fRv Cable To- The Tribune
London. June l3-The presence of The"-
dorc Roosevelt is mildly exciting TO Amer
icans lust now. with Ascot running him a
close second. Everybody il wondering
how and in what direction Colonel Roose-
volt will break out during his visil' as
the memory of his strenuous advice to
tho British nation about governing Egypt
is still fresh in all minds.
Americans are clamoring for tickets 10
the ROYAL Geographical Society's lecture
on Tuesday night and wondering what
the Colonel will say to the King when
they meet again.
Except for big society affairs like Ascot
and the horse show. Londons functions
appeal little to Americans this season.
Most of them are passing through Lon
don on their way TO the Continent or re-
turning from the Continent and are unanx-
ions to enter the social whirl here. They
prefer the informaity of smaller dinners
and dances, such as those given by the
Duchess of Marlborough, the Duchess Oh
Roxburghe. Mrs. John Aston, Mrs. Cecil
Bingham, Mrs. Anthony Drexel and Lady
Maidstone.
At the Centenary Ball.
All Americans of social position visited
the horse show and Ascot and also attend
ed the peace centenary ball on Wednes-
day. the success OF which was largely due
TO Mrs. John Astor. Her group represent
ing the states of the Union was dressed so
as to form one glorious harmony OF color
to typify the harmony that exists and mas
/ existed for one hundred years In America
with but one brief interval. From De-
ginning to end the pageant told the story
of the making of America almost as
clearly as in a book, but much more
strikingly and picturesquely. Every de-
tail had been thought out and carried out
with consummate care, labor and patience.
Even in the music which mad been spe-
cially written the idea OF correctly tell
ing the story was scrupulously observed.
The costumes of the Indians, who led
. the DIOCtSSlOlii "tIt NhSNS''S' A~''
reproduction was due to Mrs Hwfa Will
Jams, and it could be seen that great ef-
forts had been made to attain historical
accuracy and perfection of detail in the
highly decorative dress of each tribe
