TEDDY R00SEvELT-A GREAT AMERICAN

Roosevelt and his successor as Presi-
 dent, William Howard Taft, led to the formers announcement of his opposi- tion to Taft's renomination. The ex- Presidents influence had been large in placing Mir. Taft in the White House. Now his influence was equal iy strong in preventing Mir. Taft from remaining there. Men who had clash ed with the Taft policies quickly ral- lied to Roosevelt's support.

 Colonel Roosevelts career has left such a vivid impression upon the people of his time that it is necessary to touch but briefly upon some of the more striking phrases of his varied, interesting and strenuous" life to re- call to the public mind full details of his many exploits and experiences.
 Called to the White House in 1901 after President Mckinley had been assassinated. Col. Roosevelt, 42 years of age. became the youngest president the United States ever had. Three years later he was elected as Presi- dent by the largest popular vote a President has received.
 Thus Roosevelt. sometimes called q man of destiny served for seven years as the nations chief magistrate. In q subsequent decade the fortunes of politics did not favor him. for. again q candidate for President--this time leading the Progressive Party which he himself had organized when he differed radically with some of the policies of the Republican Party In 1912-he went down to defeat togeth- CT with the Republican candidate. William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson. Democrat, was elected.
 Col Roosevelt's enemies agreed with his friends that his life. his char acter, and writings represented a high type of Americanism.
 Of Dutch ancestry. born in New York City on October p. 1858. in a house in East Twentieth Street. the baby Theodore was a weakling. He was one of four children who came to Theodore and Martha Rulloch Roose- velt The mother was of Southern stock and the father of Northern. a situation which during the early years of Theodore.

Bridal Transport
Plattsburg Is Here
With AZ Ronances
u. S. Filler Creets Bride He
Wooed in Siberia and
Who Saved His Life in
Army Hospital in France

The transport Plattsburg, which soon
after the signing of the armistice began
to unload brides of American soldiers
and sailors on these shores, came to
port yesterday with forty-seven women
who had married Americans in England
and France.
There was bit of romance attending
each of the marriages, but none had
the vicissitudes that fell to the lot
of Mrs. George Logan, jr., of Aberdeen,
Scotland, whose husband halls from
Pittsburgh. When the European con-
f1ict started, in 1914, Mrs. Logan left
Scotland for Siberia as Red Cross
nurse. About the same time the man
who is now her husband went to France
as an ambulance driver. He was shift
ed to Siberia, and there the couple met
About the time the Logans began to
take an interest in each other he was
sent back to France and she was made a
prisoner by the Bulgars. Meanwhile
he returned to America and joined the
aviation corps. She was liberated and
sent by the British into Mesopotamia.
Duty called them both back to France.
After winning a captaincy in the air
force Logan was stricken with menin-
gifts at Tours. Fate directed the fu-
ture Mrs. Logan to the hospital where
he lay She was assigned to nurse him.
Physicians said he could not live, but
his nurse saw that he pulled through.
When he was restored to health they
were married at Biarritz. Logan re-
turned to this country several weeks
ago. He met his wife at the pier yes
tcrday.
The Plattsburg brought from Brest
1899 officers and men in command of
Lieut.. Colonel S. r. Hopkins. The
principal unit was the 332d Field Ar
tillery. Among the officers on board
was Major Newell Garfield, a grand
son Of President Cnrf;eld

last Tuesday.
AT s;3o yesterday morning the car
in which Commissioner Enrieht had
been driving across Manhattan Bridge
on the left hand side of the road

away and disappeared in haze of dust
and gasoline fumes.
Wrong Side of Road
The machine in which a Tribune re-
porter had managed to follow Mr..
Enrlght from his homo was held up
by traffic patrolman, who discoursed
on the offence of driving on the wrong
side of the road while the commits
sloner's machine roared away toward
the New York end of the bridge.
Up to the moment when pursued and
pursuer started Mr.. Enright had
broken Mayor Hylans record for speed
over the bridge by four miles an hour.
When Mr.. Enright at 9:O3 entered
the big Packard machine which stood
at his door, Sd Prospect Place, Brooklyn.
it jumped away down Eastern Parkway
at twenty two miles ar hour. This
speed increased in the down grade to
Underhill Avenue, where the car
swung down to St. Johns Place. The
speedometer on the pursuing car, which
had been tested by an expert, showed
a speed varying from twenty to thirty
miles an hour as the race continued
through Plaza Street and into Flat
bush Avenue.
Flatbush Avenue was crowded with
traffic, but the big car of the commits
sioner ducked in and out through it
at thirty-two miles an hour.
At Seventh and Flatbush Avenues, a
trolley car had stopped "for the pur-
pose of receiving or discharging pas
sengers." All motor traffic behind it

At the entrance to Manhattan Bridge
the Commissioners and the pursuing
machine were so close together that
the policeman who saluted the former
did not have time to stop the latter
before it had flashed past.
There is sign at the end Of the
bridge which says something about
10 Miles Per Hour" but the pace the
Police Commissioner set was so hot
that it was impossible to read it.
Westbound traffic was heavy on
Manhattan Bridge, but Commissioner
