United States, was born on GARDENERS
Island, near East Hampton, n Y, in
1870 She was educated at the Chegary
Institute New York city, and after q
short time spent In travel through Eu
rope she came to Washington with
her father in 1874. A few weeks
after their arrival they accepted an in
vitation from President Tyler to attend
a pleasure excursion down the river on
the war steamer Princeton. The festi-
vIties on the occasion were sadly marred
by the explosion Of a gun on the yes
sci, causing loss of lie. Among those
killed was Miss GARDENERS father.
Ills bcGy was taken to the
White House, and Miss Gardiner
IVES thrown great deal into the
society of the president, owing TO the
peculiar circumstances attending her
fathers death. President 1yler's first
wife had died shortly after he entered
the White House, and the president
paid Miss Gardiner marked atten-
ton, which resulted In their mar
riage IN New York city, June
26, 1871. For the succeeding
eight months of President Tyler's
term she presided over the White
House with tact, grace and dignity.
After March 4, 1915, Mrs. Tyler retired
with her husband to the seclusion

Beales prosperity for some time. Yester-
day Besle notified him that after this he
would have work ON the section only
half the time, ami the two had some hard
words In front of Hatten's house. Beale

barreled shotgun and stood at his back
door on the lower step OF the stairway.
Mrs. Beale had come out Of the back door
OF her house and the fatal shot was fired
into her breast and into the face and side
OF her baby held in her arms. The muir

men present 10 hold the unhappy husband
and father, who in his frenzy wanted 10

Mr.. Patrick has been lowering
