COSTLY GIFT FOR UNCLE SAM,
Gem Studded Rug, Worth $4,000, Pre-
sss,tsd to tho White House.

ssntsd to the White House.
What is said to be one of the most
costly gifts to the nation by an indi-
vidual was recently accepted by Presi-
dent Roosevelt at the White House.
n. n. Topakyan, 4 wealthy Armenian
connoisseur and a personal friend OF
the president, presented an imperial
silk jeweled Persian rug, said to be the
finest In texture and weave In the
world.
The rug, which IL valued at $4,000,
contains twenty-four square feet OF
unblemished Persian silk. 1t Is stud
ded with strings of sapphires, rubies,
emeralds and turquoiscs, surrounded
by ropes Of pearls. causing the color
design. which is modelled after the In.
terror Of Turkish mosque, to run into
delicate shades Of rose, green and no.
rizon blue. The whole effect is one of
indescribable softness and richness.
The rug, which is hand woven, rep
resents the labor of an entire Persian
family for i've years. It was originally
intended for use as wall tapestry In
the palace of the shah Of Persia, but it
struck Mr.. Topakyan's fancy on one of
his trips to the orient, and after a
great deal Of trouble he succeeded In
purchasing it and bringing It to Amer
lea. A framework Of mahogany has
been built around the rug, and it may
be used as a hanging tapestry in the
White House reception room.

FIRST NIGHTS:
The Way They Affected Some Famous

The Way They Affected Some Famous
French PIaywrishts.
The first night with authors is view
ed with different feelings. This is how
it affected some famous French play
wrights. Sardou's nervousness was
we'll known. Dumas fils was never
able to preserve his sangfroid. As
soon as the curtain rose Dumas pere
would betake himself to restaurant
and dine from as many courses as his
new piece had acts. His son reported
on the success Of the piece. At the
first representation Of 'Toussaint Lou
venture" Lamartine found his work so
tedious that he went to cafe and
read the papers. Balzac when he pro-
duced Resources de Quinola" spent
the day In selling tickets at a rate
higher than at the box Office and reap
ed a fine return.
Paul de Kock, seated In the orches-
ira, we also read, protested against
bis piece and made so much noise that
his neighbors demanded silence. Cas-
mir Delavigne remained at home.
Alexandra Sonnet went to be shaved
when Jeanne dare was produced.
The barber had finished one cheek
when the author cried: "Stop! Here
are 30 SOUS. Go round to the theater
and see II they hiss or applaud the
piece" The barber returned, saying:
1T is a success, monsieur. They ap-
n1aud." "Since it Is a success" re-
piled the author, "shave the other"
Scribe appeared in the best of spirits
and encouraged the actors, but at the
end he became nervous and tore his
handkerchief with his teeth. Rossini
walked about the back Of the stage
with his cane in his hand. Auber was
never present on the first night OF his
works, and Bayard on reaching the
stage is reported to have said that he
experienced sudden illness.-New YORK
