A noted athlete in his university, he possessed a society rating in New York, at Newport and Tuxedo, and on the Continent which was the envy of many a gilded youth born to the purple. On leaving college, despite an ample patrimony, he had curiously enough entered the lists as a newspaper man.
That clever woman had felt her way along from the heresy trial, through Tuxedo and the Independent Theatre and the Horse Show, until they were launched in a perfectly free conversation, and Carmen knew that she hadn't to look out for thin ice. "Were you thinking of going on to the Conventional Club tonight, Mr. Delancy?" she was saying. "I don't belong," said Jack. "Mrs.
She said, gravely, with heightened color: "I was standing by the window this morning, thinking, and it occurred to me that I didn't care to go to Tuxedo.... When did you change your mind?" "A few minutes a that is well, I never really wanted to go. It's jollier in town. Don't you think so? Blue sky, snow er and all that?" "Yes," she said, "it is perfectly delightful in town to-day."
Nothing must be held back. He must be told that she had finished with him forever. In a few minutes Brockton reappeared, smoking a cigar. Clean-shaven and comfortable in a Tuxedo coat, he had the air of a man at peace with himself and the whole world. Laura was still sitting where he had left her.
It came out incidentally that every one at table had been "over" in the course of the season, not for any general purpose, not as a sightseer, but to look at somebody's stables, or to attend a wedding, or a sale of etchings, or to see his bootmaker, or for a little shooting in Scotland, just as one might run down to Bar Harbor or Tuxedo.
As David stripped off his coat, and followed that with his collar and tie, he thought of his steamer trunk with its Tuxedo and dress-coat, its piqué shirts and poke collars, its suede gloves and kid-topped patent leathers, and he felt the tips of his ears beginning to burn. He was sorry now that he had given the Missioner the check to that trunk.
No weather-prophet was needed to tell these hillcountry folk that they were in for a thunderstorm; and for what one kennel-man described as "a reg'lar ol' he-one," at that. Now, under right conditions, an open-air dogshow is a thing of beauty and of joy. At such places as Tuxedo and one or two others it is a sight to be remembered.
"Is it all right?" she asked calmly. "Was dad vivacious?" The young man said: "I'd rather go back into that elevator than go to Tuxedo.... But I'm going." "So am I," said Bushwyck Carr's daughter, dropping both hands on her lover's shoulders.... "Was he really very vivid?" "Very." The telephone again rang furiously. He bent his head; she lifted her face and he kissed her.
Nor could we have learned in the hostile camp the current gossip of Tuxedo, Meadowbrook, Lenox, Morristown, and Ardsley; of the mishap to Mrs. "Jimmie" Whettin, twice unseated at a recent meet; of the woman's championship tournament at Chatsworth; or the good points of the new runner-up at Baltusrol, daily to be seen on the links.
Anthony's overcoat was off before he had fairly entered his room and his coat and vest flopped through the air as Peters shut the door. Whatever the old servant lacked in agility he made up in certain knowledge; as he laid out a fresh tuxedo, Anthony changed with the speed of one pursued. The conversation was spasmodic to a degree. "Where's father? Waiting in the library?" "Yes. Reading, sir."
