PERSONALITY OF PRINCESS ALICE" OF WHITE HOUS

| al march. In Japan she received moi
only royal attentions. but was given a
| popular ovation of ''banzais" such as
the people of Nippon never before gave
woman. In China she was received
by the empress dowager. and to cap
| all she was offered the hand and the
| heart of the redoubtable sultan of Sulu.
After all this old world homage. like a
good. sensible girl, she comes home to
marry a plain American, If Dame Ru-

being Congressman Nicholas Long

We are fairly familiar with 1.-The son

not been brought so much to our at

The change is a relief 1t is too fire.
quently the case that where young men
are proud of their fathers the fathers
have no apparent reason for being
proud of the young men. There should
be reciprocity in that sort of business.
Perhaps e Is a fact, as SO often claim
ed, that boys resemble their mothers
and girls their fathers At any rate,
Alice Roosevelt is her fathers daugh-
ter. 1t is related that one of the
knickerbOckers. after seeing the zest
with which she danced. remarked in
his languid way: bah Jove, How
stwenuous. She is chip Of the old
block
She Won the Prize.
1t was not always so. Just after her
debut the daughter of theaNvhite House
did not appear particularly strong She
was but slip of girl. and her friends
observed with concern that she tired
easily. 1t was then that the president
interviewed. He advised athletics and
outdoor exercises, especially riding.
The present of fine horse accompa-
MED the advice. also the offer of q gold
mounted riding whip as prize for pro-
ficiency in the saddle. The whip was
TO go either to Miss Alice or her broth
er Ted and should he. awarded to the
one that showed the greatest advance
ment In given time 1t is worthy of
note that the daughter Won the prize.
Nor was this the only result. The air
Of WEAKNESS disappeared, and there
was gain of fifteen pounds In weight
1t Will be remembered that in his boy
hood President Roosevelt himself was
quite delicate. The strenuous life in
the open was chosen deliberately to
improve his health. So the daughter
has followed In her fathers footsteps
in more ways than one.

Miss Roosevelt is evidently becoming
used to the white light. When Il
young man showed her the morning pa
per containing fulsome notices of her
own doingS she said:
"Oh, l am used TO that. Wait until
you're the presidents daughter" He
is still waiting.
Almost Caused War Between SuItans.
The story of the sultan of Sulu ask
ing Miss Roosevelt to be his seventh
wife-or was. it his fourteenth has
been told 80 often it will not bear re-
peating, but the tale of how she almost
caused war between this same sultan
and II rival chief is not so familiar
The rival gave the fair American an
exquisite necklace of pearls, and the
smile that she bestowed upon him
drove the sultan into II jealous rage.
Rushing TO her side, he jerked from
less pearl. Bowling low. he presented
1t. The recipients smiles seemed to
mollify his rage, and the incident end

After meeting the mikado of Japan

his opinion of the presidents daughter

The whole world gasped when the
president went down in a submarine.
but very few knew that his daring
daughter had preceded him in such
feat by two years, having gone to the
bottom of Narragansert bay in the
MOccaSin. She was the only woman at
that time who had ever descended IN
such craft.
Doesn't Understand Like Mother.
Miss Alice's mother died in giving
birth TO the daughter. but the present
Mrs. Roosevelt has been as much a
mother to the girl as her own could
possibly have been. The following lit
tie anecdote prettily illustrates this:
Her teacher at school had been in
quiring for Mrs. Roosevelt, who was
I'll, and Alice answered plaintivcly:
''She isn't much better yet. Yes. it's
pretty hard. Papa stays at home most
all the time, you see, and that makes
It dreadfully inconvenient.'

there at even quarter past he doesn't

indicates at least a wish to be kind
hearted. When walking in the park
one day Alice, then a child. sought to
comfort a little boy who was scream
ing and bowling because his toy bal
loon had got away and disappeared
amid the clouds. Patting him on the
back, she said in a comforting tone:
"Never mind about your balloon, lit
tie boy. 1t has gone to heaven, and
when you die you will get it again"
The daughter of the White House is
versatile in her accomplishments. She
plays and sings as well as most young
ladies of her age. is more than a fair
portrait and landscape painter, is
first class horsewoman, dances well
and enthusiastically and is even said
to regale her girl friends with fancy
dancing and athletic feats of u high
and artistic order To cap all, she is
n sleight of hand performer of more
than amateur ability. In tricks that
require hat she uses her fathers
cowboy sombrero. She speaks several
languages. being especially proficient
in German. When Mrs. Roosevelt was
entertaining some German naval Off
