Naturally enough, Roosevelt would
not be content to sit behind desk
while there was fighting going on. lie
submitted his resignation TO the presl-

Then came the rough rider idea, the

"Roosevelt's rough riders"

experience as captain in the Eighth
regiment, but net enough, in his esd

took the second Pace and was content
to learn from his friend, DR.. Wood.

history of the rough riders from the

His Life Well Insured.

New York, Sept. 5.-That President
Mckinley expected to live many years
is evidenced by the amount of insurance
he carried on his life and his wife's.
After his reelection he had made prep
arations for the distant future long
after he would have retired from his
high Office. Only few weeks ago, it
can be said on high authority, he had
changed a straight life insurance policy
of $50, 600 for twenty years life en-
dowment. Had he lived 90 years he
would have received the face value OF
the policy. He carried this $50, 600
policy in one of the big New York
companies.
1t was announced yesterday Sunday
by another large company that the
company had paid Saturday to Mrs.
Mckinley policy amounting to Slo,,
900. Several experts yesterday placed
the total amount at not more than
SO, 900.

ROOSEVELT
Interesting Career and
Home Life of the
New President of
the United
States.

Theodore Roosevelt, the new presi-
dem of the United States, is one Of
the most remarkable men in this cOun-
try. His career, which from the outset
has been a most strenuous one, may
be divided into nine phases or stages,
leading up to the tenth as president,
upon the duties of which he is just en-
tering.
In nine different roles he has given
evidence of the attributes that make
him today perhaps the most talked of
man of forty-tnsee in the world.
OF aristocratic birth, a member of a
family distinguished for valor, patri-
otism and culture for many genera
tions, young Roosevelt first sued for
public favor when he appeared as can
didate for assemblyman in his native
city, New York. He was then just out
of college, 1870, and was twenty-one
years of age.
Even his opponents admit that he
was Jealous servant of his own par.
ty-an unwavering Republican. HIS
was then, as now, athletic and remark
able for his boundless energy, his in
terest in people and things and his I'm
failing enthusiasm.
The second stage of Mr.. Roosevelt'l
public career was that in which he an
nounced himself as candidate for may.
or of New York.
1t was very characteristic that he
should with his belief in himself, con.
slider the office Of mayor one which he
was equipped to fill, but unquestiona-
bly, If Mr.. Roosevelt were consulted to-
day he would agree with his friends
that his defeat in this race was bene.

for mayor, Mr.. Roosevelt next appears

impetus Of family and the favorable
material conditions in which he found
himself as IL as by the force of his
own personality, Roosevelt might have
advanced rapidly in any path he chose,
whether it led toward brilliant social
success or the making of large for
tune. That he chose a career of public
service is characteristic of the man,
| the more so in that he saw in the
course he .Lad marked out for himself
small chance Of pecuniary remunera-
ton and a struggle for principle that
might jeoDardize those rewards that
are the politicians. Once decided he

POLICE COMMISSIONER OF
NEW YORK.

The fifth stage of Mr.. Roosevelt's
career was embodied in his service as
police commissioner of New York city.
Other cOmmiss oners have come and
gone, and their records are more or less
prosaic, but tie history of Theodore
Roosevelt stands out again picturesque,
dramatic and alive with the intensity
Of the mans nature, an intensity which
differentiates him at every step of his
career from his predecessors or success
sors. AS police commissioner Mr.. ROOse-
welt made New York seethe with eX-
element. Disguised, he visited at night
the various precincts, seeing for him
self and testing the probity and capa-
bility of his corps. BY day he fought
the other police commissioners, he up
set old time rules and enforced old time
blue laws" because, as he explained,
they were In the statute books and
must be obeyed until they were re-
pealed.
The sixth phase of Mr.. Roosevelt's
career was brief but most satisfactory,
and was embraced in the short time of
his service as assistant secretary of the
navy. Colonel Roosevelt was nominal
ed by President Mckinley on April 6,
1897. On April IL he rendered his resig-
nation as police commissioner to Mayor
Strong of New York city.
