Sayre Had Brilliant College
Career and Is Deep Student
of Law and Politics.

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Miss Jes-
sic Woodrow Wilson, always the
chum and admirer of her father, the
President, has not departed from this
role in the circumstances surround
ing her selection Of a husband. Fol
one thing Washington society has
discovered, with a collective gasp OF
surprise, that Francis Bowes Sayre
the man Of her choice. is a younger
replica of her famous father, possess
ing the same ascetcism of counte
nance, the same brow. nose, chin
eyes. and all
For another thing. Miss Wilson fol-
lows her father in laughing down the
time-worn superstition regarding the
unluckiness Of thirteen. 1t matters
not to her that she Will be the thir-
teenth White House bride in the
year 1913.
Admiration for Father Deep.
All Washington to-day, following
its discovery that Sayre possesses
something like the Wilson phystog-
nomy, is wondering whether that fact
had not a great deal to do with Miss
Jessies capitulation to the young
lawyers suit. Her admiration for her
father is profound. as is that of the
entire Wilson family.
Never did hero worship exist In so
marked a degree as in the family Of
the President, with the President as
the figure for alteration. And now,
after the first shock Of discovery,
Washington society is beginning to
pass the remark that 1t is nothing
but natural that a Wilson girl should
marry a man like her father.
Young Sayre's career has been laid
along lines Identical with the early
career Of the President. A brilliant
college record, the reputation achiev-
ed Of a scholar and a leader. a vigor-
Gus plunge into laval this he has
done. just as Woodrow Wilson did
before him
Like Woodrow Wilson, too, his pre-
objections have been toward the part
of law in political economy and in
sociology.
1t was through his interest in So
cial betterment work that he and
Miss Jessie Wilson acquired their at
tachment.
Miss Wilson Prominent Worker.
Miss Wilson has been prominent in
work OF this kind, being a member of
the national executive board of the
Y. W. G. A. In this capacity she
visited the Night Court for Women
in New York City, together with Mrs.
J. Borden Hartman last winter She
also visited the Children's Court In
February Miss Wilson addressed the
Legislature of Delaware in behalf of
a tenhour law for working women.
The Legislature passed the bill In
Richmond, Va, last year. Miss Wilson
spoke before crowds that filed two

address an overflow meeting.
President Wilson's career has been
strangely intermingled with the sup
posedly unlucky number thirteen, and
Miss Wilson Is to become the thir-
teenth White House bride.
But the daughter Of the President
is not one of those persons who de-
cline to sit in the thirteenth row at
the theater or object to being the thir-
teenth guest at an entertainment.

This was the question Mrs. Dorothy

said, was patient at the Clara Bar

had attended him for ten days.
He suffered a relapse and an opera
ton was declared by the attending
physicians TO be necessary to save his
life. He was placed upon the operat-

nurse
When she appeared, he told her that
he loved her-that life without her
was not worth living. If she prom

to the operation necessary to save his

would die.
The operation was successful and
two days later the couple were mar

never lived with her husband. who
contested the action.
Judge Monroe held that the young
woman had failed to make out a case
legally. Mrs, Lander was heartbroken
when the court denied the decree.

coE swAMPs LEANDER CLARK
Presbyterian School Wins from To-

Cedar Rapids, Oct 25.-Coe's victory
bell rang again yesterday afternoon
the occasion being the defeat Of Mike
Hylands proteges of Leander Clark
college. When the final white blew,
Coe had double celebration. for the
score was 13 to 0 in their favor, and
for the second time this year no OPP
ponents OF the conference had crossed
their goal.
1t was great game watched by one
of the largest crowds that ever wit
messed a gridiron scrinmage on Coe
field. There were 1900 there to see
the United Brethren of Toledo go to
defeat. A contingent of Leander Clark
rooters followed their warriors here
and urged their team on, but 1t was
of no avail, that they strained their
lungs. Coe outplayed the visitors in
three periods of the game. 1t was the
second period when Leander Clark
had Coe on the run. But with the ad-
vantage all their own in this period
the invaders failed to score. Twice
during that period they attacked Coe'
goal line from the ten yard mark, but
here Coe braced, and it was useless fol-
Leander Clark to storm the wall that
the Coe line presented. They were bel"
for four downs. and then the ball was
driven from the danger zone.
