judging from the amused countenances Of

Levi was speaking quickly, his attitude

In an instant Levi tossed his cigar into

grave family servant again, as with a
quick gesture of his hand he left the

In a few moments he returned, closing

One hundred and sixteen years ago the

elected. Twenty-Five Presidents have
been elected since then. making the aver
age term for each. four years and eight
months.
Had each been elected for a single term
Of four years. with nc reelection. We
would have rad twenty-nine Presidents
to date. However. there would have been
but twenty II each one had been re-elect-

McKinley-were reelected. All but In
coin and Mckinley served their fun
terms. Five-William Henry Harrison.
Taylor. lincoln. Garfield. and Mckinley
died Ia Office.
The Vice Presidents who succeeded these
Presidents served seventeen years. an
average OF three and a half years. or al
most a fun term each. Harrison survived
his inauguration only thirty-one days.
and Lincoln his second Inauguration
forty-two days, so that Tyler and John
son each practically served a full term
Arthur and Roosevelt served three years
and a half each. and Fillmore two.
Based upon past experience. there is
one chance against four that a President

All but Washington. William Henry
Harrison. and Grant were lawyers, al
though few. If any attained to great emf

Monroe, Hayes, Garfield, Benjamin
Harrison, Arthur. Mckinley, and Roose-

Washington, Jackson, William Henry
Harrison. Taylor and Grant we're elected
primarily on account Of successful milf
tary achievements.
Both AdamSes, Jefferson. Madison.
Monroe, Van Buren. Buchanan, Lincoln,
Cleveland, Mckinley. and Roosevelt were
chosen by reason OF distinguished polie-
cal careers.
Polk, Pierce. Hayes, and Garfield were
nominated as compromise candidates, be-

prominent aspirants.

Scottish Treasure that Was Hidden
Beneath Pulpit of Parish Church.
From the Westminster Gazette.
The curious story Of the search among
tombstones for the stolen regalia revealed
in the minutes Of evidence heard by the
viceregal commission on the loss OF the
Dublin Castle jewels recalls the interest
ing fact that the Scottish crown Jewels,
which mysteriously disappeared at the
time Of the Cromwellian invasion, were
buried for safety. There were located In
Dunottar Castle, which was besieged by
Cromwell. and on the eve Of surrender
Lady Ogilvie, wife of the commander OF
the beleagured force. managed TO elude
the besiegers and get the jewels out OF
the castle.
They were buried beneath the pulpit in
the parish church, and the place where
they were hidden was never revealed till
the Restoration. OgiIvie was rewarded
with a baronetcy, and Keith, who misled
the Cromwellians by stating that they
were in the possession of the exiled
Charles II. was made an earl
