No child until now has ever been born to a president in the white house. Presidents and wives of presidents have died there and there a child of a president has been given in marriage, but from Washington's day until now there has never been a child born to a president in the white house or while in the presidential office. Presidents generally enter office at an age when their children, if they have any, are erown. Four of our presidents have been widower-Jeleron, Jaekson, Van Buren and Arthur. Two have been bachelors-Buebhaan and Cleve land, for Cleveland has been president both as a bachelorandbeoedact.

Two presidents have brought brides to the white house as its mistresses-Tyler and Cleveland. Three presidents have been borne from the ports of the executive mansion to their graves-the elder Harrison, Taylor and Lincoln. One-Abraham Lincoln-had a child, little Tad-die in the white house. The daughter of General Grant was married there, and he wife of President Harrison died there. But no president ever had a child born to im in the white house, or while in office until now.

There have been several children born in the white house. There were the three children of Mrs. Donelson, the wife of the private cretary of General Jackson, and little Julia, the granddaughter of General Ocean. Naney-Hanka 3-4. IhDIANAPoLIs, Sept.
