Entertaininq Pauperdom.

1t is fad to give parties for the
poor children of the congested East
side, in New York, and when a fash
ion is indorsed by Mrs. John E. Par
sons and Mrs. James Speyer it is
bound to be practiced generally. These
Lady Bountiful parties have their good
and their bad side, and 1t is almost too
much splendor and happiness to crowd
into one day of these poor babies lives.
For one brief afternoon candy fairly
abounds and lemonade pours. After
ward many children will long for that
blissful day to return, which, after all,
is like crying for the moon. And some
children will not enjoy this unlinites
luxury They are accustomed to penny
hockey pokey, and French ice cream is
too delicate. Then their starched mus
Inns are nuisance. and many little
slum baby returns in q bad mood be-
cause of the break in its routine. When
the children went down to an estate IN
Hemstead they were laden with gifts
of dolls and toy horses, and some OF
this unwonted magnificence was left In
the trains.
But Mrs. John E. Parsons entertains
these children more skillfully. She
does not overwhelm her humble guests,
Her aunt by. marriage was Miss Cath
crime Wolf. Mrs. Parsons was the
widow of Cortland Bishop. From Miss
Wolf a famous philanthropist, she
learned the art of aiding the poor. Mrs.
Parsons estate at Rye is big, and the
children are allowed to romp at their
pleasure. They are not burdened with
snowy tablecloths, hand painted china
and a sit-doWn spread. 1t is this care
free playing that her little guests en-
joy. Her stepdaughters, the Misses
Parsons, entertain them; and when this
family goes to Lenox, Mrs. Parsons
sets aside several days every week for
New York children to come and enjoy
her fine estate. These outings are ar
ranged by East side settlements.
Now that Mrs. Speyer is in Europe
she has left instructions that her place
at Scarborough be used for the same
purpose, and trainloads Of children in
the hot weather will be taken to the
Speyer estate for weekend parties.
Then there is James Loeb. of the
Kuhn-Loeb bank, who seldom lives in
his beautiful estate on Rumson road,
near Seabright. This place is open to
settlements, and many other persons
who have their estates untenanted feel
all the better for casting this pleasure
in the way of the hapless children Of
the cities.

SOCKS NOW THE RACE
ST. PAUL WOMEN HAVE TAKEN
UP THE FAD
SaIeswomen in Department Stores Say
the Demand Is Very Heavy, Show
ing That the Fashion Is Not Fol-
lowed by the Ultra Fashionable Only
Women DeItors indorse Fad.

A miracle has come to pass and st.
Paul women have taken up the wear
ing of the sock! A few days ago a
Sixth street store displayed some very
pretty lace socks for women and the
women simply couldn't resist! And
the saleswoman in the department as
sured The Glob yesterday after
noon that "a number of very nice
women had bought them for comfort.
They are so cool, you know said She
That's what they are for, for comfort
in hot weather. Why the last few days
of warm weather we have sold dozens
of pairs"
So that is why st. Paul women have
taken up the sock, for COMFORT SUCH
q fad would never become popular
here for any other reason, for no st.
Paul women would unbend sufficiently
to wear socks merely because it was
somewhat daring fad. AS we predict
ed, Chicago took up the fad readily
enough, but no one suspected that 1T
would not be the society women who
would be the first to advocate the idea
there. Such is the fact, however, and
it is the medical women Of the city
who have taken it up in earnest. The
Chicago Medical Woman's club has
taken a stand for the sock as the prop
er thing for women to wear on their
feet Just why this article of apparel
is preferable to the stocking. certain
members of the club are setting forth
in a vocal ramble concerning hygienic
advantages.
So the sock is hygenic! The combi-
nation of advantages set forth by the
club isn't very convincing to the worn-
an who wears side garters and so does
away with any hindrances to the cir
culation of the blood that might be at
tributed to the stocking. 1t is hard to
believe but there are women who,
though they might wear a sock because
il was the latest" would never wear
it simply because it was hygienic. One
of these women expressed her opinion
of the medical women's proposed
change in foot raifnent as follows:
why didn't the women doctors adj
yccate going without shoes or wearing
moccasins? The sock cannot counter
act the ill-effects of tightly laced or
buttoned shoes when the argument
takes in the circulation of the blood.
Men wear socks, and they do not aver
age a higher standard of health than
women, for all the latter wear the
corset and the stocking and the trail
ing skirt It is safe to say that the
hospitals take in as many. if not more,
men patients than women the year
around, It's simply getting absurd,
this making a bogy of the things that
women wear, this effort to mix the
philosophy of health with the sensible
and comfortable fashions of the time"
This woman thinks that the fashions
of the day are sensible and comfort
able" Well. perhaps they are, most
of them. But another woman says:
SHOULD the sock become the rage
presto! enter the pantalette! The
sock is the natural forerunner of the
pantalette" And it seems probable
that she is right. And, furthermore.
the pantalette will scarcely come I'M

That OeIrichs- Manchester Alliance.
1t is difficult to understand the grow
ing friendship of Helena. Duchess of
Manchester. and Mrs. Hermann Oel-
richs. who is now her guest at Tan
deragree castle. Ireland. When the
duchess was last. i'm New York with
her husband, lodging lawyers and pro-
cess servers, she met Mrs. Oelrichs
through her friend,d Mrs. Norman
Whitehouse. Albeit Mrs. OelrichS is
almost old enough to be the former
Miss Zimmerman'S mother, they be-
came friends on sight, and when Mrs.
Oelrichs came to England the first card
she received bore the elaborate crest of
the Montagu family. r. The Duchess of
Manchester has become quite powerful
in London, and everywhere she was
accompanied by the New York woman.
In her present day of prosperity the
former Miss Zimmerman has lost her
naughty airs. and Is said to be simple
and unaffected once more This change
for the better was inspired by the dow
ager duchess, most sensible woman.

A Siqnal to Move.

Whenever the news is flashed across
the Atlantic that Mrs G. Ogilvie Haig
will visit her mother, Mrs. Aston, there
is wild scurrying in the family or j..
Coleman Drayton, who was the first
husband of Mrs. Haig. Apparently Mr.
Drayton will never be in the same
country with his former wife, and
when Mrs. Haig paid q flying visit
to her mother in September of last
year. Drayton and his daughter, Miss
Caroline Drayton, hurried aboard a
steamship bound for Havana. The
daughter and mother have little in
common, and the former is devoted to
her father. Miss Drayton is a great
heiress, but is SO aloof and conserva-
tive that she is known only to CHOSEN
few She has little in common with
her cousins, the Van Aliens, and at
Tuxedo Miss Sibyl Kane is about the
only girl for whom she cares. 1t is
said that Mrs Haig will visit her moth
er in Newport and simultaneously
comes the announcement that the Cole
man Draytons are off to Europe.
Unusual interest will accompany the
arrival of Mrs. Haig and the public is
always curious to see how society re-
ceives this daughter of the Astors. All
the influence of the mother has awaited
nothing in her daughters cause, and
Mrs. Haig's visits are made quietly.

Of the festivities in her honor Mrs.
Haig's divorce was a sensa tional pro-

and devoted, and goes to see her

Indian Schools, Exhibit.

An exhibition of the work done in
the Indian schools of the country will
be feature of the convention of the
National Educational association,
which opened in Boston Monday. The
exhibit has been prepared with much
care by the national superintendent OF
Indian education. Miss Esteile Reel,
and will probably be a revelation to
those who have not kept in touch with
this department of national life.
Great changes have been made in re-
cent years in the system of Indian edu-
cation carried on by the government.
1t used to be supposed that the best
way to cultivate the Indian was to
weed Systematically out of him every
natural instinct. When an Indian
child went to school every bit of In
dian work was taken from him. and ev-
cry bit of Indian song and play was
repreSSed. The results were so unSat-
isfaetery as to create much skepticism
as to the possibility of making any
thing but a savage of the Indian The
present secretary of the interior takes
different view OF this matter, and the
national superintendent of Indian
schools has firm belief in the saving
grace of natural instincts and ancestral
pride. So the Indian child Of today is
taught to make baskets, beadwork and
blankets and to preserve the symbols
which enlbody the religious and poetic
aspirations of his tribe. Agriculture
and trades are also taught in the
schools. and the girls learn how to
cook, sew. milk the cows and do laun-
dry work.
Indian girls learn very quickly. and
those who come into the schools with a
distaste for housework soon learn to
like it and do it well. The very small
Indian girl is taught housekeeping
through her dolls, whose clothes she
makes. washes and irons. There are
some expert embroiderers among them,
| and they often have good and original
| ideas about cutting and fitting
Perhaps the best opportunity for ag-
ricultural training is found at the Chi
locco Agricultural school. Oklahoma
Here a splendid tract of $500 acres of
excellent land is being transformed
into an immense farm, with the pur-
pose Of making this the great agficul-

The Whitney,s Colonial Horne.


Among the most interesting house
parties of this season have been those
of William C. Whitney at the Garrit-
son house, near Sheepshead Bay. This
old colonial dwelling is admirably plac-
ed on a strip of land that extends tow
ard the bay After the races Mr.
Whitney and small party would run
over to this retreat for the night. His
daughter. Miss Dorothy Whitney. now
a miss of 18, vows the century-old
house is a far pleasanter place than
her fathers rural palaces at Aiken,
Westbury or in the Berkshires. By this
time the Whitneys have gone to the
Berkshire estate. The Garrison house
has a history and was owned by a
famous family of that name who We're
prominent in New York affairs before
the Revofition. This family has prac-
ticalIy died out. but the name has
chung to the estate near the bay.
Near the house proper is an old mill,
and. crudely carved on beams and
planks, are dates as early as 1725. Mr..
Whitney bought this estate about fif-
teen years ago, but only lately has he
converted 1t into a most habitable
country home.
For years the yellow frame house
was neglected. and 1t is surprising,
therefore, that it is so well preserved.
Mr.. Whitney has restored the mahog-
any wainscoting and the plaster cor
nices. The grounds. too. are beauti-
fully kept. and the dog kennels and
stables are brand new buildings. Wis
itors are particularly attracted by the
genuine green marble mantels. These
were doubtless imported from Italy,
and the mantel in the dining room is
carved to represent fruits. Mr.. Whit
ney who has a fine sense of detail,

for this device is .samovar," and the
woman treated her urn like a new toy.
She gave a reception in order to ex-
