CIRCUMSTANCE.
Mn marvel at the poet'a song
Each lyric's soft, enchanting ring, Nor dream that once when days were long, , Twai grief that taught her heart to sing. They "watched the painter's canvas glow With sunlit waters, dawn's faint blush I That yield no hint of years ago When poverty had sped his brush. 'Yet I, the shadowed Circumstance, Still wait "within my darkened way . And prick men with a testing lance To prove them more than common clay. Eleanor Robbins Wilson, in September Nautilus.

MRS. OGDEN L. MILLS. TROUVILLE, Sept. 7. The three sensations of Grand Prix week at Deauville were created by American women Mrs. Ogden L. Mills, with her hoop skirt; Mrs. William Guggenheim with her fan and Mrs. Frank J. Gould with her pearls. Mrs. Mills is a stepdaughter of William K. Vanderbilt, who is highly regarded at Deauville on account of his public spirit and interest in the sports that have made the resort famous. She appeared at Deauville Casino in a dress which caused consternation and shocked the good taste of the most fashionable and elegantly gowned gathering ever assembled at any resort. Mrs. - Mills's costume was of white satin, over which hung a tunic effect of black net, heavily embroidered with a large design in silver. But the startling part of the dress was the hoop which held the tunic out fully five inches from the skirt all around. This made an effect of a hoop overskirt reaching to just above the knees. As soon as Mrs. Mills entered the Casino she was followed everywhere by a curious throng who, when they were not commenting adversely upon the taste of a woman who would dare to wear such a monstrosity, were rediculing her. Many of the throng took her for a mannequin from the Rue de la Paix trying to launch a new style, but throughout the grilling Mrs. Mills seemed absolutely unconcerned, and went about as if she were the most insignificant and unnoticed person present. When she finally donned a cloak to depart, the effect of the hoop holding out the wrap was so ludicrous the people broke into laughter.

the Spur orchestra, while refreshments of punch and wafers were served by Caterer Weaver.

There were fourteen regular dances and four extras. The committee In charge was composed of Don Overman. Russel Holman, Ben Lurle and Frank Peters. Muncie Frees.
A NEW WAY. Here is the way the papers will write up weddings ten years hence: "The bride looked very well In a traveling dress, but all eyes were centered upon the groom. He wore a dark suit tht itrd h? form perfectly and in his daintily gloved hand h carried a small rose. His curly hair was beautifully done, and a delicate odor of hair oil of the best quality floated down the aisle as he passed. The young people will miss him now that he is married. He is loved by all for his many accomplishments, his tender grace and winning ways. The bride commands a good salary as a bookkeeper and the groom will miss none of the luxuries to which he is accustomed. A crowd of pretty men say him off at the depot"
of her daughter. Miss Arabia. Marie Brehm. to Mr. Fred Harold Arers, formerly of Dayton. Ohio, but now of Richmond. The wedding; will be celebrated in the early fail. The brideelect is a most accomplished young woman. She formerly attended Earlham College, later going to the French Convent at Asheville, North Carolina, where she studied music and French. The groom-to-be is electrical contractor for the Craighead Electrical company and daring his sojourn In this city has made for himself a host of friends both in business and social circles. The wedding will be a church affair and promises to be one of the most elaborate events of the early fall. The young people have the beat wishes of their hosts of friends for a most happy future.

ORVILLE HAROLD. Orville Harrold, who will appear at the Gennett on Thursday evening, September 12th, met with an overwhelming reception at Muncie, his native city, on Thursday evening where he opens a tour of five of the leading cities of Indiana before his return to New York. His reception amounted to an ovation, Mr. Harrold being recalled repeatedly and a leading critic stating that he demonstrated his right to the title of "the greatest living tenor." Mr. Harrold, as every one knows, was the sensation of the London season last Spring when he appeared there under the direction of Mr. Oscar Hammerstein, the London public going wild over this hitherto unknown operatic singer. For Mr, Harrold not
alone possesses his glorious voice but a wonderful personality and attractive stage presence. His coming to Richmond under the auspices of the Music Study Club is one of the interesting events of the early season and no doubt a large audience will greet him.
