The assumption that close appllca-

Gated by DIR. Ethrldge Green that the

The obstruction may be produced by
severe muscular effort, such as lifting
heavy weights. when feeling of ten

Houses OF Presidents.

In connection with the efforts 10 re-
store the birthplace of Theodore Roose-
welt. at 2S East Twentieth street, New
York. II is recalled that an attempt
was made several years ago TO acquire
the old house In which President
James Monroe died. The project never
got beyond the placing in 1905 Of a
memorial tablet on the house.
The old house. one of the archaic
structures In the city. and much the
worse through years of neglect. Is on
the northwest corner OF Lafayette and
Prince streets. For years the lower
portion was used ms junk shop. IL
still presents the characteristics of the
well-to-do residence during the early
part Of the last century-three stories
high. with dormer windows protruding
from the attic. The house was built
by Samuel l.. Gouverneur. who mar
ried one OF Monroe's daughters.
