evening, December 28, 9 m.
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. This means
that several hundred guests will help

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.

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
