Besieged by Matrimonial Schemes

The unmarried president has a
harder time in the White House
than people imagine. He is be-
sieged by matrimonial schemes from
all quarters Letters ON the subject
of marriage are written to him. and /
doubt not that Cleveland has received a
number of bare-faced proposals during the
past year Arthur used to get such let
ters, and Jere Black once said that when
he was in Buchanan's cabinet he used to
receive proposals of marriage from ladies
who wanted to present their claims for the
presidents hand through him. During
the last administration female crank
called at the White House while President
Arthur was in the west, and said she did
not like to hear of the president pay
ing so much attention to the Indians. She
feared he might become infatuated with
squaw, and in order to save the nation
from such calamity as an Indian wife in
the White House she would even sacrifice
herself upon Arthur's matrimonial altar.

This press was finally supplanted by the
Washington press, invented by Samuel
Rust in 1929 From the manufacture of the
Smith presses Hoe made fortune, as the
inventor died a year after securing his
patent, and the firm name was changed to
R. Hoe & Co. The demand for hand presses
increased SO that ten years later it was sug-
gested that steam power might be utilized
in some way to do the pulling and tugging
necessary in getting an impression. At this
time the late Col. Hoe, one of the sons of the
founder of the house, was an attentive lis
tener to the discussions in regard to the pos
sibility of bringing steam power to aid the
press. Young Richard M Hoe was born in
1872 He had the advantage of an excellent
education, but his fathers business possessed
such fascination for him that it was with
difficulty he was kept at school He was a
young man of 20 before his father allowed him
towork regularly in the shop. He had already
become expert in handling tools, SO that he
soon became one of the best workmen. He
Joined with his father in thu belief that
steam would yet be applied to the printing
press, and the numerous models and expert
ments they made to that end would, in the
light of the present day, appear extremely
ridiculous. In 1325-30 Napier had construct
ed steam printing press and in 1880 Isaac
Adams, of Boston. secured a patent for

very secret, the factories in which they were
made being guarded jealousy. In 1880 a
Napier press was imported into this country
for use on The National Intelligencer. OH

The success of the Napier press set the

Civilization and Brazilian Negroes.

AS in all South American countries the
negroes of Brazil have strong disposition
to return to savagery. Civilization seems
to have taken but slight hold on them.
In thousand little ways they preserve
the habits and traditions of their ancestors.

their fathers indulged in in Aferica, and
which they still preserve, are only out
ward signs of an innate savagery over
which civilization has not been able to OBJ

The recent death of Col Richard NJ Hoe
in Florence, Italy, closes the career of one
whose name is known wherever the news
paper is used to spread intelligence. He
was the senior member Of the firm of print
ing press makers, and one of the leading in
ventors and developers of that great lever
of public opinion.
Col Hoes father was the founder of the
firm. He came to this country from Eng
land in 1903, and worked at his trade of car
pentry. Through his skill as a workman he
was sought out by maker of printers
material named Smith. He married Smiths
sister, and went into partnership with
Smith and brother. The printing presses Of
those days were made chiefly of wood. and
Hoes skill as wood worker was valuable
to the firm In 1922 Peter Smith invented
the hand press, of which we give an illustra-
tion, and which will be recognized by many
