BROOKLYN LIFE. McCurdy, of. Ohio; Miss Benson and Miss Helen Warren, of Philadelphia, and Mrs. Harry Watrous and Miss Simpson, of Manhattan, the last named winning the cup presented by Mr. Moore.

The tournament was well contested throughout, and was productive of some very skillful work, the bogey being beaten on a number of holes. Among the spectators were Mr. and Mrs. E. Burgess Warren, of the Sagamore, who came to Rogers Rock by their fast steam yacht Ellide; Commodore and Mrs.

J. Boulton Simpson, Colonel and Mrs. W. D. Mann, Mr.

and Mrs. Millard F. Smith, Mr. Harry Watrous and Mr. and Mrs.

W. J. Anderson. Preceding the tournament, which was called at two o'clock, Mr. Moore entertained his guests at luncheon.

ON and her her way home husband from a formerly trip to lived, North Mrs. Dakota, Edward where Hooker she Smith has been visiting Mrs. James Augustus Ostrom at 5039 Washington avenue, Chicago. Miss Marion Dall, granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Charles C. Whitney, was the guest of Mrs. Ostrom's daughter, Miss Eloise Babcock Smith, during July and August, and has recently made a tour of the lakes as far as Sault Ste. Marie with her. Miss Dall and Miss Smith will spend the remainder of September at Twilight Park, accompanying Mrs.

SOMETHING of an sojourners exodus at has lately Easthampton, taken Long place among Island, but accessions have made up for losses, and it is apparent that if the weather continues pleasant it will be another month before even the boarding houses will want for patronage, while most of the cottagers will, as usual, remain until well on in October. The sudden death, from apoplexy, of Mr.

L. G. Woodhouse, one of Easthampton's foremost summer residents, cast a gloom over social life and, though the Saturday evening dance at the Maidstone Club took place as usual last week, many absented themselves. Mr. Woodhouse had been a prominent factor in the club and his loss will be greatly felt.

This week the chief event out of doors is the blind handicap contest at golf, for the Directors' Cup, which was scheduled for Thursday. The course was never in better condition and a strong entry list was received. The Wheelock Cup, ladies' handicap, is also engaging much attention. On Wednesday of last week the qualifying round was played, the low score of 100 being returned by Miss M. M.

Ingraham. Miss Louise Tousey returned 134, which enabled her to qualify. The familiar query as to who is going to build this winter has been stimulated by the transfer of several desirable land sites. Mr. and Mrs.

Henry Sanger Snow spent a few days in town last week, but expect to prolong their stay at Easthampton until the first of October. Mr. Irving Paris, of Manhattan, was the guest last week of Mr. Frederic Gallatin. On Monday evening, the younger set found diversion and entertainment in a "baby party," the company appearing in infantile costumes, which caused no end of laughter, and engaging in children's games.

The attendance included Miss Marjorie Wessel, Miss Louise Drew, Miss Louise Tousey, Miss Dorothy Manson and Miss Trowbridge. An afternoon tea, given by Mrs. Bolton Hall, contributed to the social activities of last week. SEPTEMBER, usual, for is the proving families the accustomed most to delightful season tarry four months of the year in the Otsego Hills. Richfield, on Lake Canadarago; Springfield, and Cooperstown, on Otsego Lake, are now linked into a tripartite alliance socially, and the round of gayety is more marked just now than at any time earlier in the summer.

The presence of General Joseph Wheeler at the Kendallwood, Richfield, has put several matrons in a flutter endeavoring to entertain in his honor. Tuesday Mr. John Clay Calhoun entertained the General at at the Tunnicliff cottage. Miss Julia Calhoun and Miss Annie E. Berry, of Brooklyn, were among the guests.

Mrs. George W. Childs will give a dinner this Saturday evening for General Wheeler and Colonel D. L. Magruder, U.S.A.

(retired), and Mrs. Magruder will entertain him to-morrow at the Earlington. Mr. and Mrs. Albert C.

Bostwick have closed "Vergemere," their fine country place at Orienta Point, Mamaroneck, and are now with Mrs. F. Ambrose Clark, the sister of Mrs. Bostwick, at "Iroquois Farm," Otsego Lake. When Mr.

Clark became of age, two years ago, and fell into possession of his large share of the estate of his father, the late Alfred Corning Clark, he immediately secured the magnificent property that now bears the name of the famous Indian tribe. The farm is a gentleman's country estate with the paddock predominating, and it is here that the Bostwicks will tarry until Mr. and Mrs. Clark and their house-party go down for the Westchester County Horse Show.

J. LEE TAILER is entertaining her younger brother, Midshipman Archibald Sterling, of the United States Naval Academy, at "Bella Vista," the Tailer country place in Main street, Richfield. Mr. Sterling is a decided acquisition to the Waiontha Golf Club, and has been a favorite at the course for the greater part of the summer. Mrs.

Yates Sterling and Miss Sterling were at Chuzenji, near Nikko, Japan, a few weeks ago, and it is not likely now that they will return to Baltimore before mid-October. Miss Bourne, the fascinating daughter of Commodore Frederick G. Bourne, of the New York Yacht Club, and Miss Mary Chaffee, of Brooklyn, are now at "Fernleigh," guests of Bishop Potter and Mrs. Potter. Brigadier-General Morris C.

Foote, U.S.A., and Mrs. Foote have concluded their stay at "Edgewater," Otsego Lake, where they passed the summer with Mr. and Mrs. G. Pomeroy Keese and Miss Elizabeth Cooper Keese.

Mr. and Mrs. John M. Bowers and Miss Martha Bowers will not return to Brooklyn until the last of the month. "Lakelands" is charming these days, for the foliage is just beginning to show the effects of early frost, though the massive oak and elms retain as yet most of their summer verdure.

Mrs. Franklin Woodruff and Mr. A. Van Sinderen Woodruff returned to Brooklyn Thursday, after an extended stay at the Berkeley-Waiontha, Richfield. Mr.

and Mrs. Ballard McCall are at Cary's with Mrs. John A. McCall and Mrs. Darwin P.

Kingsley, who intend to remain at Richfield until early October.

Few country places in northern New York command a more charming vista. On a clear autumnal day the peaks of the Catskills are discernible from the turret and lookout.

Miss Marie Wood, Miss Florence Coverley, Miss Mabel White, of Larchmont, New York, and Miss Madeline Thomas, sister of the groom, are to be the bridesmaids. AT the Greenwich Inn, Sound Beach, Connecticut, last Monday evening, Mrs. Thomas Dale gave a very successful heart party.
