The rn .jority of the Presidents
' of the United State*, from tYnsh
jingiiinto McKinley, have been
! mjds of farmers and 1 1 inters—that
lie fourteen out of twenty-four.
The father of ono only, Presi
! dent McKinley, was a maunfao
tnrer. Os only one, William Hen-
I ry Harmon, is it recorded that he
was u statesman. One was a tan
ner and one a «<-xtou, (he fathers
j of Grant aud JoliDson. Buchanan
; and Hays were rods of merchants
I—but 1 —but nnt typical ones. Arthur
'and Cleveland were sons of cler
gymen. Law cluimed the Ifathers
of T)ler and John Quincy Adams.
'J’ao President i only were farmers
or planters— Washington, who
wris also a surveyor, and Lincoln,
who soon abandoned the farm for
the law office. Eighteen Presi
| dents, more than two thirds of
the whole number, lived and
thlived on the law. Os these,
| four began life aa teachers—
| Adams, Garfield, Arthur and
'Cleveland. One only was a doc
tor—William Henry Harrison.
One begad life as a tadtaer—Grant,
two as t iilors—Fillmore “and
| JotmsoD, the former later joining:
the ranks of lawyers. Jacksou
and Taylor were soldiers, as was
! also Grant.
Fifteen of the Presidents were
1 college meu, live received their
education at public schools, three
were self taught, and ’Grant was
the only West Point|man. '
Regarding the ancestry of our
Presidents, one-third, or eight,
claim Scotch and Scotch-Irish
descent; one, Madison, was a
Welshman, or of Welsh ancestry,
arid Van Bnren of Dutch; the re
mainder, or foui teen, had English
forbears.
Elizabeth has been the favorite
name for the mothers of Presi
dents. Let all Elizabeths with
sons make note of this. There
was Elizabeth Jones, the mother
of Mouroe; Elizabeth Hutchison,
mother of Jackson; Elizabeth Bas
sett, mother of the first Harrison;
Elizabeth Speer, mothbr of Buo
hanan; and Elizabeth Irwin,
mother of Benjamin Harrison.
The uame Mary is also well rep
resented, beginning witb Mary
Ball, Washington’s mother; then
there is Mary Hoes, the mother
of Van Buren; Mary Armstead,
Tvler’s mother; and Maiy Mc-
Donough, the mother of Johnson,
Os Janes, there are two—Jane
Haudolph, mother of Jtffersou,
and Jane Knox, mother of Pclk.
Os Nancys also two—Nancy
Hanks, mother of Lincoln, and
Nuncy Allison, mother of McKin
ley.
The Presidents all married
Amerieuu born women except
John Quincy Adams, whose wife,
Louisa 0. Johnson, was bom in
London, Eugiaud, where they
were married.
While Virginia claims most of
the uieu who have beeu at the
head of the nation, the ladies of
the White House have preferred
New Yor!- as a birthplace, six
claiming it. Yirgiuia aud Ohio
each gave four Presidents wives
EigLt other states are represented
—Now Hampshire, Massachusetts,
New Jersey, Maryland, North
Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee
aud Missouri. There has been
only oue bachelor President, Buc
hanan.
It seems that not even in the
good old times of 100 years ago,
was it the fashion to have latge
families. Washington and Madi
son nad no children, nor had
Polk. Tyler carries off the palm
in the way of olive branches witb
thirteen. The first Harrison comes
next with ten and Haves follows
wiih eight. Four oLildren have

been the \ residential average
number, beginning with John
Quincy Adams, who has four. So
had Van Buren. Taylor, Lincoln,
Grant and <'lev*land. Two is the
next favorite or the number of
children born to Monroe, Fill
more, Arthur, Harrison and Mc-
Kinley, Jackson and Pierce each
had three. John Adams, John
son and Garfield bad five, and
Jefferson six, all girls.
Cleveland and Harrison are the
only ex-Presidents living. None
lived to the alloted three score
and tin years, the first Harrison
coming nearest to that age, or 68.
Grant died at 46 years, and Pierce
t
at 48, AVashinpton at 67, and the
other at ages varying from 52,
Lincoln’s age, tr 65.
Natural decline was assigned as i
the cause of death of three—John |
Adams, who was only 61, Madi
son, who was 57, and Monroe, 58.
Four died of paralysis. One,
Buchanan, of gont. One of can
eer, Grant, and two were nssas
muit-.d. Fever, asthma, dropsy
and neuralgia of the beait were
the other causes of death. What
is usually regarded as an infantile
disease—membranous croup—
carried off Washington.
Most of the Presidents are
southern born. New England has j
given four Presidents. New York,
New Jersey and one of the wts
tern states have been represented
at the White House. Virginia
claims the honor of seven
Presidents. Ohio has the next
place, with Grant, Hayes, Gar
field, Harrison aud McKinley.
North Carolina claims Jackson,
Polk and Johnson. Massachusetts,

John Adams and his son, John
Quincy Adams. New York, Van
Buren and Fillmore. New Jersey,
Cleveland. New Hampshire.

In Memory
Os little Hattie Botnar, who was
was born October 14th, 1892, and
who depaited this life August
7tb, 1900.
Hattie’s last sickness did not
last three days, but she was al
ways Very delicate. She was a
yery bright child, and the pet of
the home and of the relatives.
But God, iu his infinite wisdom,
saw fit to call her home to him
self. Her mission here was ended.
We can net understand the work
of our kind, heavenly Fattier now,
but we shall understand hereaf
ter. We know that he doeth all
things for the best.
Hattie was kind and affection
sta toward her sister and broth
ers, also toward all her play
mates. She was obedient to her
parents, and always wanted to try
to do something to li>ld her
mother.
To know Hattie was to love her.
She will be greatly missed in the
school, among her playmates, but
more than nil in her home by her
loving parents. Weep not, fond
purouts, we know that Hattie’s
place here on earth can never be
filled, but she is waiting with
Jesus to weioome us all hotqe.
We will not see Hattie’s sweet,
smiling face hero any more, nor
hear her soft little voice, but let
us all so live that we may meet
her in the celeslinl home beyond.
A precious one from earth has gone,
A voice we loved is still;
A place is vacant m our hearts
’lliat never cau be tilled.

The Wiener TagblaU reports an
interview between its representa
tive and Miss Rockefeller, the
| daughter of the Amerioau Pi-tro
| lenm King. After putting severe
questions, which the young lady
readily answered, the enterpris
ing interviewer ventured to say:
“And now tell me, as you no
.doubt belong to Uje class of the
moat envied of all womeD, whether
I may presume that y6u are hap«
py?” Mias Rockefeller is reported
; to have replied:
“Happy?” Can one buy happi
ness with money?” Are there not
many things to make us quite un
happy, which money cannot
change? Aud then, are not the
j spoiled ones more sensitive to the j
[ princioles of life than the others?
No, I am not happy, and you may
tell it to a'l and sundry who envy
mo.”
The interviewer was astonished \
and said something about the la I
dv being a philosopher, to which !
she replied:
“Not philosopher, only thinker, i
tt is poyeitv which, perhaps,
taught others to think. I Jiearnvd
it through wealth.”

Humphrey Jones, twelve years
old, of 147 Fulton Street, Union
Bill, died at Christ Hospital at
midnight on Sunday. He was the
victim of ara lroad accident and
showed great fortitude and pluck.
He and several other boys stole a
ride on a West Shore Railroad
freight train on Sunday afternoon.
One of the boys, it was alleged,
pushed Jones from the car on
which he was riding. He fell un
der the wheels. His legs were
crushed so badly that amputation
was necessary, and he sank un
der the shock. When the lads
father was told that the boy would
die, Mr. Jones asked him if it was
true that he was pushed from the
car.
“Yes." said Humphrey.
“Who did ii?” asked his father.
“Oh, what's the use of teUiug?”
said the boy. “It was all done
in fun. The boy who did it feels
bad enough. Why should I maze
any more trouble for him?”
Half an hour later the iad was
dead.
Havana, Oct. 17.—Before leav
ing for the Uuited States yester
day, and in spite of the heavy
pressure of official business, Gov.
God. Wood visited Las Animas
Hospital, where the yellow fever
patients are under treatment, to
say good-bye to his sick officers
and to speak a word of encour
agement to the other Americans
there.
