HKRALD AND ST. LOflS REPL'llUC.
Paris. May 31. (Cop right. U02.) Paris
has been transformed by the long-awaited
crrlval of fine weather. A morning In th
Eols has now become a vision of splendlj
turnouts nnd a unarm of fashion and
beauty, afoot and on horsetacl;. Ths
nclsome dust Ftirrc-J up by the r-ipld tran
sit works is the only drawback to perfect
enjoyment. In which respect New Yorkers
have nothing to envy us.
The opening of the open-air mulc hall
on the Champs Eljsees, so long delacd by
the awful weather, has put the Jlnlnphlng
touch to the picture of Paris as Americans
know the gay city.
Never before this season has Paris at
tained such a height of social acthlty. The
society columns of the newspapers are all
too small to record every notable event on
the tapi It is no exaggeration to t.ay that
cerfcody is here, which explains why the
arrivals of well-known Americuns this "week
are singularly small.
Lubomlrskl-Derayps Wrililinpr.
The principal soilety event of the week
has been the marriage of the Duchease Ue
cazes and Prince Lubomlrskl, though the
attendance was restricted by an announce
ment that the wedding would take place in
rigorous privacy. The nuptial knot was tl,-d
in the Virgins' Chapel, in the Church of St.
Pierre dc Chaillot, at 11 o'clock.
The Duchesse wore a dress of mauve
moire, trimmed with white lace, with u
rope of pearls over her shoulder and a hat
trimmed with pansles. The Grand Duchess
Marie Pavluvna was present at the citl
mon. Another important society etent was a
dinner and reception given by Mrs. Atnr
During the soiree. Miss Dodge, nn American
singer, and Slgnor Pontecorvo, an Italian
tenor, entertained the guests.
No section of Pans society welcomed the
adent of fine weather this week more than
the members of the smart lawn tennis
club which ha"j Its headquarters on the lie
de Puleaux, a pretty Island In the Seine,
near Paris.
This week constituted a virtual orening
of the season, as it has hitherto been 1m
posrlble. the weather having presented all
but enthusiasts from going there
The Intercollegiate lawn tennis champion
ship this week attracted quite a number of
smart women and men. who retained tables
for the first dinners and dance next
Wednesday.
31. Cliartnn'n .-.Inllnre.
The first malnee nt M Chartran's beau
tiful residence since their return from New
York was extremely brilliant. The distin
guished guests Included Mrs. Cowles, a
sister of President Roosevelt, and Miss
Roosevelt, her niece; Prince Roland Bona
parte, Mrs. Edward Stern. Mesrs. Knight.
Beach and Carroll. Mr. and Mrs. Maurice
Grau and Mr. and Mrs. Lasarc Weller.
Mrs. George Ingraham gave a successful
amateur theatrical, at which her daughter
appeared to advantage In Wcllhac and Hal
evy's "L'Ingenue" and TriFtan Bernard's
"L'Anglalse tel qu'on le parle " The au
dience Included Mmes. Grlswold. Gray.
Douglgs. Thomson, Palmer. Van Dusen.

Vlllars. Mls Porter. Mls Burden. Mls
Randolph. Mr. Bradley Martin. Jr.. Mr. Hill,
the Comtesse de Bonvoulolr nnd the Com
tesse de Iymvencourt.
Nobody coming to Paris mioses a drive to
the Bagatelle Polo Grounds, which are ex
cellent, excepting that the stand Is o placed
that the fettlng sun glares in the specta
tors' eyes. Among the fair visitors this
week have been the Princee Murat and
the Comtesso de Montgomery.
Mr. "Tommy" Wright, a popular plavcr.
is still 111 with Influenza.
One of the swellest and most enlovable
fetes of the Paris season is that which the
members of the Polo Club give at the mo
ment the season It at Its height. Thli year
the fete will be held June 12 and the pro
ceeds de-oted to two charities.
The entertainment will consist of a top
ical "Revue." written by the Marquis d
Massa, with Mile. Lecomte of the f'omedle.
Francalso and Mile Marguerite Deval as
tho plncipal exponents; also tableaux vl
vants. In which the prettiest Paris actresses
will be seen.
A novel feature of the tableaux will be
singing, notably that by Mile. Hatto of the
Opera In "Romeo et Juliette," In the bal
cony scene, who will add the charm of her
voice to the beauty of tho plastic poes.
A well-known personality In the American
colony has passed away this week In the
death of Mrs. Read, widow of General Mere
dith Read. Mrs. Read had only a brief ill
ness. The literary world h.iR sustained a loss In
the death of Mme. Emlle Durand. known to

CANNOT AFFORD TO
SEE CORONATION
Many Peers and Peeresses Weie
Not Honored With Invitations,
at Their Own Keenest.
SPECIAL BT CARLC TO TUB NEW YORK
HERALD AM) THE ST LOt'IS RKPLTlMt
London, May 31.-(Copyrlght, 1W2.) It 1"
a fact that quite a number of peers nnd
peeresses will not attend the coronation
ceremonies because of the expense. The
royal command to attend could not bo
slighted and. as the Invitation sent Is prac
tically a command, I learn that only those
peers who. In answer to official inquiry,
signified their desire to attend received In
vitations. I understand that n luncheon for the
peers and peeresses is to be served in the
Painted Chamber of the House of Irds at
130 o'clock. So It does not seem as If the
service In Westminster Abbey is to be so
long as was at one time anticipated.
Complain at $10 Platen.
It Is very funny to hear the growls that
nave been raised on all sides at what Is
deemed the extravagant charge of $10 a
head for this luncheon. Several peers havo
declared that nothing on earth shall Induce
them to pay this sum for the luncheon, as
It can't possibly cost so much.
Then, too, great offense has been glen
by the Intimation given to the peers to ap
ply for permission to attend the House of
Lords on this occasion, when It Is an es
tablished fact that thy have a right to
be precnt. There will be a meting on
Monday night, when the whole subject will
be brought up and dlcu'sed.
Stand Ilulne Oterdone.
With June 1 at hand and but four weeks
to elapse before coronation day, London
finds itself a wilderness of glaring, un
palnted stands. I understand the business
has been very much overdone and that
fancy prices, of from $75 to $100 a seat, have
not found takers.
Cheap seats, however, hae been In good
demand and. owing to the length of the
procession, unless the owners of expensive
starids reduce prices, the stands are likely
to be empty. In St. James street and Pall
Mall, rooms overlooking the line of both
processions are still held at $2.3C) to $S,00
for two days, but I notice that most of
them are still to let.
It Is on the south side of the river, how
ever, that the most Interesting hunt for
places from which to view the procession
Is going on. Parties of smartly dressed men
and women are to be seen going in at nar
now, dingy doorways, whose appearance
not even a house agent would describe as
Inviting. After climbing three or four
flights of gloomy. III-smelHng stairs, they
come probably upon a small, badly venti
lated room, for the use of which, after some
bargaining, they will probably pay $50 or
$73.
One poor widow, who has three small
rooms on the fifth floor, where she and
eight children lii-e. has a timid sort of
sign ouulde of the door, upon which she
offers to accommodate ladles and gentlemen
who wish to see the parade at li a heort.
Public cooks and tobacco shops, undertak
ers and grocers In fact, all the shops ex
hibit most enticingly worded placards In
their windows, offering West End value for
South Side prices.
Around Westminster Abbey stands are ob
scuring everything, and the constructors of
these unsightly erections are proving them
selves vandals or the worst type. They
have ruined several magnificent trees which
stood about the Church of St, Margaret.
Their latest exploit has been to overthrow
a statue of King James II-
