THREE DIE IN FLAMES
Fire Caused, Police Think, by Child
with Torch.

New York, Nov "A mother and
her two young children were burned
to death and the lives of scores of
persons were endangered in a fire in a
six-story tenement building at 35S
Cherry street today
The victims were Mrs. Rose Geld,
25 years old; Anna Geld, years, and
Abraham, months The fire, the Do
lice believe, was caused by the older
child improvising a torch with a
newspaper.
A few minutes after the fremen had
taken the bodies of Mrs. Geld and her
children to the Madison Street Police
Station the woman's husband, Max, a
truckman. returned home. When he
learned that his wife and babies were
dead he collapsed.

HERoIsM AND PRESIDENCY.

Correspondent Urges Limitation to
One Term In High once.
Editor The Washington Herald: It Is
quite unfair to taunt the President with
70 lack of courage. Really he has had no
chance to be a hero. II he had not found
IL necessary to make the thought Of a
second term the paramount consideration
even when babes were struggling in the
oceans waves--if he had not thus stopped
to conquer. he could have been a hero all
the time. Blame not the President: blame
the Constitution. Make Presidents in
eligible for a second term and then Presi-
dents of the President Wilson brand will
be or can be heroes.

t'rCm 1851 to the present day, Mr..
Buckley traced the history and de-
Velopment Of this country and showed
that all eras Of national prosperity
were due to the protective tariff ana
that is the chief reason why the ola
state of Connecticut has been brought
to the front with the leading states of
the country.
During his entire talk Mr.. Bulke-
lev was Interrupted by outbursts of

Professor Blackwell in his address
referred to Charles Evans Hughes ana
the man who has never sought the po-
siton but whom the position has ever
sought He said that this falls cleo
ton will be decided less by party at
1liations than by the records OF the
parties, past and present. In TINS
connection he declared that the gov
eminent Of today is a one man aftalr
and the democratic majority in con-
gress has made the president able TO
do things quickly, but at a price the
people object to paying. Although
Professor Blackwell criticized the
president and the administration, ne
was not vicious and gave credit where
he thought credit was due. He said
that the federal reserve act was d
great piece Of Legislation ana Tor
which Woodrow Wilson should re-
| ceive due credit, but he could not
! overlook the fact that Senator Aldrich
| and the monetary committee that pre-
! sented the bill should also be recog
nized in this connection. He also
said the income tax is good and the
president should receive his share of
credit for it, but the people must not
! forget that it was President Taft that
! worked for it in past years. The
child labor law is one that meets with
universal approval and the president
should be credited with helping it
along, yet it insult not be forgotten
| that he at one time opposed 1t.
! Criticism As Well.
Other bills passed by the demo-
Gratis were not SO good Professor
Blackwell said. He took the good
! roads law and said it opened the way
| for much pork barrel Legislation. He
said this country needs a merchant
| marine, yet appropriations for the
purchase of boats is not the way to
| obtain this end. The presidents al
| legged unkept promises is one reason
why he should not be returned to Of
| flee, according to the Yale man, who
said that in no less than three ma
| tional crises he has been tried and
| found wanting. He also declared
that the president has been found in
competent in the two big issues now
| facing the country, and said that the
| state department has been forfeited to
it's political means. Professor Bake
