speaker:
Under these conditions Christianity

the conquering power of great reVo-

beliefs Christianity presented four no.

of principles and not of rules, and the
gospel is one of love, of loyalty to ones

will attend the funeral, which will be
held at p. M. Friday afternoon. In
Difference to Mrs. Cleveland'S wishes it
will be as private as possible.
Mr.. Clevelands body will be buried
in Princeton cemetery in the family
plot where lie the ashes of Ruth, the
eldest of the Cleveland children, whose
death was sad blow to her father
Mrs. Cleveland denied herself to all
but a few callers Among those who
came here today personally to extend
their sympathy was Cleveland F. Ba-
con of New York, a nephew of Mr..
Cleveland. He is assisting Mrs. Cleve-
land in the funeral arrangements. Paul
Morton, president of the Equitable Life
Assurance Society. of which Mr.. Cleve-
land was trustee, and Richard Wat
son Glider, also came to Princeton.
So unexpectedly did Mr.. Cleveland's
death occur that not one of his four
children We're at home. They are at the
Cleveland summer home at Tamworth,
~ H., under the care of Mrs. Perrine,
Mrs. Clcveland's mother.
Ever since Mr.. Cleveland's arrival
here, II years ago, he has been con-
Spcuous figure in Princeton. Although
his only official connection with Prince
ton University, the tutorShip, known
as the Stafford Little Lccturcship in
public affairs, and his membership in
the board of trustees, he was regarded
as a strong friend of the institution.
1t was announced late tonight that
the hour for the funeral on Friday had
been fixed at p. NJ. None of the other
funeral arrangements have been
definitely decided upon and probably
will not be made public until tomor-
row.
Only two of the Cleveland children
who are at Tamworth, N. H,-Esther
and Richard-wll attend the funeral.
They are expected tomorrow. Marion
and Frances will remain at Tamworth
With Mrs Perrine.
Among the kilograms sent by Mrs.
Cleveland to relatives and friends was
one to President Roosevelt and one to
Secretary of War Taft. The death of
Mr. Cleveland came as a terrible shock
to the people Of Princeton, VIII" were
proud of their fellow citizen. They have
always had d warm spot for both the
ex-President and Mrs. Cleveland be-
cause they selected Princeton as their
home after they left the White House.
His death to them was not in the least
expected and many at first refused to
believe the sad news.
Flags all over Princeton are at half
staff.
There seems to have been an effort
on the part Of the physicians to keep
the seriousness of the cX-Presldent
condition from the public
When Mrs. Cleveland was seen last
night by {. reporter for The Associated

manifested no anxiety about her hus-
