No entertainment in the ultra fashionable society circles of New York has been or is considered absolutely perfect or correct at which one or both of the Mesdames Astor are not present or to which they have not been invited. The crowning ambition of tfuraspir Ing society man or woman is to have his or her name placed upon the Astor visiting list, and this once obtained gives an entree, to all other houses in the city it desired, and establishes the position of the person thus favored unquestionably. For the last five years Mrs. John Jacob Astor has not been as prominent in society as Mrs. William Astor, and her sole entertainments have been formal eetni-weekly dinners given during the winter season.
