Hear In London.
LONDON, July 8-Theatrtcal people are
conspicuous at the Savoy at the supper
hour this season, fashlonabla people at the
Carlton. At both resorts Is a goodly sprink
ling of rich Americana.
Almost any night in the grill room at
the Savoy you will see an assemblage of
transatlantic talent mingled with the home
variety. Rose Stahl comes in as breesy
as ever. The melancholy that she once
announced she had lashed to the mast
must still be there, for there is not the
slightest evidence of its existence, and why
should there be, for "The Chorua Lady"
Is one of the successes of the Strand.
Charles Dillingham and Charles Frohman
are always together, Anthony Hope Haw
kins strolls languidly In, and not far away
one sees Clsale Loftus In a stunning gown
of mauve topped with a pansy hat. Grace
Fllklns. who played last winter In "The
Third Degree," Is with her husband. Ad
miral Marlx; and next in the procession
jomes Phyllis Dare and her sisters, like
Tennyson's heroine, divinely tall and di
vinely fair, as a raptured Englishman de
scribed them.
In a corner of the writing room Herbert
Kate Jordan Vermllye, who has Jut sold
him a play for the, new Repertory theater,
to be opened here tn November. He has
also secured one from the Countess of
Arnuelm, author of 'Elisabeth in Her Ger
man Oarden." and he Is to open with Maet
erlinck's "Blue Birds." Lena Ashley, who
Is to appear under the Frphman manage
ment next season, Is a frequent visitor with
her husband. Dr. Simpson, and Charles
Hawtrey, who Is playing near by In the
latest success, "What the Publle Wants,"
drops In regularly. Lady de Bathe (Lily
Langtry), who lives at the hotel when In
" London, is not seen In the public dining
rooms, but her motor drives In among the
reft' of the supper crowd vehicles, distin
guished by the buff liveries of chauffeur
and tiger and with her pet Irish terrier
Peter she alights leisurely, the remarked
of every eye, and disappears between a
double line of porters, looking hardly a day
older than when she first played to an
American audience. '
The Carlton Is the rendeiveua of mem
bers of Parliament and leaders In society.
Tlaraa are plentiful and lorgnettes ate fre
quent as wineglasses; worn at the proper
angle they denote curiosity toward, sym
pathy with, but no real affiliation to the
professional classes.
Pretty debutantes dally ever highly col
mrw Cea and occasionally arrives a
Johnny convoying a gray haired veteran
of many sentimental battles, the two
girl, who has run In to the Carlton for
a change. ."Although I really prefer a
livelier place," she explains to a friend on
the stairway, where a queue of rainbow
hued gowns, scarfs and supper cloaks
makes a splash of color not easily for
gotten. English people, not chatterers like our
own people at these function, eat soberly,
discreetly, wisely and without hurry or
flurry. They time their repasts so well
that they are quite ready to rise and
flee, with no remorseful - glances at half
eaten sweets and half drunk wine, when
the half after 12 rule of closing Is en
forced. In the Savor Conrt.
The Savoy court was originally Intended
only for the reception of hansoms and
four wheelers. The big taxlcabs congest
traffic in the narrow space and furnish
many an episode to laugh at. Particu
larly violent was the objurgation of one
of the old-timers on a recent occasion.
He was a cabby of the old school, rotund
as to body, plethoric as to face, with a
fine vocabulary and a full grown hate of
the encroaching taxis.
Standing erect at the rear of his shabby
hansom and snapping his whip first on
the protruding ribs of his dejected horse
and then toward the four points of the
compass, he exclaims In answer to the
bobby's command to drive on.
"Oh, yea, It's shove "em out now, ain't It;
shove 'em out. It's always the poor cawby
who's to blyme now. It didn't use ter be
before the taxis came, now did it; but
It's shove 'em out, cawby, shove 'em out.
He's to blyme."
One of the throng exclaims: "By Jove,
he's light In a way, you know. It does
make a difference In his fares now, don't
It? Never thought of it before, but It
surely does, now you" know. You cawn't
blame the cawby, you see, can you?"
Some Americana stop and laugh. The
patriarch of the party gives a guffaw
which rings loud across the clambering
roses, a mid-west voice with Its native
twang unimpaired accompanies It, and the
young man looks at the wreck of anatomy
which Is whipped up anew, then at the
furious coachman and sings out:. "Oh, get
a horse, cabby; get a horse." So they pass
through, while an English girl asks of her
father:
"Get a horse? Doea he mean they drive
their hansoms with two horses in America,
dear?"
Dlffereneea In Faahtona Few.
Naturally the American eye looks for
differences in fashions and finds few
enough. It la not the clothes, but the
way the clothea are worn, the carriage of
the head and figure, the Infection of the
voices that makes the two nations dif
ferent. There Is one English girl who steps
gracefully from a hansom, her escort a
handsome young Englishman, his hat tip
tilted in the mode, his bouionnlere spot
less as his linen, his color the coming and
going type, which really ought In the aes
thetic Bcheme of things, to have been
allotted the American, for it is the only
alert quality that the Englishman appears
to possess. The girl Is a little above
medium height and she has the faraway
look in her eyes as she alights, which Is
characteristic of the English woman, who
holds her gown to her knee and displays
a silk stocking fine as a web and a high
heeled slipper, of tint to match her gown,
or of gold, bronze or sliver.
The glance Is a perfunctory one. You
see it on hundreds of faces, one after the
other, and it seems to mean that you are
not to suppose that a few Inches more or
less of stocking Is of any Importance. It
is not a glance or a display that you see
on rainy days, when ugly overshoes and
lisle thread hosiery are worn and a cab Is
not in requisition.
On this girl's head Is worn a garland of
tiny flowers five or six Inches wide, fram
ing locks of chestnut red. Her gown is a
pale blue charmaeuse and chiffon skirts of
white are flung airily aside as she trips
toward the door. Her coat Is of rose pink,
falling in graceful lines to the edge of her
skirt, open In front and at the decollete
corsage a single blush rose Is pinned with
negligent care. She looks as it she might
have stepped from a modernized version of
an Alma Tadema painting.
After her pomes an American girl all In
soft dove gray. Her blond hair Is worn
without ornament, simply parted and rolled
backward and upward to her ears.
An EngliBh woman, with the figure of a
riding enthusiast, the back long and
straight and shoulders carried firmly.
wears a lustrous white satin without a
wrinkle or trimming to dipturb Its perfect
fit. Her hair Is white and pompadoured
with a splash of tiny curls held In place
by a narrow diamond fillet, her shapely
throat encircled by a dog collar of dia
monds, and her long fingers hold negli
gently the fulness of an orange satin cloak
which shades Into deep pumpkin tints.
Parade t Dassllnr.
The elegance and variety of these even
ing wraps Is a distinct note struck in the
toilette displays. Every woman who en
ters the supper room seems to vie with
the one going before and the one coming
after, and the result Is like a lot of butter
flies, the wings of the sweeping garments
fluttering by until the eye Is fairly dazzled
with the blues, reds, yellows, greens, royal
purples and other colors, Intermingled with
pastel shades and delicate tints. Many are
trimmed with bandB of oriental embroider
ies and all fall loosely, with no attempt to
fit, the soft satins and silks clinging to the
figure.
The very neweBt coats have shoulders
and sleeves shirred together,' the fullness
of the coat coming from the shlrrings, and
many of the old-fashioned modes Nof the
'60s, the so-called Arab draplngs, are re
vived. One of this last named fashion Is
of mauve chiffon velvet worn over smoke
gray crepe embroidered In silver. The
cloak Is outlined with a band of em
broidery dono In silver and falls to the
edge of the trained gown. The coats are
so full and so soft that gathered in the
hand, thrown neglieently from the shoul
ders, they do not detract from the requisite
slimness of the modish figure.
Less of Hair Worn,
Exaggeration In coiffure seems to have
passed. Puffs, curls and braids are still
worn, but not In the overabundance that
emphasized their use last winter. The
few who have the temerity to attempt the
classic simplicity of the Greek style do so
at their peril, for. the fare must be rarely
beautiful and the outline severe without
austerity to achieve the right effect. A
moderate pompadour, ending In a cluster
of loosely pinned hair, arranged low or
high as the face demands, Is the accepted
mode, and the difference between the
American headdress and the English lies
tn the fact that every English woman's
head looks like every other. AH are turned
out smartly from the hair dresser's without
an Individual turn or twist, the waving
perfect, the arrangement mathematically
correct, while the American, having studied
her Individual preference, shows often
times a home made coiffure very becom
ing and unusual.
There are no high ornaments worn on
the head. The' coiffure Is destitute of
decoration, even the combs being hidden,
except for the band of ribbon, chiffon or
braid or garland of flowers. Some of the
encircling bands are four or five Inches
In width, and when of tulle or chiffon
finished with rosettes over the ear are
very chic. The ribbons are run through

the pompadour, and occasionally a single
flower Is seen Instead of the fillet, this
pinned behind the ear.
Manners In Sapper Rooms.
At many tables In the fashionable supper
rooms you see women smoking. To an
American who expressed surprise at the
sight an English man said:
"No hotel or restaurant in London re
fuses service to the woman dining alone
or with a feminine companion and no em
bargo Is placed in any of them against the
feminine cigarettes. Conspicuous? Why,
personally I would never think of looking
at a woman who was smoking any more
than I would at a man. Why should I?
I never heard of such a thing. You're
joking, aren't you?"
The conversation the newly arrived
American overheara at the supper rooms
is as interesting as the people. One of the
super-Englished American women Is ex
plaining the political situation to some
awestruck cousins from the other side. She
announces that an Englishman's wife must
know something about parliamentary do
ings or else be excluded from the current
topics of conversation. in answer to a
casual question she remarks:
"I really cawn't say the exact reason for
that, but I assume that the situation you
speak of Is tinctured by the Chamberlaln
lsm of the Midlands."
The cousins are properly Impressed and
the Anglicized wife raises her lorgnette
and looks haughtily at some of her coun
trywomen who In tailor gowns and hats
are being instructed at the door by the
head waiter that they will have to sit In
the grill room, as they are not In conven
tional evening dress.
Story One Tells.
An American woman tells of an Incident
she witnessed at the reception given at
me foreign orfice to the prime minister
and other officials on the occasion of the
king's birthday.
' It was really a tremendous spectacular
function." she said. "Royalty was there,
and all the members of the embassies In
regulation dress and every other man In a
uniform, the women conspicuous only when
they did not wear diamonds a regular
tiara occasion.
"Just at midnight a fluffy ball of blue
rnirron, rather pretty and awfully fright
I eneil. appeared suddenly at the top of the
grand stairway and commenced to gabble
hysterically in a perfectly unintelligible
; voice. A couple of attendants advanced
slowly and serenely, conversed with her
; in a low tone, and the trio walked quietly
away. Meantime a few lorgnettes had
been languidly raised, one or two people
'half turned around, you could hear from
different quarters in bored tones, 'Oh, an
other suffragette?' nothing more. This
was an example of the votes for women
; diNturhanre at social functions that we
I have read so much about. It was funny
j beause It was so different."
I All at once the lights glimmering under
, the pumpkin tinted or the rose pink shades
! depending whether you happen to be at
I the Savory or the Carlton, began to go out
The last loiterers rise from the tables;
the final cigarette Is extinguished. Through
the court and along the Haymarkat the
single whistle for the taxi or the two short
ones for the hansom sound shrilly said
London's supper hour Is over.
