Mr.. Roosevelt, although a slckly child,
was regarded as something Of a prodigy
among his friends and family. There is
said 10 be yet a book extant which is
record of the cute and cunning" sayings
Of little Theodore. He was sent abroad
early in life, and improved his health
by earnest attention TO the laws Of
hygiene His return 10 America, his
going 70 the legislature and serving there.

while on the ranch for mayor of New
York. his services as civil service com
missioner and police commissioner-in
short. his whole career is familiar his
tory TO every reader.
IN his college days Theodore Roosevelt
took little interest in baseball, football.
and kindred sports. One Of his delights
was boxing, and he came within an ace
of winning the lightweight champion
ship at Harvard. He was fond of col
lecting geological and natural history
specimens, and none of his classmates re-
garded him as above the ordinary in the
student life. though he was one Of the
most studioUs members Of his class.
John Sharp Williams once remarked. in
a jocular moment, that he did not think
that the man who Is self-made deserves
so much credit as the one who is born
with a silver spoon in his mouth and then
makes something Of himself. Why" he
exclaimed, ''the fellow who is your poor
boy works because he has to- He learns

often that it exhausted the printers sup

But he has sobered down since then In
fact his whole bearing has been changed
since he became President Of the United

STOCK MARKET HAS
 VIOLENT DECLINES
Some Further Urgent Liquida-
 tiOnS Are Conducted
HOUSE CLEANING WORK
Some Violent Contrasts in the Market Are the Consequence of Freak Tradne-United States Steel
 Stock Heavily Sold.

New York, October 10.-There was some further urgent liquidation conducted at the Stock Exchange today, which caused violent declines in many sections of the list of securities, although at other times some show of stability was made, partly because of necessary liquidation in some stocks has already been effected, partly by reason of buying by uncovered shorts, who had followed the preceding decline, and partly, 1t was assumed, by reason Of supporting measures placed in the market by friends of various securities.
 Some violent contrasts in the market were the consequence. Industrial stocks as group were very weak and the movement in some of them gave clear evidence of a process of house cleaning going on, on the part of some of the commission houses. which had grown weary of carrying stale accounts, or were prompted to take in sail and to com pei their clients to do so
 If was reported that in some loans that were maturing severe discrimination was exercised against some of the indus trial stocks which figured as collateral. The motives for this cleaning up process were not indicated by any immediate news of the day, but the condition of the money market and the prospect of additional strain that was believed to lie back of the action. The fact that call money holds firmly near 6 per cent as it has done since the first of the month. in itself proves dlseouraging to the carry ing of quiescent accounts.
 An incident was the heavy selling of United States Steel preferred, which car Tried it down to a level where the rate of dividend return IS higher than on the common stock. The notable feature of the market was the resistance offered by some of the stocks which are favorte mediums of the most active speculation

COTTON MARKET IS VERY UNSETTLED Closes Barely Steady At Net
 Decline
FALLS 24 TO 20 POINTS
Close Is Practically at the Lowest Point of the Season-Jobbers Make Exceedingly Strong Ef-
 forts to Cancel Orders.

New York October 10.-The cotton mar ket was weak and unsettled. during the days trading, and closed barely steady at a net decline of 24 to 2S points, Sales were estimated at 3O0,000 bales
 The opening day was steady at a de- cline of three or four points, which was about as due, on the cables. The loss was due to liquidation and Wall street selling early in the session and was en- couraged by the failure of the weather map to show low enough temperatures to cause damage to the plant, but dur ing the morning aggressive pressure was held in check by the bullish character of private cables from Liverpool which predicted an advance on the good de- mand, and the firmness of southern holders
 Fluctuations were more or less irreg- ular during the early session. Later the market broke sharply under New Orleans and Wall street pressure, which seemed to be promoted by indefinite rumors of weakening in the interior markets and reports from Boston that jobbers in the cotton goods market were trying to can eel orders for forward shipment.
 The close was practically al the lowest point of the session. Liverpool spot sales were large enough to attract attention, but local sentiment seemed too bearish on the expectation of lower spot mar kets December maintained a premium of about six or seven points over Jan uary.
