Although spacious and comfortably

Although spacious and comfortably
furnished, Sandy Point Farms, the
Newport estate of Mr.. and Mrs. Reg
inald c. Vanderbilt, is not luxurious in
any sense. In no way does it resemble
Mrs. Ogden Goelet's Ochre Court or
Mrs Vanderbilt's Breakers or Mrs. As
tors Beechwood. To begin with, the
house is frame and the broad piazzas
that overlook the water are one of it's
best features. Every room opens out
of these great verandas. Nor is Sandy
Point filled with costly tapestries and
rare objects of art. 1t is essentially
country home and even the usual
Italian garden is lacking. Fountains
do not play on the lawn, nor do mar
bic statues give the suggestion of the
garden Of Versailles. Instead, the fine
ly cropped lawn is studded with lilac
and SNOWFALL bushes and beds of
brightly colored flowers.

Nor is the. interior oppressive in it's
splendor. The living room is a wide
hall, where dancing for twenty couples
is possible. The principal ornament is
the life-size portrait of Mrs. Wander
bilt by Richard Hall. This hangs over
the mantel shelf. Books and writing
desks and oaken chairs fill this room.
The dining room is a simple colonial
effect, and all the woodwork is in
white. A rich crimson covers the walls
and the chairs. There is no gold plate
at Sandy Point, and the china is plain
white and gold. In every other room
simple comfort is the keynote. The
beds are not overhung with rich cano-
pies, nor are footstools provided for the
sleeper to climb to a towering couch
The walls of the bed chambers are
papered in gayly colored flowers, and
the curtains for windows and beds are
printed muslins. Sandy Point is illu-

mother, was shown through the house

ON NECESSITY OF PROVIDING

The Secretary of the Navy has trans
mitted TO the House of Representatives
copy of a letter Just received by him
from George G. Ward, vice president
and general manager Of the CONNER.
cial Pacific Gable Company, In which
the latter requests the enactment OF
certain legislation for the relief OF
conditions in the Midway Islands. Mr.
Ward asks that appropriations be made
for the establishment of a suitable har-
Dor, buoys and light house, for the con-
struction of landing facilities, and for
the establishment OF marines or other
guards to maintain order and enforce
the laws Of that place.
Mr.. Wards letter is an interesting
statement of the conditions existing
in the Midway Islands, which, he de-
clares, are very serious. A ship char
tered to carry provisions to the COM
pany's employees, whose stores were
depleted. weathered the gales on the
way to the islands only to be wrecked
on the islands themselves. The letter
details the loneliness Of the men at the
company's station and the necessity of
irsuring the safety OF the station build
ings and equipment. No government
exists in the islands at present In
his letter. which is now before the
House, Vice President Ward of the
cable company says:
THE United $ Ates government in

requirement, and the cable Is now. and
for many months past has been. in con-

I'VE find, however, that the Difficult

MISSISSIPPPS FAVORITE
son REV. +. w. LAMP
TON. d, d.

The approaching General Con
ference of the African Methodist
Church suggests the
idea to me to say a few words in
behalf of Mississippi's favOrite
son, Rev. E. w. hampton, d. D.,
as his own successor as financial
secretary Of this great connection.
Four years ago when Mississippi
offered him for the place some
could reasonably plead as an eX-
cuse for Withholding their support
that they doubted his ability to
successfully handle this depart
ment. But God, in His all-wise
Providence having seen proper to
take unto himself the lamented
DIR. Hubbard, an incident the en-
tire church regretted, the good
Bishops in their wisdom selected
DIR. hampton to fill the uneXpired
term. Without rejecting the least
upon any of those who have hither-
to managed this department, L
venture the assertion that the of
flee has never been handled better
since it's organization. Like Pres
ident Roosevelt in succeeding the
late President Mckinley, he does
not feel fully licensed to do all
that he might do, because he has
not been elected by the general
church. His work of about three
years as an appointee is only a
foretaste of what we may expect
during the next quadrenium, if
elected by the next general confer
ence. \ man by nature a finan-
cier, strong in executive ability,
reader as well as leader of men,
and polished gentleman, he easily
carries to the office a fitness but
few are blessed to possess. His
work in this State alone, for the
church. Masonic order and race,
towers above that of any other
colored man living or dead, ex-
