In sDite of all his load of care.
Wars worry and demurrage,
He never yielded to despair,
Nor weakened in his courage.

The stormy blast defying,
His Fame will live the Ages through

Was President's Cottage.

In letter from CHARLES T..
HAVERMILLER. Chicago. he asks
II the building at the United States
Soldiers Home here. known as the
presidents Cottage" is still being
used as a summer home for occupants
Of the White House. He says he
lived in Washington when President
Grant occupied the cottage three or
four months each year.
The Anderson building at the Home
was known as the Presidents Cot
tage," but has not been used as such
for many years. II now Is dormi-
tory. This structure originally was
the summer home of a noted family.
1t was purchased with forty or fifty
acres of ground surrounding by di-
rection of Gen. Scott as the nucleus
of a home for men of the regular
army after long service or disability.
The purchase was made in the late
: JO's from the money paid by Mexico
as indemnity in the war of 1S47. The
Anderson building was named for
Gen Robert Anderson in recognition
OF his early efforts in behalf of the
Home.
In the two terms of Gen. L. S. Grant
as President he delighted in spending
his summers in the structure on the
heights overlooking Washington from
the north, with the veteran soldiers
and in the semi-military atmosphere
of the picturesque place. Afterwards.
I am informed. President Rutherford
B. Hayes spent a few weeks there
and since then the building has not
been used as recreation place for
chief executives. The Soldiers Home
grounds now cover between 800 and
go acres of diversified lawn, slope and
ravine. The finest view of the Capt.
tai City is from the knoll on which
stands a bronze statute OF Gen. Scott

SMITH d. FRY, veteran news

THAT great tribunal at the Capitol.
He quoted statement made by
President Benjamin Harrison, who
said that when the Constitutional
organization of the Supreme Court
had been settled. the smaller. but
not wholly unimportant question of
court dress doomed up. Shall the
Justices wear gowns?s II so. shall
lit 10 the gown of the scholar. of
the Roman Senator or the priest?
This was one of the questions that
lagitated the minds of public men in
the early days. Shall they wear
the wig of the English Judges?
Jefferson and Hamilton, who
had differed so widely in their
views as to the frame of the Con-
stitution." President Harrison said.
I"were again in opposition on these
Questions relating to millinery and
hair-dressing.' Jefferson, always for
American simplicity, was against
any needless official apparel. But
| IL the gown is to carry he said,
for heavens sake discard the mon
strous wig which makes the Eng

iilton was for the English wig with
the English gown. Burr was for
the English gown. but against the
inverted woolsack, termed a wig
The English gown was taken and
the wig left, and 1 am sure that
the flowing silk gown now worn by
the Justices, helps to preserve in
the court room that dignity and
sense of solemnity which should
characterize the place of judg-

GOOD PRELIMS ON
OLIVER PROGRAM
Hagen and Kelly Should Put
Up Fast Battle. Will
Challenge Mason.

When Johnny Hagen and Spider
Kelly swap punches in the semi
windup of the all-star boxing bout
at the Oliver theater tomorrow night
local fans will have the chance Of
seeing two Of the shiftiest and best
fiyweights produced in the last de-
cade. Each is a bear. There is no
doubt about it. Fans who saw eth
er of them when they appeared here
before Will agree that the gloves
will wax hot and heavy during their
"a minute stay in the ring, provid-
the bout goes through the sched-
uled eight rounds.
Kelly comes here with an enviable
record, as does his opponent. Both
have been laying some of the tough
est boys in their class low, until
each looms up as a contender for
frankie MaSon's claim 10 the Amer
lean hyweight championship. 1t is
quite probable that the winner of
this bout Will be matched with Ma
son some time in the near future
before the local club.
Kelly Is Fast.
When Kelly fought here last he
had his opponent, Jimmy Duffy of
LOganSpOrt, In SUCH q bad way that
the referee stopped the bout half
a minute before the scheduled sin
rounds were up. Kelly is one of the
fastest and neatest hitting lads who
ever stepped around a local ring. He
has a left that shoots out like a bull
let and his right comes over with
such speed and force that many of
his opponents wake up without re-
alizing that they have ever been in
a fight
What goes for Kelly goes for Ha-
gen too. The little blond haired De-
troit lad is one Of the cleanest and
and best boys who ever displayed
his wares before a local audience.
He has a wicked punch and il is
doubtful if the little Milwaukee
wop can withstand his aggressive
attack.
Local fans who have seen each
OF these boys perform are enthusi-
astic about this bout. and from all
appearances their enthusiasm will
not be dampened after the bout be-
cause each will give the best he has
in him and IL will be a battle royal
with the best man carrying off the
the victory.
