One month later the United States had
new president. Vice President Tyler was
informed of the death of the president, and
that the duties of chief magistrate now
devolved upon him. He thereupon took and
subscribed the oath of office required by
the constitution before William Cranch,
chief justice of the supreme court Of the Dis
trict of Columbia. Chief Justice Cranch
thereupon drew up this notarial certificate
in regard to the new presidents act:

of William Henry Harrison, late president
of the United States, without any other

history-much of it legendary, we must

noted character. Ee seems to be a
composite personality, uniting the Boy

child who came down the chimney On
Christmas eve to I'll the children's

Fourth century, who, having inherited
a large fortune, devoted it to the re-
lieving of distress, and sometimes the
necessities of those who in some dis
tress of evil fortune became embar-
rassed, or reduced from wealth to pow
erty. The reindeer and the sleigh must
be of far northern origin. Thus the

creating personality which is SO dear

most simple, kindly and benefcent in

country are the washings from those
same rich sources. Years ago, in 1888,
as nearly as can remember, the placer
miners began working over Chelkat
Pass and into the Yukon district. Poor
~ clad, badly provisioned, they went
out year after year. Some of them went
half crazy, but they found gold. They
came back and brought their friends in
with them next time. The very immen-
sity OF what they found worked in their
favor. They told the truth, the exact
truth. 1t sounded like the boastful in
ventions of men who were trying TO
conceal their disappointment, Now,
when the gold dust itself is beginning
to come out of the mountains, people
believe them, but it's too late now to

money out OF the mines. Everything is
