FAMILIES OF PRESIDENTS

Some facts regarding the fam fly relations of our presidents may be of interest, as they are .raobably little known to the average reader. How many, for example, could tell off hand how many presidents nev- CT married? The answer is, only one., Buchanan.
 All the rest were married, and five of them married twice, Tyler, Fillmore, Benja- min Harrison, Roosevelt and Wilson. Seven married wid- ows, Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Jackson, Fillmore, B. Harrison and Wilson, the last three taking widows as their second wives.
 The wives of Jefferson, Jack son, Van Buren and Arthur died before their husbands be- c a m president. Cleveland went into office as bachelor, but was married during his first term.
 Washington, Madison, Jack son, Polk and Harding were childless. Tyler was the father of IA children, seven by each of his wives. w. H. Harrison was the father of 10, Hayes was the father of eight, Jeffer- son, Taylor and Roosevelt were the fathers of six each.
 Two widows of presidents remarked. Mrs. Cleveland married T. J. Preston, Jr., a professor of archaeology, in 19- 13, about five years after her husbands death. Mrs. Benja- min Harrison married James

A RAILROAD NICKNAME

How a chance remark may be perpetuated is illustrated by the nickname which has clung to the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Railroad for nearly half a century.
 Opened to traffic in 1882, the road was only moderately successful in it's early years. In 1885 the owners sought to sell it to the New York Central and named price. As the story goes, when Commodore Vanderbilt was informed of the figure named he roared: l: "I wouldn't pay that if the tracks were nickel plated"
 Later a price was agreed up- on, however, and Vanderbilt bought the New York, Chicago & St. Louis. But to this day the road is known as the Nickel Plate.

Blaine Walker, Jr., her third husband. in 1921, when she was GA years of age.
 The most unusual circum- stance connected with the mar tial relations of any president concerned Andrew Jackson. Believing that Mrs. Lewis Ro- bards had been divorced from her husband, he married her in 1791, only to discover that the decree of divorce had not yet been granted. Later the de- cree was issued and Jackson remarked Mrs. Robards in IT. 94.
