Woodrow Wilson's Eulogy.
Account of the Inauguration
in New York 126 Years Ago
Of Washington as President

Washington, on this the anniversary
of the birth of him whose name she
bears, can well afford retrospect,
through vista of presidential in
augurations with which her name is
associated, to the day when George
Washington was inaugurated as the
first President of the newborn United
States of America.
That was in New York city, nearly
1875 years ago-to be exact, April 80,
17Se-and, unlike the average inaugura-
ton day familiar to Washingtonians
of the present day, with it's bleak winds
and drifting snow, the day was cloud
less and balmy.
Through the courtesy of Miss Louisa
Rittenhouse, The Star is enabled to
republish the following account of the
memorable ceremony:
New York was now ready for the
incident that overshadowed all others
of the tme-the arrival of George
Washington. 1t took the messenger of
Congress, Charles Thomson, esq, just

ond day after that Washington began
a journey every step of which is mem
able. From the moment when he
left the gates of Mount Vernon until,
seven days afterward. he was met at
Elizabethtown. in New Jersey, by the
deputation from Congress. it was one
continuous triumphal march, with
which history has nothing to offer in

There was woman, scarcely more

and she was heavy drinker, as also
was the father Of the boy. l think
she had been drinking before she
came to court; he admitted he had.
Time and again she has had him
arrested and her mother once had
her arrested when she broke win
dow in a drunken frenzy. Yet under
meath the very apparent deteriora-
ton of her better nature, there strug-
gled through her bitterness the cry
of woman for the man she has mar
ried and to whom she has born a
child.

why don't you let him alone? If
you just let him be he'd live with me
and we'd get along, but you take him
away from me"

JUDGE SABBATH OF COURT OF DOMESTIC
RELATIONS TELLS WHY MARRIAGES FAIL


in trying to build up a new home on
the ruins of the old, and asked him
why it was so many marriages are
unhappy.
First of all, they do not under
stand each other" he said, very Sc
riously. "Then there are interior
ences. among the relations on both
sides; sometimes drink on both
sides. There are conditions where no
home has been established. where
they are living in a furnished room
that is not a home, where the wife
has no chance to prepare meals and
take care of her husband in home
surroundings"
What do you think is the rem
edy?" asked him.
well, first of all before they get
married they ought to understand
each other; they should not get mar
ried on an acquaintance of short
period" he answered. 'They should
know each other a long while, so that
they know each others ways to see
if they are properly mated.
when they understand each other
it is their duty to leave the home of
their parents and start for them
selves even if it is only in one room.
The moment there is responsibility
on the shoulders of the wife and of
the husband it seems to me they get
along better. The wife looks for
ward with pleasure to keeping the
home inviting for her husband and
the husband looks forward to the
pleasure of going home. =
when they live with the parents
there is bound to be jealousy and
often in such trifing things. The
husband gets better food maybe than
the father and trouble starts.

GERMANS Confident
war ALREADY IS Won
Terms on Which She will Consen,
to End Hastiides" Being
Considered.

So confident is the German government
that the war practically has been won
for Germany that the terms upon which
Germany will consent to end hostilities
are now being given consideration.
This is the astonishing fact received
from German authority.
However. little credence may be given
to this Information by the reading Amer
lean public, 1t can be said that those
Germans in this country in the best posi-
ton to get advices from Germany are
quietly spreading this report. and as a
result there Is more elation among the
adherents Of the German cause in this
country than there has been at any time
since the German drive toward Paris was
checked.
The advices which are inspiring such
confidence of ultimate German success
are to the effect that Germany is now
certain she can hold Belgium and the
territory controlled by her in France
indefinitely.
What Germany intends to demand. 1t
was said, Is an outlet to the open sea by
way of Calais. She would be willing
to part with her colonial possessions in
the Pacific and some minor colonies in
Africa.
This Information Is to be taken mere
ly as rejecting the information now in
circulation in important German circles
here, but 1t IL not entirely without sup
port.

generally recognized as bosses" but
the colonel was only sure that Ward
could be called such.
Ward Is undoubtedly the boss Of
West Chester County" he said, land a
very good friend of mine'
Crane, he said, was no doubt a boss In
the Massachusetts sense. but that was a
different affair from the New York
sense. OF du Pont and Vorys he was not
so sure.
Getting down to the Chicago conven-
ton, Mr.. Roosevelt said that he had not
dictated the nomination although he had
