ore of the Presidents duties In the

come Dr.. Otto Wiedfeldt, the Ambas-
sador from Germany, who, with Nine.
Wjedfelds, returned to this country a
President will. of course, be in the ma
tnrs Of social courtesy only, as DR..
Wiedfelds presented his credentials
acme time before returning to Ger
many. The embassy is expected to be
ana Of the most attractive foreign
homes In Washington when the Ambas-
sador and Nine. Wiedfeldt are fully

Furnishings from Essen
Are on Way to America
Ths splendid furnishings of the
Essen estate are now on the way to
America, and once more society will
meet in the large ballroom where
princs Henry of Prussia was enter
sained. 1t was In this ballroom that
The late Baron Won Sternburg when

4 devoid of furnishing. The great por-
traits of the Kaiser and the Kaiserin
which adorned each end of the room,
east and west, have been removed
and every trace Of imperial Germany
has given way to the present plan.
Much Of the glory of the Blue Room
at the White House will be lost when
ii il known that instead Of the bril-
liant gold trimmed court uniform
worn by former ambassadors, DR..
( Wiedfeldt will wear plain evening
dress. The embassy limousine will no
longer bear the imperial coat of arms
and every thing but the simple ele-
gance Of the furnishings of the resi-
dence will bespeak democratic simp1ic-
ity. Mr.. Herman Wiedfeldt, the only
SON Of the ambassador, will take up the
study Of agriculture either at the
University Of Wisconsin or the School
Of Agriculture at Ames, Iowa. He fin
ished his course at the University of
Vienna, and is now twenty-five years

countess Grey of Falloden. AS an

tive bridegroom, it is not more ancient
than that of the bride-elect. 1t Is
