Josiah Quincy, ex-Democratic May
or OF Boston, one of President Roose-
velt's classmates at Harvard, says of
him: "He is in many respects as
broad and typical an American as
the country has produced. His class
mates were proud chat one of their
number won upon his own merits the
second office in the gift of the Ameri-
can people, and now that political
assassination has unexpectedly called
him to occupy the first, they look for
ward to his coming administration
with deep personal interest, and they
trust and believe that thestrong per
sonal character which they knew in
college Days, tempered and formed by
wide experience Of life, sobered it
may be by the heavy responsibilities
which have now been placed upon him,
will give his name an honorable place
among American Presidents, and en-
able him to serve successfully the
highest interests of the country"

LEW WALLACE'S GRIT.
A Hitherto Untold Story Which Illus
trateS it.


Gen. Lew Wallace, according to his
own words, was a poor student in his
young manhood. He grew tired of
his college course after six weeks and
returned home. But his failure at
college furnished the turning point in
his career. He says:
81 shall never forget what my fa-
ther did when l returned home. He
called me into his office and took
from a pigeonhole in his desk a pack
age of papers neatly folded and tied
with red tape. He was a very sys-
tematic man, because, perhaps, of his
West Point training. The papers
proved to be the receipts for my tu-
ition, which he had carefully pre-
served. He called off the items, and
asked me to add them. The total,
confess, staggered me.
