MRS. OLIVER HARTMAN.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2s.-The most
exclusive set OF New 'York's multi.
millionaire Society has Just awakened
to the startling fact that new social
queen is raising her pretty head
above the horizon and that this new
leader who threatens to eclipse all
other aspirants is no other than that.
little Force girl from Brooklyn who
has Just discarded the widows weeds
in which she has mourned for her
husband, Col John Jacob Aston, ever
since the fatal day when he went
donw to his death In the sinking IL
tanic.
In the days when Episcopal clergy
men were refusing to marry Col. As
tor and little Madeline Force because
the colonel had recently been divorced
no one in New York's exclusive set
ever dreamed that the beautiful
Brooklyn girl was destined to over
ride every jealous prejudice and by
sheer charm of manner win fore
most place among the elite even with
out her popularity rich husband at her
side to aid her.
Now, even those who are not count
ed among the friends Of the colonel's
youthful widow admit that she is the
most remarkable parsonage that ever
reached the inner circle of New York
society.
After the death of her husband and
the birth of the heir whom Col. AS
tor did not live to see, Mrs. Aston
lived in seclusion in the Aston palace
at 5th-av. and 65th-st. Few people,
even those on "the inside" knew that
slowly but surely she was securing
herself and her little son-when he
becomes mana place in New York
society, second to none. Now she has
a calling list that includes such
names as these:
