Trouville, the Neighboring Resort,

DEAUVILLE, Aug. 16.—Deauville-
Trouville week ends to-morrow.
A fortnight hence both towns will
be deserted. Deauville this year kill
ed its next door neighbor, killed it
deliberately with aforethought and
malice. Trouville, which used to be
the pet of fashion, has been abandon
ed to the humble bourgeois, while
Deauville, which once was its placid
annex, is now the center of French
summer life.
Apart from its casino and hotels,
Deauville has little in itself to draw
a crowd with the exception of its race
course and its polo grounds. Its
beach is bare and sad, its streets
sordid, the local shops are merely
offshoots of Parisian stores. The na
tives are uncivil and ill-bred, yet
somehow Deauville is the heart of
fashion. Newport would give its very
soul to boast of a tenth of the nobility
which lounges about the Oeauville
casino and chatters at the “potiniere”
and tangoes in new and garish villas.
Grouped about those haunts, half
the Faubourge Saint Germain and the
cream of American plutocracy seem
pent up here in u space one • mile
square. The chief hotels, the old
Normandy and new Royal, fairly reek
of money.
Great Artists at Casino.
Great singers, famous actors and
popular musicians add to the bril
liancy of the season. In the tiny
casino theater one may hear French
and Italian opera sung by Maria
Kousnezoff, the gifted Russian, who
has supplanted Mary Garden in Paris;
Challaplne, Sammarco, LaFont and
other favorites.
Society comes here above all to see
Itself, to talk scandal or to cause
tvcandal, to display dresses and to air
its millions. Each morning the Rue
Gontant Biron. adjoining the casino,
is thronged with women wearing ec
centric costumes slashed and low'.
Mesdames with titles a yard long
jostle women of no social standing.
The men chaff, laugh and flirt with
all alike, and for an hour the street
resembles a big love mart.
By far the best-dressed woman
here this year is Mme. Kousnezoff.
Yesterday, when I met her at the
Royal, she wore a poetic white silk
gown cut rather low' and relieved ov
knots of dark blue satin, a much
modernized mob cap trimmed with
lace, transparent white stockings and
W'hite sandal shoes. About her arms
and neck w’ere sapphires, pearls and
diamonds, from her ears hung costly
sapphires and diamond earrings.
Mme. Kousnezoff, W'ho Is the daugh
ter of a famous Russian painter, told
me she had hoped to sing with the
Chicago Opera Company next winter.
Baron Gunzburg her French mana
ger, however, flatly refused to release
her. so it may be another year before
she goes to America. She is planning
an American concert tour with her
husband and a distinguished conduc
tor named Lasalle.
Chaliapine, her compatriot, paid her
an unusual compliment by support
ing her in a small part. In one re
spect Mme. Kousnezoff is unique. Be
sides being a most charming singer,
she is a premiere danseuse who could
hold her own with even Pavlova. The
Czar was so amazed one night by her
dancing one of Rimsky Korsakoff’s
operas that he sent her a decoration.
Mary Garden Can’t Sing.
Mary Garden, who, I regret to hear,
has not yet recovered her voice, was
to have sung the title role In “Le
Jongleur” this week at the Casino,
but could,not appear.
It is unlikely that she will create
the part of Maliela in "The Jewel of
the Madonna” at the Paris Opera
House. Some hint that she may never
reappear there. This would distress
her friends and please her foes, who
seem equally numerous.
In the lobby of the Royal I found
Chaliapine upright and boyish In his
air as ever. He know nothing of his
reported engagement with the Rus
sian Opera Company by Milton and
Sargent Aborn, though he assured me
he would rather like to return to
America.
"The first time I was there, and
also the last time.” said Chaliapine, ”1
was wrongly introduced as a Russian
bas«=o. Besides, I had to face Italian
comrades who, in a quiet but effective
way, edge out their rivals."
Some days ago society was thrilled
by the arrival of Comte DeLarienty
Tholozan in an aeroplane. He came
just in time to attend the big race for
Prix Florian de Kergolux. Though I
saw several dainty dresses In the pad-
dock, the cool weather prevented
many women doing themselves Jus
tice with their toilets. Princess Guy
de Faucigny Lucinge wore mauve.
Oomt'esse de Segonsac affected helio
trope, Comteese de Gallifet looked
very well in gray.
Among the host of smart Americans
who attended the races this week were
Mr. and Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt, Mr.
end Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt, whose
yacht is anchored; Mr. and Mrs. Ralph
Curtis, Lady Granard (nee Beatrice
Mills), Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Duryea,
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Widener, Mrs.
Potter Palmer, Mr. and Mrs. T. Bid
dle, Mrs. Mackay, Mr. and Mrs. Perm
Belmont, Anthony J. Drexel and Mr.
and Mrs. Charles Carroll, of Carroll
ton.

LONDON, Aug. 16.—An American
woman may rule in Ireland as wife
the first victory under home rule.
All London is talking over the pros
pect and is prophesying the appoint
ment of tne Earl of Granard as Vice
Regent of Ireland. The Countess of
Granard was formerly Miss Beatrice
Mills, of New York the beautiful
heiress whose marriage to the Earl
was generally considered a love
match.
The talk of the appointment is al
most universally popular gossip. The
Earl is a Catholic and his American
wife is wealthy, and it is Relieved he
will be acceptable to the Irish peo
ple, and fully able to hold his own
as to the splendor of his court.
But apart from the material advan
tages of politics, wealth and religion,
society talks pleasantly of the Count
ess herself. They recall the brilliant
figure that Lady Daisy Leiter Curzon
made as wife of the Viceroy in India,
and announce in their opinion Count
ess of Granard will be as presenta
ble.
Color of reality was given to the
gossip when the Earl and his Countess
went to Castle Forbes, Ireland, last
week. No announcement was made
that their trip had anything of a mo
mentous nature, but it is rumored that
beyond the casual appearance of the
journey th^re is something of signif
icance. ,

LONDON, Aug 16.—Croquet has
suddenly come back into favor after
a long rest, and is a marked feature
at all smart week-end parties.
Tennis is too strenuous and golf
too bufiling for many whose social
duties call for much of their time.
The croquet lawns at Ranelagh and
Hurlingham are in great demand, and
many are introducing new rules and
new kinds of hoops to give novelty to
the game.
The Earl of Essex is devoted to the
game. Lady Charles Beresford also
passes hours at it.
Viscount Doneraile, Lord Toll 3-

LONDON, Aug. 16.—There was a
great outpouring from the metropolis
this week for northern moors, where
grouse shooting opened ov/ the "glo
rious twelfth.”
This method of spending a vaca
tion is becoming more and more pop
ular owing to the keenness with which
American sportsmen have taken to

according to one computation, paM
from $2,000,000 to $3,000,000 to needy

PISA, Aug. 16.—A visit to
Rossore, only a few miles from Pisa,
where the Italian royal family spends
part of the summer vacation, would
reveal to the reader An idyllic site.
In June Queen Elena leaves the cap
ital for the pine forest and the shores
of San Rossore, where her four beau
tiful children are allowed to roam
and exercise in the sports which have
made them strong and healthy. The
actual vacation, however, dv>«B not be
gin until after Parliament has ad
journed and King Victor has signed
the last laws voted during the sum
mer session.
Then he is free, and the royal fam
ily enjoys complete rest in the com- |
pany of a few selected friends and
the ladies and gentlemen in waiting
who accompany them and who are
changed every two weeks.
Formalities Are Banished.
At San Rossore, and later on at the
Castle of Racconigi, where the roy il
family spends September and Octo
ber, court etiquette ann, the formali
ties of the court ceremonial are ban
ished and everybody is left free to
follow' his ow'n inclinations.
The King, w'ho is an amateur agri
culturist, spends much time experi
menting with combinations to produce
new varieties of flowers, while he
Queen paints and sketches under the
aged trees in which the estate is very
rich. The King, when tired of his
floricultural labors, repatrs to his li
brary and his numismatic collection.
The King anu Queen are both en
thusiastic ppdestrinns, and now and
then they start out early In the morn
ing to traverse the old forest, which
extends more than twenty miles along
the sea front. During the walk the
Queen is always ready to snapshot
with her camera a picturesque scene,
N while the King, who has inherited
from his father and grandfather a
passion for hunting, takes an occa
sional shot at the sea birds.
Every Liberty for Children.
The royal children are allowed the
fullest liberty.
Their pastimes are so arranged r.s
to teach them many things for w'hich
there is no place in the school cur
riculum. This year a Norwegian vil
lage has been built for them by Archi
tect Stromucci of the Royal Castle on
a green lawn facing the sea.
The furniture of the four small cot
tages was designed by the Queen her
self, and the children will decorate it
with pyrography.
The idea of the Queen is to teach
the young princesses to learn the
management of the house. The chil
dren invite each other by turn and
the Crown Prince is always required
to escort the visiting party. The in
viting princess receives the visitors
and entertains them at tea.
Only two governesses look after the
royal children when on vacation, r ^s
the tutors are dismissed during The
summer. The only lessons they take
are In foreign languages, and even
these are imparted in a most practical
way. A day in the week is set fbl
each language and on that day they
are allowed to speak no other lan
guage but that scheduled at both
lunch and dinner. French is spoken
on Sunday, for example, German on
Tuesday and English on Thursday.

BERLIN, Aug. 16.—According to
carefully tabulated statistics of the
police, nearly 7,000 Americans regis
tered at Berlin hotels during the past
month. This is about 1.000 more than
stopped here during the correspond
ing period last year and greatly ex
ceeds the number of tourists coming
from any other one countn* Russia
and Austria being the only excep
tions.
Although this has not bden a record-
. breaking year in the matter of Amer-
San j can tourist traffic, it is safe to as
sume that the total number of visitors
from the United States during the
present season considerably exceeds
30 000.
Mr. and Mrs. Maurice L. Rothschild,

tor tour of nearly two months in dif
ferent parts of Europe. With the

"In the great spas of Europe one

ROME. Aug. 16.—The tenth anni
versary of the election of Pius X to
the throne of St. Peters, also the an
niversary of his coronation, will be
observed at the Vatican this week in
a much quieter way than in former
years.
The Pope was in better health, and
his activity as a reformer was at its
zenith.
This year the change which the
Papal Court has undergone ever since
Pius X was elected has become very
noticeable.
To say that the old conservative
Roman element court, the Papal no
bility and a large army of Vntican
officeholders are mourlng the days oi
yore and that deep dissatisfaction ex-
ists among the Curia Prelates is to
state only part of the truth.
Prelates who reached the highest
rank in the church under Leo XIII
make sad reflections over the change
and the passing u£ the splendor of
the court.
Life Extremely Simple.
One of the traits of the Pope’s char
acter which has endeared him to ex
alted and humble alike Is the extreme
simplicity of his lire and his dislike of
gorgeous ceremonies when not in
tended to do honor to God, but nat
urally this policy, although strongly
supported by the clergy at large, has
found fe\v sympathizers among those
connected with the court.
The press, still devoted to the mem
ory of the great Pope, has been draw
ing some sharp comparisons between
the way the anniversaries scheduled
to be celebrated under Leo and that
in vogue now.
Under Leo, coronation days were
occasions of gorgeous ceremonies, in
tended to convey to the enemies of
the church a concrete idea of the
Pope’s power on earth. On corona
tion day Pope Leo would receive the
diplomatic corps sitting on his gold
end jewel-studded throne, assisted by
the heads of the two oldest princely
families in Rome, Prince Colonna and
Prince Orslni. surrounded by all the
members of the sacred college who
were summoned to Rome.
The Vatican presented a spectacle,
with the militia In gala uniforms,
prelates of all ranks In picturesque
robes, the heads of religious orders,
civilians wearing Insignia of offices
and court robes, forming an ensemble
which would hardly be surpassed by
any other court.
Splendor Has Disappeared.
To-day the gorgeousness and splen
dor have almost disappeared from the
Papal Court. Ever since his election,
one of the features of the policy of
Pius X has been a steady curtailment
of expenses and the abolition of of
fices w'hich the changed times and the
new state of things have rendered ob
solete and merely decorative.
From the diplomatic point of view,
r he Papal Court has lost much of Its
importance under Plus X Several
European countries, Including B’rance,
Portugal and the principality of Mo
naco. have abolished their legations
to the Holy See.
Madame Dieulafoy Would Hava
Them Fill Hospital, Commissary
and Other Departments.
By MARQUIS DE CASTELLANE.
Special Cable to The American.
PARIS. Aug. 16.—Madame Dieula
foy, w'ho has permission from the
French Government to wear man ®
attire, lays down some logical mili
tary consequence* which must fol
low, sho cays, from the suffragette
movement.
Madame Dieulafoy is rot a mere
eccentric in dress. She is a distin
guished explorer and author. She
says:
“One of the results of the suffra
gette movement is that women must
assume many responsibilities which
formerly belonged to men. Certain
assistant positions in the army should
be assigned to them. They should
take over all the work of the nurse®
in the army.
"In time of war 40.000 male at
taches of hospitals could be replaced
by women. This would add a good
sized army corps to the fighting ma
terial of the country.
”1 would even favor compulsory
hospital training for women, with a
view to service as field nurses in time
of war. This is a rough draft of a
bill to meet the situation.
“Every woman of 20 years, mar
ried or unmarried, shall serve six
months in the hospitals. In every
subsequent year, until she is 45, she
shall serve three weeks in the hos
pitals.
"Women with children under 7
years of age shall be exempt.
"Women with more than three
children shall be exempt from all
further hospital service.”

The Association is the center of the religious and social activities

Many interesting social gatherings where distinguished people from At
