Saw President in style.

Although President Roosevelt
roughs it all day about Sycamore Hill
he and Secretary Cortelyou always
dress for dinner, and it is we'll under
stood that any one who is asked TO
the house at night will attend in the
same formal dress as if the President
were in the White House. Hence the
embarrassm of a New Yorker who
went to oyster Bay on business last
week, says the Philadelphia Times. He
had no time to make preparations, and
his outfit when he got there consisted
of just the clothes he stood in
He telegraphed to New York for
things to wear and was enjoying loaf
on the hotel veranda when telephone
message from Secretary Cortelyou in
formed him that the President would
be pleased to see him at $3.50 o'clock
that evening.
There are no dress suits for rent in
Oyster Bay, and the New Yorker sat
en- the veranda and worried. 1t didn't
cheer him any to learn that two poll
ticians who had been asked to the
house that night had brought evening
dress with them and were then climb
ing into it. His predicament having
come to the knowledge of the newspa-
per correspondents, they put their
WdrQfODeS at his disposal.
This New Yorker had never been
able to buy ready-to-wear clothing be-
cause his legs are so long, his girth so
small and his shoulders so broad. But
he got all the contributed dress suits
together, collected all the dress shirts,
buttons and ties in the visiting dele
cation and from this roomful of many
sized and multi-shaped mems garments
built composite whole, of which these
were the component parts:
The trousers of the New York Times.
The waistcoat of the Philadelphia
North American.
The coat of the Scripps- McRae
League.
The shirt of the New York Sun.
The collar of the Associated Press.
The hat of the Secret Service.
The tie of the Chicago Record-Her-
aid.
In this attire he looked about as well
as the ordinary citizen in his evening
clothes. After a pleasant evening with
the President he drove back to the viii
lage where the real owners of the sew
eral articles stood in line in the street
demanding their property.
