and only few months separates the
old Arlington from its fate. Actual
work of demolition will begin in June.
Such delay as has been experienced
In getting the new project under way
has been due more to the cherished
recollections Of the old structure. with
its political, romantic and social his
tory, than to any thought of what con-
veniences the new hotel will offer
Patrons Of the new hotel before

sure that the rare massive old furni.

Of those who revere historic recollec-

The Arlington hotel and it's site
have been identified with the history
Of the country since President Wash
ington defined the boundaries Of La
fayette Park, on which 1t stands, when
he selected the site for the executive
mansion in 1890.
At the time of the American Revo-
luton the site OF the hotel was part
Of David Burns farm. 1t was destined
early to be the place of residence Of
the most famous leaders in war and
diplomacy who built their homes upon
the border Of the park which Wash
ington had named for Lafayette.
Where the main body of the Airing
ton hotel now stands there were three
stately residences. One was occupied
BY William L. Marcy. secretary Of
war under President Polk and secre-
tary Of state under President Pierce.
When he retired he was succeeded in
this and the adjoining house by the
secretary Of state under Buchanan,
Lewis Cass, who, like Marcy, had pre-
viously held the war portfolio. In the
third mansion. recently superseded by
the extension Of the Arlington hotel
up Vermont avenue, dwelt Reverdy
Johnson. minister to England
It was here that Presidents Buchan-
an and Harrison were entertained
prior to their Inauguration. The H
street front Of the hotel consists Of a
union of the former residences Of
Charles Sumner and Senator Pomeroy,
the windows looking directly upon the
White House. President Cleveland
went from these rooms to his inaugu-
ration. Close by was the large double
mansion which was the home of the
British legation. Here lived Sir Bull
wer Lytton and his son Lord Lytton,
who wrote here his celebrated poem.

A TRICK THAT WORKED.

When the legislators reached the con-
ference room that evening they found all
the newspaper men seated in corner,
and. much to the surprise Of the leaders,
after the conference had been called to
order a young Assemblyman arose and
moved that the newspaper men be
allowed TO stay. There were half dozen
seconders of the motion, whereupon the
leaders who had been in conference with
Governor Wilson in the afternoon OPP
posed il vigorously. When the vote was
taken 1t was overwhelmingly in favor of
letting the newspaper men stay.
Governor Wilson to this day probably
does not know that the newspaper men
framed the whole thing up, that they had
prevailed upon the Assemblyman to make
the motion allowing them to stay and had
also secured the seconders for the motion,
and, further, in order TO make 1t sure.
had checked up the various Democratic
lawmakers so that they knew just where
they stood before the conference began.
Although Governor Wilson has lived in
the North for a long time, he has not lost
his love for Southern cooking. He just
loves chicken cooked Southern style, and
dotes on candied sweet potatoes (what
the negro down South calls the 'yaller
yamsD, with the accompanying spoon
bread and rice. The Governor confesses
that he has not yet found any one who
can prepare these things better than Mrs.
Wilson herself.
He is an authority on the science
of constitutional government. When ne
takes his place at Washington 1t will be
as one who has studied and familiarized
himself with everything that the country
has done and with what has been done
for the country up to the present day.
Mrs. Wilson is her husbands COM
panion and her children's chum, and Is
one of the most public spirited women IN
America to-day She believes that the
intelligent woman of to-day has a duty
both to the home and the community.
And she does not feel that in order to be
a good wife and mother a woman should
hurry herself in her home and pay no
attention to the outside world. Although
not very fond of society, she is de-
lightful hostess, and any one who has
visited the Wilson home is impressed
with the charm and democracy of the
coming mistress Of the White House.
The village laborer receives just as hearty
A greeting from Mrs. Wilson as the vii
lage banker. She plays no favorites.

ton. 1t was in the days when the country
newspaper owner not only wrote his own
editorials and news matter. but also set
the type and helped run the press, and the
elder Wilson was very much disturbed
when young Woodrow in his early days
preferred the reading Of books to setting
type.
The Governor is fond of debate. He
likes to take what he thinks is the right
side of a question and argue untiringly
to gain his point

political life he has been an ardent ex-

They tell d story at Trenton, however,
of how the newspaper. men baked Gov
ernor Wilson the only time he ever en-
deavored to put the seal of secrecy upon
legislative action This was during his
famous fight against James Smith, tr the
Democratic boss of New Jersey, who
wanted to go again to the United States
Senate.
The night before the vote was to be
taken conference of the Democratic
Senators and Assefhblymen was called
for o'clock. Earlier in the afternoon
Governor Wilson had conferred with
some Of the Democratic leaders, and they
decided that the evening conference must
be secret and that no newspaper men
should be allowed to attend. This pro-
ceeding did not appeal very strongly to
one or two newspaper men at the capital,
and they decided that they were going to
the conference, il possible.

AS REGARDS SUFFRAGE.

It is twenty-one years since Mr.. Wilson
went to Princeton. Mrs. Wilson says
that his subject was politics then, and has
not changed since. Mrs. Wilson works
together with her husband, all the time
preserving her own individuality. She be-
lieves that she aids him most by keeping
alive his interest i'm the beautiful things
of life and making it impossible for him
to become too exclusively politician.
Mrs. Wilson'S own tastes have always
run in the direction of poetry, art and
nature. The great English poets-Shakes-
peare, Milton, Wordsworth, Browning
are her favorites. And in the old days
she and Mr.. Wilson read together con-
stantly. As the daughter Of a Presbyte-
rian minister in Georgia Mrs. Wilson grew
UP among books, flowers and pictures. In
her early days she studied al the Art Stu
dents League in New York, and it was
while there that young Woodrow Wilson
persuaded her to become his wife.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson were married on
June "a, 1885. She was Miss Ellen Louise
Arson, member of a distinguished family
at Rome, Ca Shortly after they were
married Mr.. Wilson was called to Bryn
Mawr, where he became a member Of the
institutions first faculty Three daugh-
tiers were born of their marriage.
Margaret Wilson. the eldest daughter, is
| q singer OF rare ability. She is exceed
| ingly fond Of the German classics and de-
lights in such composers as Schumann,
Schubert and Wagner. She is studying III
New York and will continue her studies
after she goes to the White House Miss
Margaret is the athlete of the Wilson
family. She plays tennis very well, rows,
swims better than most men and is inter
csted in all outdoor sports.
There is only one suffragist in the Will
son family and that is Miss Jessie. She is
an ardent believer In the right of women
to vote, but she is not militant, and those
who have heard her arguments say that
they are conclusive. Miss Jessie is tall
and slender and the kindly lines of her
face are indicative of the work to which
she has devoted herself. Although she has
decided talent for art she prefers TO give
most of her time to settlement work In
Philadelphia. She was graduated from
woman's college at Baltimore when she
was twenty. Since then she has become
settlement worker assisting Mrs. r. K. p.
Bradford at the Light House, big social
centre among the mill workers in Ken
sington, Penn. Jessie Wilson is also fond
of outdoor life her chief diversions being
tennis and golf to which she gives first
attention when not working in the slums
Of Philadelphia.
Eleanor Randolph Wilson. the youngest
of the three daughters inherits a great
deal Of her mothers love for nature and
art She is now studying at the Pennsyl-
vania Academy of Fine Arts in Philsdel-
/ phia and will continue to do so after her
father goes to the White House. Miss
Eleanor is an accomplished horsewoman.

FAVoRITE SUMMER HAUNTs.

The Wilson family, as a whole, likes
a collection of good letters, and is es-
pecially fond of such volumes as THE
Gentlest Art" compiled by f. " Lucas.
While Governor Wilson's tastes run to
books, he also has a fondness for music
and an interest in things philanthropic.
He has a fine tenor voice and frequent
ly sings for his family, his daughter Mar

Mr.. Wilson is exceedingly fond of out
door exercise. He likes long walks, and
prefers the companionship of the mem
bers of his own family when enjoying
this div ersOn. He Is also fond OF golhng,
but does not boast Of being a champion.
In fact when the newspaper men with

Mrs. Wilson is an artist Of no mean
ability, and "A number of her pictures
adorn the walls OF her home. Before Gov
ernor Wilson became national figure in
America she devoted considerable time
to the study of painting, expecting TO
make it a life work. Then the children
came, and she found greater happiness
in training them. But now that they have
grown up she is once more devoting some
time to her old work
Mrs. Wilson is home woman through
and through, interested and eager for the
success of her husband and her daugh-
tiers and devoted to each one of them. She
also takes quiet but energetic interest
in charitable organizations, and is in close
touch with the work of nearly every char
liable, corrective or educational institu-
ton in New Jersey. She knows all about
the details of the war against tubercuIo-
sis, she knows what is being done TO
help feeble-minded children, and she is
also familiar with the movement to save
through the juvenile courts of the state
the little waits who occasionally stray
from the fold
