THE ALLrPOWERFUL SOCIAL SEC
RETARY.
Rulers of the Old World who ap-
point as grand masters of ceremonies
men old in years and in experience,
and familiar with all details of social
etiquette, would undoubtedly be sur
prised, to say the least, If they
knew that the President Of the United
States has put the burden of similar
duties on the shoulders of young
woman. Although Major Charles Nc
Cawley is supposed by many to be
the one in charge of all social affairs
in the White House, it is known only
to the few that the real power be-
hind the throne" is Miss Hagner.
known as Mrs Roosevelt's secretary.
Few women. if any, hold positions
which require more clear judgement,
knowledge of the fitness Of things or
which carry more responsibility with
them than the one occupied by this
young woman. The making Of lists
of guests. the discrimination neces-
sary in sending out invitations for
different entertainments, receptions,
dinners, ETC.. all is left to Miss Hag-
ner. She makes all the plans for the
social season, and with the assist
ance of other secretaries carries
them out. There is not one person
whose name is on one of the lists
whose character. position and social
standing has not been investigated,
and Miss Hagner's word as to the
propriety Of inviting such and such
persons at different times is final

HOW TO DRESS WHEN TRAVEL
ING.

There are very few women who
know how to dress and just what
is required when travelling, says the
Newark Advertiser. The hat first
of all is most important. 1t must not
be trimmed one. with trimmings to
get dusty and untidy looking. A
short black sailor is the best, and
they are as a rule becoming. They
may be trimmed with a beau or
wings. but everything must be sim
pie. Then these are comfortable.
The wearer may lean back in her
seat, and rest comfortably without
removing her chapeau to do so. A
small turban is also smart and just
the thing for travelling A dress of
the soft silks. or better still. pretty
and becoming long coat of the same
materials. are indeed blessing.
Those dresses that crease are not
for the woman who travels. 1t is her
duty to keep looking as fresh and
cool as possible. and she could never
accomplish the effect with some of
the new materials which are so much
in vogue these days. Mohair is the
best. and it looks nice. A pair of
comfortable Oxfords are necessary,
with pair of slippers FOR resting.
In gloves one mannish pair of dog
skins is necessary. while one or two
pairs of the lighter weight and lighter
color come in very handy. A pair
of silk gloves for possible hot day
are also essential.
Flat neckwear will serve best.
An extra veil does services.
A macintosh is a necessity.
If rubbers are carried let them be
of the heelness sort, which viii not
take up gread deal of space. As
for handkerchiefs, one can never have
enough of these. Let the toilet art
icles be light in weight and choice
and net numerous. A bottle of
There are innumerable articles for
travelling which women with full
purses possess. but it is always best
to have the baggage in as small a
quantity as possible.

the other day that Mary Skinner,

the robes of the supreme court justi-

UNIVERSITY FOR TEACHERS.
THE APEX OF MIR. PEABODY'S
NORMAL SCHOOL SYSTEM.
One Million Dollars Appropriated for
the Establishment of the George
Peabody College For Teachers
at Nashville, Tenn.

Washington, Jan 25.-By practi-
cally unanimous vote, the board OF
trustees Of the Peabody Trust Fund
today at it's annual meeting in this
city decided to appropriate s1,00O.e00
for the establishment Of the George
Peabody College for Teachers at
Nashville, Tenn. The original thought
expressed by George Peabody in his
trust letter of 1867, and also by Hon.
Robert c. Winthrop, chairman Of the
board for many years, found express
sion in the action of the trustees to-
day.
After full discussion Of the educa-
tional question and the intention of
Mr.. Peabody, vote was taken on the
proposition to appropriate $1,000,00O
for the George Peabody College for
Teachers at Nashville and it was car
ried, the appropriation for that pur-
pose being made by a vote that was
unanimous. The vote on the question
Of dissolving the Peabody ttust was
followed by considerable discussion.
Several members expressed very pos
tive opposition to the move to disso-
lutte, and when the vote was taken it
stood II to 2.
The city Of Nashville and the state
OF Tennessee agree to contribute
three-quarters Of million of dollars
for the use Of the new institution. The
board resolved to spend balance OF
the trust fund in the southern states
It will be remembered that Mr.. Pea
body made this ,unifcent bequest in
the interest Of the twelve southern
states, Just after the war of the states
had closed. It is believed to be the
most powerful promoter of education
that has existed in the southern states
for the past thirty-eight years.
There were two propositions before
the board as to the dispotion Of the
fund, ,one was that the fund should be
expended in the establishment Of sew
eral schools. That proposition had nc
supporters today.
= 1t was also decided to close the trust
fund, and the meeting to be held next
October will probably be the fna
meeting of the tustees.

How Banks Are Doomed"

This is the title Of very inter-
esting and suggestive article in the
current number Of Profitable Adver-
tising, in which We are told that the
banks and trust companies of Pitts
burg advertise more widely than those
of any other city in the world, and
that their deposits have increased
many millions Of dollars by the sys-
tematic publicity given to their saw
ings departments. Paraphrasing the
comments of the Philadelphia Record
on this suggestive statement, we would
say that what is good for Pittsburg
banks ought to be good for Charleston
banks. There is plenty Of idle money
in the possession of frugal household
ers and intending house buyers of this
City Of Homes, which would find its
way into the savings departments Of
cur trust companies if they were fully
alive to their opportunities. News
