CAPITAL TO BE GAY
WASHINGTON PREPARING FOR a
BRILLIANT SOCIAL SEASON.

Renovated White House VIII he the
Scene of Splendid Entertainments
Mrs. Roosevelt and Her social RuI-
ings-New Faces In Highest Circles
When the repairs and alterations to
the White House, now being made. are
completed, that historic mansion will
be, even more than before. the focus
of Washington social gayety. During
the coming winter Mrs. Roosevelt win
have at her disposal more room for do
mestic life and social activities than
any other White House mistress ever
possessed. Judging from present indi-
cations, she will make the greatest
possible use of the renovated. stately
old mansion, and the social life of the
White House during the coming sea
son will be brilliant in the extreme.
For some time it has been believed
that the Washington social season
would open this year at an unusually
early date. The latest report, how
ever, IS ~ iAe tutCl ludtr aIlnousH
Mrs. Roosevelt and her family will re-
turn to the executive mansion during
the early part of October there will be
no great formal entertainments before
the opening of the official season, on
the 1st of January. 1t is authorita-
lively announced that Mrs. Roosevelt
has Informed the ladies' of the cabinet
that their assistance will not be re-
Quired before the date of the great
New Years reception.
Although Washington society has lost
by death, retirement and other causes
some of its most popular leaders, new
faces have appeared, and the life of
the capital promises to be gayer than
ever. For one thing, the gloom cast
over last years season by the death
of President Mckinley has been re-
moved. Another new cause for social
activity is the fact that the invalid
wife of the late president has been re-
placed by Mrs. Roosevelt, who is an
energetic brilliant and exceedingly
able social leader. The latter state
ment may, perhaps, be challenged by
those who hold that she has injured
her popularity by her limitation of the
entree TO the more exclusive of the
White House entertainments. Some of

In the senatorial set probably tn"
most important change is the retire

Their official standing, the influence OF
the former and the enormous wealth

should they desire It.
Prominent among the arrivals in
Washington society is the new Mrs
Chauncey NJ. Depcw, the young and
charming wife of the junior senator
from New York. Mrs. Depew has
moved in the highest social circles of
America. England and France. and she
has won her way 10 the hearts of her
husbands American friends. She is
very charitably inclined ana takes
the greatest interest in sociological
matters. The new mistress OF the
Corcoran mansion is very fastidiOus in
her choice Of friends and prefers in

more than medium height and speaks

long stay abroad Mrs. Depcw's tastes
are decidedly musical.

Mrs. Roosevelt's rulings, especially
those drawing a sharp line between
what she considers society" and "of.
ficialdom," have caused envy and
heartburnings.
Mrs. Roosevelt will probably be COM
PEELED to conduct her social campaign
with little assistance from the ladies
of the cabinet. Mrs. Hay, whose rank
in Washington society is second only
to that of the presidents wife, is still
in mourning. Mrs. Root will probably
pass the winter in Europe for the
health of her son. Mrs. Payne is an
invalid, and the new secretary of the
navy is unmarried and without fe-
male head to his household. The only
vigorous coadjutors of Mrs. Roosevelt,
in all probability, will be Mrs. Shaw
and Mrs. Knox.
A number of changes affecting the
social season have taken place in
Washington, especially in the diplo-
matte corps. Lady Pauncefote re-
turned to England after the death OF
her husband but her place will be ably
filed by Mrs. Herbert, the wife of the
new ambassador, who is an American
by birth. Although Nine. Cambon,
the consort of the retiring French EN-.
bassador. has been here but a short
time. she has made an agreeable I'M
preston, and her departure Will be re-

A comprehensive movement having
for its object the extension of the
American national idea in the Philip
pines and OF Christianity among the
native Filipinos has been started by
the Protestant Episcopal church of the
United States, says the New York
Times. 1t proposes 10 raise a fund OF
81 900, 600, with which a central insti-
tutional church will be founded at Ma
nila and from which preachers and lay
teachers will be sent to other parts Of
the islands where branch institutions
are to be established. No attempt what
ever, it is stated, will be made TO work
In antagonism with the Catholic church
In the islands.
A statement that was issued the 9th
er day in regard to the new movement
was signed by ]. PierpOnt Morgan,
Senator Marcus a. Hanna, George Nc
Culloeh Miller of New York, James L..
Houghteling of Chicago, William H..

In the statement it was said that lit

benevolent intention of the people of
the United States"
The sum mentioned as necessary is
$1,oO0,0O0 J. Pierpont Morgan & Co.

1t was announced that 100000 is In
hand for a cathedral at Manila and
that George C. Thomas, a banker Of
Philadelphia, has given $4,000 to pro-
vide buildings for parish work in con-
nection with the cathedral foundations.
1t was said that of the S1,O00,OOO re-
quired about 100000 is in sight. 1t
was intimated that the giver of the
100000 was not Mr. Morgan and that
the sum came from Boston. Bishop
Brent, formerly rector of St Stephens
church, Boston, will be at the head Of
the church in the Philippines.
At the Manila settlement there will
be nine members of the clergy, two
| trained nurses and several kindergar-
ten teachers and lay missionaries, be-
! cidas n nhvsician II is estimated that
the maintenance of the settlement will
cost about $1,000 year, and the in
dustrial school which will be establish
ed in connection with it will cost about
1000 more. In the school agriculture
and woodworking are to be taught.
