"Interior Decoration," in speaking
of the furnishing and fitting up of a
boy's room, gives many valuable sug
gestions such as plenty of cushions,
not too much furniture—a few strong
chairs, a comfortable couch and a
desk—a table with a good broad top,
a bookcase for books, a bureau and a
few well chosen pictures, and adds.
Ii the boy has a room to which he
can bring his friends, and of which lie
is proud, he will soon learn to keep
it neat and tidy, and the temptation
to spend 4i!s time somewhere else will
be to a very large degree eliminated.
The ideal room combines strength and
heaviness in furniture.
The October meeting of the Thurs

the club In program this season,
Thursday afternoon, was a well at
tended one, and a splendid program
carried cut. Among those taking part
were Mr. Gladstone in baritone solos,
and Mr. Evans in tenor, appearing for
the first time before the club. Much
pleasure was expressed at their ren
dition of their different selections, and
it goes without doubt both gentlemen
will be called upon frequently, and
will be valuable additions to musical
circles this winter. The meeting was
held in the Wesley college conserva
tory of music rooms over the Wilder
grocery. These rooms have been ten

they will be hardly suitable, the

SOCIETY I\ WASHINGTON.
Washington, Oct. 10.—With the re
turn of the President and Mrs. Roose
velt to the White House early in the
week, Washington may be said to
have shaken off its summer slumber
and a new season had its beginning,
even though the formal duties and
pleasures of the socially inclined cio
not begin much before the assembling
of congress, or at least before Thanks
giving Day. which has long been an
opening date for polite society in
Washington.
Mrs. Rocsevelt, like less exalted
housekeepers, is not without trouble
in her annual homecoming, and be
gins the season with a small army of
mechanics still at work in the execu
tive mansion, where the rainy summer
has wrought not a little damage to
roofs, plaster, and wall paper, just as
in an ordinary ten-room dwelling.
The state apartments have all been
renovated without any change in the
general appearance of the always
beautiful seat room, where the mar
riage of
Miss
Just What
You Want
Roosevelt and Repre­
sentative Longworth took place last
summer and where the president
and his wife receive on all for
mal occasions, and the green and red
parlors, which serve the purpose of
ordinary drawing rooms to the presi
dent's family.
Mrs. Roosevelt returns greatly im
proved in- health by her quiet summer
at Oyster Bay, and will be fully able
to join with the president in the in
formal and graceful hospitality which
they have practiced so continuously
since their first coming to the Whit'e
House.
The absence of Mrs. Longworth
from the home circle will, of course.

the Secretary of the Treasury and Mrs.

The Secretary of Stale and Mrs.
Root are now occupying their sixtii
Washington residence, having just
taken the large house on Rhode Is
land avenue owned by Tenner Vice
President Levi P. Mcrton. but more
recently occupied by the former Rus

under the reign of his daughter, the
brilliant Countess Marquerite, the
merriest house in Washington. Since
the Cassini occupancy, the house has
been completely refurnished, so that

practically a new home, a luxury she

artists of America, a portrait painter

The Secretary of the Treasury and

envoys of whatever rank, preferring
to remain in their summer quarters or
take trips abroad before resuming
their confidential and earnest, if not
arduous, duties with the White House
or the state department. The season
proper for the diplomates does not be

The first of this season's fashion
able weddings took place last Wed
nesday afternccn, when Miss Carolvn
Postlethwaite, daughter of the late
Rev. Wm. H. Postlethwaite, I'. S. A.
cnce chaplain at West Point, and Mr.
Henry Ives Cobb, Jr., of New York,
were married at St. Johns church,
Lafayette Square.
The bridegroom's sister. .Miss
Leonci Cobb, the maid of honor, who
spent most of her childhood in Wash
ington when her father was supervis
ing architect of the treasury, enjoys
the distinction of being the first of the
long line of friends who shared the
affection and confidence of Mrs. Nich
olas Longworth, when that young ma
tron was Alice Roosevelt. Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Ives Cobb, parents of the
bridegroom, then occupied a hand
some home in X. street, near the resi
dence of the then civil service com
missioner and Mrs. Roosevelt, with
the residence of Mrs. Postlethwaite
just around the corner. Wednesday's
ceremony was consequently the cul
mination of a romance begun in the
school days of the bride and bride
groom, although their engagement was
enly announced in the past summer
from Paris, where the bride and her
mother spent several weeks, and
where the bridegroom is a student of
architecture at the Beaux Arts. After
short honeymoon near New York,
Mr. Cobb and his bride will sail for
Europe, where the former will con
tinue his studies.
Velvet ccats with cloth or satin
skirts are again prophesied for win

White pique is much used for the
small waistcoats worn with cloth suits.
Short sack coats of astrakhan, trim

Shoulder capes, if only in the guise
of caps to the sleeves, are ubiquitous
on fait models.
It is said that the charming house
caps worn during the French revolu
tion are to be worn this winter.

THE LION AND THE MOUSE.
The cleanliness of "The Lion and the
Mouse" the powerful dramatic success
which Henry B. Harris will present
here tomorrow evening. Is an element
in the play's favor that has had much
to do with eg finishing its wonderful
popularity, a popularity which has
brought it Into Its second year in New
York and made the engagements in
Bcston and Chicago the most success
ful in the history of those cities. In
building this play, Charles Klein did
not find it necessary to uncover any
phase of life that would be objection
able, hence there are no wronged
women or dissolute men connected
with the story. The polished dignity of
the whole play and the eminent re
spectability of its characters form a
combination which has caused thea
tregoers to wish other authors would
adopt the same style.
"THE I MPIRE."
"The Umpire" will reach Grand
Forks on Mondav bringing with it the
prestige of the most remarkable of
long runs in Chicago—350 perform
ances—and the sanction of every
theatregoer who has had the good luck
to see it. When a musical entertain
ment is enabled to reuain in one
theatre for nearly a year, playing in
variably to crowded houses, it must
possess elements of unusual merit and
this the management of 'The Umpire"
claims for it. Among the- reasons for
its popularity are cited the modern
nature of its theme and the modern
methods of presenting it, the utiliza
tion of up-to-date features—football
and baseball— a most melodious score,
brim full of whistly hits a book re
plete with refreshing comedy, a
chorus of attractive singing and danc
ing girls and a snappy ensemble that
fairly carries audiences away with it
by its sheer spirit. In Manager
Askin's cast will be found Fred Mace,
