THIS IS MY 64th BIRTHDAY.
Andrew s. DRAPER.

DR.. Andrew S. Draper, who for
many years has occupied a foremost
place in American educational cir
cles, was born at Westford, N. Y,
June 21, 1S4S. He received an aca-
demic education and afterward took
a course of law at Union College. For
nine years after being admitted to
the bar he practiced law in Albany.
The next three years were spent in
Washington, where he served as
member of committee appointed by
President Arthur to Investigate the
Alabama claims When this work
was completed he returned to the
practice of his profession in Albany.
In 1886 he was elected state SUPER
intendent of public instruction of
New York. He continued in this
position for eight years and during
the next two years he was superin-
tendent of public schools in Cleve-
land. In 1894 DR.. Draper was elect
ed president of the University of Illi-
nois. He remained at the head of
the university ten years, when he re-
signed to accept his present position
as commissioner Of education of the
State of New York.
Congratulations to:

Shah of Persia, 40 years old today.

luck is bound to follow. And If q
white bird happens to fly aboard q
brand new craft it insures the vessel
with all kinds Of Joy forever, Out on
Georges. two weeks ago today, q little
pigeon fluttered down on the deck Of
the good ship Mary, perching on the
wheel box. Result-good luck. AL
though Capt. Whallen's boat struck
mighty hard weather, it came through

pounds Of mixed ground fish, mostly

ly the record catch for a maiden trip.
The pigeon looked as though 1t had
had some pretty hard luck itself before
It fell in with the Mary, however. One
of its wings was badly torn, as though
gull or hawk had taken piece out
of it. Tho men aboard took good care
of the pigeon, giving it plenty of food,
although they made no attempt to con-
fine it to any one part Of the vessel.
The bird made friends with every one,
especially the cook, and refused to eat
except out of the mems hands. AS the

Whatever the outcome may be COL
onel Roosevelt's great reputation as
a politician is bound to suffer through
the mistake of having too many con-
testing delegations, and even at the
last stand coupling some claims of
very doubtful validity with enough
of evident validity, if the probable in
valid ones had been left out, to con-
troll the convention. In other words,
his interests suffered by coupling
with valid claims, which would have
been sufficient to control the conven-
tion, claims of doubtful validity that
were not needed. On top of the vote
of $40 yesterday he only needs thirty
more votes. Texas and Washington,
where his claims are undoubtedly
valid, would give him ten to spare,
Another mistake is in allowing
Heney to b1ackguard everybody, and
in letting Finn play the part of a
bulldozer. People don't like it, Many
people who are favorable to Roose-
welt have been disgusted with the
performances of these two men. They
are as much of a handicap to him as

ley are to Mr.. Taft.-St. Paul Dis

TENDERNESS TO The AGED
Those In Their Helpless Years Should
30 Treated With Kind and
Gentle Regard.

Nothing is more beautiful or Christ
like in the character Of the young
woman than kind and gentle regard
for the old. They whose failing steps
are slowly descending the sunless
slope Of age have but one consolation
as the years speed by them, and that
is the tenderness and consideration of
those on whose lives the beauties Of
the morning are breaking. Age is a
season of physical infirmity, of men
tai retrospection, of shattered dreams
and earthly disappointments. No more
for the old is there a glimmer in tho
rolling stars, no more freshness in the
spring, no more a triumph in the
years. The thousand melodies Of the
present sound far on to their aged
ears and its charms are blurred in the
ears and eyes whose tears fall on the

remarks Father Mcmahon said: "The

it now. Anyone reading opposition
