JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Tfancy Wynne Chats About Several Weddings Miss Gillette to
, Wed Mr. Brown Mrs. Barklie to Entertain Admiral
and Mrs. Grayson and Mrs. Stcttinius
pro:
you hear that Edith Cllllette U to
married on October 5. a Saturday?
Saturday is a sort of nice tiny to choose,
Jsn't It? For, according to the old vhjme,
"Saturday, no day at nil." and so you have
no superstitions tn think about. Anyhow
na I was savins, it's a nice day to choose.
Edith Is a perfect beauty. I think, and
you probably agree with me. She hud the
loveliest soft ejes and such pretty h.ilr
and a perfectly lovely expression. f
The lucky man In this marriage Is Pick
Brown, more disnlftedly known as Richard
P. Brown, and the wedding is to take place
nt 8 o'clock in the evening in Calvary
Church, Germantown.
"llTOnD came esterday that .Mice
' Gnynne, of New York, and Lieuten
ant Horace R. R Allen were married In
Paris on August 10. You know. Alice
Gwynne Is the daughter of the lnte Kdwnrd
Gwynne. of New York, and a niece of Mrs.
Cornelius Vanderbilt, of New York and
Newport. The interestiiiK bit to t'hllatlel
phlans Is the fact that Major TJ.ircIuy War
burton was ono of the witnesses, for, jou
see, even If you arc an American in France,
you have n civil ceremony and you have
to have regular witnesses, and Major Wnr
faurton was one and Major Lydls, of New
York, was another for Lieutenant Allen,
and Miss Gwynne had Mr. (leoi-Re Munroe
and Harry Lehr as her witnesses. Hurry
Lehr having married one or the Dicxcls,
a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
DreJtel, of this eit . Is an interesting per
sonality to Phlladclphlans. aside from his
famous dinners and remaikable costumes.
He Is a Balttinorean, but has lived piln
clpally in New York and is now in France
engaged In war work. The 1 elisions wed
ding ceremony for Lieutenant Allen and
his bride followed the cl il one and look
place in the American Church of the Holy
Trinity, In Paris.

home thl3 week and will open her
house in Wayne for three weeks. She Is
going to spend the winter In Ros-ton. to
be near Major Barklie, who is stationed at
Camp Aycr. But, ou s.ee, Mis. ISarklio'
promised to f,p tho Cafeteria of tlio Horse
Show through, and so she lb solnn to do 'It
and has opened her hoiis'. an 1 will have
meetings of committees and various
preparations there until afte.' the .show
next week. Admiral Caroy C.rajsun and
his wife, 'and Mrs. Kdwnrd Stettinius and
her daughter, of Washington, are comlnsj
up to stay with Mrs. ITvrkllo as her guests
over the show. Admiral Grayson Is the
President's doctor, you know. I think
Mrs. Barklie is an awfullv good simit to
go to bo much trouble tn keep lipr word
and stand by her friends In this work.
For you would" not blame her in wartimes
if she did not come on when- she had a
perfectly good excuse not to, owing to her
hu&band's change of camp. But she is a
good sport, and that's one reason why
every one likes her so much. She can al
ways be rolled upon, and she's simple and
unassuming and charming and does a vast
amount of work.
MRS. B.S

IARCLAY WAItBl'RTON will
decidedly interesting luncheon
at the Rita tomorrow for Floyd Gibbons,
the American war correspondent, who lost
an eye "over there" when rushing to the
assistance of .Major Berry, when the latter
was hit during tirr charge of June 4 at
Chateau Thierry. Some hentence! '. ! lie

Interesting. Major Geneial Waller, V. S.

TTIOUR patriotic little girls out In Uer-
mantown gae a fair iccently on the
lawn of Doctor Rhoad's house, on School
lane, for the Red Cross. They weie Mil
dred and Klizabeth Gray, Frances Felin
and Grade Pittleld. They sold paper dolls,
and Ice cream cones, candy and cake, and
there were also grab-bags, which are al
ways exciting. The proceeds amounted to
$21, and the young workers handed it all
pver to the Red Cross.
Little Grade Pitfleld Is very specially
Interested in the soldiers now, for Isn't
her brother-in-law, Sergeant Jacob Rlegel,
Jr., one? Of course he is and he's some
brother-in-law, let me tell ou. So, of
course, she's working even harder to help
jthe soldiers.
J' T0 YOU feel about caterpillars as I do?
L J If you do, jou'io mtjflty glad thit the
summer Is fast coming to a close, and thai
you won't have to meet tbem across your
path or have to walk out In the middle
Of the street, so that by no possibility of
a chance could one drop on you. Would
that the loathing could be overcome, but
It can't. We all have our pet antipathies.
They say Napoleon had h fear of cats.
What a pity his enemies did not know It
eooner? It might have saved an awful
lot of bloodshed.
Just think, If the Duke of Wellington
had just sent a lot of cats Into tho front
line trenches. Why, Napoleon would have
thrown his gun away and fled, and the
army, seeing their chief fleeing, would have
"fleed," too. But to return to caterpillars,
though I'd like to forget them.
How would you feel to hear what I over
beard last Monday, when two little lambs
were comlns home from school. They
- were dragging their books In their
mall bags and , loitering along. One
(topped suddenly and planted her foot
firmly on the ground, while her mouth as
sumed a gterii expression. "What you
doln't Klizabeth?" asked her companion.
"Only thtepptng on a 'caterplllow,' " replied
lrV Klizabeth, as she walked pn unconcernedly,

X said David, taking another Inn draught
from the FaUtaltlnn "plHtol" ami i, turning
It to Hen an.
"Perhaps," replird th fienenil Indiffeient
to outside matters until lie had nninhed his
part of the pi escribed reieniunv "And
ben- we are." he added, with a Rich of con
tentment, "i-aluting Panama and an Ameri
lan company, 'vlth an ninij of volume er.
bent on .licking the Yankees, cunihig down
upon us."
"Are von -ure?" '
"Caramba ! In Honda thev t-ald these
volunteers started from Bogota thne d.ii
ago They are due here now "
"Wo must meet tbem." said David, upon
whom the General's "pistol" had not failed
to score.
"Wait a moment! As Miranda would siv,
theFe peons are canaille and tin re is no
rooom for a meeting."
Both men laughed. Nevertheless, In
spite of the humor of the situation, it bad
more than the umial peril Incident in travel
on the IJogota trail to be comfortable.
"Two men agulnK a regiment'" chuckled
Herran.
"ttut they are not after us." ingii"d David
"They are aftei the Yonkteh and ou ale
a Yankee. Well. Senor. what shall we do."'
"You are In command. Si nor General."
"Caramba! Then, let us mutch' We
can't jump down those rock", the suamp Is
even vj;orse-j-and w won't ietre.it hefoie a
lot of peons. Forward, Senor' We can at
least use pistols If we need to '"
With which comfottlng assurance Herran
handed one of his case bottles to David,
this the latter tetalned, first joining his
comrado (u a final "halutc." declaring all the
while that this kind nf exeieice had been
unknown to him for jfai" a statement re
ceived by General Herran with the skepticism
it deserved. The two hordes vveie then
brought Into line and. with touch of whip
and spur, commenced a ncianible up the
trail, at the top of which the fiont rank
of the peons were Just visible.
As Herran bad pi i dieted, Um traveler
with whom they had to contest the right of
way belonged to one of "the volunteer regl
ments pf Bogota penns bound for the Isth
mus. At their head rode I'edio, "III He,"
more diUpldattd an to costume bu' more
joyous of mood than on that memorable
morning when he led bis forces down the
Calle do I.as Montanas to be rnvlewed by the
President oT the Republic. f
Immediately behind him. borne by two of
his trusted lieutenants, floated the flag of
the tepubllc. Its id and yellow fold some

march, and Happing now In an thing but

Huvlng rtac'.ied the top of the hill over
looking the sheltned ledge chosen by David
and Herran foi their impromptu celebration,
the vplunteerc kept right on. Led by Pedru
and his two hannpr-beurers, they plunged
down the steep, winding trail, crowdir.? upon
each other, shouting and laughing, tilling the
narrow spare with most unmllitary disorder.
In the meantime the two norsemeii irled
Ijielr best to reach a point bb near as possible
to the top of tlis trail before the volunteers
began the descent In this they failed, and
the inevitable colllilon with the front ranks
f the peons took place half way up the hill
side. Hr they nut Pedro and h's Immni ate
fellow ers. lishind whom pitssed. with Increae.

"Hug tho side of the road." rauiioned Her

In a way General Herran felt responsible
for the safety of the man with whom he had
been traveling, the more so that this man
was a foreigner, belonging tn a nation whose
citizens weie.not welcome jurt then In Coloni

can, Herran would have taK.n bis disap

cheerful Indifference peculiar to hint. But
the fact that he was an Amtrican. alone in
a hostile country, appealed to a chivalrous
strain in his natu:e, urging him to do the
best he could for his rescue.
