on his return he brought Nine.

THE announcement Of the ap.
poirtment of Jonkheer de
Graeff put a duietus on certain
rumors which had cropped up
from time to time--one INSISTING
the good looking Jonkheer de
Beaufort, who was charge DAT.
faires here for so long, and VINO
is now Netherlands minister TO
Greece, was to come back here
and the other to the effect that
the present charge d'affaires, Dr..
J. B. Hubrecht was to be promoted
to ministerial rank and assigned
to Washington.
The latter seemed improbable on
its face, for a diplomat is almost
always transferred when given
minister's portfolio and besides
Washington Is too important
post to fall to the lot Of an envoy
SO newly risen from the ranks.
The same thing applies in some
degree to the cnse Of Jonkheer de
Beaufort, and altogether II would
seem that in both instances the
wish was father to the thought.
The Hubrechts, by the way. are
staying on through the autumn
at Mt. Eagle; the historic, old
place near Alexandria, which they
have occupied for the summer
months. They have a new little
daughter. q month or so old, and
the baby is thriving 50 in her pres.

bring her into town

the Polish charge d'affaires, tells
me that she knows Mime. wroblew-

is young and pretty and gay and
promises to be a genuine acqulsi.

So far no one seems to know
when the new Polish envoy is t.
arrive. In fact. the Kwapis.
zewskas haven't yet had definite
word as to when the retiring
Minister and Princess yLubomirska
are sailing. although they are ex.
pected momentariiy. 1t does seem
too bad that they are not coming
back to stay. for they were very
popular with their colleagues Of
the diplomatic corps and their a..
sociates In Washington while the
minister was on duty here. True
aristocrats--each 10 descended
from long line of Poiish princes--
they live up to the motto "nobiesss
