PARIS, June 23---The first models of the Summer fashions as they will be worn at Trouville and other smart French resorts were shown to-day at Auteuil, the occasion being the great steeplechase, the French Grand National.

[About thirty paragraphs of fashion and society news, irrelevant for present purposes, have been omitted.]
 
Sam Goldenberg, who since his escape from the Titanic has been living quietly at the Château Madrid, also left the course immediately after the grand steeplechase, gave a dinner to a few friends at the Ciros and left on the night train for Switzerland, where he will spend a couple of weeks at the lakes.
