EARLY CHARACTER
 OF ROOSEVELT
 SEEN IN LETTERS

New York. Oct. 27-Three letters in the handwriting of Theodore Roosevelt. presented recently to the Roosevelt Memorial Association, throw interesting light on the early character of the future President, whose birthday Is being celebrated today throughout the country
 The great American's modesty as a young man, vergfng nearly on tt- midity. is disclosed in a note accept ing the offer of trusteeship of the New York Infant Asylum. The let ter was written to Dr. Henry D. NicoI1, then head of the asylum, in 1881, the year when Roosevelt, then 23 years old. took his seat in the State assembly.
 His absolute inexperience," Roose- welt wrote, would prevent his being of much use." but. with determina- tion also evidenced in another letter to Dr. Nicoll he promised to "try my best.''
 Ten months later, in 1882, he wrote Dr. Nicoll again, expressing pleasure in accepting the position as trustee, but adding:
 ''I only fear that I will by no means come up to your expectations. But I shall do my best.''
 RooseveltS early love for outdoor life, a characteristic which had much to do with the molding of his later life, and his admiration for pictur- esque characters in frontier history, come to- the front in the third letter, written in 1890 to Richard Watson Glider, editor of Century Magazine. script and was written from Wash ington. where Roosevelt was holding his first federal office, that of Civil Service Commissioner

Three Damage
 Suits Filed

 In the same court Hattie E. Doug las, this city, asks of Frank Paladenn, New York city, damages of $7O0, claimed to have been done to her Oakland automobile, when in a coll lision on the Post Road between Nor walk and Westport on October 2, last. The plaintiff denies any contri- butory negligence, and claims the srie- fendant's car was operated in a care less, reckless and negligent manner
 Josephine Dodge, Westport, in Common Pleas court, asks possession and damages of $50 from Minnie E. Hill, Danbury, to cover a. Red Cross Victory range, valued at $10O, and claimed to have been wrongfully in the possession of the defendant since September first.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-10-27
THEE BRIDGEPORT TIMES

In it he appealed to MT. Glider to have a biography or sketch of Kit Carson's life written and pointed out that Carson and his comrades were men of real mark" and their work "of utmost consequence and should not be allowed to be forgotten"-the same appeal now being sent out broadcast by the Roosevelt Memorial Association for contributions to per petuate the memory of Theodore Roosevelt.
 He suggested that MT. Glider ob- tain an article on civil service re- form from Cabot Lodge" who, he said, was "a man of note, and a ris- ing one in his party"
 At that time Senator Lodge was representative in Congress. At Roose- velt's suggestion the articles were written by MT. Lodge in the maga- zine during that and the following year.
 In 1890, Roosevelt was a prolific writer of stories of hunting and of wild animal life and he concluded his letter in the spirit of the literary freelance, keen to sell his stories.
 ''I will buckle down to the three hunting articles for bear. moose, pan ther, etc, and I will bring in the Turk story, he wrote, and added the suggestion, My bear scrape would, l think, make a good picture, if you thought 1t worth while. also the death moose"
 The two Nicol1 letters were present. ed to the Roosevelt Memorial Associa- ton by Mrs. Henry D. Nico11 and the Glider letter by the publishers of Cen tury Magazine.

Miller Hears
 Peculiar Case

A peculiar case has come up be- fore Judge Miller of the Probate Court which does not involve diff- culty of deciding who is to get an estate but which does create a techni- cal difficulty in regard to the title. On November 25, 1918, Vincenzo Pansa and his wife were both dis covered dead from gas poisoning, leaving behind them three children. The case is to establish the title to that property which the children are to receive.
 The case is similar to the famous Fair will case which occurred in France some time ago when a hus- band and wife died in an automobile accident and it had to be established which had died first. The court final ly judged that the wife was probably as not strong as the man and there fore said that she had been the first to die.
