THE DAILY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, APRIL 14, 1897

THE WHITE HOUSE.

ARRANGEMENT OF THE OFFICIAL QUARTERS OF THE EXECUTIVE.

Views From the Windows of the East Koom--The “Hall of the Disappointed.” Telephone Is Almost the Only Modern Improvement In the Building.

Mr. C. C. Buel writes a paper for The Century on “Our Fellow Citizen of the White House,’’ devoted to the official tares ani duties ofthe president, in the course of which he says:

At 10 o'clock a hardly discernible sign

Against the glass of the barrier an- nounces to the citizen who has arrived ander the grand portal that the execr- tive mansion is ‘‘open’’ to visitors. At 2 o'clock the sign is changed to ‘‘clos-_ ed.’’ The docrkeepers swing the dcors open to everybody. Within the large vestibule nothing is seen which indi- | cates the arrangement and purposes of the different parts of the mansion. It was not always so, for originally the now concealed corridor, or middle hall, with the staircase on the right, was a part of the entrance hall. Now the spaces between the middle columns are closed with colored glass partitions, and the vestibule is simply a large, square room pleasant to get out of. No way appears to open to the state apartments in the center or to the west wing, which is devoted to the private apartments. Yet glass doors are there, though as imperceptible to the stranger as a swinging panel. Tothe left there is a door which is always open. It ad- mits to a «mall hall, across which asim- ilar door is the side entrance to the great east room. About this splendid room, comprising the whole east end of | the mansion, the visitor may wander at | will before the portraits or enjoy from | the windows the bexuty of the treasury | building to the east or the impressive landscape to the south, including the | towering shaft of the Washington mon- |

ument and beyond the ever charming | Potomac, spreading with enlarging curves toward Mount Vernon, and in the private garden under the windows he may chauce to see a merry band of little ones.

From the small hall between the ves- | tibule and the east rcom a stairway as- cends toward the medial line of the building to a wide middle hall, on each side of which are the offices of the pres- ident. The arrangement is simple, and in the floor plan covers the space occu- pied below by the east room and the green room, the latter being the coun- terpart of the small hall with the public stairway just mentioned. At the head of these stairs, over the green room, is the cabinet room, which is the first apartment in the south side of the hall, a jog of two steps, at the private door into the president’s room, marking the raised ceiling of the east room below. The president reaches his office through the cabinet room, entering the latter from the library, which corresponds on the second floor with the blue room of the state apartments. President Arthur indeed used the library as his office and the cabinet chamber for an anteroom, while his private secretary was domi- ciled in the traditional office of the pres- ident. During his first term Mr. Cleve- land preserved the same arrangement. But General Harrison went back to the office hallowed by Lincoln’s occupancy, and Mr. Cleveland, on his return, found the arrangement s0 satisfactory that he continued it.

Beyond the president’s large, square office is the corner room where Private Secretary Thurber is always either wrestling with the details of executive business or standing with his shoulder braced against the crowd struggling to see the president. It is a narrow apart- ment and might be called appropriately the ‘‘hall of the disappointed, ’’ the sug- gestion being emphasized by portraits of the greatest of presidential aspirants, Clay and Webster, to which Mr. Thurber added, as his private property, an en- graving of the closest contestant for the office, Governor Tilden.

On the north side of the hall there are two rooms which correspond to those on the south side just described, the small one being cecupied by Mr. QO. L. Pruden, the assistant secretary since Gen- eral Grant’s time and the custodian of the office bcoks as well as of the tradi- tions which govern the public social routine of the executive mansion. In his room sits the telegraph clerk at his instrument, and by the window is a tel- ephone, which saves a great amount of messenger service between the president and the departments. Occasionally a congressman, With less ceremony than discretion, attempts to get an appoint- ment with the cur of the president over the telephone, and there is a record of a stage earthquake produced in the private secretary’s room by a furious congress- man who found the telephone ineffect- ive and his Olympian style even less so. Notwithstanding that it is almost the sole modern improvement in the White liouse, President Cleveland was seen at the telephone but once, and then, needless to say, not on call.

WHAT WOMEN WEAR.

There is an excellent demand for linen duck, cunvas and picne.

The best cuslitice cf Cuck and the heavier fabrics cf (iis cls are made up in tailor style.

There is no dress mere economics] cr useful than one made of a tolerably good quality of india silk.

There are many striped fabrics in cot- ton, some of them evidently modeled after the Dresden ribbon idea.

According to all appearances, we are going into a period of trimming the like of which the present ‘generation has never dreamed of.

The woman who likes polka dots can scarcely go amiss. They never go out of fashion, and merchants find them among their most reliable purchases.

A novelty hat is made of lappets of embroidery set up around the front of a frame to form a coronet. The crown is of embroidery and velvet, the trimming is of large aigrets and ostrich plumes.

English lace over yery close frills of silk muslin, and these over « closely plaited flounce of taffeta, is the trim- ming on some of the new petticoats. Above the lace is a soft ruche of white silk muslin.

An evening waist is shirred at the top of the low corsage and the belt. Over the shoulders are flouncings of lace gathered full and caught up at intervals with very large rosette bows of ribbon. The trimming is cf wistaria blossoms, and the effect is exceedingly pretty.

It is said that taffetas are to be sim- ply arage. They are exceedingly hand- some and not very expensive, unless one chooses to run into the extreme of high novelty. Besides this they are dressy, stylish and reasonably durable, and ev- ery wcman wants one.—New York Ledger.
