The WORLD OF SOCIETY
MISS RoosEvELT's HAPPY VISIT
TO PHILADELPHIA.
Recent and Coming Events Here and
Elsewhere-The Charity Ball
Personal Notes.

Only precious small intervals of being left
alone seems to have been experienced by
Miss Alice Roosevelt and Representative
Longworth during their over-Sunday stay
with the Griscoms at '.Dolobran," Haver-
ford, Pa. The visit was a great success.
however, as the happy couple posed for
photographs several times, held their own
in a number of interviews, and altogether
put themselves at the disposal of the few
who were responsible for the newspaper his
tory of the two days stay. Miss Roose-
welt was accompanied to Philadelphia Sat
urday by Mr.. Griscom, the future ambas-
sador to Brazil. and his wife. who were her
hosts. and "Toodles,' her tiny pet spaniel,
a gift last summer from the Empress of
Japan. This highly favored morsel of
highly bred dog flesh was held cuddled up
for a picture. At the dinner Saturday
night in Philadelphia, Quaker party,
because the women dined in one room and
the men in another; Miss Roosevelt's dress
is thus infinitely described as "ass beautiful
creation of transparent tulle. built over
a foundation of delicate blue silk; the
gown was very simply made. the distlnc-
ton of the whole costume depending largely
upon the embroidered garlands and fes-
toons with which both waist and skirt were
decorated. The corsage was cut pointed
and very low, and was finished about the
top with little ruffies of fine lace. A feature
of Miss RooSeveit's gown was the delicate
latticed effect with which the sleeves.
which were made of tiny bits or tulie ana
lace, were fashioned. The skirt, which
was very full. was caught up at the bot
tom with feStoons of embroidery, and the
high position belt was finished with the
same pink and white rosebuds Miss
Roosevelt wore very little jewelry, and her
hair was dressed high and very simply"
In the after-dnner speeches which the
women overheard, Representative Long
worth in a gallant way said that he knew

glory, not from the japanese lantern or the
electric lights which illuminated the festive
board, but from the light of his sun. the

the banquet room, referring TO Miss Roose-
Welt, who was sitting in the adjoining room.

tive Longworth were to join them in New
York today for a short visit.
