| PHILADELPHIA. 
The Bachelors’ bal masque closed 
the social season in the Quaker City 
Sece 
and was the most interesting 
Of its kind ever held. The 
costumes shown at Horticultural 
hall were very elaborate and there 
was a riot of colors. The promen- 
ade was converted into an apple or- 
chard in full bloom. Many of the 
leading society matrons of the city 
served as patronesses and guests 
were present from New York and 
other cities. 
Philadelphia society folk are leav- 
ing town for the Lenten respite, 
Georgia, Jamaica, Palm Beach, Eu- 
rope and Cuba being some of the 
popular vantage points to which 
they are hieing. 
WASHINGTON. 
The President and Mrs. Taft clos- 
ed the official season by a big Army 
and Navy reception, at which there 
‘Were more than 1200 guests. Mrs. 
“Meyer of the Hamilton colony was 
in the receiving line. There was a 
short informal dance. 
Mrs. Herbert D. Ward (Elizabeth 
Stuart Phelps) the famous author- 
ess at Newton Centre, who has made 
the North Shore her summer home 
for so many years, at East Glouces- 
ter, and who wrote many of her 
famous stories there, such as ‘‘ Jack, 
the Fisherman”’ and ‘‘The Madonna 
of the Tubs,’’ is in the capital, the 
guest of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Nel- 
son Page. Her presence is of great 
interest, since Mrs. Ward is one who 
leads a quiet, secluded life, devot- 
ing all her time to her literary work. 
Departures from the capital for 
Lenten rest and change of scene 
are many. The Count and Countess 
de Chambrun are in the south and 
will later go to Mexico. Count von 
Wedel and wife, who were at Bev- 
erly Farms, last season, are cruis- 
ing in the West Indies. The British 
ambassador and Mrs. Bryce have 
gone to Florida. 
Miss Ethel Roosevelt, who has 
been so generously entertained dur- 
ing her Washington sojourn, sailed 
on the 15th with her mother for 
Europe to await the return of ex- 
President Roosevelt and his son, 
Kermit, from Africa. 
— Rear Admiral and Mrs. Cowles, 
Roosevelt family relatives, are in 
Washington, the guests of Miss Ma- 
bel Boardman of the Manchester 
colony.
