WASHINGTON. May 22-The Infants Eu-
lalia had her photograph taken this morn
ing. and she was delighted with the ex-
perience. as old as it has grown to her.
After her morning chocolate and roll the
Infansa sttired herself In q wonderful
gown OF fluffy stuff, the neck cut shape.
She wore no hat. About her shoulders was
thrown wide scarf of China silk reminis-
cent of the RAINBOW. so delicately shaded
were its coIors. Commander Davis and ths
Marohioness of Arco- Hermosa accompanied
the Infanta to the photograph gallery In a
closed carriage, while Prince Antonio and
the Duke of Tomanes went walking. Com
mander Davis did not wear his uniform
The Prince wore light spring suit. with
russet shoes and straw hat. The Infanta
reached the photographer's shortly after
10 o'clock, and spent nearly an hour there.
Several negatives were taken, and the
Princess took the liveliest interest in the
process.
This afternoon the Infanta visited the
Treasury Department and was gwen an
ovation. Assistant Treasurer Meline acted
as escort through the money vaults. where
so many millions of gold and silver and
bonds are stored. The news of the Prin-
cess's arrival had spread SO that the cor
ridor about Mr.. MelIne's Office door w as
filled with men and women. They followed
her progress down stairs TO the basement.
and crowded close behind her as she went
through one of the iron grated doors lead
ing to the vaults. Each Of these doors be-
came nasal checker-board. The corridor
from which the vaults are reached became
a solid mass of humanity. There are three
ing. and it seemed that all of these were
packed into that small. poorly lighted
space. The women were the moro
strenuous In their efforts to see
her Royal Highness. They brushed
aside the men In trying to reach the
grated doors. 1t was the lnfsnta's first ex-
perience, with a crowd of American women.
and she enjoyed it. A look of surprise
passed over Eulalia's face at first and then.
impulsively. she walked over to the graf
ing. and. nodding her head briskly and
with her face wreathed In smiles, talked in
English to her American admirers.
How do you dot" she said. You are
very. very good. thank you go much.
like America. / like the American peo-
Die. 1 like you all. Thank you. Good
bye"
And then she passed on to the next door
and talked with the people there. while q
chorus of "Oh, isn't she lOvelyl Isn't she
sweets' went ND from the recipients of her
pleasant remarks.
After the Infanta had seen all that was
to be seen, she came into the corridor
again, on the way TO the carriage leaning
on the arm of Secretary Carlisle. The
crowd, grown larger by half pressed close
ly about her. and made it difficult for Sec
retary Carlisle's messenger. Richard Green,
to make passage way.
Goodbye. goOd-byew cried the Infanta
to the women, as she passed through their
ranks.
"Good-bve-thanky your she cried again,
smiling. while even the stern face of Mr.
Carlisle relaxed. The Prince and the
others in the party were laughing heartily.
and. they entered the carriages. they
caught the echoes of more 1iatterng re-
marks about the beauty and gracefulness
of the Princess.
From the Treasury Department the In
fanta and her party were driven to the
Washington monument. The elevator had
been held for some time and it was wait
ing when the royal visitors arrived. After
a trip to the top. where some time W as
spent in enjoying the view, the visitors
descended and were driven to the Capitol
Some time was spent in the building. and
the Infanta went back TO the Arlington.
This evening the Infanta was gwen a
serenade by the Marine Band under Prof.
Fancueilli. This was arranged by Secre-
tary Herbert. Tonight she was enter
tanned at sn unofficial dinner given by Mr.
and Mrs. Curry. The excursion to Mount
Vernon has been postponed from to-mor-
row TO Wednesday.
