THE PRINCESS ROYAL.

Who is the princess royal? A con-
troversy on this subject, similar to
that which was waged over the claim
of the Duke of Cornwall and York to
the title of prince of Wales, has now
been settled by the king. Some writers
contended that the Duchess of Fife, be-
ing the eldest daughter of the reigning
sovereign, was entitled to be addressed
princess royal, while others held
that the late Empress Frederick still
retained the title. A third contention
was that the princess royal can only be
born in that position and cannot sue
coed to it.
1t is now stated that there has been
no transference of title, and the OUCH
ess is accurately described as Princess
Louise, duchess of Fife, and not as the
Duchess of Fife, princess royal.

:. A Character Study Of :.
MRS.
ROOSEVELT !


Roosevelt is a particularly delightful
converser when she chooses to be, but
that is not overoften and only among
her family and intimateS- That pres
ident who complained that he never
knew but one woman who did not talk
when he wanted to think would have
been charmed with Mrs. Roosevelt.
The first characteristic to be noted in
the distinctly American type of woman
is her all round capability in the man
agement of affairs, financial and other
wise This quality of all round BUSH
ness capability New Englanders long
ago named faculty" and it is as mark
ed in the new mistress of the White
House as it was in the mother of
Garfield when she patched her boys
clothes and saved and contrived to
send him from the log cabin home
to college. If Mrs. Roosevelt were
poor woman, she would manage
somehow to keep out of debt and
educate her children, and both they
and she would be always neatly dress
ed and exquisitely clean. Millionaire
Hetty Green, quite apart from her per-
sonal eccentricities, has the American
woman quality of faculty in an emf
nent degree. To transact necessary
business quickly and wisely without
making the least fuss about it, as Mrs.
Roosevelt did when she scrubbed her
a wet towel just as they were entering
the carriage to join the inaugural pro-
cession last spring, delaying the grand
start itself a few moments for the
purpose-this is evidence of that same
feminine faculty.
AS developed thus far, the true type
of American woman-praised be the
godsi-is not sentimental or given to
decentralization of emotion, and she
never has Mysteries. She knows that
violent outbursts only injure her cause
morally and herself physically One
could never under any circumstances
imagine Mrs. Roosevelt losing her head
or throwing up her arms and screech-
ing Faithful to her type, her will is
strong, her reason and intelligence are
self poised; she understands herself,
her family and the world. She has
that high order of both intellect and
conscience which frequently exists to-
gether. To do what is right one must
have intellect enough to know what is
right. Again praised be the gods for
the woman who knows and does and
makes no fussi
1t would be a vital mistake, however,
to conclude that because she has
brains and will power the mistress of
the White House or her type is lacking
in the affections On the contrary, that

is precisely where they are gloriously
endowed Their devotion, whether to
family, friends principle, is deep and
strong as the fathomlessA stream that
flows on forever, but does not waste it
self in spurts- Tt knows better Mrs
Roosevelt would die for her children
none the less because she is their wise
trainer and the director of their edu-
cation, while so far as her own personal
ambitions are concerned she has simply
blotted herself out and merged her ex-
istence into that of her husband.
All the world wants to know what
she will make of the social regime of
the present administration. To begin
with. she is lady to the manner born,
like a queen. While her own tastes are
simple, she is perfectly au fat in con-
ventional social usage. She has dig
nifty of her own which is able to keep
people off when they would approach
too closely. Commonplace familiarity
is destructive of the best social results
and the White House mistress knows
how to prevent it in her own way-gen-
thy and not giving offense. The influence
on American society of such a cool
headed, high bred, intellectual woman
will be pronounced and farreaching
Mrs. Roosevelt is an accomplished
musician and linguist and twill be one
of the very few ladies in the Washing
of the foreign diplomats in their own
tongues She has a noble literary dis
elimination and is well acquainted with
politics. both foreign and domestic. She
dresses richly and carefully, but plain
ly, and always in perfect taste At
home she likes to wear white Further,
the remarkable distinction is claimed
for her of having no fads, in which par
ticular the first lady of the land is enti-
tied to sympathy, for she misses a lot
of fun. She has, however, that rare
sense of humor which is such a saving
grace in a woman.
Finally, and best of all, both this
highly endowed, perfectly bred lady
and her husband, coming as they do
from the SO called first rank of Amer
lean society, are entirely republican
and democratic in their tastes, sympa-
thies and principles.
Socially, the Roosevelt administra-
ton will be one the American people
may be proud of. In refinement it will
be the peer of any court in the old
world, while in republican simplicity
and domestic morality it will be les

although he had had a hard day at
the Office, kindly consented to sit up
all night, too, for her to try the SEN
fences on him as she wrote them, to
tell her whether she got the circumfiex-

writer opened a tiny blue and gold

notes on music at the library. Then
she thought she was ready.

she particularly favored that. He
said it sounded like fiapdoodle. FL

matter in a way acceptable to both,
as married couples should always do,
and she began thus:
Ihere is a subtle something IN the
music of the middle ages that carries
the souls of men back to the most an

The start was made. Then Mrs.
Van Hebrides said:

" KHEN the Roosevelt family
II "a removed themselves and
VMf their belongings into the
w w White House, many per-
& M sons wondered where and
how they would stow all
the children. Such persons did not
know Mrs. Roosevelt, a lady who in her
way is quite as much the head of her
family as her distinguished husband is.
Indeed, if there had been nobody to
look after the finances and the babies
while the husband and father was
away on his picturesque expeditions of
war and hunting where would the
Roosevelt family now be?
Some rich women born and bred in
the United States are crude products of
the untamed soil of liberty; others are
merely made over European fine ladies.
But the feminine sex of this country is
fortunate enough to be represented in
the White House by a typical Ameri-
can woman, the daughter of two cen
turtles of republican culture and free
DOM 1t may be said further that her
type is purely American, found no
where else. The noblest and handsom-
est race of humanity, masculine and
feminine, is certainly to be produced in
the United States from the blending %f
many peoples under conditions of liber-
~ and abundance such as mankind has
never before known.
Edith Carow Roosevelt has in her
veins the blood of English, Dutch and
Welsh ancestors, handed down through
many generations of pure Americanism.
Besides representing the type of her
country women, she has a strong indi-
Viduality of her own, which social con-
ventionality fortunately never could
kill. 1t is irresistible. it is fine and per-
feet. Under all circumstances what
this woman says goes"
Mrs. Edith Roosevelt, the presidents
second wife and first sweetheart, is a
brunette, which of itself makes her. as
Tar as it counts, a good mate for a man
whose blondness inclines to auburn.
She is above the medium height, as dis
and graceful as Queen Alex
andra in her bearing, and she has that
charm, alas, so rare among American
women, a cultivated, distinct voice. If
you look carefully at her picture, you
viii see she possesses the facial marks
of close observer; nose little long
and pointed forward, eyes keen and in
tent looking, not too large, and with a
faint suggestion of the oriental in the
around them. A reader of the
human countenance would conclude
from this that the lady is one who sees
everything, but is not a great talker.
This estimate would be correct Mrs

COST OF vIcToRIA's FUNERAL.
New York.

The sum of $4,000 was required to
defray the expenses of Queen Victoria's
obsequies. Though considerable, this
is not the largest amount spent on a
public funeral.
That of Lord Nelson cost s25. 900 more,
while the burial of the great statesman
Pitt, six months later. cost the nation
a similar sum-
King Edward witnessed the most gor-
geous funeral of the nineteenth centu
ry in London It was that of the great
Duke of Wellington, on which about
$3.50, 900 is said to have been spent
The Duke of Marlborough's funeral
in the previous century cost barely
$4,000, while the more recent interment
of Mr.. Gladstone involved an expen-
diture of only half that sum.
The last rites of the Grand Duke
Nicholas of Russia cost $4,000 more
than that of the late queen. and the
great Emperor William of Germany
was buried at q cost of only $125, 900.
Thirty thousand dollars was spent
on flowers alone at the funeral of the
murdered President Carnot.
