they are qualified for service as officers
of volunteers. specifying character of
the service whether line or staff, for
which they are specially qualified. A
special register of the names of per-
sons so reported shall be kept at the
war department. Besides this, upon
the record made at the war college the
name of every regular officer below
the grade of colonel shall be reported
and the elements of his fitness for su-
perior command detailed
The principal advantages which it is
designed to secure are the bringing of
the different branches of military edu-
cation into one system, under the di-
rect supervision of body of officers
whose duty it will be to make effective
every part of the system. The plan
also embodies the establishment of the
general service and staff college upon
the foundation Of the infantry and cav
airy school at Fort Leavenworth, so
that every officer who displays superior
qualities in the lower schools may be
instructed there in every branch of
military service.
General S. NJ. r. Young, who has
been selected as president of Uncle
Sans new war college, is the fourth
ranking officer of the army. He was
born in Pennsylvania in 1910 and en-
tered the army as a private in 1861.
He was brevetted four times for dis
tinguished services during the rebel
lion, the last time as brigadier general
Of volunteers for gallant conduct dur
Ing the campaign which resulted in the
surrender of Lee.
General Young entered the regular
army as second lieutenant in 1866 and
was promoted to the grade of major
general last year. He commanded
brigade of cavalry in Cuba and spent
nearly three years in the Philippines,
part of the time as military governor
of northwestern Luzon.
Remarkable executive ability, great
energy and quick and accurate judg-
ment are General Young's most promi-
nent characteristics. General Young is
at present in command of the depart
ment of California.

chablis to wind up with OF late a
fashion has spread among smart"
people for serving Scotch whisky and
apolinaris right through dinner, in
stead of a series of wines, but this
idea has not been adopted by the mis-
tress of the White House.
There is no question of the fact that
this administration is leading society
as no other administration has done
for generation past. 1t is setting the
fashions and has already given won
derful boom to the amusement of rid
ing horseback. All of the Roosevelts
ride, the president and his wife going
out for gallop every fine afternoon,
and as consequence, whereas former
ly only a few persons in Washington
INDUCED in the pastime, now all of the
young people are taking it up. What
the Roosevelts do is the proper thing,
and everybody is looking to the eXecu-
tive mansion to see whether Simon
says thumbs up or thumbs down.
Such hospitality has not reigned in
the White House for many a long day.
II is Il thoroughly wholesome, healthy
sort of family life that goes on there.
The Roosevelts are living now just
about as they have always done, keep
ing open house and making their
friends welcome. Even the casual
stranger is at home within their gates.

tremely informal. The family hardly

When anybody comes to see the pres
ident during office hours. the latter is
us apt as not to say: I'm busy. Come
back and take lunch" Lunch is at
1880 o'clock in the private dining room,
and Mrs Roosevelt and the children
are present.
Yes, it is a gay and merry admins
tration, but the genial Mr.. Roosevelt, if
he continues to be so lavish in his hos
pitality, is likely to find that his salary
of $4,000 does not cover his bills. He
is certainly not saving any money in
the White House.

Now that congress has taken up Sec
retary Roots plan to establish a great
war college at Washington a decisive
step has been made toward what, it
is confidently believed. will prove of
great benefit to the military service.
The Importance of this new institu-
ton can hardly be overestimated. 1t is
an outgrowth of the troubles expert
enced during the Spanish war. When
the call went forth for volunteers in
the spring of 1898. the recruiting of.
fees were filed with young men anx-
ious to serve their country on the bat
tletield. The difficulty was not TO get
men, but to provide competent officers
to lead them. A man may be brave
and intelligent, but to place in his
hands the lives of hundred men, I'M

fate.
Searching investigations were out of
the question. Private and state mill
tary schools sent their graduates to the
war, but it soon developed that. while
they might be well grounded in the
ory. they We're sadly lacking in prac-
teal knowledge.
Secretary of War Root in his plans
for the proposed war college has taken
comprehensive grasp of the situa-
ton. At the launching of his idea he
says: 1T should be kept constantly in
mind that the object and ultimate aim
of all this preparatory work is to train
officers to command men in war. The
ory must not, therefore, be allowed to
displace practical applications"
Following this idea, he makes study

chased heavy holdings, with the inten..

however, thGt they failed to get the
controlling interest and the Adams,
OF Baltimore, who are largely inter

for the improvements contemplated.
The property is, therefore, for sale,
