The Presidents Talk.

l l
The rough rider in whom foreign
nations have come to recognize states
man OF the highest rank disclosed the
scholar versed alike in ancient and
modern literature. In its variety
grasp OF subject out of the way knowl-
edge and its evidence of marvellous
memory, the table talk of the president
reminds me more of Mr.. Gladstones
than of any man / have known.
The mystery Is how and when the
president of the United States finds
time for the voluminous. multifarious
reading that forms an appreciate por-
ton of his daily life. l gather that the
secret lies in using up odd ten minutes
and quarters of an hour, with occa-
sional awak ening at 8 o'clock in the
morning to lind book fortuitously by
his bedside. Early in the conversation
the president startled me by quoting
Solomon Peel, the attorney who plays
a casual part in the history OF Mr
Pfckwick From Peel to Pliny is far
cry in the alphabet, as are the refer
ences in literature. The president was
equal to both. 1t must not be supposed
from this rough manner of telling the
story that either Pliny or Peel was OBJ
trusively dragged into the conversa-
ton whether by head or by heels Each
reference served to illustrate turn In
the conversation. and was followed by
others equally happy.
Keenly observant swift and accurate
Judge of character, the president has
way of summing up the qualities of
public man. OF the German emperor
he remarked: IF he had been born an
American citizen. on however low a So
cial scale he would have come to be
boss of his ward"
