ANCIENT WHITE HOUSE GOSSIP

George Washington, the first
president was sworn in in Wall
Street on the steps of the sub
treasury building
John Adams, the second president
saw more persons weeping at his
inauguration than he had ever seen
at any funeral and said of it:
Whether is was because of the
loss of a beloved president or the
accession of an unpopular one
cannot say"
\ prize of $500 was offered in
Washington's administration for
the best design for house to
serve as a home for the president
in Washington. James Hoban, an
lrishman from South Carolina, was
the successful competitor His
sketch contained 50 many wings and
colonnades that the public was hOr-
rificd and frilIs and gingerbread
decorations were eliminated. The
result was the two-stOry White
House as we know it now. Wash
ington laid the cornerstone of the
building in 1872. It was completed
in l199 the year of Washington's
death.
John Adams was the first prcsi-
dent to occupy the White House
and it was said of Abagai Adams
his wife, that she hung up the fam
lily wash in the east room.
Theoretically, the president of tn,
United States cannot be arrested OF
rrstSained by any public Official
but Ulysses ; Grant, while presi-
dent, was help up and arrested by
a negro policeman for fast driv-
ing. He put up a bond of $50 anC
fortified it next day in police court
The president may go beyond The
borders of the country if he chooses
but seldom. if ever, does SO. A gooC
deal of talk was causes in Grover
ClcNclands administration by TN,
report that he had gone beyond TN,
thrce-milc limit ON the Atlantic
while fishing Exchange.

The men went on the mat at 1910

pretticst bout ever seen in Clayton.
Collins worked under II decided hand
leap, having only arrived in this al
titude "a hours before going on the
mat. and was also suffering from a
severe cold. He is confident of his
ability to master Falls and issued a
hallenge for a return match, which
will probably be staged New Years
day.

REPUBLICANS PLAN WITH
OUT COLONEL ROOSEVELT
Leaders Feel That Roosevelt Must
Be Retired For DiSruntipJ
Party, And, That HughCS
Is Politically Dead

Washington, Dec. 5.-The Repub-
licans, who are beginning to ex-
hibit signs of recovery from the jolt
they received on November Z, when
an apparent victory was turned in
to an actual defeat, have begun to
speculate as to the future of their
party.
While Republican congressional
leaders have reasons for the defeat
of their presidential candidate, they
accord the major part of the credit
or discredit for it to Colonel Roos-
cvet Their grievance is he sowed
i'm 1912 the seeds of the whirl-wind
that they rcaped four years later
by teaching the voters Of the West
to think away from the Republican
party.
Another cause for their growing
animosity toward the colonel is that
he jockeyed Mr.. Hughes into the at
litudc of being in favor of war,
whereas everybody knows that the
defeated Republican candidate is as
mild a man as ever sat on the bench
or ran for Office.
1t is apparent from the attitude
of these men that the leaders in the
national Republican organization are
just as antagonisiic toward Colon
el Rooscvclt-now as when they flat
tered out his delegates in 1912 and
shut the door to him at Chicago five
months ago.
Some of the culonelS friends made
no secret of their belief during the
campaign that the defeat of Mr.
Hughes would open the way for an
actual reunion of the Republican
and Progressive forces. They eX-
pcctrd there would be a widespread
demand for the colonel to take com
mand of affairs of the Republican
party with a view to whipping then
/ into shape four years hence.
I From the present indications there
is little prospect of such an occur
renee coming to pass. The Repub-
lican machine still is controlled by
/ the men who headed off T. h. il
/ two occasions, instead of rellectinl
any desire TO have him undertake the
work of party reconstruction, they
have singled him out as the goat
Hence it is not improbable that Tn,
first actual move made in the direc.
tiOn if reOrganizing the party vii
be- characterized by a determined
effort to eliminate him entirely.
