But if the news- aper men went away newsless, the farried with them from the president’s flice a very distinct impression that of the fr. Wilson was in better health than | ¢ had been at any time since he en- red the White House, and that phy- ically he was able to cope with any roblem that ordinarily might involve tax upon his strength. In ten days | president Wilson will be 60 years old. e did not look his years as he smil- higly faced forty or more newspaper | hen grouped around him in a semi- ircle. His face was thin, but his eneral appearance of vigor belied | at this was due to any lack of ealth. His shoulders were square, s chest showed great development, Ind if he had turned his back—which ¢ didn’t—the observant .correspon- ents would have received the im-| ression that here was a man in the drties. There was a striking vouthfulness bout the entire appearance of the deht. While he has gained flesh, | s figure looked trim, almost boyish. lerhaps that impression was acce ated by the excellent cut of his| othes.

In Excellent Humor, Throughout the day visitors to the ecutive offices were impressed by | e president’s good humor. One man erested in the local affairs of the strict of Columbia asked him bout the prospect of having an laugural’ ball in connection with the | Hebration of Mr. Wilson's second Jauguration as president. Mr. Wil- n answered that like the boy and e apple core, “there ain't goin’ to b none,” and a question as to e president regarded the movement grant a Saturday half holiday roughout the year to government hployes in Washington brought forth B laughing, ;mopcommittal response at he'd:like’.te have one himself. In the first year of Mr. Wilson’s Irm as president reports were eircu- ted that he was in poor health. ' Tt bs known that he suffered from briodical attacks of biliousness that buld keep him indoors for several s. He was also susceptible to 1ds, which he did not throw off for nsiderable periods. When ‘he was Pass Christian, Miss., in the Christ- as Holidays following his inaugura- reports were in circulation that was a sick man. Tater the story around that he was suffering from me serious di se and circumstan- hi details of his-alleged trouble were en by persons who said they knew about it. The answer to these re- brts is found in the continued im- ovement in the health of the presi- nt. Credit for the president’s excellent balth is given mainly to Dr. Cary T. ayson, the navy surgeon assigned to ity as the president’s physician. b Gravson prescribed the fresh air bre. He got the president into the bit of playing golf regularly and is id to have been insistent on Mr. {Ison taking this or some other form healthful exercise every day. lardly an afternoon passes that the esident is not on the links, some- mes with Dr. Grayson as his com- hnion, and frequently with Mrs. Wil- n. Todoyv was no exceptlon to the jle, in spite of the fact that the golf urse was covered with snow. Mrs. ilson played with him. FIVE 33 1-3 P. C. BONUS.

They are Edmund Schulthess ,on the left, the new pres- ident of Switzerland, and Felix Ca- londer, on the right, the new president. Mr. Schulthess has just affirmed the intention of his country to main- tain strict neutrality. “The policy of Switzerland,” Mr. Schulthess asserts, ‘“‘dictated by our traditions, our desires, even by our vital interests ,is and will remain that of loval and strict neutrality toward all the belligerents, a neutrality sus- tained by an immovable resolution to defend. our integrity and “indepen dence against all comers.

London some financial transactions in which it was alleged the Baron had been involved in Paris and convicted. The cable was sent by a verson unknown to Commissioner Howe, it was said. Even when the Immigration com- issioner placed his suite of rooms on Ellis Island at the disposal of the Baron, which had been occupied by Marie Lloyd, Prince Pignatelli, and ex-President Castro of Venezuela, the Baron did not seem reconciled to his fate. He complained of having ' to bureau. received regarding travel from the Noordam at Hoboken | to Ellis Island on the barge with the steerage passengers, and also at hav- | ing to stand in line as they passed | through the barrier at the Immigra- tion bureau.

Mrs. Archbold receives all her hus- band’s realty at Tarrytown and one- third of the residuary estate. The | remaining two-thirds goes to the | three children in equal shares. The | will was executed on March 10, 1903, in Mr. Archbold’s officc at 26 Broad- way, when his daughter Annie, now Mrs. Saunderson and living at Lynd- hurst, England, was still unmarried. Fred Mohr, Jr.. one of the witnesses, died before the testator. D. J. Da- verin, the other witness, appeared at the surrogate’s office with Martin Carey, general solicitor of the Stand- {ard Oil company, and made an affi- | davit that the paper was the last { will of the deceased. The instrument matches the will of the late E. H. Harriman for brevity. The fact that no public bequests were ! provided occasioned some surprise, talthough Mr. Archbold, who w | chairman of the board of trustees oi Syracuse unmiversity and one of closest friends of Chancellor gave heavily to that institution ing his lifetime. The will describes Mr. Archbold as a resident of New York city. The | opening clause provides for the be- quests to Mrs. Archbold. The resi- | du clauses are as follows: ‘Ali the rest, res and mainder of .my property, both real and personal, I give, devis and bequeath to my children, Mary A. Van Beuren, Annie M. Archbold, and John 1. Archbold, to he divided equally between them, share and share alike, provided, however, that if any of said children die before my decease the share of such child shall go to the next of kin of the dece- dent. 3 “I hereby appoint my wife, Annia Archboid, and my children, Mary Van Beuren, Annie M. Archbold, and John I.

Journal says: “The answer of the allied powers will say that they stand for peace; that they have always stood for peac that there is no disposition on their part to ignore any proposition hones ly put forth looking toward the con- clusion of a war disastrous to civil- ization and humanity. It will declare the firm conviction that Germany's proposals are fraudulent; that they are deliberately pdt forth to create public sentiment in favor of her cause; that they mean less than noth- ing, and that there is only one way by which the Teutonic governments come before the bar of public opin- in this matter in any honorable reply to be fort lied pro- The ion way. “The allied governments will state that even if any suggestion of a peace parley could be contemplated at this time the Allies will never consent to | g0 one inch in t divection until | Germany voluntarily withdraws from | the entire territory of Belgium, 1l by that act shows her willingness to approach somewhat nearer the level of the civilized nations with which she | seeks to treat. “The withdrawal from Belgium, in other words, will bo made a sine qua | conference, | pay with regard to the violaion of Bel- glum. Leave Belgium First. “The conferences that have been held in London during the last four days between the ambassadors of Rus- sia, France, and Italy and British cabinet officers have made it appar- ent that the demand for the imme- diate withdrawal from Belgian terri- tory must precede any agreement to approach 2 peace movement. “The Allies will recognize many’s title to hold, during any negotiations, whatever territory has secured by military methods, un- der the code of civilized warfare, in France or elsewherc, but they will de- mand, as a preliminary to any peace that Germany shall first back to the Belgian government every penny that she has collected in the forni of montnly indemnity from that country since the heginning of the war, repay also to Belgium of money to be agreed upon by repre- sentatives of neutral governments for thedestruction of her cities, the vio- lation of her soil, and the enslavement of her people, and send bac home every Belgian who has ported into Germany. ‘It is understood that the will call attention of neutral ernments to the fact that while willing to go to the limit national honor to bring about a proper and substuntial peace, and while they have no desire to crush or humiliate {he German people, they will consid- uagestion of negotiations, from sonrce it rhay come v evacuates the territ n on the memory Ger- such hex reply gov- Al- of of STUDIES.
