MRS. THEODORE ROOSEVELT
Personality of the Wife of the New
Governor of New York.

Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt will not
consent to be interviewed, neither will
she give her photograph to the newspa-
pers republication. She is not naughty,
nor excessively modest, but she dislikes
this form of publicity, and Mrs. Roose-
welt is very much like her husband in
one respect-frm when her mind is
made up. However, the snap shot fiend
has caught her unawares,. and the
newspapers are publishing the result.
1t does not do her justice, though the
likeness is almost perfect. 1t is just
how Mrs. Roosevelt looks on the street
in winter dress.
The mistress of the executive man
sion at Albany was Miss Carow when
she married Roosevelt ten years ago.
She was an intimate friend of the first
Mrs. Roosevelt. She is in the early Dos,
of medium height, with fair complex
ion, dark eyes and hair, and possesses
a remarkable charm of manner. The

most those which relate to Dewey and
the CIV, nts prior to and following the

than q boy at tho time, and naturally
was attracted to Lieutenant
