resulted in nothing. Grace. like Wesleys $
previous fiancees. was married to another
suitor. Finally there was Mary Nazeille,
widow who had previously been a
domestic. She had four children but
she was seven years younger than Wes-
ley. My brother told me he was re-
solved to marry and I was thunder

"Trusty Ned Perronet followed and told
me the person was Mrs. Nazcille. one OF

very happily is perhaps not to be won

CROWDS OF VISITORS
EXPECTED ON March )
Wave of Patriotism Will Bring People,
Col. Harper Believes.

Railroad men stated yesterday that
they are preparing to handle the largest
number of visitors that have ever come
here to a Presidential inauguration, be-
cause of "the blazing patriotism Of the
hour"
Evidences are daily multiplying that
there will be an unusually large influx
of people at this time, when the country
Is facing great eventualities.
Col. Robert n. Harper, chairman of the
Inaugural Committee, is in daily receipt
of communications from all sections in
dicating that the people will respond
with spontaneity to the call of patriot
ism and come to Washington as a per-
sonal assurance to the President that the
nation is with him heart and hand in
whatever steps may become necessa ry
in the International situation.
Gen. Funston. in command of the forces
on the Mexican border, was sent a mes
sage yesterday by Col. Harper urging
him to endeavOr to effect the return
home OF the District, Maryland and Nir-
ginia Guardsmen in time for their par
ticipation in the inaugural parade.
Today Secretary of War Baker will
again be appealed to by Chairman Har-
per to suggest to the commander of the
Southern division to include the District
Guardsmen and those of nearby States
among the first movement OF troops
North.
Governors of States and mayors of
important cities are announcing their in
tention of attending the national exer-
cises and the accompanying informal
patriotic demonstration. Chairman Har-
per has added to his list the names Of
Gov. Cox, of Ohio; Gov. R. Livingston
Beeckman, of Rhode Island, and Gov
Charles r. Miller. of Delaware. Many of
the governors will be accompanied by
their staffs as we'll as by civic and mill
tary organizations.
Mayors of big cities also are signifying
their intention of coming to the Capital
at this crucial time in the history of the
republic.

ZEPPELIN SOUVENIRS

Under the impressive title of Zeppelin
mementoes there has been a fairly brisk
trade in blobs of half-melted aluminium
wire and other hardware in England
Those officially sold on behalf of wa,
charities are doubtless genuine relics nj
recent raids, and will long remain as
heirlooms in the families of their happy
owners. But a city schoolmaster tell,
me OF letter received from an old boy
now in khaki, who did guard duty near
one of the Zeppelin wrecks. He and hi.
brothers-in-arms were besieged by eager
relic-hunters. and sent many of them
away happy. One in particular was ex.
tremely pleased with a Swiss milk tin

A Real American

Marx Twain was a steamboat pilot. He
was a seaIcher for gold in the far west. He
was printer. He worked bitterly hard.
All this without a glimmer Of the great
destiny that lay before him.
Then, with the opening Of the great wide
West, his genius bloomed.
His fame spread through the nation. IL
few to the ends OF the earth, until his work
| was translated INTO strange tongues. From
then on, the path Of fame lay straight to
the high places. At the height Of his
fame he lost all his money. He was heav-
lily in debt, but though 90 years old, he
started afresh and paid every cent. 1t was
the last heroic touch that drew him close
| to the hearts Of his countrymen.
The world has asked is there an Ameri-
can literaturel Mark Twain is the answer.
He is the heart the spirit Of America. From
his poor and struggling boyhood to his sIoh-
Gus. splendid old age. he remained as simple.
as democratic as the plalnest Of our fore
fathers.
He was. Of all Americans the most Ameri.
can. Free in soul. and dreaming Of high
thinEs-brave in the face OF trouble-and
always ready to laugh. That was Marx
Twain.
