utilize them for spring
and autumn homes, IL not winter ones.
All who have these may now be found
!n them, and the delights they find are
too many to name. One is the wild fow-
ers, in which the country round about
Washington is peculiarly rich.
This week will see a general breaking
up, for those who are not going to their
summer homes, or perhaps on their sum
mer jaunts Of travel, viii be on for the
conventions, one or both. Tomorrow
will mark the departure Of Representa-
tive and Mrs. Longworth for New York,
for the wedding Of Miss Ide and Mr.

Will act as one Of the ushers. They
o will 60 on to Chicago for the conven-
ton, in which Mrs. Longworth is espe-
cially and actively interested. The Cock
rams and the Longworths have a par
ticular tie, as the courtshfps Of the two
couples were laid among the same scenes
and on the same occasion, when the
four were in the party who journeyed to
the Philippines and back with President
Taft when he was Secretary of War.
Mrs. Longworth is taking as keen an
interest In politics as a woman can DOS
sibly take who does not live in the
States where women vote. And she is
said to be an exceedingly clever poll
tician.
The calendar is not so full of June
, weddings as II usually is This can
hardly be accounted for by the fact that
It Is election year, which seems to be
the excuse for the lack of everything
else.

Miss Gwyneth Hungerford Conger and
