Theodore Roosevelt was born in New
York city, October 27, 1858. His
father, also named Theodore, mer-
chant and philanthroplst, was Of
Knickerbocker stock, and his mother
was u descendant Of Archibald Bull
loch, the first president of Georgia in
the revolution.
Their son was sickly boy, but rigid
discipline and systematic exercise
brought him vigorous strength. He
was prepared for college In private
schools, and was graduated at Har-
ward in 1880. After travelling in Eur
ope, be began the study of law, but
abandoned 1t for politics. In 1881 lie
was elected by the Republicans to the
assembly from the Twenty-first dis
trict of New York city, and was twice
reelected.
The first two legislatures in which
he sat were Democratic. In his second
year he was leader Of the minority
in the cities committee, and he be-
came the chairman of the Republican
legislature in 1884, after being an un-
successful candidate for speaker. He
was active in promoting the passage
of the first New York civil service
laws, was chairman of committee
that Investigated abuses in New York
city and secured acts abolishing the
fee system in county offices and dey
priving the aldermen of veto power
over the mayors appointments. He
favored q bill reducing elevated rail-
road fares, but when Governor Cleve-
land vetoed it he sustained the veto.
After retiring from the legislature
he bought ranch in North Dakota,
became an enthusiastic sportsman,
and for many years he has spent his
vacations in hunting trips.
In 1884 he was a delegate at large to
the Republican national convention,
where he advocated the nomination of
George f. Edmunds, but he supported
Mr. Blaine In the campaign. The Re-
publlcans nominated him for mayor
of New York in 1886 against Henry
George, the United Labor candidate
and Abram $. Hewitt, the Democratic
candidate, who was elected. President
Harrison appointed him n civil servlc,
commissioner in 1880.
He served efficiently until May, 1895
when he resigned, and became presi
dent of the New York city board OF
nnIfnn M ,iS,si in tp bn n1, t,,ts
tration of Mayor Strong. He estab
lished policy of strict enforcement
of liquor and Sunday laws. and this
aroused much opposition, but IL
stopped police protection OF vice and
restored discipline to the force.
Mr.. Roosevelt was appointed assist
ant secretary of the navy in April

InE pCLLo.
Heard ye the bells in the nighttime,
The sob-the pausc--the wall,
AS they swung in the saddened belfry
And tolled their pitiful tale?
Dead" was the word they muffied.
And stricken with sudden dread
Were the hearts of the wakened peo-
pie
BY that "Dead-dead--deadr
The sobblng bells of the night time
Were kissed by the breeze Of dawn,
And the whispering leaves repeated
''He is gone! He is gonev'
Alas for the bells of mourning!
Alas for the news they sped,
With their dull, staccato beating,
"Tbe President Is dead!''
But ring, yc bells Of glory!
Ring out In welcoming cheer,
For crossed is the vale of shadows,
"The President Is here!"

State, who It would seem by the terms
of the law is to be first eligible to the
office OF President. For instance, IL
President Roosevelt should die, Sec
retary of state Hay would become
President. He would appoint his own
Secretary Of State. Now. II President
Hay should die, his successor would
be the Secretary Of State, and not the
Secretary of the Treasury under the
Roosevelt regime.

THE ORDER OF SUCCESSION.

There has been some confusion In
the public mind concerning the Presi-
Dental succession, caused very large
ly by the fact that in 1885, Congress
sought to meet the constant danger
that was present In case OF the death
OF both President and Vice President
Under the law previously existing
provision was made for the death OF
the Vice President while acting as
President, by making the Speaker of
the House next In succession, and
there stopped. In this there was in
volved the possibility that the whole
character OF the national administra-
tion might be changed by the induc-
tion, In the midst OF a Presidential
term, OF public official of political
hostility 10 the plans and purposes Of
The Chief Executive elected by the peo-
pie, and also that the law provided for
the mlngling OF the executive and leg
lslativc branches OF the government,
with these conditions In View Con
gress provided that In case OF the
fea;h or disability of both the PreSl-
dent and Vice President, the office Of
President should fall TO members Of
the Presidents Cabinet In this order:
The Secretary of State, the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury, the Secretary OF
War, the Attorney General, the Post
master General. the Secretary OF the
Navy and the Secretary OF the In
terior
This succession Is subject 10 the pro
viso that these officials must be "cli.
gible TO the Office OF President, 1. O.,
born In the country; thirty-nve years
Of age; and for fourier years, a resi-
dent within the United States
The present members Of the Cab
met who would be eligible, In case OF
the death or disability OF Presiden,
Roosevelt, are.
Secretary Hay .....,..... Indians
secretary Gage ..........New Yorl
Secretary Root New forl
Attorney General Knox. Pennsylvania
