President Remains in White
House Instead of Taking
Morning Outing.
WOMEN ARE DISAPPOINTED
Several Hours of Needless Wait
ing Are Caused by Chief
Executive.

President Wilson may not know
1t, but he had the laugh today on
the dozen "silent sentinel suffrsgists
who have been "sufing" out in front
of the White House for nearly a
week.
And this is how it all happened:
The plans of the Congressional
Union call for a dozen women and
an equal number of banners, for the
two Pennsylvania avenue gates to
the White House grounds, from 10
o'clock each morning until the return
OF the President from his morning
spin in the country, or his game of
golf. After Mr.. wilson's return, the
orders are to reduce the number 70
four, two on either gate, until 4
o'clock each afternoon.
Carried Out Program.
Today the Suffragists carried out
their part of the program, all right
But the President did not. Mr.. Will
SON, who attended the ChildreR's
Hospital Charity Ball, did not return
until 1:3o o'clock this morning. So
he slept late. and decided not to go
out FOR his daily golf game.
He didn't send this information to
the pickets, however, who lowered
about the west gate from 10 o'clock
till 1890, with one eye on the wrist
watches which many of them carried,
and the other In the direction from
which the White House car was OK

Waited In Cold.
For half an hour they waited,
silently, in the cold, marking time on
the hot bricks and the boards placed

II was time for the President to re-
turn, they said, II he expected 10
come back. Then some one discover
Cd that there were no policemen
about the gates. as always are when
the Chief Executive is due.
They started an investigation and
found that Mr. Wilson had not left
the White House, and had not plan

gists, who figured that they had
wasted half an hour in the cold,

M'EWEN'S FALL FASHIONS.
Splendid Display of Latest Styles At-
 tended by Large Crowds.

Yesterday was "McEwen's opening day." for display of the latest in fall fashions, and, as is always the case it attracted great crowds of women who were delighted with the masnlfl- cent creations. The display was one of the most elaborate ever made in inc city and the women enjoyed the opening as one of the greatest treats of the season.
 It was an all-American display, as all the gowns and. costumes were made in the United States. The pat terms are as beautiful and artistic as any made in foreign lands.
 The millinery department is a per feet dream, as the women would say, when they wish to express that last thought in tho way of admiration. The pattern hats, as we'll as others show the splendid taste of Mrs. Ada Sweet, who has charge of this department.
