That's how it happened that Robert Ten Eyck Stevenson first visited the Cornell home on upper Fifth Avenue. And both the debutante and the designer enjoyed the- visit so much that there were other visits, many of them, afterward. And, Miss Marion Gillett, a friend of Miss Cornell's, r told what happened a few weeks later: "The two of' them Claire" and Bob called for me in the Cornell limousine. They hurried me in and started uptown, stopping at Claire's home for a bag and some clothes, and for a man: We drove and drove and drove. . friend of Bob's. I went to sleep. They woke me in Port Chester. went into the house-oJustice of TIfi was" late at" night "ancT he'd been aroused from sleep. Bat he married them." Afterward they drove back to New York and rented a room on the top floor of the house in which Miss Gillett lives. They, intended to, say nothing about their marriage for a whilp.; But the chauffeur who had driven them: on their elopement whispered the news to the second foot man and he told the butler. The butler passed it along to the housekeeper and fche told Mrs. Cornell's maid. So, of course, Mrs. Cornell heard of it the very next' day. . ' "What!" she gasped, "that young man who designed Claire s masquerade eostumei I don't believe it!" And perhaps she thought of the years spent in careful grooming of the society girl for a mar.' riage. .to petition and wealth. ;,. - "But .Bob has a great future," his wife" argued later. "I suppose he is poor compared with the young men I've - known- - all - my - life. Some . day-hwill be a famous artist and I shall know that his success is built partly . tnon the inspiration I've been to him. - 'Meanwhile, we' are so happy that I , don't mind doing without some Of the thing I've always had around.". That she believes in not doing without things ; seems indicated, however, in a suit filed jointly with her mother a few days later against Frederick Goldsmith to recover a diamond ring which, they claimed to be worth $20,000 They obtained $10,000 on the ring, which they 'say is " nineteen 'caraU in weight," 'fclilidugh oidsmitlit was the -says, told them the diamond if .J. complaint '.' .

"I'll learn to Cook if necessary,'! retorted the daughter of Mayfelr. "Besides Bob is doing so well that we're going ,to move to" a Uurar.ftr.udtd soon. And we're not lonely, either, j Still keeping most of our social engagements V' X The other girl, who traveled from "riches to rags" with a smile and the companionship of love, Pearl Howell of Broadway; has settled down to live with her husband's parents in a cottage, in Flatbush.
