.HARDINGSPENDS
B||RTHDAYQUIE.TLY.
Not Even Birthday Party TO
Be Given Owing to illness
of Mrs. Harding.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Presi-
dent Harding today celebrated the
ftty.tourth year OF his birth al
most as quietly and as simple as
the average citizen observes a
birthday.
There were no indications at
the White House OF anything
more than just an ordinary day
in the life Of the chief executive.
The Presidents plans called for
the usual forenoon round Of con-
ferences, the customary noon day
period devoted to meeting visitors
In the capitol from the towns and
hamlets Of America, who consider
the moment when they grasp the
Presidents hand and hear his
word Of greeting the climax OF
their visit: luncheon, andA then
perhaps few hours of golf over
the course OF a nearby Country
Club. Because Mrs. Harding still
is confined to her bed, although
recovering from her recent ILL
ness, there will not even be u
birthday dinner party, but the
president will spend the evening
with her.
! The fact that today was his
birthday, however. was not for
gotten by the close friends of the
executive. or by the nation and
the world at large. All day long
the beginning really was yes
terday-telegraph wires at the
White House licked and messen-
ger boys arrived carrying mes
sages Of birthday greetings, many
Of them from rulers and leaders
Of other countries.
! Close acquaintance of Mr..
Harding remarked today on the
recent Improvement In his physls
cal condition. Just two years ago
Mr.. Harding was elected to the
presidency.

Co.. shot and killed his wife and him.
self last night was still lacking to-
day. A Gordon of police was main
tanned about the Powell mansion
through the night.
Mrs. Powell before her second mar
riage several years ago, was the
widow of r. II. White, founder of the
department store business at Boston
which bears his name. Her home orig
inally was in Georgia, from which she
came as Lena Hubbard a quarter CEN
fury ago.
The POwells had been in their sum.
mer home only a day. having aban-
doned their winter apartment in Bos-
ton a few days after Mrs. PowelPs
return from a trip to the Bahamas
for her health. Servants were said
to have heard a slight quarrel yes
terday, and in the early evening saw
Powell chasing his wife around the
house. Shots were heard, the serv-
ants rushed to the library and found
their mistress dying on the floor and
her husband leaving the room. An
automatic pistol found in the library
proved to have damned, and Powell
apparently went to his own room up
stairs to get another weapon. He
killed himself with a revolver. found
near his body. The district attor-
ney announced that the medical ex-
aminer had indicated informally to
him that Powell had gone insane.
