CABIN BIRTHPLACE
OF c. W.FA|RbANKS
Distinguished Indianian Among
Those Who Arose From
Humble Life.
IS OF ENGLISH ANCESTRY

The distinction of birth in a log
cabin, which illustrious Americans of
an earlier day commonly had, was also
that of Charles Warren Fairbanks. 1t
is probable that he is one of the few
remaining American statesmen to have
been born in one of these humble
cabins.
The one where he was born May II,
1852. was at KNOXVILLE Center Ohio. 1t
came dangerously near being the
funeral pyre for the future statesman.
When Mr.. Fairbanks was a boy of
four his father built a new home, and
the one-room log cabin was used as
carpenter shop. One day while the
worknen were at lunch Charles wan
dered into the shop and carelessly
threw bunch of shavings into the
open fireplace. The cabin caught fire
and when the boy realized his danger
he was forced to schamble through a
window.

he left soon after o'clock.
President Wilson was up soon after
daybreak this morning and left Long

accompanied by Mrs. Wilson.
The President cast the fiftieth ballot
in his precinct. He voted in the old
fire engine house. where from the time

cause of the length of the ballot it took
Mr.. Wilson several minutes to mark it.
In addition to voting in the presiden-
tial election he marked his ballot for
the state officers.
The President was accompanied by
Mrs. Wilson. and when they arrived
they were greeted by a demonstration
staged by Princeton students and pro-

tomobile drove up the drummer beat a
tattoo.
Greeted With Princeton Yell.
Almost instantly students appeared
from every direction.
They swarmed over the CAMPUS and
rushed toward the voting place as Mr..
Wilson alighted from his automobile.
The Princeton yell went up with a re-
sounding Wilson. Wilson, Wilson," at
the end
While the President was inside vot
ing the students continued to arrive
and massed in the street outside. They
cheered almost continuously. while a
large corps of moving picture oper-
ators and photographers took IN
strategic positions. A small opening in
a window enabled some of the students
to peer inside the engine house and
they pushed and jostled for a glimpse
of the President Mrs. Wilson sat in
the automobile and laughed at the
crowd.
When the President emerged the stu
dents again cheered him and called:
Speech. Speech but the President
only shook his head and smiled. He
greeted several in the crowd by name.
The President started back for Long
Branch Immediately, leaving at $50
o'clock He planned to spend the re-
mainder of the day playing golf and
resting. He will receive the returns
by telephone from Secretary Tumulty
tonight.
