Sotsif:
Thor© is a lull in society excitement, a
surcease of card parties, of afternoon
teas, dances and reception. Whether
or not it is welcomed Is hard to ascer
tain, since some sighs were heard Tues
day evening and much regret expressed
that "that was the very last cant party
for so long." Some probably are in a
rather helpless condition. They don't
know what to do with themselves; while
others are glad to be released from soci
ety's clutches for forty days.
The literary clubs will pursue their
course unbroken by lighter distractions.
There will be several country house par
ties which will contain Savannah guests.
Batcy the rehearsals of the
Flower Queen and the Mikado
will be renewed, as troth plays will be re
peated after Easter. It is rumored that
a Japanese pagoda will be erected In the
I’ark extension, where the performances
of the Mikado wdll take place during May
week. It will be a Mikado festival and
promises to be a unique affair of the
kind.
The past week was one of much gaiety
during Monday and Tuesday. A large car l
parly Monday evening, a german and
Married Woman's Club Tuesday, w Ith
other smaller affairs, about nils the list
of entertainments.
Opera parties were also made up to hear
II Trovatore and Carmen. The theater
has taken on a metropolitan aspect since
the vanish of hats. The dcml-toilets of
the ladies give a eity-like appearance to
an audience that lias done away with a
village custom. It is as unusual now to
tee* a large hat in the theater as it is to
*ee the men keep still.

tainly one of the pleasantest ever given
within recent date.

events, worthy of more than a passing
mention. The widespread popularity of

One of the smallest germans of the
season was danced last Tuesday evening
at the Guards' armory hall, and one of
the most exciting ever danced since the
days of war-Ilke experiences, when the
cavaliers were called from banquet halls
to buckle on their armor. The german
was lead by Mr. Arthur Beverly Elliott,
and all went well until the eleven taps
were sounded and the military men took
short leave of their partners, leaving
them to the care of the chaperons and
about one dozen uou-military men. The
german became an informal affair; one
of the ladles took the whistle and load
the figures while the dancers lead out
with ladies when the men didn’t go round.
Slipper was taken at the usual hour,
but by fewer than was expected, until
later, when the company returned from
duty, found supper served in their drill
room, and like hungry soldiers returned
from war fell to, unmindful of the sup
perless german dancers stLll to come.
The military men returned in time to
catch the last dance and to escort their
partners home.

IT IS A SECRET NO LONGER.
\ PRIVATE MARRIAGE OF THREE
Yll AUS VGO MADE PI IILIC.
Miss Kallmrino Luc lie Footr, n
Waiihlnßtoi! Girl, Mnrrieil to the
Prenitlent of nn Opal Mino—Hns
Mnle a Great Keputatlon on the
Mtnire.
From the Washington Post.
A little secret of three years’ standing in
the life of Miss Katherine Lucile Foote,
of tills city,who is now playing: with great
success in London, where she is known
as the 4, Anie'can Girl,” has just been
made public. Miss Foote came here from
Toledo with her parents when she was
threo years old, and was educated here.
Developing into a remarkable pianist, she
was sent to Paris Oct. 1, 1890, to finish
her musical education, and was aceom
panied by her mother. She studied in
Paris under M. Dupont Vernon, of the
Comedle Francaise, and played in a small
part at the Theater Francals. Then, going
to England, went on a tour with Mr.
Wilson Barrett, who gave her the leading
part in “The American Girl.” She also
played Olive Skinner in “The Silver
King.” the fisherman’s wife in “Ben-my-
Chree,” and other parts. She next went
on a twelve months’ engagement with
Messrs. Williams and Musgrave’s com
pany to Australia, She has lately been
on tour with the Gaiety company, playing
Donna Inez in “Don Juan.” She was of
ferred the title role, but preferred Inez, as
more suited to her. Mr. Edouln asked the
manager of the company to release her
when he wanted her for “Niobe,” but
they would not let her off until her en
gagement was completed, and, meantime,
owing to some difference about the loane
of his theater, Mr. Edouln has had to
postpone the production of the play for
which she had been engaged by him.
Amid all these successes in assumed ro
mance she tasted the sweets of real ro
mance and married, Oct. 24. at Sydney,
New South Wales, Mr. Frank Musgrave
Perry, a wealthy merchant, importer and
mine owner of that city. Although Mr.
Perry was a distinguished gentleman of
considerable fortune, for professional
reasons Miss Foote kept the marriage a
secret to the public, and it was known
only to hor father, mother and brother,
all of whom have preserved the secret.
But on Feb. ♦> she made the marriage pub
lic by an advertisement in the London
Daily Telegraph.
Mr. Musgrave Perry is an American,
born in Buffalo. N. Y. His wealth was
gained abroad thoug.*. and at the time
of his marriage he was president of the
largest opal mine in India. He has con
stantly endeavored to get Miss Foote to
leave the stage, but she persistently re
fuses to do this.
Gol. Morris J. Foote, her father, a clerk
in tb** treasury, and Mr. Eugene Foote,
private secretary to Gen. Sickles, are
! both well known here. When Col Foote
was shown the public advertisement of
the marriage of his talented daughter in
the London Daily Telegraph of Feb. he
said it was a matter he wished to say
| nothing about, in deference to his daugh
ter’s wishes, but as she made the matter
public in London, probably she does not
object to its publicity in her home. He.
said he endeavored to get his daughter
to leave the stage after the marriage,
but without avail. She has talked to him
j about the stage from a child of 10 years
! old, and when she left this country, in
1890, at the age of 10. it was her intention
to carry out her desire, but he fought
against it as fojlishness. But now his
daughter has gained seme distinction
abroad Gol. Foote seems to think that
she should follow her profession.
Miss Foote will he remembered by those
who knew her as a girl here as an accom
plished musician and a clever amateur
actress. Her marriage even to those who
know her intimately will be a surprise,
tor the matter has been kept a secret to
all in this country except her father and
brother. Her latest success in London
has been in a special engagement with
Mr. Willie Edouin to his production in
that city of “Niobe.” She immediately
preceding this special engagement, made
a hit as Mrs. Frecmantje Wyville in “The
Wrong Woman.” She is now known to
the London theatrical world as “the
American girl” and “bazaar fiend.”
Florida's Old-Fashioned Governor.
From the New York Press.
“If Gov. Mitchell were a younger man
I should look to see him in the Senate one
of these days,” said Samuel W. Teague,
the Ocala statesman, at the Shoreham
yesterday. That is what I call a charita
ble way of putting it. I believe Mitchell is
a dead duck for other reasons than age.
He has. however, done pretty well for a
countryman who emigrated from Georgia
to Florida in an ox cart. I remember well
the day the court records were to- be
moved from the old to the new’ court house
in Ocala. Mitchell drove up with his
steer and cart, asked for the job and got
it! He loves poker, and many a stiff game
he played with state senators and repre
sentatives while the legislature was vot
ing to abolish the sport. I know two
members of the Senate who voted "ayt*”
and immediately left the chamber to join
the governor in a “little draw.” Asa
practical joker he succeeds admirably.
Senators Marks and Abrams engaged in a
bitter controversy, each denouncing the
o-iher for all he was worth. Both are ex
plosive and highly combustible. Each
thought he “had the governor.” Said
Marks: “I dare you to settle this affair
by resigning.” Sure of his ground. Ab
rams replied: “Done,” and the resigna
tions were handed in. Abrams’ was
promptly accepted, and Marks has been
on top ever since.
