Ballroom Generosity.

It Is not only in the Sums or in the
college settlements that charity may
find opportunities to shine. For in

girl who Is both unselish and a favor

her own popularity to provide partners
for less fortunate damsels and making
shy and awkward youths happy By
drawing them into the swim. {"
when 1 was a GIRL" says a writer In
the New York Tribune, several of US
who knew people and therefore had
plenty of partners" (this was her
modest version Of her suceess) agreed
with each other that we would secretly

ballroom and that we would look after
the walihowers and see that shy or
embarrassing girls had partners for the
cotillons and suppers. We also prom
ised to each other that We would keep
our organization a secret and would
never parade or even acknowledge the
fact that we made any point Of assist
ing other girls to have a good time.
We kept this little aid society up for
several winters, until we were all mar

REPORT OF COL. ROOSEVELT
IT'S Not Made Public But Said to be
Very Sharp.
Principal Complaint Placed on COmmiSSary
Department Rough Riders Con-
ditiOn Tersely Stated.

New York, Oct. THE Wash
ington correspondent OF the Her
aid telegraphs: Ii Colonel Roose
velt's report has been stitled by
the administration under the mass
of reports of other colonies it has
ueverthelts IS made some noise in
each of the staff departments. 1t
has been submitted to the com
missary general, quartermaster
general and surgeon general, who
have beeu requested to make re-
plies to the allegations 1t contains.
The report, together with these
replies, will be turned over to the
Army Investigation Commission.
The replies III some instances are
quite spirited. Colonel Roosevelt's
I, port does not contain more than
three or four pages OF typewi itten
matter, but it deals minute'y with
the condition of the Rough
Riders, noting the causes thereof
from the time of landing until the
close of the campaign. Its tone
is one of complaint throughout,
with special reference to depriva-
tons which thu Rough Riders are
said to have Suffered.
1t is written in the frank, az.
gressive style of Colonel Roose-
welt, and the copy handed to the
Secretary of War WAS written in
pencil, the others being copies of
this There is no reference to
G neral Skater by way of criti-
cism nor to tue round robin. The
chief complaint lies against the
department of the quartermaste
general, which failed to land and
carry forward supplies that seem
ed to have been fully supplied by
other departments.
The only complaint against the
com missary gen, rails department
lay in what was termed the uu-
pslatableness of the "tinned roast
beef" While not making specific
complaints the report tells of the
condition of the Rough Riders in
any other than rosy terms.
