Aaron Burr and Mrs. Provost We're mar
ried on July g. 1850. at Albany. New York

The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-11-11

Aaron Burr was, for many years, one
of the foremost of Americans, and only
his great ambition led to his downfall
and finally to his exile from friends and
country. AS a statesman, in the light in
which we view him today. he is not much
TO be admired. There is, however, a true
and interesting side to mis- character
that which we find when we look at his
domestic relations with his wife, Theo-
dosia, and the affection between himself
and his daughter. All the misfortunes
of his life came after he was bereft of
the loving and intellectual woman who
gave purpose and balance to that gifted
but erratic nature.
Burr met his wife, Theodosia Provost,
when he was a young officer in the revo-
lutionary army. She was widow with
two children, and was 10 years Burrs
senior. The only hesitation about the
marriage was the disparity in their ages
But Mrs. Burr was a beautiful and
charming woman. then SO years of age
At this time Burr was a man of INTEL
lectual development far beyond his years.
He was an impetuous lover, and married
Theodosia In spite of reason. The mar
riage turned out most happily. and Mrs.
Provost proved a wife lovable enough
to retain till the last the heart she had
won, which was faithful only to her.
Burr said of Theodosia: "She was the
only perfect lady I ever knew" This
was high praise from a man so fastidi-
Gus. And he writes to her in one of his
latest letters, after they had been nearly
u years welded: 1T was a knowledge
of your mind which first inspired me
with a respect for that of your sex, and
with some regret, confess, that the
ideas which you have often heard me
express in favor of female intellectual
powers are founded on what have
imagined more than on what have seen,
except in YOU
The letters of Mrs. Burr to her hus-
band are full of sentiment. Her hus-
bands are no less affectionate and when
he is away from her his letters are full
of longings for the time when he shall
return. To the daughter, Theodosia, he
wrote with fatherly care and tenderness
blended with most charming humor
An excellent example of the character
of letter Theodosia wrote to Aaron Burr
is found in the following, dated New
York, May, 1885,

LEISURE AND BOOKS
GO HAND IN HAND

Leisure is a blessing but idleness is a
crSse. Leisure profitably used in read
ing or thinking has resulted in some of
he worlds greatest blessings, but idle
ness nearly always leads to trouble. The
old proverb that IAN idle brain is the
devils workshop has often been demon
strated as very, very true.
But although he or she may have plenty
Of leisure time, no boy or girl is ever
going to get into trouble who has a book
from the public library to occupy the
attention. Books and leisure fit together
like steam and an engine; either one of
the combinations results in power and
energy for good.
But books in the public library are not
only for the boy and girl who have leisure
time. II means just as much to the
srown-up. The library is a school for the
grown-ups- Taken all in all, the adult
has much more leisure time on his hands
than the child and good books from the
public library mean just as mu0 and
probably more to the former than 10 the
latter.
There are books in the library for
both classes. although there might not

GOVERNMENT WILL WEIGH ARIZONA
 SNOW


 Weather Bureau Director R. B. Briggs has received twenty snow scales which will be distributed at different points in the. state. Each of them have a capacity of measuring snow to a depth of nine feet. Kenneth Meeker, of the bureau, accompanied by an employe of the reclamation ser vice, will leave within a few days for the mountains around Fort Apache to place a number of them there. They hope to be able to get there before any great amount of snow falls. They will go by auto stage to Roose- welt, where they will secure a team belonging to the reclama- tion service and thence go to Globe, to which point the scales will be shipped by rail. From there to Fort Apache it is a three days journey by team.
 Other points at which the scales will be placed are at Will jams, Grand View. in the vicini- ty of the Grand Canyon, Lowell Observatory. Payson. Pine, at the Thomas ranch southwest of Flagstaff. and one on the Graham mountains. One or two will also be placed at different points in Yavapai county.
 The object of these scales is to ascertain as nearly as possible the amount of snowfall through out the mountains of Arizona. At most of the points where they will be placed are observers who will visit them after each show storm and take observations and record them. Where it is not practical to have such observers a representative of the bureau will be sent later in the winter or early spring and take measure ments of certain areas of the pocked snow and then have it melted and the water measured or weighed. By these means it IS hoped to arrive at something approximating the amount of snowfall. Gazette.

SCHOOL NOTES OF
 SPECIAL INTEREST

The south side primary room had perfect attendance Monday afternoon and Tuesday. Fran cisco Cortez entered school Mon- day morning enrolling on the south side.
 Nina Cross, of the 1st grade, is quite sick with La Grippe. and Ruth Swindell, of the 9th, is out with an attack of tonsilitis.
 Carolina Montanio, Ursela Cortez, and Mary Romero were promoted to the 2nd grade as a result of the quarterly examina- tion.
 Thomas Ortega and Lancelot Barber returned to school Mon day after a few days absence.
 The 4th grade have finished the Brooks 4th Reader and are now reviewing, preparatory to taking up the Art Llteratures. The 3rd grade of the south pri- mary are very much interested in the study of the Eskimo child.
 School teaching is not always dull. For example, a 4th grade boy announced that John Quincy Adams was known as 'The Old Man Elephant. '' Eloquent" was a word immediately added to his vocabulary.
 The Thanksgiving holiday falls on Thursday and Friday of next week. Thanksgiving Day is the 27th and there will be no school on the Friday following.
 The second annual trip of the Demonstration Train was made this week. It presented a very interesting and instructive ex- hlbit last year. so when the state committee urged that schools make attendance a part of the years work this season, the Hol- brook school was glad to comply. Teaching agriculture is some thing of great importance and as a supplement to this work, the Demonstration Train furnishes object lessons too valuable to be neglected. The northern part of Arizona is apt to forget the great agricultural possibilities of other parts of the great state, and the in this case, takes a very pleasant form.

HOME OF PETRIFIED
 WOOD GIFT TO BRIDE

The first house to be built from the petrified wood of the famous petrified forest, Navajo county, Arizona. is to be the wedding gift presented to Mrs. Jesse E. Crosby, the bride of the young district attorney of Navajo coun- ty, who is in Los Angeles on her honeymoon.
 You see, the wood is so very beautiful that anyone could look at it all the time," said Mrs. Crosby today at the Huntington hotel. 'I am always wanting to go over and look at it, so my husband decided to please me by building our home from the wood. Of course the petrifed wood is exactly like onyx. On the other hand. it has bark over it and looks exactly like ordinary wood, except in color. The colors in the forest are the most wonder ful things in the world. They range from delicate pastel shades to the most brilliant Oriental hues. So my new home will look like a log cabin tinted with rain bows. and it will be as safe and strong as castle. Don't you think that is very fine idea?
 We had quite time getting the wood to begin building with, !" she went on, setting the gorgeous pink roses at her belt, because the forest itself is almost entlre- ly inside the reserve. and is own e l and preserved by the govern mant. but there IS enough out side tq build a house from. and 1 a real y fasc n ted by the idea !"
