AT THE WHITE HOUSE,
puiiest Day Ever known at the Ex-
ecutive Mansion.

Goldsmith's Deserted Village" was not
more isolated than was the White House
today. The appalling weather was sufIi-
Gent 10 deter even the officeseekers from
making their customary Monday visit, and
the two or three who did buffet the storm
and risl. the danger of being imbedded in
the deep drifts were of the regular class to
whom no obstacle apparently can present
a barrier. OF public men only two had
come up to l o'clock. These were Senator
Mcmillan and ex-Gov. Rich of Michigan.
They arrived in the senator's handsome
double sleigh behind his pair of blooded
banged-tailed sorrels. and were like a pair
of Kriss kingles when they entered the
mansion. Assistant Secretary CorteIyou
who resides out in the northeast, was evi-
IDENTIFY weather bound, as he did not reach
the White House during the day, and the
other officials and attendants had found IL
difficult to accomplish an arrival. A large
force OF men was kept constantly at work
removing the snow from the approaches
TO the building. and had difficult task As
soon as they would clean a way the high
wind would drive great masses of the dust
like snow into the openings and quickly
close them Up again.
Duliest Day Ever Recorded.
Usually Monday Is the busiest day of the
week at the White House, but today will
probably hold the record for being the
duilest day in point of visitors ever record
