An EXCELLENT HOUSEWIFE
Mrs. Roosevelt Manifests Tact and
Good Management.
Few Changes at7thel White House
Under the New Regime-Beftef
Quarters for the Sersants-No
Costly Furniture for the Children.


Seldom in its long ihfstofyshas the White
House had a mistress in whom the m
stincts of the true housewife are so well
developed as in Mrs. Roosevelt Her ad-
ministration of the affairs of the house
hold has been marked by tact displayed
by few of the first ladies of the land
The new regime stands in bold contrast
with that so recently terminated. Mrs
Mckinley. on account of her feeble health.
was unable to take an active interest in
the affairs of the household. Mrs. Roose-
welt carefully supervises everything Her
foresight and thoughtfuness are marveis
to the White House attaches and ser
wants.
There are evident in the historic dwell
ing place OF Presidents fewer changes.
perhaps, than ever before at shifting OF
Administrations. One of the first things
President Roose .elt did after entering the
White House was to declare that he did
not desire any alteration or enlargement
of the mansion. Mrs Roosevelt has taken
the same view. despite the fact that the
living apartments In the west side of the
mansion are inadequate for the needs OF
the Roosevelt family.
The most notable change at the White
House during the present Administration
Is IN the governing nj Oh tHs seTN diil-. Dy
Mrs Roosevelts orders no employe of the
household can be discharged except by
consultation with her. This change came
when Henry Pinkney, the Presidents for
mer body servant, succeeded w. T. SIN
clair as steward OF the White House. For
merly all the servants were under the di-
rection and supervision of Sinclair. His
rule is said to have been rather a harsh
one and consequently there is relief
among every one from scullion to butler.
Pinkney's duties consist of looking after
the White House larder and making all
purchases.
Just as the living apartments for the
Presidential family are insufficient for its
needs, so Mrs. Roosevelt found the same
cramped condition In the servants quar-
ters. Straightway she began 10 plan
She made a thorough tour of the man
sion from cellar to garret- In the last
place she found plan for relief. After
consultation with Col. Theodore a. Bing-
ham. Superintendent of Public Buildings
and Grounds, orders were given for the
construction of three servants rooms in
the garret These are now occupied by
the white servants. while the negro ser

preferred against him by one of the con-
ductors of the Capital Traction Railway
Company. After arriving at the station
Captain Walker deposited SO collateral
for his appearance in Police Court Non
day morning.
Captain Walker was very indignant at
having been arrested, and when seen at
the stationhouse by 4 Times reporter, said
the fault lay entirely with the conductor.
The captains right hand was bound up
with a bandage. as was his right leg, the
result of a bicycle collision some days ago.
He said he had boarded the car en- route
to his home. and owing to his injured limb
had taken n front seat.
While seated there, he said the conduc-
tor passed by him collecting fares. and

wants will remain in the old rooms in the
basement. Each OF the new rooms is
neatly though plainly furnished. Their
location at the top of the building will
give the occupants superior ventilation
The famous East Room is once more in
winter garb. A new Brussels carpet, with
a nap so thici, that footballs are scarcely
audible covers the floor. 1t is deep gold
in color and hnrmonizes with the dark
yellow OF the heavy damask curtains and
the gilt decorations of the woodwork. 1t
required 500 yards of carpet to cover the
broad floor. and 81 100 was the cost.
The President and Mrs. Roosevelt have
selected as their room the apartment for
merly occupied by the cievelands The
room which has been assigned as sort
of playroom and nursery for the Roose-
welt children was, when Mrs. Roosevelt
came to the White House, furnished in
mahogany. Mrs. Roosevelt at once de-
clared against the beautiful chairs ana
tables being kept In the room where they
might be marred or scratched by the
children at play. She ordered the costly
furniture removed and palmer articles
substituted.
Additional beds have been placed in
several of the rooms. Much of the time
the children, while in the house, play IN
the broad hallway which runs the length
of the second floor.
A number of minor changes will be
made this fall in the arrangement or
shrubbery and flower beds in the Wnite
House grounds. The earth in the flower

Mrs Roosevelt takes a walk around
the White House grounds every morn
ing She seldom fails to visit all parts
of the expanse of parking behind the
White House. She is very fond OF
flowers, and visits the Conservatives fire.
quently There have been no changes of
note made by the head gardener, Mr..
Pfster, who has had charge of the con-
servatories for years and who always
prepares the floral decorations for the
social functions at the White House.
The RoOsevelts have brought little fur
niture of any description to the White
House with them. The President has not

skins, trophies of the chase. sent on from

According to his statement, he cautioned
the man to be more careful. A dispute en-
sued, during which the conductor, Captain
Walker alleges. threatened to eject him.
The captain admitted having struck at the
railroad man. but denied that he hit him.
AT this juDcture Policeman Martin was
called and placed the passenger under ar
rest His demand that the conductor be
escorted TO the stationhouse also was not
complied with.
Captain Walker was formerly with the
