WHITE HOUSE
BLACK   LIST.
Crowd Into
Mooreville.
The Uninvited Persons Who
Receptions.
The -white house has a hlack list. It
is an interesting souvenir of this year's
receptions. It goes to prove that there
are persons who own fine clothes and
who are not so thin-skinned as to remain away- from places to which they
are not invited, says the Philadelphia
Ledger. The invitations given this year
to the white house receptions were1 prepared with unusual c**,re. iigts of the
invited werg kept SHfl Bards were issued
te 'nflividuals ijy name. The heretofore indefinite and indiscriminate "and
ladies" was not. employed. That there
might be no misunderstandings the
secretary to the president and the gentlemen associated with him in the man=
agement of details let it be known
through the newspapers that steps
W°Hlv3 he taken to detect any who came
without invitations. But the method
to be employed was not explained. Ths
trap was set and it did its duty. At
one reception 213 persons who had. not
been invited game to the white house
ahd participated. At another affair the
number of uninvited present was 150.
The manner in -which the intruders
were detected is interesting. As usual,
each guest on advancing to the entrance of the receiving room was told
hy an official to "give your name to the
officers, who will present ygu," The
name of each guest was called out
tw'ce, nrst by the officer introducing to
the president and again by the officer
who made the presentation to Mrs. McKinley. The announcing was done
with distinctness. But this year an attache Of the white house stood in a secluded nook and took down every name
that was called out. Comparison with
the roster of the invited was made subsequently and in this way the names of
the uninvited were singled out and the
black list was created. This was not
all. Doorkeepers from the Senate and
house were prese'nt to add their knowledge of faces to \h.aiof'the whtte^ouse,"
ushers. Alphabet'cal'lists* pf \h,% iR*
y\te^ were in the" possession of the.qf-*
flgialg, Wlxew there yf&s a doubt about
any one the lists were consulted. Some
of the uninvited were asked for their
addresses. Subsequently letters were
addressed to several of those who had
come without invitations, asking explanations of the breach. Most of the
letters were ignored. Several replied,
laying the blame on congressmen, from
whom they claimed to have received
verbal invitations. Half a "Joseu department people were caught and their-
cases, weye referred to superior officials.

grounds for years. He took long walks
every day in the honse, or in the house
and grounds, counting the number of
times he covered certain measured
distances. "Whenever the distance
equaled that to some neighboring village, he put it down as a walk to that
place and spoke of it in that way to his
friends. Before he shut himself up he
used to pay visits to his friends in a
highly original manner, he himself remaining invisible, while his servant
ran backwards and forwards by the

Men    Invariably    Succumb    Before    the
Precious Blue Garments.
"Manners" may "make the man," but
clothes and manners make the woman!
Who will say that a charming mann^
is not made to seem more charming
when a woman is garbed daintily ancl
becomingly?   There is many   an   old
beau of the yesterday who remembers
to-day the blue dress of the girl   he
once—if not still—believed to be the
personification of all that was loveliness in womanhood, says a writer in
the St. Louis   Republic.   The   gown,
somehow, as he remembers it, seemed
to be part of the dainty maid.   At any
rate, he never fails to associate lier
with it.   Speaking of the blue dress,
somebody has said of it:    "Of all   the
arts and wiles which, the ingenuity and
skill of -woman have devised there is
probably nothing which so enraptures
the animal man as does the latest freak
of fashion, the blue dress.    The idea
was copied from tie novelist, because
no well-regulated and eminently proper
heroine was   ever   known   to   swirl
through the pages of a society novel
unless she was arrayed in garments of
heavenly blue.    So far the scientists
have been unable to explain the chromatic influences, and   laymen   should
certainly hesitate to undertake an explanation of so abstruse a question, but
the fact remains that garments of blue
exercise a peculiar influence npon   the
sterner sex."   I do not know how altogether true the last statement is, but
it is a fact—isn't it?—that the charming blue gown is treasured in many a
memory.   I do not believe it is simply
because it was so dainty, so pure-looking and so generally becoming.   If a
girl thinks she can he attractive and
be a dowd in dress, then let her see
a romantic drama in   which   the   actresses are dressed indifferently. Somehow one can never associate romance
with a gown.that does not fit or is of
a horribly unbecoming color.   Next in
importance after a sweet and Tefined
manner come   becoming   clothes.     A
man may not know whether a gown is
after the latest and smartest mode, but
he does know In a minute whether its
color is becoming and its general air
•lainty.   And so to the good advice of
the wise matron to the girl who Would
be charming, let me add this:    If you
have lost your heart, and would win
another in return, wear just as pretty
frocks as your pocketbook can afford.
If you have but one "best dress," make
it as attractive as you can with fresh
laces and ribbons, and know that a
woman, however naturally charming, is
only at her best when she is. conscious,
of being becomingly dressed.
