Tharo is vorjr little of it, and P5l-- . thnt Uttlo Is a mild social riprlo without much KlP of tho fostlvo element. Nobodr knows, orcaias Mfcft to say, whr oftlclal aoclotjr did cot rcvivo Into Hjif ' ear life n'tor Lent. If It overtook Its ouo from Ha1 thoWhlto House, one might suppose thoset-Hs- k TOd autot tliero hnd its Influence on othor Bl honsos. But society in Washington does cot mil, follow tho Whlto House. It coos Its own salt, Uf-- - faowQTor tho whlto llouso am (to, in social on-- $ ' tortolnmenU. People are bceianlng to talk Hjp about tho absurd fashion of crowding erory-f!- ,. (hlnc into h few weeks of whirl and sensoless BR'Hifrue, find tlion suddenly comlae to a Bftff ..dead stand Htlll, ns though it was all K& (talo and f unprofitable, and a "hollow, Hnt hollow form." The few hundred tens, R moro or loss, and as many dinners, that bbK&t Wro crowded into tho sooson until they a positive terror,! would now And a plaoo, Bti And proro a ploasuro to refreshed and oxpoo-m;- "r tant society. Hut thor bavo been and eono, HE' and havo passed into the hurly-burl- y of tho Hp, social rush, and tlioro is nothing left of them Hgl'Li except a worn and tired memory. Of courso Ms tlie time must como, and it cannot como too BpHv soon, when things will be carried alone through Htf$ 'throe months instead of being squoozod into wLvm Bbc weofca. Teas will bo rolcgntcd to tho Enstor Ufci . Mason, and dinners will keop thorn compnny. HFf vnth this happy reform neither tho cntortnln-HJ- " are nor tho entortalnmcnts would give out, and t '"aoolftl life would bo a ploasuro rather than a Bkpatntul duty, as much of it is now. H) Tho closest approach to social eayety this Wfch week woro tho "paper chaso," on Monday, K. ', .when sovoral riders woro thrown and badly In-- iured, and Mrs. Whltnoy's company on Tues- -' .doy, to hear George Iliddlo read, and ntterward $L "" cat strowborrios and cream. The paper chase . was intended to bo a gay ride and drive party. f' ' That it turned out to bo anything but jolly was H the misfortune, and not tho fault, of tho ridom. Hk& It was the first of the soason, and the chapter W' of accidents do not commend tho riding school Hh whore sonio of the riders havo been in training MsS through tho winter. Mr. Yow, of tho Chlnose Bw Legation, wao has boon a pupil at tho school, E i mado his ddbut as nn American norsoman at B-5- tho chaso. As ho cannot don the American Ml" , hunting dross, ho simply tucked his silk trou-- l sere into white leggings, and with his llovring SMi Clue silk skirts woro a ruby, velvet tunic. It M''j'- cannot be said, however, that this ugree-B- ", able Oriental is as picturesque a flg-ar- w pro on horseback an ho is on foot. mWl i Wr. Tow did not trine with fate by the reckless 2$, V effort to bo In at tho finish. On the contrary. mLt: hlmuelr from the mishaps befalling several of V ' hl colleagues, who woro carrlod homo lator. B& Becrotary Whitnoy, Mr. Tompkins, nnd Mr. 1 Itvdor woro among tho dlsablod. though all ?,?'. three aro accomplished horsemen. Hut they Mv'" ) were thrown in spite of their skill and experi-)A6-cne- f. The ladies fared mueli better, and only hsT one was rescuod from a runaway horso. But ih;that one just escaped what might havo been a f 'Tatiu aoeloent. 1Ibs Mary McCulloch, tho EjL dnughtor of McCulloch, nnd 4 Miss Ktliol Chaso Upraeue were araonr the B'ii ' finest riders. They came in together, a closo PA. sooondto Iloprosontntlve Henry Cabot Ledge, Mwjf , the winner, when Mr. I.odgo rodo home in B7 triumph ho was arrested at his own door by ,i tho Hergeant-at-Arm- s of tho House, who enr- - B riodhlmoIT to the Capitol a prisoner to tho -- p deadlock. Of course Mr. Lodge appreciated WtS the fact that the law was pleased to defer his i arrest until ho lmd hnd his hunt and won the K) prize. Tho fashionable world was well ropre- - K' eented in carriages. The Coreans were out in Kiv, Rorgeous silks, and there were Kastor bonnets Hi in plenty to brighten the spring landscape K with colors. Tho Prosldeat's wlfo was ' by Miss Wlllartl. nnd bestowed the mvc' prizes, scarfplns of horseshoe fashion. E. It had been suggested that un ambulnnco KS ehould follow paper hunts hnrenitor, to bo in vj readiness for tho iniurod. When the Society &?, fortherrovcntlonof Cruelty to Animals Intor- - O; posed in bokalf of the solitniy Washington fox, mtt b few years ago, that put an end to tho fox Kj hunt. Mr.Qroyer. Secretary of tho ltussinnLo- - KJ, sation there, originated the paper hunt, or nt Rt least Introduced it to ofllolol society. Thesov- - p eral hunts last soason weroery happy affairs Hftr and freo from accidents. It may bo nald of Mr. g.V Grecer that he Is by all odds tho clcvor Ho? Toung man of tho diplomatic corps. He !?? Is also very rich, and fow of the Kv jo-ud- diplomats have money. He is fond Hjy of social Iifo, and Is tho acknowledged lender B. among the young foreigners, and naturally he ts1 U regarded as a good follow. He is liked by ' young men and much admired by young K?' Women. But. apparently, his head is not turn- - mfc?: od by tbo liking nt tho men nor hto heart Kly" touched by tho admiration of the women. It ftp Is snld that some of the foreign Secretaries add til to their small incomes by lottery invetmont.s. ?! Tho sums aro small, but even small favors aro mk thankfully received byn man in needof money. fw. One prominent and popular dlplomut, whore ii-- appearance Indicates a luxurious life, was bt1 made happy n few weeks ago by drawing a B" $600 prize. Ho Immediately invested in more KT tickets. And so they go on, sometimes lucky, ,;.' and often unlucky. wi Mrs. Whitnoy, who seoms novor so happy ns Ecxt when giving plonsiiro to other, gave a groat KS deal of plonsure to tho company she bad asked to hear George Blddlo road on Tuesday. Tho K beautiful ballroom was tho scene of tho rend- - lng. and it had the added beauty and sweet- - Whri nessof lilies placed horo and there in axes. Kff Of all Mr. Kiddie's selections. " Boston Fuds" Bt: Wlls most appreciated, as coming home to 'J. Washington people. In the Boston Brain Club WS&; meeting, taken off by tho cleor reader, tho A. portraits could havo been palnteil In Wash- - KiM lngton, so true were they to certain would-b- e met loshionublo literary nonplo here. Next Tues- - K, day Mrs. Whitney will give a muslcalo. Joseffy p- Is to bo ono of the portoriners. :. Tho ongngoment of tho British Minister's see- - ;.-- ond daughter. Miss Flora West, and Gabriel H.' fialonson, third Secretary of the French Loan- - ms tlon. was nnnounced this week. MIbs Flora v West is about Tl, but her slight figure and kX somewhat shy manner glie hor the appoaranco Eg of being moro youthful than hor younger sister, kIi who is two years her junior. She is n medium m)l; blonde, and, whllo she hivs not the fasclnntins mEJS beauty of her eldor film or. Miss Victoria West, Hg? eho is noverthclnss nn attractive young woman, B?v with flno musical talent. Mr. Salanfiou belongs KiV to a n 1'iench fumily under tho re- - Kf' public, and is ono of two brothers to slinro mtA' equally a conMderablo fortune, amassed by ';. their fathor. Ho has bocn In tho dlplomntio mri'i gervlco soma time, and camo from tbo f'V French Legation In Chili to Wushlng- - Wtt" ton. He spent hist summer at New- - mfi, port ond camo horo in tbo autumn. Ho mei, Is 29 yoara of ago, with n dark, fresh complox- - mm Ion. and, liko most Frenchmen, is of small mMa ataturo. The young couplo mot for tho first K tlmo last Novomber. and whllo It may not have , boon a case of love at first sight, the young m?jr man's dovotion began very soon niter the first mi meeting. Mr. Hnlsnson was called home a few weeks ago by the Illness of bis mother. who diod S boforo nl arrival. The III bealth'of his father de- - KYi tains htm In Paris, and. consequently, the wed- - mfcs ding will tuke plnen there in Juno. Tho bride 1 and her slaters will snll for Franco on the 21st, KS andgodlroottol'iirlsto proparo the trousseau mFA and make the arrangements for the woddlng. Bi The British Minister will follow n month later, v. joining his daughtors In Farls, and. of course, K will give tho bride away. It will bo n chureh K wedding, and as tho couplo ure of tbo tamo fc, faith, tho ceremony will be In the Cathollo ,.' Church. But tho mourning of Mr. Salansoii will mM makotbowoddlnguvory aulet cororaony. The mil marringe is highly approved by the two fami- - fcj. lies. Miss West takes a delightful interest in K? her suitor's future, and is the happy adviser, it W&' not, In fact, supervisor, of all plans relating to tf too marriage. Woro It not for the mourning K. of the groom's family, sho would give her slstor raff agayand pretty woddlng. As It is, sho declares Ki frankly: I shall bilng nothing back from ' ' Paris this tlmo for myself. I want to spend all m, ! my monoy for Flora." Tho married pair nro Kb likely to nnss the iiinmor abroad. But after K? ,the wedding the Minister and hlstwodnugh- - m'T tors will go to London for n hi let ltlt. nnd then K return to this country, going direct to Beverly, Was?,, where tliey iiuvo taken a uuttaco for the er summer and nutiimu. m& Senator andtilrs.

Km Trntti la tbo Itepert that the Creat llorie ta l.nuae. A morning no wapaper printed a sensational report yesterday that Hanover hod beon sent to tho stable Inn "groggy condition" aftor being warmed up a bit on Thursday, nnd that, In the language of tho trainer, " Hanovor wns lnmo again." Reports to the samo effect having ap- peared in Wostorn papers, n Son rcportor visit- ed Sheepshoad Bay for tho purposo of ascer- taining tho rcnl condition of the great rnco horse. Tralnors F'rank McCabe, Matt Byrnos, Buporintondont Frank Clark, and othor men connected with racing stables nt the Bay wore standing on the track In front of the grand stand looking at dotnehments of horses from the Dwyer, Hnggln, and othor Btablos taking their afternoon oxerclso. Aftor croettng tho reporter nnd reading the clipping giving an account of Hanover's lame- ness, Frank McCnbe, trainer of Henovor, looked up with a smilo on his face, remarking: "I am happy to say that tho horso is not a bit lame. He Is in as good condition as ho ovor was." "You aro certain that he has shown no symptom of lameness." " Yes: ho is ns sound as he ever was." Then tho rsportor remembered that last spring Hnnovor's feot and legs wero perfect. McCobo snld, further, that Hanover had run half a milo in the morning in 55 seconds, add- ing: "Mr. Clark will tell you how the horse Is." Mr. Clark said that ho bad seen Hanover run the half In 55 seconds, and that tho horso was perfectly sound and froo from any signs of lameness. Tho son of Hindoo Is really In flnor condition than when ho and his stable companions were descrlbod in Tub Sun in the early part of the wlntor. At that timo he had lully recovered from his bruising enmpaign of last year, and looked strong and active enough to leap over his stable. Ho nnd Ben AH are at present the equine giants of tho seashore. Ben All wns prnuclng along with his fore legs bandaged in rod flannel, and it was all his rider could do to kocp tho horse from brushing up against tho spectators who watched his movements from tno Inner sido of tho track. Ben All and Guenn ran a mile the othor day in 1 :4SK, which is ex- cellent tlmo for the wet and somewhat heavy truck. Tho division of tho Brooklyn stable that was being exorcised in thonfturnoon was mado up of a dozen strapping Young Phil Dwyer, who visits tho track ovory Friday and remains ovor Suturday, was riding lion, a full brotlior of Lois. Tho colt is nearly tbo size of Hanover. Ho is a clinker and full of run. Young Phil lost control of him tho othor day. and soon know what top speed meant. Super- intendent Clark says tho lad's lace was white as mnrblo when the thoroughbred was brought to n standstill. McLaughlin visits the track about 7 o'clock nch morning, nnd takes Kingston and Tea Tray out for tholr constitutional spins. Jimmy is too heavy as yet to ride the Little Nowmeyor has taken n groat fanoy to Hanover, while tho famous chestnut roeinro-ente- s, ond likes to have the boy on his back. They say that if the Jud was to glvo Hanover hit, head the horso would ibroak the record in his springvork. McLaughlin is reducing his weight by long walks in sweaters and dally Itu&slun baths. Garrison was at tho track yesterday, but ho did not rido. Ho has gained threo pounds siuco his roturn from California, nnd now woigbs 112 pounds. Ho will go into tho re- ducing process this wook, nnd then begin in earnest to test tho quality of Mr. Hugging race borsod. Matt Byrnes said that tho consignment of 100 horses from Mr. Haggln's farm Tn California, to be sold in Now York In June, Includes thor- oughbreds of all ages, many of which havo never hnd a saddle on. so noDody knows what they can do, but they all belong to racing fami- lies. While discussing the merits of tho racers now training at tho track, Mr. B. Kahn's ld horse Saxony, by Saxon, dam was mentioned as u probable dark ono lor the Brooklyn Handicap, for which race bis owner says he will start. Mr. McDonnld's rtnng is In good form, nnd so are Mr. Shlelds's horses. There is not a sick horso at the track. Nono of tho racers will be sent to Washington or Baltimore. They will muko their first spring nt tbo Brooklyn Jockey Club's meotlng, which begins May 15. JlMoclatloa .Football. The final gamo for tho American Football Association cup was played jn tho O. N.

Tho latter came out easily victorious by a scoro of 5 goals to 1, In tho first half of tlmo tho Alma tonm had to play against a strong wind, and, thanks to the splondid dotence of Fagln and McDonald, only lost Ono goal. In the secoml half tho wind foil, and tho Hovers thowed their superior passing nnd staying powers and demoralized their op- ponents. The game ended In 5 goals for Fall lilvor nnd 1 for the Almus.

It was too cold for flno play, and whon tho fifth inning hnd ended tho game came to an end.

It Is about n clour and succinct a lettor at any om could write. I think that Mr. Ward is roosonnblo and dispassionate Ilo is cortalnly worth the money he asks, for ho Is tho ublust nnd must sclontillo and constant woiker in the toum, Thoro are hundreds of men in Wall btroot who uo tip to tho l'olo grounds, not so mui'h to boo Mr, Kecfo nnd Mr. Welch pitch. Mr. Connor bat, and Mr. Ewlnu dream on third, when he oucht to bo behind tho bnt, us to see Mr. Wnrd measure tho Hold, lilt scien- tifically, nick up hot ones, drive them to llrnt, and steal basts. Tho mnnnKeruent will mnko tho hlcceet mUtako of Its Hie if Wurd is forcod to Ho (ldio this yoar.

Millet In tho artistic, Mr. Uooth in the histrionic, nnd Mr. Hnu'n nnd Mr. Gould in tho financial, that .Sir. John Ward is in tho bat-an- d balllstlo menu. "Mr. Day says that Mr, Ward's lotter wns en- tirely uncnll"d for thnt the New York club neermKdeabldforsymiintliytothopubllc, Mr. Day certainly made a bid for sympathy when he had it clven out that efforts were belne made to bulldoe him into uivlnc enormous salaries to Word, Keofo, nnd Brown. There wasnethlns forward to do but to write that lotter. Mr. Dny says that Ward csts more salnry now than any othor short stop in tl.u ceuntry. Why shouldn't ho ? Ilo in the best shortstop in the country, When Ward recelwd $'1.'20() oluht years nco as pltchor ot the Cllnnts, he didn't work so hnrd, nor no beautifully, us lie works now. And what n rollnlile limn he isl lie is neer so loadvd with boor that he cannot run, and slop, mid bat, nnd nrmie. It nood lie.tlntf lllcmlly. It is simply ridiculous to nsscrt tluit Welch. n, Connor, or Ewlnuiniust nnaluablens Ward, or that llntfleld cun 1111 Ward's position.

Ward, tn an Interview with The Bun reportor yesterday, said; "Ihaveboen acousod of rushing Into print, but it should be remombcrod thnt I was not the first to bring this mutter boforo tho public. At the time of my lirst Interview t ith Mr. !My, when I found tliero wns iv illfferenro between us, I told hlin thnt I would nut h Interviewed by any ono, in I considered It n nuitfr of prl-ya- business bciwiuii tho club nnd inysolf, uud ho nxprefcKod his approval.

I camo hero y nnd ollorcd my services to tho Now York Club because I know they wore short-hande- mid I wanted to show them tliero was no personal feeling on my part, nnd thnt I was not Bufforlne from a cose of 'sore head.' " ThnSporfino Times, in speaking of tho Wnrd mnttor editorially, says: "Ono of tho many Ills to which ball players nro prono is known as 'on-nll- li.ta.l An n Mil. lllnw n., It n 1.a !. clnnlnr of their professional careor, whon thoy aro blossoming forth as stars in the base ball llrmaraent. Others are afflicted later on, but it isarnrothlng for an knight of tho ball and bat to bo attacked with the malndy. Thoro is, howovor, a case on rec- ord, and it is that of John Montgomery Ward, lawyer, Ilelder. baseman, and present short stop of tho Now York Club. President of the Base Ball Brotherhood, and last, but not loast, husband of Helen Dauvray, the n actress. "Mr. Ward's 'swellod head 'manifests ltsolf by his deslro nt all times to pose befero the public. His latest adventure in thnt respect was n lettor which npneared in tho Now York dallies last week. A few days aeo when asked his terms he snld ho would not piny for his old waces, but asked for the largest salary ever paid a baso ball player, namely, tS.OOOfor seven months' work, 'ihink ot it. kind roader. a salary larger in proportion than thnt of tho of tho United Stntes. Mr. Ward should not bo criticised for making the de- mand, lf ho can get what he asks well nnd good. Tho porting limes is in favor of good wages for ball playors, and if the short stop of the fitunta thinks that his services are worth the flguro he names he Is jus tilled in making the domnnd. Thnt, however. Is a to he settled betwoon tbe Now York lub and Mr. Ward, tho parties Involved, but when Mr. Word rushes into the publlo prints nnd trios to obtnln tho sympathy of tho publlo by devices novor bofore resorted to by a bull player ho makes a sad mistake. Tho New York Club has dealt very leniently with Mr. Ward, aud. in fact, all of its players. The manage- ment is, by long odds, the most generous in the country In its dealings with ball players, and it comes with poor grace from Mr. Ward tc try und belittle the officers. " Lot us hastily review Mr. Ward's careor as a member of the NewYerk team.

Last year ho showed n marked Im- provement, nnd his work In the short field was ns linens hnsoer been witnessed. His batting, too, was of a very good character. What was tho result ? He mado himself obnoxious to tho othor members of the club by his arbitrary manners, and whon he was not allowod to assume tho captaincy nnd management com- bined, 11 in Ansou, he gnvo up his position as enptnin whon tho club most needed his ser- vices.

Ho was a failure in all tin eo positions, but ot tho expense of many games ho was retained as short stop until ho Hnally mnstered tho position. Ab soon as ho made his mark there, not consldoring for a moment thnt ho was paid an enormous salary as an apprentice, ho modestly asks for the lurgest salary ovor paid a " Lottnr writing Is not Mr. Ward's forto, and the soonor he realizes this fact, tho hotter.

The management never hae acted as though they wanted the pennant to Boat here, but tn upend as little money na possible, so as their profits could be large, because the game will bo patronized anyhow.

llorie ta l.nuae.A morning no wapaper printed a sensational

report yesterday that Hanover hod beon sentto tho stable Inn "groggy condition" aftor beingwarmed up a bit on Thursday, nnd that, In thelanguage of tho trainer, " Hanovor wns lnmoagain." Reports to the samo effect having ap-peared in Wostorn papers, n Son rcportor visit-ed Sheepshoad Bay for tho purposo of ascer-taining tho rcnl condition of the great rncohorse. Tralnors F'rank McCabe, Matt Byrnos,Buporintondont Frank Clark, and othor menconnected with racing stables nt the Bay worestanding on the track In front of the grandstand looking at dotnehments of horses fromthe Dwyer, Hnggln, and othor Btablos takingtheir afternoon oxerclso.

Aftor croettng tho reporter nnd reading theclipping giving an account of Hanover's lame-ness, Frank McCnbe, trainer of Henovor,looked up with a smilo on his face, remarking:"I am happy to say that tho horso is not a bitlame. He Is in as good condition as ho ovorwas."

"You aro certain that he has shown nosymptom of lameness."

" Yes: ho is ns sound as he ever was."Then tho rsportor remembered that last

spring Hnnovor's feot and legs wero perfect.McCobo snld, further, that Hanover had run

half a milo in the morning in 55 seconds, add-ing: "Mr. Clark will tell you how the horse Is."

Mr. Clark said that ho bad seen Hanover runthe half In 55 seconds, and that tho horso wasperfectly sound and froo from any signs oflameness.

Tho son of Hindoo Is really In flnor conditionthan when ho and his stable companions weredescrlbod in Tub Sun in the early part of thewlntor. At that timo he had lully recoveredfrom his bruising enmpaign of last year, andlooked strong and active enough to leap overhis stable. Ho nnd Ben AH are at present theequine giants of tho seashore. Ben All wnsprnuclng along with his fore legs bandaged inrod flannel, and it was all his rider could do tokocp tho horse from brushing up against thospectators who watched his movements fromtno Inner sido of tho track. Ben All and Guennran a mile the othor day in 1 :4SK, which is ex-cellent tlmo for the wet and somewhat heavytruck.

Tho colt is nearly tbo sizeof Hanover. Ho is a clinker and full of run.Young Phil lost control of him tho othor day.and soon know what top speed meant. Super-intendent Clark says tho lad's lace was whiteas mnrblo when the thoroughbred was broughtto n standstill.

Garrison was at tho track yesterday, but hodid not rido. Ho has gained threo poundssiuco his roturn from California, nnd nowwoigbs 112 pounds. Ho will go into tho re-ducing process this wook, nnd then begin inearnest to test tho quality of Mr. Hugging raceborsod.

Matt Byrnes said that tho consignment of 100horses from Mr. Haggln's farm Tn California,to be sold in Now York In June, Includes thor-oughbreds of all ages, many of which havonever hnd a saddle on. so noDody knows whatthey can do, but they all belong to racing fami-lies.

when Mr. Word rushes into the publlo printsnnd trios to obtnln tho sympathy of tho publloby devices novor bofore resorted to by a bullplayer ho makes a sad mistake. Tho New YorkClub has dealt very leniently with Mr. Ward,aud. in fact, all of its players.

Ue maythink the publlo can be hoodwinked, bnt they can't:tb-- are Judges of ball playing, and know the value ofWard's services to any nine. The management neverhae acted as though they wanted the pennant to Boathere, but tn upend as little money na possible, so astheir profits could be large, because the game will bopatronized anyhow. Look at ihe other clues whenplayers wish to bo relessed. Stated terms are offered,ami. If arreenble. transfer made. But not so with pay.Uhv?
