JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Engagement of New York Girl Proves of Interest
to Philadelphians; Alice Goes Jackie One Better.
plans for Restaurant at Sporting Carnival
TUB Oolngs of some New Yorkers havo
n Interest for nis, when Mid New
Yorker8 have visited here and havo rela
tes amotiB s. Now that moy be am
Mcuous, but ns I continue my little tale
,.0u will see the point. First and fore
most.' thero Is Alleen Sedgwick's engage,
ment to James Blncltstone Taylor, Jr.,
,,so ot New "ork, which was announced
in that city yesteiday. Alleen la the
daughter of Mrs. Harry Sedgwick, of
j,w York, nnd until the war lived the
neater part of her life In France and
England. They returned to New York
Wily In the winter of 1916, nnd Alleen
ind her sister Adelaide made their debuts
In tlmt city then. Both of them came
CTer here during that winter to visit Jean
Eallltt, who was a deb here nnd who had
Inonn them In Paris, when she spent
He winter there five years ago studying
puslc,
Alleen attended one of the Assemblies
,nd several private balls while the Bui
litts' guest, and was very much liked by
the Philadelphia men and girls, and has
tfjlted here frequently since then, She
j very pretty, dark and slender, and, of
eoure. her education abroad has been a
great asset In the matter of conversation.
A g:rl wh. ha been abroad for some
jrars can put It all over the others who
tav stuck close to home. The very fact
tt jrolnp .wny from home and having
to rely en oreself, so to speak, Is char-
tcter-bulldlng, don't you think?
Miss Sedgwick has been staying for a
ihort rlmr in Chelsea and returned last
treek to New York. She and her mother
are- living nt the Buckingham at present.
Adelaide, the otheir very pretty daughter,
wiled for England about a month ago
tnd wll nurse In one of the hospitals
thtrf W-T. Eedgwlck died several years
ago. Mra tedgwlck was Miss Adelaide
Bet'cs e daughter ot the late Mr. and
Mrs, Jaipur A. G, Beales. Her mother
wa a daughter of the well-remembered
Eu?f KeJlj, ot New York, who was a
grwit fbwujc'.er and philanthropist.
Jim Taylc. U the youngest of 'he chil
dren of t)' James Blackstone Taylors, ot
3 Park e"nue, New York. (Oh what a
difference l-twccn Park avenue In New
Tork an U avenuo In Phllly! For
tuna'ly for Alleen this is in New York).
He haj gone into the war as an aviator
and is at present stationed at the naval
aeronautic station at Bayshore, 1i. I and,
of course, expects to join our other Ameri
can aviators In Franco very soon. No
datn has been set for the wedding, but I
xp-ct It will take place before he leaves.
f'HB other matter of Interest connected
with a Now Yorker Is the wedding of
Daisy Polk, who Is a cousin of Frank
1'nlk, who married Lily Potter, of this
city, j on lemember, nnd Is now stationed
In Washington, where he Is counselor ot
tlie Amctlean Slate Department. (Some
n Bi.ro that, eh! wot?) Daisy Is neither
a Nmv Yoikcr nor of tho East at all, for
tint matter, for she halls fiom San Fran
c!cn. Perhaps, after nil this preamble,
)ou might like to know who it was that
Talsy marileJ. Well, his name is Marie
Joseph Louis Hoberl do Buyer, and, what
is moic, he is a general In tie French
army. The Polks stand very high in
Washington, I understand, and you re
member when the Hon. Arthur Balfour
was heie their home Was one of the few
private houses in which ho dined. Lily
Totter Polk Is the daughter of the Jimmle
Pullet a. of this city. Her mother was Lily
6ti.rg(s one of the four sisters so Justly
fat.. fa for their good looks and beautiful
figures, and M s Polk has the same stun
r.li.g figure aid dimming poise of man
ner. It Is natuial, therefore, for us to be
Interested In the marriage of this young
American girl and the French general,
hu to a cavalry olflcei'. Tlie wedding
took place ery leccntly In Vitrlmont,
and was witnessed by General Petaln,
commander-in-chief of the French armies,
and a group of other officers.
Madame de Buer before her marriage
had been In charge of the reconstruction
of the village of Vitrlmont, which Mrs.
William H. Crocker, of San Francisco,
ha undertaken to do. She had put the
former Miss Polk In charge of the under
tanii.tr, and I hear she will keep up her
worK tnere.
'OW haven't children sweet little
laeiT Do you lemember my small
-in
frleim Jackie, who went some jeurs ago
to ti.e Do vies and saw the Little Bugle'
crjrlt.t ey' his mother's grave as ho placed
n. nugi- ouncli of daisies theuon, and who
waKentn his mother one morning with
anentrt nls own mother one morning
.vltii trit- consoling remark, "Mother, when
lou cue i shall put fresh flowers on jour
t.Rt him. I think,
She hnil neurit that nil uncle was dead.
"What Is ncad, Mamma?" she asked, and
Mother tried In simple words to express
to her the Christian doctrine of life, death
nd resurrection. And after Alice begged
several times to go to uncle's funeral,
Mother thought maybo the should let the
child see her urtcla and by talking natur
Hy of it. perhaps she would not get the
wrwis horror of death that many children
hava. bin when they returned home and
Alice puckered her tiny features as If
debating someVgreat question, the
mother began to have qualms as to her
decision, and thought she should have
halted until Alice was a bit older, espe
cially when the sturdy youngster did not
at her dinner.
Just before bedtime, however, Alice
temed to have nettled the grave ques
tion which had disturbed the even tenor
her way and climbing into her father's
d, she patted his face and announced
solemnly, "Mother, when Daddy dies,
e'll have him stuffed."
."Why, daughter1" gasped Father,
"yunerals are no good," Alice ex
plained, "Mr. TV had his dog Jack
tutfed and ho lets us go In his library
nd stroke his head, and I want to pet
you, Daddj." Dear little lambs, these lt
tl tots, what would the great, sad. sor
rowful world do without them?

er heard nicer things said
about any two people than havo been
said about Lola and Jack Thayer? I do
think It'sgreatwhen two persons so suited
to each other do fall in love, and Lois Is
so sweet and pretty. As n girl who came
out the same winter with her said to me
recently, "She's such a lady!" Of course
you expect eery one to be a lady, but
