SECRETARIES MAKING
CONFERENCE ARRANGEMENTS.
The secretaries of the emba ssies
and legations are making most of
the arrangements for the confer
ence. as many Of the heads of the
diplomatic missions have not yet
returned to the Capital and some
OF them are not expected back
until some time in October. The
end Of October will ind the corps
ranks about completed, however.
The French Ambassador and Mime.
Jusserand. who went to their home
in France for the summer months,
are expected in October, as are the
Belgian Ambassador. and Baroness
de Cartier. who are also abroad.
The italian Ambassador, Rolandi
Ricci. who Is in Italy, will prob

pearls at the neck, thin white veil

eyes, animation. a low nervous
laugh-and those epigrams-spring-
ing at you from the most unexpect-
ed places in the conversation We
were afraid and yet fascinated. We
listened, tried to think Of some
thing clever to say, couldn't, and
listened some more. Her
observations Of Washington society
are scarcely less amusing than her
stories of English literary person
ages. We shall be amused to read
her autobiography, for It should
be scarcely less amazing than her
mothers. Her short stories are al
ready appearing hither and yon in
this country. They are spicy and
entertaining, and underneath very
nearly every one Of them there is
the Asquith bite! Was it of Eliz-
abeth Asquith that some one said,
More books have been dedicated to
her than to any other woman in
England?' Or are we mixing her
