Princeton, N. j., March 1S.-This
is a great day in Princeton. 1t is
the birthday anniversary of Grover
Cleveland, the only living eX-presi-
dent of the United State, who for
many years has been the most dis
tinguished citizen of this old college
town. The famous statesman today
enters upon his seventy-second year,
having been born on March Is, 1887.
Scores of prominent people, includ-
ing many members of the Princeton
faculty, today called at the Cleve-
land family home, Westlands, to pay
their respects to the aged man who
has now become known as the Sage
of Princeton" A steady procession
of messenger boys began early this
morning to deliver the kilograms of
congratulations that are pouring in
from all over the land and from for
eign countries. Princeton students
took an enthusiastic part in the days
observances.
There is every prospect that the
number of congratulatory messages
received today will exceed in num-
ber those arriving year ago, when
Mr.. Cleveland reached the scriptural
limit of three score years and ten,
proving conCius.velv tia. with the
passing years the popularity of the
Sage of Princeton" is steadily
growing. While he has not yet ac-
lively engaged in politics for several
years. his opinion is eagerly sought
by Democratic politicians and states
men all over the country and by the
newspapers. For time he was held
responsible, in many quarters, for
the panic of 1898, just as President
Roosevelt has been blamed for last
years fiancial furry, but this feeling
has now apparently died out and
there is every probability that Mr..
Cleveland will live many years to
enjoy the justification of his course
that is now being accorded him.
Mr.. Cleveland has steadily turned
a deaf ear to all temptations of
return to public office. He has
steadfastly taken the position that
any American who has received the
highest honor in the gift of the
American people and that to accept !
any other public office would not
only be selfish, but anti-climax.
1t has now been twenty-three
years since Cleveland was first in
augurated. Other Presidents have
survived longer than after taking
the oath of office. John Adams,

jefferson survived twenty-five
years after the beginning of his first
term. Madison went him two years
better, and lived twenty-sevcn years.
John Quincy Adams made record
of twenty-nine years, Martin Van
Buren, twenty-five, and Tyler TWEEN
ty-one. Fillmore lasted twenty
four.
1t is a significant fact, and one
that proves how much greater is the
strain of the office now than since
