Counting anese sums, the venerable
building has cost, from the beginning
down to the present. the surprising sum
of $4,000, 900. OF this large aggregate
$1,000, 900 has been spent in finishing,
furnishing and caring for the building
since 1897; $762, 900 in repairing it since
1897; $4,000 in improving the grounds

CALL FOR A NEW
WHITE HoLSE
Perhaps Uncle Sam Will Be Willing
to Spend Something on the Next
"First Lady Of the Land"

The growing demand upon our chief
executive for more lavish entertainment
n a greater number of diplomatic re-
ceptions has started anew the spasmodic
agitation of past years for a new and
larger mansion for the presidents fam
ily.
The subject is receiving serious con-
sideration from the national lawmakers.
Washington people hardly fancy the
proposition of an entirely new white
house, for everybody is attached to the
Old mansion, with its many associations.
The disposition is rather to add a sepa-
rate building close by for the use of the
presidents household. The OH place is
a treasure-hOuse of national and histor-
teal relies, and it would be a pity to re-
place it.
In view of the talk about a new white
house 1T is worth while knowing what
the present hite house. has cost. The
first funds for the building We're not fur
nished by Uncle Sam. AS it was the first
public building i'm Washington, a great
deal OF care was exercised in getting the
best possible plans. A munificent pre-
mium of $500 was offered for the finest
design, and this was prepared by a
young Irishman named James Hoban,
then of Charleston, S. C. who shaped
his model closely after that of the duke
of Leicester's mansion in Dublin. His
plan was for "a three-story structure,
but so great was the public cutlery
against this proposed extravaganza tl.at
g refused to appropriate the peo-
Plies money for it, and the first commits
sloners of the district We're constrained
to reduce the design to two stories and
basement, with a frontage of ITO feet
and "a depth of 68. feet. The necessary
funds We're supplied by the states of
Virginia and Maryland. Virginia con-
tTibuted In all $4,000 n Maryland
$4,000. General Washington, however,
brought his influence to bear upon con-

materially reduced. During Hayes
term $4,000 was expended for furniture
and repairs, during the GHarfield-Arthur
being for the complete refitting Of the
mansion with modern ~conveniences and
substituting the present beautiful screen
of jeweled glass in the vestibule for the
old wooden PARTITION: during Cleveland's
administration $74. 900, and during Har-
rison's 500, 600. OF late years the aver
age outlay has been about $25, 10000 a year.
The repairing of the white house is one
of the important features OF these annual
repairs. Enough white paint has been
daubed ON the porticO pillars, Tor in
stance, to double their present diameter,
If the old paint had not first been re-
moved before the successive new layers
We're applied.
1t may seem GURUS that a building
on which three millions have been spent
should NOW be inadequate for the pur-
poses to which it is devoted. But the
fact is that the white house is capable
of providing the president only with
offices and with rooms for social recep-
tions. There are only five bedrooms at
the disposal of the mistress of the white
house, and only a dining-room, a sit
ting room, a parlor (the Red room) for
the privacy of the household circle. Of
course the presidents family are free
to use the East room and the state din
ing-room if they choose, but these are by
tradition reserved chiefly as public re-
tSplIoIl CIdIiiDeiS, dlA, tllOuSH HlosC
handsomely furnished, are NOT particu-
larly inviting to a quiet family.
The late Mrs. Harrison made vigorous
efforts to remedy the situation by advo-
eating the addition of wings to the pres
ent building-not for her own occupancy
and enjoyment, as she pointed out, but
for the comfort and convenience of her
successors and for the provision of a
home which might be creditable to the
executive of the greatest nation on the
globe" ..
If her plan had been taken UP, or if
Mr.. Grover Cleveland when president
had looked with favor on the bill passed
by the senate in 1885 to construct a sep
arate dwelling in the rear of the white
house for the living apartments of the
presidents family the executive mansion
Of the United States would equal in
magnifcence any royal palace Of the
Old World.

This course ON her part caused a great

CLEVER AMERICAN
WOMAN ABROAD
lhe Wonderful Achievements of the
Woman Who is Known to Fame
as Lady Randolph Churchill.

The marriage of Lady Randolph
Churchill to young Lieutenant West
unites two persons that are illustrious
i'm family and notable in many fays, not
THE least of which Is the service which
both have rendered England i'm the re-
cent war.
Lady Randolph Churchill is one of the
most famous living women; she is dis

brighten. Only % ait most, he has fought
In one campaign and been wounded; he
has also served in the queens army in a
civil capacity during time of peace. Be-
sides this he has been honored by the
prince of Wales for important diplomatic
duty. But beyond these things Lieuten-
ant West has nothing of which to boast,
unless Ut be having won the hand of a
great and beautiful woman.
When Lady Randolph Churchill start
ed life it was as Jennie Jerome, daughter
of Leonard Jerome. She was a native Of
Rochester.
During her childhood, in the beautiful
city at THE brink of Genesee Falls. Miss
Jennie, who was one of the three sisters,
often met Thurlow Weed and many other
leading lights Of the american Move
ment," and from them she imbibed a
spirit of the most intense and patriotic
Americanism, which has never left her,
during her married life, in spite of the
fact that she was far and ava the most
enthusiastic tory of all the colony of
beautiful girls THAT have married in
England.
1T is we'll remembered of her here that
at one social entertainment, given a
short time before her marriage, she was
h only person present who showed
much noWledge of the Declaration of In
dependence. She was able to repeat THAI
fine old document of defiance to King
George verbatim, and she did it so we'll,
with sue a degree with rhetorical fire,
and with such AN evident appreciation of
its significance, that she was enthusiast

HUNDREDS OF CHILDREN HAPPY.
TRIBUNE FRESH AIR FUND SENDS LIT
TIE PEOPLE FROM THE TENEMENT
HOUSES TO THE COUNTRY.

The first gun of The Tribune Fresh Air Funds
summer campaign for the year of 1900 has been
fired. Seven hundred and ninety-four little chill
oreh OF NeW-Nork Citys tenements have been sent
10 the country for two weeks of fresh air These
children went 10 the country in seventeen parties
and their going marks the first stage of the sum
lner's work When the preliminary work Of max
ing plans and arrangements has been done in the
early spring and the children have begun to trot
on to the country, the first places to receive them
are the homes, large and small, where consider
aDie numbers OF children entertained at the
same time. There several Of these which re-
ceive children through The Tribune Fresh Air
Fund, and almost all Of them have been opened
and contain at the present moment their quotas
OF city children. Mrs Lye's fresh air home at
Ienafy n. j.. is entertaining its second fortnightly
party of children; the Middletown-Goshen Conva-
lescents' Home near Goshen, N. Y. has been en-
tertaining its first party for several days; ST.
Helen's Home, at Curtsville. Mass. and the homo
at Ashford HILL N Y, received their first parties
on Thursday, and the same day seventy-eight
children went off to the farmhouses near Pitts
field, Mass, where they are entertained through
the Berkshire Fresh Air Fund! On Friday the

the next day the second party of the summer to be
entertained at Mrs Norman w Doage's fresh air
home. near Simsbury. Conn.,, went trooplng out of

Thus July l comes around with all of the homes
open and running smoothly. and with hundreds
Of little children from the city rompng in the
country. All Of these homes will entertain chill
dren throughout the summer in fortnghty par
ties. If The Tribune Fresh Air children were sent
to these homes and to other places there would
still be at the end of the a fine total of
children who had been sent to the country. But
there is another chapter in The Tribune Fresh
Air Funds work, which will begin TO be enacted
this week. This is because there are thousands of
kind people scattered around this part of the
United States in the country villages and farms
who have invited and will invite fresh air chill
dren' to spend two weeks in their private homes
as guests. The Tribune Fresh Air Fund will see
that every one of these invitations is accepted

which filed the streets and lawn and trampIed
the grass, just as the crowds did four years ago.

ceived last week 1t began when the train ap-
Peared at the eastern limits Of the city. Whistles
all over the city Joined in deafening welcome.
