The wedding of Miss Alice Roosevelt,
the daughter of the President, and
Congressman Nicholas Longworth of
Ohio. which takes place on February
II, will not be followed by q large re-
ception, according to late advices from
Washington. After having prepared a
list of 1900 additional guests who were
to have been asked to the reception in
the Blue Room" following the cere-
mony. President and Mrs. Roosevelt
abandoned this plan and 1900 persons
in Washington and other cities. if they
only knew their names had figured in
the list, would now be experiencing one
of the most bitter disappointments of
their lives.
The plan for the reception was aban-
doned for several reasons. 1t was
thought the distinction between the
wedding and the reception guests might
be hurtful to many friends of both
families and. again, the number of per-
sons who can comfortably be accom-
modated in the White House parlors

making about 1000 wedding guests in
all. 1t would prove somewhat embar-
RAISING to include one-third of the
guests in the wedding breakfast and
permit the others TO make their way
out of the White House in a necessari-
ly unceremonious manner so the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Roosevelt have decided
to let the original wedding cards repre-
sent the entire guest list.
Knowing that wide interest attaches
to the wedding of Miss Roosevelt and
Mr.. Longworth, the President and Mrs.
Roosevelt today sent personal invita-
tions to representatives of the press i'm
Washington and will accord them ev-
cry privilege for observing the cere-
mony. Special cards have been issued
TO them.

According to the foregoing item,
which appeared in a late issue Of The
Wasp, San Francisco, Honolulu is go
ing to have a visit firm the world
famed French operate singer, Madame
Calve There is a great deal more in
the same paper about the great prima
donna, pertaining to her recent season
III San Francisco. but the item quoted
stands isolated from the stories. 1t is
among the brief musical and dramatic
notes.
Such an inconsequential manner of
announcing her proposed trip to Homo
lulu would, on the face of it, lead to
an inference that Madame Calve is not
coming here to sing, but to enjoy quiet
and rest and a change of climate for
a season.
Nevertheless, if the famed diva is
really coming here, it behooves the
leading patrons of music in this mu
sic-loving community at least to pre-
pare for her a reception worthy of her
distinction in the world Of high art. If
Madame Calves visit should be purely
of recreative purpose, it might still be
possible to induce her to make a public
appearance. FWere it but a single Sc
Iection-say from "Carmen'-as the
crowning number of an entertainment
hI1t al he hU
clans, it would be an event in Homo
lulus musical annals long to be re-
Trembered.
Emma Calve was born in France in
1866. Her debut in opera was made in
1882 in Brussels. The piece was
Faust. a magazine sketch says. and
she Mortified the sticklers for tradition
by discarding the blond wig without
which it had been supposed there could
be no Marguerite. But her raven
locks were forgotten when she began
to sing, and her reception was an ova-
ton
In 1892 she appeared at Covent Gar
Den in Mascagni's Cavalleria Rusti-
cana. Her home address is Chateau
Cabrieres, Cevennes. France.
Amidst a rich repertoire possessed
by Madame Calve, no doubt her con-
ception of the title role in the Spanish
opera Carmen" has occasioned the
chief furore about her in the musical
world. Regarding an appearance in
this character made by her at Covent
Garden theatre, London, in 1901, a cri- |
tic wrote thus: Her conception of |
Carmen is original. and differs in many |
important particulars from the con- |
rentional interpretations, but 1t loses
nothing thereby in power and effec-
-iveness."

Sir Thomas Cables Home Glowing Inn
preston of American Conditions.
He Says Nobody Is Afraid
to Spend Lavlshly.

London. December Sir Thomas Lip
ton has eabled to the Weekly Dispatch an
article describing the amazing prosperity
In America In every department of trade
and commerce. lie says 1t is no exager-
alton to declare that at no previous period
OF human industry has such prosperity
been known in any country.
Every well-informed writer in Eng
land" Sir Thomas continues, appear to
have little idea of what Is happening
across the Atlantic.
Tho view appears to be that this pros-
perity is merely due to financial manlpu-
latlon. Never was there a more ridiculous
theory
American prosperity is based upon the
immense expansion of solid industries, tho
increased purchasing power of the people
and the legitimate development of argi-
culture and mining. while the general
confidence is such that nobody is afraid
to spend lavishy."

WHO Is THE NEXT
HEAD OF SOUTHERN?
j. p. MORGAN AND j, J, HILL HAVE
ABSOLUTE CONTROL OF THE
SlTUATlON-SEVE NAMES
HAVE BEEN MENTIONED.

Washington, November 30.-(Speeial.)-
There is much speculation here as to
who will succeed President Spencer OF
the Southern, but nothing definite will be
known for obvious reasons, until after
the burial of the deceased president, and
it may he some days after that before
the matter works out.
There are two men who will absolutely
control the Southern. They are j. Pier
pont Morgan and j. J. Hill.
The man they agree upon will become
president of the Southern. 1t is presumed
that they have not yet even discussed
The matter Morgan always thought 50
much of Spencer, that the great financier
has probably not as yet given the mat
ter thought.
Morgan and HILL control among other
lines, the Northern Pacific, the Great
Northern, the Burlington, the Erie and
the Southern. In the executive offices Of
these roads, there are many men who
might be regarded as capable of filing
the place that was held by Mr.. Spencer.
The presidency of the Southern has
long been a position that carried with it
the most arduous labors, and called for
unusual executive ability and business
Judgment That the selection of the man
to fill it will be made cautiously and
only after due deliberatlon is assured.
In the meantime the records and SER
vices of the men in the railroads just
mentioned will be gone over. 1t - also
realized that in the search for a man
suited for the job, the new president may
be secured from some outside system
Railroad officials who would discuss the
situation say they would not be .ur-
prised if w. w Finley. the second ice
president becomes president. They de-
clare, however that 1t is simply guess.
II. b. Spencer the son of President Spen-
Ger, is also being fayoraby mentioned.
Many believe that his father had him in
mind for the presidency within a few
years. and, IL this be the case, Morgan
probably knew of the idea. He may thihS

ABOUT REPORT OF MEYEN-

( washington. j, November Ex-senator
! Warren. who arrived in the city today,
made tlle following statement in CONTRA
dieton of the affidavit of Special Agent

, made yesterday at Salt Lake City, in
which Mr.. Warren and his colleague, SEN
/ ator Clark, were charged with conspiring
to put a stop to Investigations into the

Pacific Coal company.
IF Meyendorff made such an affidavit
he must have been indulging in pipe
dreams. l am informed that Senator

any communication with him oral Or

HE called on me at Denver, asking

position of special agent in charge of u

neither his work nor the climate of Colo

his request to me on the grounds of his
