THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, APRIL. 21, 1907.
Masons Vie With Daughters of Revolution
Former Give Fair at National Capital, and Latter Meet in Annual Convention.
WASHINGTON. April 15. (Special
Correspondence.) Two distinct,
though not necessarily opposing
forces contested during the week for pos
session of the National Capital. The de
scent upon the city was made early Mon
day morning when an army of handsome
II gowned Daughters of the American
Revolution, marched past the U. B. State,
War and Navy Building, to Continental
Hall and at 10-30 convened the Sixteenth
annual Congress of their National soci
ety. In the evening of the same day. Presi
dent Roosevelt took out the tiny golden
key with which he had set in motion the
World's Fair at St. Louis and the Lewis
and Clark Exposition at Portland, and
lightly played upon the instrument which
connected him with Convention Hall. Im
mediately the fair for which the Masons
here and their friends everywhere, have
been for months preparing, was dsclared
"opened for business." From that mo
ment the battle raged. Now the Daugh
ters would occupy the center of the stage
of public attention, and now, the Masons
had it. What the former gained by reason
of theirs being a continued performance,
the latter counterbalanced by announcing
they would remain at the "old stand" as
long as the public would pour shekels or
even nickels Into their coffers.
'
The women came in for thler share of
the President's attention at -2:30 o'clock,
on Friday, when, after his regular Cabi
net meeting and luncheon, he received all
of the members and delegates to the Coir
tlnental Congress, and as many more
District Daughters as could pass the re
ceiving line in the allotted time. Mrs.
Donald McLean, president-general of the
D. A. R. made the presentations, with the
assistance of the President's aide, intro
ducing first members of the National
Board and the following chairman of
committees for the Congress. Mrs. Tru
man H. Newberry, wife of the Assistant
Secretary of the Navy; Mrs. Charlotte
Emerson Main, president of the District
Federation of Women's Clubs, and vice
president general in charge of organiza
tion for the D. A. K.; Mrs. Howard L.
Hodgklns. State regent for the District
of Columbia; Mrs. Alexander E. Patton,
vice president general from Pennsylva
m, and Mrs. Charles H. Terry, of Illi
nois, chairman of Entertainment Com
mittee. With Mrs. Terry were Mrs. J. B.
Foraker. Mrs. J. P. Dolliver, of Iowa,
Mrs. Stephen B. Elkins. of W. Va., Mrs.
John R. Walker, of Missouri, Mrs. Rob
ert L. Park of Georgia. Mrs. Mary S.
Lockwood. and Mrs. Clement A. Griscom.
Mrs. Mary Wood Swift, vice president
general from California, who has become
a familiar figure around the council
board of the D. A. R-, Is conspicuous by
her absence at this Congress, but fre
quent are the inquiries for her, and re
gret, expressed over her inability to reach
Washington this year.
The "Daughters" In Oregon sent Mrs.
Mary Phelps Montgomery. Mrs. W. E.
Thomas, Mrs. Edward W. Bingham. Mrs.
Francis G. Bailey and Miss Eleanor Gile.
The first to arrive from Wisconsin were:
Mrs Frank E. Aiken, regent, of Mil
waukee chapter: Mrs. William H. Crosby,
of Racine; Mrs. Katella Haynes, Mrs.
lone Gove and Mrs. Charles Gaspar, of
Waukesha. Mrs. James A. Rounsaville
and Mrs. T. C. Parker were early arri
vals from Georgia. New York, the native
state of the president-general, sent the
largest delegation to the congress, headed
bv Mrs. Henry W. Roberts, state re
gent, and Mrs. Joseph Griswold Wentz,
who Is a candidate to succeed Mrs. John !
Cunningham Hasen, as vice-president-general
for the Empire State. Mrs. John
Miller Horton, for many years regent
and delegate from Buffalo, arrived In
time to occupy a box for the benefit per
formance of "On Parole." with . Mrs.
Patton, of Pennsylvania, and Mrs. Tru
man Newberry, of Michigan.
Heralded only by the few, and not
attended by many more, the annual meet
ing of the National Academy of Sciences
was none the less a marked event of the
week. Inded, one might almost say, of
the year, since the association Is the
honor society of scientists of America
and the annual meeting is the time for
its members to announce any new discov
ery in. any branch of science. The re
tirement ' of Professor Alexander Agassis,
of Cambridge, and Mr. Arnold" Hague,
as president and home secretary, re
spectively, and the election of new
members, the maximum of five of whom
may be chosen for a single year, gave
additional interest to the recent gather
ing. The three members voted in last sea
son were on the programme. " They are
Professors Benjamin O. Pierce and Jo
slah Royce, of Cambridge, and William
B. Scott, of Princeton.
Next week Washington will welcome
the American Architects' Association,
which will be in session April 22, 23 and
24. An elaborate programme, including
several social events, has been prepared,
and the meeting will otherwise be
notable.
A banquet, which Is expected to result
In the organization of a Woman's Uni
versity Club. In Washington, was Re
cently given at Rauscher'8. Over 250
alumnae of over 40 diferent colleges were
seated at prettily decorated tables, and
a Jolly good time they had, toasting In
humorous vein the higher culture ana n
dlviduallty of woman. A reception of
half an hour preceded the banquet, at
which Miss Emma J. Turner, of r rank
lin and George Washington, was the
master of ceremonies. Perhaps the- most
distinguished guest was Miss Alice C.
Fletcher, of Harvard, whose research In
anthropology has won her international
fame. Miss Fletcher responded to the
toast, "The college woman at home and
abroad," and described as unique the
position of the college woman in America
compared with that of her sister abroad.
Among the other speakers were Miss
Harriet Stratton Ellis, recently appointed
dean of women at George Washington;
Miss Frances G. Davenport, department
of historical research, Carnegie Institu
tion, Washington, and Mrs. Karl K. Kel-
lerman. First on the programme was
Miss Laeta Marlon Ramage, of Teach
ers' College, who read a poem entitled,
"The Mothers."
According to plans recently set on foot,
Washington will soon have a place of its
own for grand opera. This because Mr.
Osnur Hammerstein. of New York, be
lieves the Nation's Capital should Have
the beet o everything and should not be
satisfied musically with the crumbs that
fall from the rich Gothamite s table. Suit
ing the action to the word, Mr. Hammer-
stein has agreed to put in any money in
excess of $200,000 for the completion of a
suitable opera-house and music hall.
Another patriotic and music-loving
American, Mrs. "George R. Nash, of Mil
waukee and New York, Is strongly advo
eating the establishing of a National con-.
servatory of music at the Capital, founded
on the principle that governs National
conservatories abroad, and which will fur
nish American musicians and singers am
ple opportunity to study in their own
country. American music, as such, has
already been too long neglected, and like
the art of the land, must be tenderly nur
tured If America Is to occupy a place In
the artistic world comparable to her po
sition as a world power politically and
commeiyially.
The most interesting bit of gossip in
Washington's official and social circles
for many a moon is that connected with
announcement of the engagement of
Miss Mary Patten to the Danish Minis
ter, Constantln Brun. Although antici
pated, the fait accompli created almost
as much of a stir as did the engagement
of Miss Patten's youngest sister, now
the wife of Brigadier-General Henry C.
Corhin. TJ. S. A.
Mr. Brun Is the oldest Minister In point
of service in Washington, having been
on his present mission here since 1895.
His bride-to-be Is the eldest daughter of
the wealthy Mrs. Patten, who came hero
from California and became a pioneer
resident of upper Massachusetts avenue,
and who now Includes as near neighbors
the Thomas F. Walshes, Larz Andersons,
Mrs. Townsend, Mrs. Philip Sheridan,
Mrs. A. C. Barney, the artist and author
and widowed millionairess, and Senator
and Mrs. Flint, of California.
Senator and Mrs. Bulkley, of Connecti
cut, the latter formerly Miss Houghton,
of San Francisco, will also belong to this
colony another year, they having re
leased the home of General and Mrs.
Corbin. Among the newcomers will be
noted Representative and Mrs. J. Van
Vechten Olcott, of New York, for whom
Mrs. Barney is building a new residence;
Gardiner F. Williams, the South African
diamond king, and Hon. Robert McCor
mlck, ex-United States Ambassador to
Russia.
.
Mrs. Thomas Carter, wife of the senior
Senator from Montana, entertained a
small but Interesting party at luncheon on
Thursday. Her guests were her class
mates at St. Mary's, Notre Dame, In
diana. The table decorations were in the
colors of their alma mater, blue and white,
forget-me-nots and sweet peas being the
flowers used. After the luncheon, Mrs.
Carter and Mrs. Towne, wife of ex-Senator
and ex-Representative Towne, of
Michigan and New York, played duets as
they used to at school. Others present
were Mrs. Brett, wife of Major Brett,
Mrs. Rivers, wife of Major Rivers, U. S.
A.; the Misses Mary and 'Angela Swing,
daughters of the late Judge Ewing of
Ohio; Miss Gertrude Wallace, and Mrs.
Armstrong, of Montana.
The real social Hons of the week were
the American Ambassador to Germany
and Mrs. Charlemagne Tower, who spent
some days here before going to Philadel
phia for a visit of three weeks, and Baron
d'Estournelles de Constan, the celebrated
French statesman, for whom the first
dinner at the White House since the re
cent Illness of Archie Roosevelt, was giv
en. Hon. Maud Pauncefoote, daughter of
the late British Ambassador to this
country, and at present the house guest of
Mrs. Levi Z. Leiter, is also receiving much
social attention from the friends of for
mer days, when ber father was the dean
of the diplomatic corps in America.

AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF AN OLD
SUIT OF CLOTHES written in m4
lght years ago I was pronounced finished by the Columbia Woolen
Mills Company. Careiully folded and packed In a neat box, I wa car
ried home by a fastidious young man, whose name I discovered to be
John. It waa Saturday night and I was
.,,t.b. iin in rirlr rlnRnt after being
brushed and made ready for the morrow's
service.
Of course,
long before
that time.
my lire be
gan, I grew
on the back
of a sheep
that was one
of a large told. I was caught, clipped,
washed, sooured and packed to a big
woollen mill. There I went through a lot
of Intricate machinery; I was dyed and
when I came, out I scarcely knew myself.
1 had become a handsontn d!ra of irrn v
goods and was envied by all of ray comrades for my style and texture.
I recollect riding for many miles in a big box. I felt the Jolting of
the train and the bumping of the cars. Then, to my great Joy, I. was
released from my horrible confinement; I was taken on a dray to the
handsome display rooms of the Columbia Woollen Mills Company. I
was placed on a shelf and then I heaved a sigh of satisfaction. "Now,"
I said to myself. "I will have a good, long rest."
But no. The very next day I was yanked down off the shelf, unrolled
and this young man. John, looked at me. I looked at him, too, and I
rath.r liked him. I began to hope that he would Belect me. He passed
on. there was such a bewildering assortment to consider, and I feared
that he would forget me altogether. Of a sudden he came right back
to where I waa and said to the salesman, "I think this is about the best
pattern .you have. I will take it."
I was tickled pretty near to death. I saw them measure John and
noted how particular they were about it. I thought again, to myself,
"They will certainly make me look fine on that young man.'
Then I felt the keen scissors, as they cat
me to measure; I felt the sharp prick of the
needle,, as I was stitched together; I went
through a big sowing machine. I noticed the
fine quality of thread they were using to
make me strong and the exceeding care the
tailors exercised tn assembling the pieces and
making me up into a suit readyto try on.
One day jonn came into
the store and I was fitted
to him. I never felt bo
Yirnnrl in nil m V lif T did
my best to lelp the tailors, as I wanted to be the best
looking suit of . clothes In Portland. I was doing all
I could to help out. John was well pleased. I was
hustled back to the tailor-shop; was ripped apart and
put together again and manipulated until I was fin
ished. The tailors looked at me with folded arms;
the manager studied me with critical eye; many cus
tomers came into the etore and admired me. But all
were told that I belonged to another.
So. eight years asm thin finrinsr. T was 1 v4rA tn
John and he paid for me. The price was somewhere between $20 and
140. I never knew Just how much. I know that I was worth more than
40, if I was worth a cent.
Well, the next day was Sunday. John arose early and stood looking
at me as I bung In the closet. Then ne took
me into the light, brushed off a (leek of dust
and, after grooming himself to perfection, he
put me on. He actually stood in front of that
mirror for an hour, smiling at himself and
grinning so much that I wu emba massed. At
last the breakfast bell rang. With stately
step, not in the least indicative of the fool
ishness or a lew minutes
before, he marched down
to the table. Perhaps I '
am telline- secrets, but I
cannot resist.. Every one complimented him upon his
appearance; he went to church; more compliments. He
visited friends in the afternoon; more compliments. He
paid a few more visits in the evening and still more
compliments. At the office, next morning, wherever
ne went, it was tne same oia story, "jonn, oia Doy. x
never saw a more becoming suit. Where did you get
it?" Was I happy? Well. I should say I was.
I went with John to functions of every kind. I
traveled with him to distant places. Once I remember
going to New York City with him. That's where I was when I was
young. People there on Broadway, who knew John was from Portland,
were surprised to see him wearing such up-to-date clothes. I helped
John close up a big business deal in New York, also.
i am not exactly worn out now, put i guess jonn
fT has tired of .me. He has bought many a suit of
1 Fti 1 clothes of the Columbia Woollen Mills Company since
I t T-1 I that- im and T am now n. hack numher. Rut T have
company. After eight years, however, I guess John
is going to pass me up. I stay on the hook most of
the time. During the fishing season I usually accom
pany John on outings. In fact, whenever he has any
outdoor work to do I am his bosom companion. I am
still in the harness, although I am a little short in
the sleeves now. John grew pretty fast for awhile.
My old partner, the trousers, have gone out of com
mission. I shudder every day now, for fear that I
will either be made over into a little suit for John's
kid brother or be handed out to some poor fellow who
needs me more than John does. There' a little sat
isfaction, however, when John comes around every
lew oays ana l near nim say, ixee, due mat was a
fine suit." Tt pays to have youc clothes made at the Columbia Woollen
Mills Company.

Hesse Will Tax Bachelors.
BE RUN, April 20. (Special.) It is
proposed In the Grand Duchy of H'asse
to tax bachelors. The lower house
of the Hesaian Parliament has passed
a meaaure for relieving state employes
whose incomes do not exceed- $500 by
a g-rant of from $40 to $60, in view of
the dearness of food and high rents.
But bachelors who have only them
selves to keep are to receive only half
the grant, although those unmarried
men who maintain a home for their
parents, relatives or adopted children
will bo granted the full sum. The bill
is popular because of the declining
marriage and birth rate, the Hessians
considering that It will act as a, cor
rective, if a premium is thus put on
marriage.
