By CHARLES HENRY MELTZER. Special Cable to The American. 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. One of the most exclusive clubs In France, the Cercle de Deauville, has Just elected Clarence H. Mackay and J. E. Widener permanent members. Countess of Granard, formerly Miss Beatrice Mills, whose husband is prominently mentioned as first Viceroy of Ireland under home rule. Americans Have Paid From Two to Three Million Dollars for Hunting Privilege.

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. , Windsor Castle Open Croquet Suddenly To Tourists Again The Fad in England King George Orders That Any Offi cial Accepting Tip Will Be Dismissed. Special Cable to The American. LONDON, Aug. 16.—At this time of the year hundreds of American visitors go to Windsor to explore the castle, and there is rejoicin in the town over the reopening of the State apartments which have been closed ever since last January through fear of suffragette outrages. Every person who entered the castl* will have to pay a shilling, and there will be no free days as hitherto. By the King's command this money will go to the local hospital. By the King’s command also it »s reported that no “tips” whatever shall be given to guides or to any of the officials at the castle. If any official Is discovered accepting a “tip,” he will be dismissed.

PARIS, Aug. 16.—The French Gov ernment has decided to prohibit the ”penny-in-the-slot” gambling ma chines in all the lower class cafes. The last available statistics show, that in 1911 there were 64,953 of these petty gambling machines in use in France, and that their total re ceipts during the year were $30,000,- 000. Special Cable to The American. 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- mache, Lord Lurgan and Nigel Klngs- cote are often to be seen playing at Ranelagh. Among the fair sex one notices Lady Angela Forbes. Lady Margaret Spicer, Lady Sophie Scott, Lady Win ifred Butler and Mrs. Arthur Sas soon. Special Cable to The American. 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 it. It is no exaggeration to say that at least 50 per cent of the finest shooting in England and Scotland this year are rented by Americans who, according to one computation, paM from $2,000,000 to $3,000,000 to needy landow'ners for the privilege of "hav ing a go at the birds.” Lord Granard and Henry Phipps. Jr., have taken Glenprosen Lodge, Forfarshire, Scotland, for the shoot ing season. Lady Granard and Mrs. Henry Phipps are twin sisters. Depews Entertain on Yacht. Mr. and Mrs. Chauncey Depew, who gave a very jolly dance on their yacht Mirande to wind up the Cowes regat ta, are now cruising off the south coast. Mrs. David Beatty also is cruising in the channel. Among her guests in Millicent, Duchess of Suth erland, who is finding it rather trying to be a dowager.

This place is owned by the young Marquis of Northampton, the hero of the recent sensational breach of promise case, Lady Paget, who is with her great friend, Mrs. William Leeds, at Aix Les Bains, is expected to return soon en route to Ireland. Mrs. Almeric aget, nee Whitney, is also completing a cure at the same place.

Mr. and Mrs. George Gould will spend the autumn at their ahooting lodge near Aberfeldy, Scotland where they will be joined by Lady Decies and her husband. Ambassador ami Mrs. Page, who have been spending a few days at Cambridge. have returned to town.

Sullivan, of Chicago, entertained a party consist ing of John Hopkins. James F. Galla gher and E. F. Kelly. Mrs. Sullivan has gone on a visit to her Irish rela tives. Sullivan proclaims himself an enthusiastic supporter of the English Channel tunnel scheme, but believes a tunnel between Ireland and England will be even more advantageous by opening the English market to the daily produce of Ireland. Sullivan believes Russia offers enor mous opportunities to American en terprise and is likely in the near fu ture to become one of the best world’s markets. Phillip M. Lydig gave a couple of dinner parties before departing to Scotland for the shooting with a par ty including W. C.

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. Special Cable to The American. 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, of Chicago, stopped here after a mo tor tour of nearly two months in dif ferent parts of Europe. With the Rothschild party is Miss Florence Si mon, of Minneapolis. Other motor ists who arrived during the week w ere Gilbert W. Lee and Norton Lee, Detroit, who also motored from Leip zig on their aw r y home.

Revel, of Chicago, De clares Money Is Wasted Trying to Hide Time’s Ravages. Special Cable to The American. CARLSBAD, Aug. 16.—Alexander II. Revel, of Chicago, thinks modern life is becoming so fasr that all the joy of it is being crushed out and the best of heaven’s gifts are being set at naught. "There is a great waste." said Mr. Revel, “hurtful to the best interests of ;dl the people, and in this England and America easily lead. But they are being run a close race by France and Germany. "In the great spas of Europe one sees men and women from all parts of the W'orld. nervous excitable and looking artificially well, because their money is spent to hide the blemishes and ravages of life. More wholesome living all around, with a certain sub stance in simplicity, would do more for health, comfort and good cheer.” By CAMILLO ClANFARRA. Special Cable to The American. 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.” Would you hav* a alkn, youthful figure? Though no longer young, It may be your*.
