CHICAGO, Nov. ia household
arrangement whereby q mother and
her son lived happily for five years
with her divorced husband and his
second wife provided q strange chap
ter for the records of the Circuit Court
today.
A disagreement over domestic
finances wrecked the idyllic triangle
in suburban Oak Park. A subsequent
rift over custody Of the youth led
to the revelation Of the unusual ar
rangement in a court hearing yes
terday.
The principals were Earl P. Cady,
his first wife. Anna; their 12-year-
old son, Willis, and Cady's second
wife, Eileen. Cady was divorced in
1880 and he married Eileen in 1881.
When he found himself unable to pay
81 weekly alimony to Anna he in
vited her and their son to share his
home.
The arrangement was approved by
the second Mrs. Cady, explained At
torney Irving Abrams, counsel for
wife No. /. The latter did the house
work while Cady and his second
spouse took Jobs to meet household
expenses. The mother and her son
occupied separate quarters in the
home.
Last January Mrs. Anna Cady left
the home and went to live with her
former husbands mother. Later she
filed petition to obtain custody of
her son, move opposed by Cady
and his second wife The latter, ex-
planned Cadys attorney, had grown

The life, character and work of

Loyalty interested Associated Press man
can reach. The Associated Press was
his life. In over quarter of a CEN
tury'S career with the Associated Press

places for the organization than did
ever any other human being. These
friendships remain an asset for the
Associated Press men that he leaves

be forgotten but the memory of his
character will inspire us to try to
emulate his life"

Is "it" again. The admiral did such
a splendid job four years ago that
the President drafted him again,
despite his many duties in other
quarters, public and private. In doing
this the President assured himself Of
an inaugural head who knew all the
ropes" and the various places en-
route along the Avenue Of red tape
in official Washington where red tape
could either be cut or dispensed with.
This has insured to Washington this
year an excellent inaugural celebra-
ton, though not SO large as some in
the past.
COME things that appeared on the
~ streets of Washington four years
ago will be dispensed with this inaugu-
ration. The floats and various patri-
otic organizations, party and otherwise
in character, are out of the picture.
While no reason has been given for
this order officially, 1t is not far to
seek. In the first place, the time
allotted for working up these various
units is very, very short. If there are
200 fewer floats and marching organi-
zations on the Avenue Inauguration
day, there will be 200 fewer organi-
cations to make way for In the parade.
In the second place, there is no
precedent to 60 by as to the weather

ulace to the Capital of the Nation,
making merry and shouting itself
hoarse with acclamation, while the

palace from which he will reign, by
the grace of God, over all the people.
The only difference in this corona
ton will be that the liking" is the
President of the United States, and
that instead of ruling he will ad-
minister the affairs Of the country
as the head of a great political
party and from a dwelling long con-

Of the Capital was strained by an ef-

making the most of the occasion.

icler Of the day thus described the
journey up the river:
"The weather was remarkably fine
and the water was extraordinarily
smooth, although there was q breeze.
AS the f1otilla neared Bedloes Island
a large sloop sailed close to the barge
and moved parallel with it, while
about 20 ladies and gentlemen sang
an original ode Of praise to Wash
ington, the words being set to the tune
of God Save the King Washington
was very much affected by this touch
ing display of popular regard. Just
as the singers finished their ode a
school of porpoises appeared in the

the reason why there was SO much
commotion and rejoicing.

in a bag. On his shoes were silver
buckles and at his side was sword.
On the occasion Of his second in
auguration George Washington was
much more richly attired. The cere-
monies, by contrast, were far simpler
than those Of his first inauguration
had been. When he took the oath of
Office for the second time he was
conveyed to independence Hall, at
Sixth and Chestnut streets, in Phila-
delphia, in a coach drawn by six
white horses, preceded by two gentle
men with white wands, who opened
q way for the coach to the entrance

to these momentous occasions in the
past. They have way of turning out
to be important, after all.
Through Fredericksburg, Baltimore,
Wilmington, Chester, Philadelphia and
on to New York George Washington's
procession was one triumphal march,
marked by special receptions and
escorts to State lines, who were the
most distinguished citizens Of the
communities through which he passed.
Triumphal arches spanned the streets
Of Philadelphia, and under these,
bare-headed, rode the first President
on a magnificent white horse. Under
one Of these arches, near Gray's Ferry,
Washington was requested to stop,
and when he did so Miss Angelica
Peale came forward and placed a
laurel wreath upon his head. When
he entered Trenton, his pathway was
strewn with flowers by six charming
young ladies, richly dressed, who sang
a song especially written for the occa-

noon the House of Representatives
was filled to overflowipg, and it was
estimated that the number OF persons
unable to gain admittance to the Cap
itol exceeded 10000.
Mr.. Madison was then living in the
house at 1918 H street northwest,
which is now occupied by the Cosmos
Club, and he left it under an escort
of volunteer Cavalry. arriving at the
Capitol at II O'Clock. The suit he
wore had been presented to him By
Col. Humphreys and Chancellor Liv-
ingston, and it was noteworthy in that
it was made of a cloth Of American
manufacture, woven of the wool OF
merinos raised in this country.
In the evening of March there was
a grand inaugural ball at Longs Hotel,
and contemporary reporter described
it as "the most brilliant, and by far
the largest ever known in Washing
ton, at which the late President Jer-
ferson and President Madison and
foreign ministers were present"
On March 4, 1917, chronicler thus
described the temporary residence of
President James Monroe, which was
the scene of an inaugural reception:
"The Executive Mansion was the house
at the corner Of New York avenue and
Eighteenth street, known as the Octa-
gon; the White House, having been
destroyed by the British troops, August
IS, 1914, had not yet been rebuilt.
Visitors in Washington may have no
difficulty in identifying the Octagon
House, not alone by its peculiar shape,
but by the desolation and ghoStliness
that its cobwebbed corners, broken
window panes and loosened bricks be-
tray to the passer. 1t has been the
scene of a murder and suicide, say
the people of the neighborhood, WHO
believe it to be haunted. Here Presi.
dent Monroe and his lady held grand
public reception. The evening con-
cluded with a spelndid ball at Davis
Hotel, now the Metropolitan, at which
we're present the President and ex-
President and their ladies, and the
usual official satellites. 1t was esti-
mated that 5000 people were present
at the inaugural ceremony"
THE sixth President Of the United
= States-John Quincy Adams
took his oath Of Office in the old hall
of the House sof Representatives, now
"Statuary Hail." in the Capitol. Mr..
Adams was at this time living at 1888
F street northwest, in a house that
stood opposite the Ebbitt House. It
was here that President Monroe called
upon the President-elect and rode with
him in his carriage to the Capitol, ac-
ccmpanied by a military escort. Mr..
Adams was dressed in suit of plain
black cloth Of American wool and Of
American manufacture"
After the administration Of the oath
of office, President Adams received the
congratulations of his colleagues.
