won't ask me her name" and then he
proceeded to describe her as the
mother of the wife of the young man
the tall man-who speaks so well"
and so on, until his interlocutor
guessed to whom he was referring.
Even the names of common objects
often failed him completely. On one
occasion, when he wanted an umbrel-
la, he said: 81 can't tell it's name. but
l can tell it's history. Strangers take
it away"
This failing of Emerson led to a
pathetic scene when he attended
Longfellow's funeral, and remarked as
he gazed at the coffin: "He was a
sweet and beautiful soul; but | have
entirely forgotten his name"

Yale Classmates to Be Taft's Intimates

posed OF teachers, and next come the

These are the Bens. the Bobs, the
Jims of the next president. AS boys
and men they have been closest to
his heart He knows their wives and
their children. No matter how busy
he is always ready to hear about a
new baby or grandchild or an old
classmate. With many he keeps up
correspondence. He may not appoint
as many of them to office as Roose-
welt did Rough Riders. but the White
House doors are sure to be open TO
them These are the men who will
come and get their names in the pa
pers, instead of the bristling, noisy
Rough Riders.
A few of the most prominent mem
bers of the class are:
Herbert w. Bowen, diplomatist; he
was serving as minister to Venezue-
la while Taft was secretary of war,
and was recalled by President Roose
welt because of certain diplomatic in
discretions Before being appointed to
Venezuela he was minister to Persia.

Connecticut legislature and former as
sistant tax commissioner of New York.

leader in Albany and for three terms
member of the state senate.

reads: THE Old Aston House Store"
In reply to an inquiry the proprietor
said: The business was established
in the vicinity of the old Astor house
when the latter was the big hotel of
New York. Later on 1t moved up to
Fourteenth street and carried the
name OF the old hotel with it, Some
years after it moved up to Forty sec
ond street and the name went with 1t.
Then it jumped all the way to Har-
lem and, as the name had become one
of the fixtures of the business. 1t was
maintained. The business now is in
the hands OF the third generation OF
the family that established 1t. Just a
bit of sentiment. New York Press.
