Such Is the simple announcement made for the social debut of Mi Kthel Roosevelt tonight, which promises tp be by far the smartest affair ever given in the White House by the president and Mrs. Roosevelt, except the cere monies attending the wedding of Miss Alice Roosevelt and Representative MicholRs Ixmirworth of Ohio. - The term "small" applied to the dance by the president and Mrs. Roosevelt must not be taken literally. It Is to be small only in that the Invitations have been confined to, Miss Roosevelt friends and the younger people in the official set, whose parents fiRure on all formal Invitation lists of the sea son at the White House.

Million boxe month. the daughter of the president dance her way into the social world. Ths Coming Out down. The dance is to be given in the east room, where a small army of decorators were at work today converting the his toric chamber Into a veritable bower of floral beauty. There are to be elab orate floral decorations in all the rooms on the main floor of the executive man sion. In the main corridor the niches will be filled with deoorative plants, stately palms and tree ferns. Behind a screen of rhododendrons will be sta tioned the magnificent Marine Band or chestra. A special program of music has been prepared for the occasion. The pieces were selected for the most part by Miss Roosevelt, herself. Miss Roosevelt's coming out gown Is still a secret, .but by good authority ft is reported to be a white handkerchief linen embroidered In white forget-me note and made in an empire princess style. Is Beally Popular. The debut dsnce 4s the one topic of Washington society ' today. It is not only: because the debutante is the daughter of the president that so much Interest Is taken in her formal entrance Into society, but that she has made so many . real friends in "Washington among all classer. Of the young woman herself the pub lic knows much through the public press, which has chronicled her person ality to the fullest during the past few month. Miss Roosevelt has lived in the White House longer than any young frlrl In history, not even excepting Nel ie Grant. During her girlhood In the executive mansion she has met the most rromlnent men and women of the coun ry but only as a child. Now she Ja ready to accept her Inheritance, to greet them on terms of mature equality. Per haps no young woman In official life ever came to her responsibilities with better equipment. : . Star Attaiamanta. A year ago last spring Miss Ethel left the .National Cathedral School for Oirls. During the greater part of the time since then she has been putting the finishing touches to her education under the direction of a governess. She has paid particular attention to German and French. Although not by any means a brilliant musician she is quite tal ented, and possesses. In addition to a thorough education, upon which her father insisted, many accomplishments essential to the social success of a young American girl,' li Following closely In the footsteps of her father, and mother. Miss Roosevelt fs an enthusiastic horsewoman and not only drives a stylish dogcart with great vim and dash, but Is a fearless rider. Bhe rides like a young Amazon, with free and graceful abandon. She was one of the first of Washington's very young girls to take to the cross saddle. Unlike her sister, Mrs. Longworth, Miss Ethel takes great interest in po litical and economic questions. She is fond of a political argument and It Is whispered that she Is not averse to en gaging In a forensic tilt with her father in the seclusion of the family sitting room. Handsomest Roosevelt. Miss Ethel often has been spoken of as the prettiest Roosevelt of this gen eration. She is tall and superb of fig ure, with a mass of chestnut hair and gray eyes so dark that at times they appear black. Her complexion is pure and clear, very much after the English style. Miss Roosevelt has exquisite taste In dress, which has been cultivated by al lowing her to have a voice in the se lection of her wardrobe ever since she was a small child. While not prim, she usually dresses in tailor-made gowns. She has Inherited the literary taste of her father, and she also possesses In unusual degree, for a woman, his love of animals, fihe paints a little In wa ter colors, teaches a class In Sunday school. Is fond of tennis and rowing, and, all in all. Is a many-sided young person. POPE'S EELAPSE NOT ALAR3IIXG (United Praw Leased Wb. Rome, Pec 18.

Tha Kind Yea Haw Always Bsuglit Slafnatuwof EllfiLISH PEER sells mm Lord Amherst Disposes of Costly Books to Sat- isfy Honor. N - London Dec. 28. Two years ago hook collectors al! over tfle world were as tonished by the announcement that the magnificent library of Lord Amherst of Hackney, one of the finest In the world, would be sold at publlo auction. When the most Inquisitive looked around for a reason for this extraordinary action on the part of the famous English peer, who had devoted the best years or his life and a considerable part of his great fortune to the collection of his library, they were told that the noble lord wus compelled to realize immediately a sum approaching $500,000 to cover a debt of honor incurred, through the dishon esty of his solicitor. Although the announcement of the sale was premature, events of the past few days have proved that Dame Gos sip spoke the truth regarding the cause, but greatly under-estimated the amount. A recent action against Ixrd Amherst In the EngNsh courts brought forth the official announcement that the amount which he had lost was not a mere $600, 000 but more than $1,250,000, and the sale of his books took place last week at 8otheby"s. ( Although Lord Amherst Is known to be an Immensely wealthy man, owning as he does a large slice of Hackney, a suburb of London, the fact that he was compelled to sell his beloved li brary, to meet his big obligations has occasioned) little or no surprise In Eng land. There are few Englishmen, even among the richest, who would not have to do a deal of chasing around and craping to raise J 1.260.0(10. , . t Yarilagr Zs falnfuL Most of them owe their wealth ?to enormous landed interests and, entailed and tied tip as their property Is under the English law, they would . find It extremely difficult. if hbt impossible to convert any part of It into gold. So It was with 1-iord Amherst, and although (t was much like parting with his life's blood he was compelled to take a last fond look at his almost priceless Cax tons and his first folio Shakespeares, lovingly handle, for the last time his historical bindings, and tearfully send them off to the auction room to be eagerly bid for by representatives of all the great collectors of the world. Lord Amherst began his collection haif a century ago. before the multi millionaire American purchaser with the bottomless purse entered the field. Thus he was able to buy at extra ordinarily low prices and It Is proba ble that the sale of last week realized for him several times the amount of his original outlay. To enumerate the unique books that composed the col lection is a task beyond the writer's powers. His 17 famous CaxtonS formed out one item In the long list. The col lection of books and tracts on the Reformation and the Church of England had no rival outside of the British museum, including as It did Queen Eliz abeth's copy of the 1588 Bishop's Blblo and Charles 1's copy of the "Authorized Version." One of the Caxtons la re puted to be the onlv copy In existence of the first book printed In the Eng lish language. JLaxions to Pay Off. Evidently Lord Amherst felt that It was necessary to pay the debts Incurred through his solicitor immediately, for If he had had a faw years' grace he could undoubtedly have liquidated them without sacrificing his library. , His,, in come Is commonly and openly quoted at $500,000 a year and for many years past he tias probably lived up to It entertaining lavishly at his Norfolk estate, Dldllngton Hall. Both he and his wife, however, have eschewed the so-called "smart set." He has no son. but no less than six daugh ters, and his title will go by special remainder to the eldest. Lady William Cecil. Although there Is not much likeli hood of their being called upon to do So, each oX the daughters Is able to go 'out into the world and earn her own living, having learned some useful pro fession. For instance, Lady William Cecil is Interested in horticulture: one of her sisters has taken up hook bind ing; another is successful in poultry farming, and so on. Lord Amherst was raised to the veer age as a baron in 1892 by Lord Salis bury, die is hot to be confused with Earl "Amherst. j ' " '' ' ', . '::-- '' 6rjr JMtJJorffwood. Pawed or .four-foot length.
