MAGAZINES.
The Sew England Magazine , ia com
mending itself to the kind attention of the
public for the year 1891, points to its suc
cessive issues during the present yoar for
witness of its steady improvement, and of
the earnest efforts of its conductors to fur
nish what will make its pages welcome in
every American home. The December
number is a great improvement over pre
vious numbers. It is a most excellent num
ber, and shows signs of increasing prosper
ity. Sew England Magazine, 86 Federal
street, Boston.
The December number of the Cosmopolitan
contains some notable articles. One that will
attract a great deal of attention is “The
Passion play at Oberammergau,” by Eliza
beth Bisland. It is, however, illustrated,
and the description of the play is exoeilent.
“Field Marshal von Multki,” by James
Grant Wilson, is another article that is well
worth reading. There are several othor
articles of considerable literary merit, and
the poetry and reviews aro flrsc-olass. The
Cosmopolitan, Fifth avenue, Broadway
and Twenty-fifth streets.
The December number of tbe Magazine
of American History presents a rich and
varied table of contents. The opening
paper is a graphic historical sketch of the
rise and fall and characteristics of “The
Ancient Tow.i of Fort Benton, in Montana,”
with picturesque accounts, handsomely il
lustrated, of early navigation of the upper
Missouri river. The second contribution,
“David Hartley and the American Colon
ie3, v ' by Joseph W. Hartley of Mew York,
touches upon a theme of intense interest
and consequence to all Americans. Tbe
material condensed iu this scholarly article
is much of it new to the general realer, and
an admirable portrait of David Hartley,
England’s signer of fcno definitive treaty of
peace with A meric i. forms the frontisoieca
of the magazine. .743 Broadway, Mew York.
The December number of the North
American Hevietc brings to a close the 151st
volume of that ancient and honorable peri
odical. which still retains the place it has
long held in periodical literature. It is a
notable issue, containing article! on timely
and interesting topics by ma :iy distinguished
writers. The editor has increased the nu ■ -
bor of pages from 128 to 144, iu order to
mako room for n greater variety of interest
ing matter. The opjoing article is u re

The Wife of Ex-Secretary Whitney as a
Social Leader— Great Entertainments
of the Winter -One Million Dollars
Spent in Fun The King of the Dudes
on Correct Evening Dress-Bob
Ingersoll as an Entertainer.
Nkw York, Dec. 6. —The season of din
ners, receptions and teas has opened with
unexpected attractiveness. Not in manv
years have the gay world looked forward to
a winter of enjoyment with such thorough
zast as at present. From one end to the
other of Murry Hill, the butterflies of fash
ion are iu a ferment about dinners to take
place, balls, weddings and other interesting
events where it is possible to spend a large
amount of money and entertain on a lavish
scale. Of the people who are likely to be
brought forward prominently this winter,
as social leaders, none will stand a
better chance of success than the
wife of ex-Secretary Whitney. She has
already given a few breakfasts and dinners
that have b.-en attended by the best people
here and in Washington, and she promises
to give the Astors, the Vanderbilts and the
others a very lively chase in the matter of
elaborate entertainments. Mrs. Whitney
is peculiarly fortunate in having a house to
entertain in—a house built on a princely
scale, filled with rare pictures and works of
art, a veritable museum of treasure. And
to those may be added, a superb chef, a
retinue of well drilled servants, and a
din in {-room large enough to seat forty
couples at dinner. Mrs. W hitney has taken
it into her head to lead la all matters of
social prominence. She has identified her
self with a groat many charitable institu
tions, aud she has as a powerful ally Ward
McAllister, who despite the eneuiies he bus
made by his ill-advised book, is still a
powerful social factor. Of course, Mrs.
Whituey will not be allowed to wield the
scepter without a struggle, but she is as
clever a diplomat as was Talleyrand,
and with a fortune that briugs
her au income of half a
million a year, she may be depended upon
to more than hold her own in the contest.
One of her most intimate friends at present
is Mrs. Josef* Pnlitzer, tho wife of the
owner of tho “ World,” who is also likely to
be heard of during the winter as a royal
entertainer. Mrs. Pulitzer is a singularly
attractive woman, a delightful conversa
tionalist, and as charming a friend as one
need have.
Of course, there are others besides Mrs.
Whitney who will give large entertain
ments, aud all the swell caterers are en
gaged in puzzling their chefs with some
novelty to startle tho elite with. Del
monico’s new ballroom is one of the hand
somest places la this country, if not iu the
world. It has been engaged for every
night, beginning with Dec. 1, until Lent.
The most of the fashionable bails will be
held there. AU the big dinners ot the sea
son will bo given there. In fact, it will be
the magnet to draw society together six
nights in the week.
But Delmonico has rivals—a score of
them. They are also as busy as bees ar
ranging for coming feasts, and it would be
difficult indeed to make au arrangement for
t big dinner or ball at any of the first class
places, eveu if one promised a fabulous
sum.
I was talking to Ward McAllister the
other day about the great growth of enter
taining iu New York, and asked him if he
could roughly estimate the amount of
money spent by tho Four Hun Jred in din
ner-giving, balls and receptions, during the
winter. “At least $100,000,” I said to him
venturesomely. He looked at me for a mo
ment ia a discouraging sort of way, aud
mildly answered, ’’sl,ooo,ooo wouldn’t
cover it.”
KING OF THE DUDES OFIf TO LONDON.
Louis Onatavia, who temporarily, at any
rate, occupies tho throne, and ia called the
“king of the dudes,” is nowon the bounding
billows, going as fast as steam and sail will
carry him to London, where he may be de
pended upon to astonish the London swells.
Onatavia has a few marked characteristics,
chief of which is his love for loud clothing
and fast horses. He must have at least two
score of fancy waisreoato, quite as many
pairs of trousers, and he is the only man in
New York who possesses three dozen robes
de chambre, in all shades of rich silks, and
profusely embroidered.
At a little dinner given to him at a lead
ing club tho night before his departure, Mr.
Onatavia was asked to give his opinion on
the correct evening drees for men, a subject
by the way, that seems to be open for dis
cussion in this city. Said he: “The fall
dress suit is distinctively tho evening dross,
and should never bo worn before the even
ing dinner. It can bo worn anywhere iu
the evening and must be worn on all occa
sions of formal ceremony, such as wed
dings, parties, dinners, receptions, theater
and opera parties and other occasions whose
formal character is indicated by a formal
invitation, and where social amenities are
at their highest. Fine black worsted, either
of very fine diagonal or of fine wales run
ning nearly straight across the web, is the
proper material for coat, trousers and vost;
or, if desired, the latter may be white or
black Bilk. Coats may have collars cut
either with or without lapels, tho former
style being most in favor. The roll in either
case is light and long, extending to
within five inches of the waist. Handsome
embroidery upon tbe waistcoat is now fre
quently usod, but is not absolutely essential.
The collar should be moderately high, and
may either be straight or with turn-over
points. The favorite straight collar just
meets in front, and the points aro just bent
a trifle, but cot turnod over. The full dress
shirt must bo plain white, and may either
be a linen, pique or damask bosom, open
ing in front. If of linen, it may be either
plain, pieated or embroidered. The em
broidered front is most desirable; the
pleated front the least so, as the latter is not
greatly iu vogue. The plain front may
have either a corded or hemstitched edge.
There is but one kind of tie permissablo for
full dress —a plain white lawn tie of
moderate width. Occasionally gentlemen
wear black satin ties with evening dress,
but they are not now fashionable. White
or pearl gloves, with stitching of the same
color, are the only proper
gloves for full dress. They should
be worn on all occasions of ceremony. Silk
handkerchiefs, either white or black, are
now much used with evening dress. The
black handkerchief is considered very good
form. A plain white linen handkerchief is
always in the best of taste. Shooi for full
dress have patent leather uppers and silk
tops. The crush hat is no longer in use. A
light-weight silk hat is the only one to wear
with full dress.”
808 INGBRSOLL AS AN ENTERTAINER.
Col. Robert G. Ingereoll is going to dis
tinguish himself in New York this winter
in anew direction. He announoes a series
of elaborate dinner* during December and
January, at which he will bring together
ail the famous men and women of New
York. Since he has taken up his residence
hero Mr. lugersoll has fitted up an elabor
ate homo at No. 4UO Fifth avenue, a great
big roomy house, with pictures all over the
wails, books iu every corner, busts of fa
mous men here, there and everywhere, und
every room flooded with mellow light
from dozens of lamps. It is one of the
brightest houses in New York, and those
who are fortunate enough to be invited
there always meet a goodly company of
men and women famous for their ability
to do something well. Cast winter Col.
lugersoll gave receptions to his friends
on Sunday evenings. His parlors wore
always cr.wded, and the great agnostic
was the most delightful of men Mo
laughed with the girls, talked seriously
w ilb the moo, cracked a joke at the sup
per table, aul s euied to boas itontenled
us a man can wall be. I noticed cm more
than one occasion, whenever acme ill
moiueret person brought up the subject of
religion that Col. Ingersoll deftly turned ef
cm vernation. But, upon one memorable
I! '-ht that I recall, Grace Greenwood, the
authoress, turned to him and said familiarly,
as do most of hi* friends: “Boh, what do
you thiuk of Shakespeare:” 1 suppose the
question was prompted by a maguifioent
bust of the Bard of Avon that si >od on a
pedestal near by. Col. Ingersoll not at
a loss for an ar swer. Ho walked over to
the bust, looked at the face affecttonally,
and then. In a low voice, began os eloquent
a tribute to the great poet as has ever bea
paid him. For five minutes ho poured forth
his eloquence in a low, calm voice, and
when he looked up he found t hatful! the men
aud women in tho parlors were on tip-roe,
eager to catch every wonl that fell from his
lips. I wish I could reproduce those words
now, but 1 can't. I remember the conclu
sion. however. It was thb:
"Rome day I bops to be able in a more
appropriate place than this to give my views
on Shakespeare. I have been thinking for
years about a lecture upon him, and leave
spent many hours in working over the sub
ject. Wbea I get it just ns I w ant it, 1
shall deliver it to the public. But lam
afraid it is going to taka me a long time to
say just what 1 Want to say. 1 want to do
justice to Shakespeare, and that is no easy
matter.’’
