...farmer's wife tossed a little do in her Middleburg, Va., backyard-and charged $35 a couple admission. And why not? Hostess Elizabeth Taylor Warner was sponsoring a political fund raiser for Republican Gubernatorial Candidate John Dalton.

The most opulent place in town is Pisces, where the decor runs to old R.K.O. set designs, 1,000-gal. shark-filled aquariums, 18-ft. laser-lit cascades and tropical flora. Members include Liz Taylor, Gregory Peck and Alejandro Orfila, secretary-general of the Organization of American States, who last October auctioned off three rare 24-in.-high falabella ponies on the dance floor.
