THE PREsIpENrs LEyrE.

The Executive Mansion was in blaze Of
light and agreeable excitement last evening,
on the occasion Of the Presidents first public
leves. The rooms were not only crowded,
hut the character OF the visitors assembled to
pay their respects to President JoHssoS was
q strong compliment to him. Nearly all the
members of the Cabinet, with their families,
were present, with many Congressman and
Others in high official station, and a host Of
distinguished people from every section o.
the country, as well as from the city and its
Immediate vicinity. United States Marshal
GooDIss made the presentations to the
President in the Blue Room. Mrs. PATrER-
SON and Mrs. SrOvER, daughters of Presi-
dent JOHNSON, were also present, and re-
ceivsd their friends gracefully. Daring the

JAY COOKE AND THE sEyEv-
THIRTIES.

"A noted phuanthropist, Of whose practi-
cal beneyolence Gil Bias makes honorable
mention, Is said to have made q handsome
fortune by taking care Of charity fund
Mr.. Jay Cooke. to whose keeping the ma
tional loan vas entrusted by the Govern
Insnt, became so much enamOred of the sub
ject that he hired an able-bodicd Bohemian,
Of facile pen and easy conscience, to prove
that national debts were national blessings
The Bohemian earned his money, but the
public continued incrsdulous."
Thus writes, In the Richmond Times. a
Bohemian Of the secesh sort, and therefore q
hungrisr Bohemian than any ever employed
by Mr.. JAY CooKg, and he goes on to de
scribe. with the most poignant envy that a
hungry Bohemian could feel under the cir
cumstances, n house which Mr.. Cooke has
chosen to order his architect and carpenters
to build. Now it strikes US that with seven
thirties ut par it i'll becomes an liable. bodied
Bohemian Of the ex.confederacy, whose
bonds are as valueless as the bonds Of their
late slaves, to rail at JAY COOKE. Our
seven-thirties are at par to-day. We have
quoted them ut 100 lately, and whether a
national debt is national blessing or not,
the labors Of JAY COOKE 4 Co. in raising
the loans required to preserve the Govern
ment were blessing to the nation and de-
serve TO be " ell rewarded.
The appreciation of our bonds, both at
home and abroad, shows how well Mr.. Cooke
and his partners understood not only the de-
tails Of finance, bat the temper and the faith
of the American people, as we'll as their re-
sources. The fact that in spite Of the ad-
verse criticism and warning representations
of those who were faithless among the faith
full, our promises to pay are already held at
par, isa prOuder compliment to Mr.. COOKE
than any Bohemian of the South could pay

Mis-. Zelda Harrlson,s Concert.

Miss HARRIsoN's second concert, given at
Met1erott Hall last evening, was not as fully
attended as II would have been but for the
Presidents Leyee, but the singing gave great
satisfaction to critical and refined audience.
This young lady possesses a remarkable
voice, ranging as II does naturally and with
ease from full contralto upward through
mezzo soprano to thp regular soprano. 1t
will be readily understood that such q voice,
we'll cultivated and under control Of an in
telligent and most sympathetic musician, Is
capable Of producing wonderfully pleasing
effects in the concert room. Miss HARRIsoS
posse sses ine figure, a handsome and OK.
pressive face, and she comes before the au.
dience with look Of self consciousness and
confidence which, without any appear
ance Of effort or affsetatiou, immediately
inspires her listeners with an ASSURANCE that
she is mistress Of the music she intends to
sing. Her voice is fresh, melodious, and
sympathetic, and her intonatiOns true. Her
singing was received last evening with rap
turous applause, Miss Rosa CooKE and Mr..
EDwARp SEGUIs, who assisted her, were
warmly received and Mr.. MAS presided at

United States Senator from Vermont. died

two members Of the highest branch Of the
National Legislature, belonging to and rep.
ressnting the same State, and commanding
for themselves and their constituency the
highest respect.
Mr.. Foor was born in Cornwall, Addison
county, Vermont, In November, 1902, and
was graduated ct Middisbury College, In that
State, in 1895. He taught In various acad
emies and colleges until 1891, whom he was
admitted to the bar at Rutland, where ho
has since resided. He was sent to the State
Legislature for three consecutive years from
1885, and also inlls47. He was Speaker Of
the House for his last three years Of service
In that body. In 1885 he was q member Of
the State Constitutional Convention, and
was elected to Congress In 1912 and 1874.
At the close Of the last term, declining re-
election, he renewed his profession, but was
chosen to the United States Senate in 1850,
1856, and 1899. He was also president Of the
Brunswick and Florida Railroad Company,
Of Georgia. .......
He was q cleur-headed and well-read law
yer, and his varied abilities and manifold
good qualities gave him great political in
auence at home and in the national council.
Deliberative and judicial rather than argu-
mentative, his mind was always fully made
up when he came TO act upon legislative
subjects, and no was consequently decided In
his advocacy Of measures he had resolved to
support. Mr.. Foor was no less distinguished
for the kindness and urbanity Of his manners
than for his dignity Of bearing during his
long Senatorial career, and no face will be
more sorrowfully missed in that chamber,
whore he and his late colleague (Mr. COL
LANERl had made themselves so thoroughly
respected and so greatly beloved.
