BY CONSTANCE CARRUTHERS, WASHINGTON. Sept. S.-tSpeclal to Th Be.) Early predictions have It that tha coming social season in Washington will b on of th most brilliant tn th history of recant administrations. It 1 believed that Miss Hln Taft will rnak her debut In oclsty, although sh ha not finished bar educational career at Fryn Mawr yet. One Interesting story which I have heard of lata l to th effect that it will b "bachelor season," There ar a number of prominent baohelor tn official lit here, a I have had occasion to remark In th past. Jf th matron of society plan to carry th season through to th merry and con tinuous tintinnabulations of marring bells they hav undertaken a larg task.

They ar Indispanaabl, and tha nam of any of them will be found on every party list worth notice. But the capital' matrons have decided that a benedict they may b vn better. Whether these gentlemen will select wives from the host of beautiful and talented Washington girls, or whether they will go sutsid of th city for their life partners seems to pussle those Interested In the outoome of their future. For rumor has connected moot of the names mentioned with other names. Postmaster General Hitchcock has been credited with an en gagement to Mrs. Stlckney, a rich widow living In London. Mr. Barrett la. some of those who know him well say, In the midst of a heart mystery Involving a beautiful young girl ef Bogota, whom he met while he was United States minister to Colombia. Captain Itutt's name has been linked with that of Miss Yvonne Towmeiid, daughter of Mr. Lawrence Townsend, former United Slates minister to Belgium.
