Her First White House Ball.
She was on hand. though. for the spe-
cial events. and was as keen as the rest
over the ball in the east room OF the
White House which Mrs. Wilson gave
before the last of the Inauguration visit
ors had dispersed to their homes. Seeing
Washington from White House auto
ploring the White House was still an
other, for when the Wilson girls came to
Washington they had never been INSIDE
the house before. The Capitol and the
other public buildings were equally
strange to them. and in consequence
none of the three has had dull minute
since Shopping tours up and down
street and other streets have been made
diversions lately. The Wilson girls have
simple ways. Last springs clothes and
hats were not necessarily discarded this

spend more money than they ever did be-

A Pretty Girl, Too.
Miss Jessie Wilson has the dis

is very blond and her hair, generally
arranged in smooth coils about her shape

Became a White House.


SO all the earlier titles-President's Pal
ace. etc.-were done away with in the
popular mind and the designation the
White House has since held. There were
lapses of course and the Executive
Mansion" held for while in the mem
ory OF this generation. but President
Roosevelt resumed the shorter title and
II will probably always last.
Additions and Changes.
The portico on the north and the
portecochere were added during Presi-
dent Jackson's term. There were no
changes made affecting the outside ap-
pearance from that time until the
Roosevelt administration.
After President Arthur moved in, fol-
lowing Garfeld's death, the house was
literally done over from cellar to gar
ret, and the results were considered an
artistic success. The red room was
decorated with Pompeiian shades, rob-
ms egg and silver changed the blue
room, but not its name, and nile green
and gold freshened up the green parlor.
The easy room was carpeted in soft yell
low and brown, a crimson carpet was
stretched alon. the corri,ior. \ screen
of Tiffany glass cut off all view of the
corridor and the rooms on it, when
visitors came in the north door. The

end of the upper corridor was changed
into a place where the Presidents sister
could see her friends.

House as they found it twice. So did

Story of White House,
Scene of the Wedding,
Filled With Romance

There is no more interesting chapter or
IN fact. series of chapters in Washington
history than the story of the building of
the White House and the various changes
and additions which have been made in
II. to suit the tastes and needs OF its
occupants.
James Hoban. who was born in Xii
kenny, Ireland, and learned his profession
in Dublin, was its architect. He was in
troduced to Gen. Washington by mutual
friend and was employed by the year at
the suggestion of the first President from
1872 TO 1IaS. when he was appointed
supervising architect of the Capitol.
The corner stone of the White House was
laid in 1892. the spot selected being known
as David Browns old fields. The house
was far from finished In 1900, when Presi-
dent John Adams and Mrs. Adams moved
in. 1t was in fairly presentable shape.

AS delightful as the idea reads Mrs
ADAMS did not find that the future
grandeur OF the house or viewing its
splendid lines or admiring its big rooms
and lofty ceilings made up for the dis
comforts of poorly lighted and badly heat

The White House today was the center
of the thoughts of the nation and of the
eyes of a large proportion of the popula-
ton of Washington Despite the fact
that the guest list at the wedding of Miss
Jessie Wilson and Francis b. Sayre was
unusually small the interest in the cere-
mony was unabated.
The White House grounds We're closed
to the public at 230 o'clock this after
noon, but even before that hour large
crowds began to gather in the neighbor-
ing streets to see anything that might
happen in connection with the wedding.
BY 3 o'clock it was evident that the
crowds would pack the streets.
Shortly before noon the entire wedding
party returned from short automobile
trip through the city which had been ar
ranged hurriedly. They filled four auto
mobiles. They made a happy party, and
as they arrived at the porte-cochere of the

STAbb|NG Of
YOUNG GIRL

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-Herman
Oelrichs, looking much chastened,
appeared in Magistrate Franklin's
court today to account for in
juries suffered by Lucille Single
ton while automobiling Tuesday
night. The police believe the
girl was with Olerichs himself.
Oelrichs was accompanied by his
attorney, Martin Taylor. The
hearing was continued until Octo-
Der z.
The lawyer said that Oelrichs
would deny the stabbing Of Miss
Singleton. Having satisfied them
selves that 1t was Oelrichs and
not D. M. Claghorn Of Tacoma,
who was in Oelrichs' car with
Miss Singleton at the time the
machine was wrecked ON upper
Broadway, the police are hunting
for a companion who accompanied
them on the ride. 1t is believed
the girl could, IL she would, re-
veal the companions Identity, and
that his testimony would clear up
the affair. Detectives admit that
the case Is one of the queerest
they have investigated in many a
day.
The police were inclined to be-
lieve that Oelrichs loaned his car
to d. M. Claghorn of Tacoma, as
he stated, until 1t was found that
Claghorn was In Tacoma. This
led to a second questioning of Miss
Singleton, who admitted that a
man called at the hospital and Of
fered to settle with her for $500
but she insisted on $1,000.
A man whom she knew by the
name of Williams, she said, was
going to visit her to discuss the
matter further. She added that
a third person, a man, was with
herself and her companion during
the ride and that it was when he
grabbed "Billy's" arm to prevent
the stabbing, that the car ran into
d curb.
On the detectives advice, the
girl insisted that "Craighofn," a.
she called him. be present at the
Interview concerning terms. II

OPERATIVE EGG
MARKET is AIM OF
MANY POULTRYMEN

A project on the part Of the
commercial poultrymen tributary
to the Tacoma market to organize
q cooperative selling agency for
the sale of eggs and poultry direct
to the consumers Of Tacoma was
delayed and temporarily defeated
at the Puyallup fair last week by
the interference of the poultry
fanciers.
A meeting of commercial pro-
ducers to plan the cooperative
market was called to take place at
Puyallup Thursday afternoon.
When the meeting assembled the
fanciers were in the majority, SO
they took possession of the meet
ing and perfected the preliminary
organization of a state poultry
association for the purpose of
boosting the fancy poultry busi-
ness. This organization is NOV
ing along lines suggested by Harry
Collier, and its prime purpose
will be to prevail upon the legis-
lature to make appropriation for
the support of poultry shows and
thus enhance the prominence of
the fancy poultry business.
The movement for a co-opera-
tive market has not been aban-
doned, however, and a second
meeting of commercial poultry
men will be called in the near
future for the purpose OF perfect
ing such an organization.
"A fatal mistake was made In
calling meeting of commercial
poultrymen at a fair" said Joe
Smith, large commercial poul-
tryman of Long Branch. eve
might have known that there
would be a crowd of fanciers al
the fair and comparatively few
commercial breeders.
II tried at the meeting to in
terest the fanciers in the coop
erative egg market, but they were
more interested in getting appro-
priations from the legislature to
boost their business. AS one of
them expressed it, they were
afraid that if they do anything
to oppose the commission men the
commission men will oppose them
when they go to the legislature
for appropriations.
II proposed that we organize
the egg producers tributary to Ia
coma, establish selling agency
here, ship all our eggs to that
agency, and sell them at auction
to the highest bidder. This would
eliminate the middleman and
place the eggs in the hands of the
consumer at the price the pro-
Queer receives, less the actual cost

of selling. l estimate that the
selling cost under such q plan
would be not to exceed one cent
a dozen in case lots, or three cents
in lots of from one to ten dozen.
At present there Is a margin OF
from three to six cents a dozen
In Tacoma between the price the
producer gets for strictly fresh
eggs and the price the consumer
pays. This margin is divided
among the various commission
men. jobbers. and retailers. IL,
as believe, we can reduce this
selling expense to from one to
three cents dozen 1t means bet
ter prices for us and cheaper eggs
for Tacoma consumers.

number of the larger commercial
egg producers and hope soon to
be I'm q position to announce the
establishment of the auctiOn-sale
egg market.
another advantage such a
market will have is that all eggs
sold ON 1t will be stamped with
the name and address of the pro-
Queer, and the date the eggs were
laid SO that consumers can be as
sured OF getting fresh eggs when
they pay for them, instead of run
ming the risk of getting the stor-
age product"
