Princeton at u NJ, Thursday.
Parents Receive Congratulations -Prince ton
Students Particularly Pleased.

Princeton, N. j., Oct. 28.-A son and
heir to ex-President Cleveland was
born, today at IL o'clock Rumor has
it that the now conner resembles his
father, but neither Mr.. Cleveland nor
the family physician, DR.. Bryant, DR..
McCook of New York, and DIR. Wyckoff
of Princeton. will say anything in re-
gard to the baby other than he is
getting along nicely and is "ane
boy"
All the afternoon, Mr.. Cleveland has re-
ceived at his home the many callers who
wished to pay their respects to him in
honor of the occasion. Some have con-
graduated the ex-President personally
but many preferred to leave their cards
with best wishes for mother and son.
Prominent among those who called were
Mrs. Cornwall Mrs. Hibben. Mrs. NJ. T.
Payne, Miss Patton and Prof. Andrew
West. kilograms of congratuation were
received without number Among the
first to proffer congratulations by, wire
were Joseph Jefferson. f. c. Benedict,
Secretary Thurber and J. G. Carlisle.
Princeton undergraduates have taken
great interest in the new Princetonian.
The fact that Cleveland heir was born
was announced during the Varsity prac-
tice. this afternoon. There was a big
gathering of UNDERGRADUATES on the field

practice. When the announcement was
made. three Princeton cheers were given
for the boy, three for the mother and
three more for the father. 1t is probable
that the undergraduates will serenade
Mr.. Cleveland and his heir at some future
date.
On the college bulletin board in front
of Reunion hall was posted the following
notice:

Il after Roberts funeral His widow

TT was in the gray OF the morning
after Roberts funeral. His widow
sat in the larger of the two rooms that
had lately been their home, silent and
without tears-almosts withoutsthought
or memory, too, for the ordeal had left
her capable of little more than the con-
seriousness that he had left her, never
to come back.
Suddenly the first red rays of the
rising sun shot into the room, brighten
ing it perceptibly, in spite Of their dull
ing passage through the smoky city
atmosphere. Slowly her faculties came
back to her, the memory first.
So dim and shadowy were the. pic
lures of her childhood that the details
were lost. There was the death Of her
father, and later that of the mother.
Then she was alone in thesvillage where
their home had: been, X Her struggles
with life after that were shadowy, also,
till she met Robert.
But from that point the memory pen
Gil wrought swiftly and vividly. The
courtship, the marriage, the brief vii
lage life. the promising chance in the
big city and the removal from the viii
lage and the birth of the baby. Then
the day of the accident when Robert
was brought home in an ambulance.
He was not seriously hurt. the surgeon

had been thrifty and bad money in the
bank-much more than enough to tide

Insects Drowned In = Plants Leaves.
There is a quaint plant, and a very
pretty one, quite common in the north
ern states, that grows in peat bogs. It
has large: flowers with an odd, umbrella
like shield in the center. The shape Of
this has given it the name of side saddle
flower, but it does not look very much
like a side saddle. The most familiar
name for the plant is pitcher plant,
and it. is sometimes called huntsman's
cup, or purple trumpet leaf.
This pitcher plant has leaves shaped
like open cups, that stand up from the
ground in a cluster. They are general
ly about half full Of rain water, in which
many insects are drowned. It is prob
able that these serve as food for the
plant. The pitchers are gayly colored
green, with dark red or purple vein
ing, and sometimes purple all over.
