that when put to the test he was the
first Of the presidents to have been
born under the American flag, rather
than under the British, and he and
Roosevelt are the only presidents not
wholly descended from Inhabitants Of
the United Kingdom.
Sprung from. Dutch families on both
sides, Van Buren, married into Dutch

language Of his ancestors. He was

MARTIN VAN BUREN,

THE most notable event Of Van
i Buren's administration was the
occurrence of one of the great panics
from which In the nineteenth century
the country regularly collapsed every Is
or 20 years, as In 1919. 1887. 1857.
1873 and In 1893. Those periodic
prostrations always followed wild de-
bauches In speculation. but since 1t Is
convenient and consoling to blame
some one else for our own sins. the
president invariably has been made
the scapegoat In each period Of hard
times.
No doubt JacksOn's removal OF the
public deposits from the United
States bank caused financial disturb
ance and his distribution of the fed
eral surplus among the state treasur-
les also was disturbing. The govern
ment, the banks and the people gen
orally had all merrily Joined In SOW
Ing the wind, whose harvest was the
whirlwind Of 1887.
The nation had been INDUCING In
the first Of its big western booms. The
river steamboat aided to open up new
regions, where mushroom states, In
ambitious emulation of New York and
Its Erie canal. ran wild In appr0pria-
lions for the building of canals. Van

Makes One for Her Grandson That Contains 5,760 Pieces of
 Patches.

Medford, Wis.-Mrs. Jackson Moon of Perkinstown has just completed a quilt consisting of 5.760 pieces for her grandson, William Woods of Wausau.
 The pieces were collected from friends and neighbOrs. Work on the quilt began last April. Two weeks of continuous sewing made Mrs. Moons fingers so sore that she was com- pelled to abandon the work for time, resting her fingers by spinning for neighbor.
 Mrs. Moon, although seventy years old, does her own housework, enter tains much company. helps with the milking. churns three times week, markets her butter, and no sick rela tive or friend can find better nurse than she.
 In the past twelve years this indus trious lady has pieced 13 quilts each made up of thousands of pieces, all sewed by hand, for Mrs. Moon does not like to sew on machine.

Dublin, Jan. 10.--Military forces nave frustrated a plan for Sein Fein attacks on the heart of Dublin.
 A headquarters report says body of Sein Feiners cut through the barbed wire barricade along treteh of road leading into the city, planning to ambush troops.

 A tank was thrown into action at Dillons Crossing, County Cork, bat tered down the stone wall which con- cealed ambushers two weeks ago.
