Mr. Wilson Is the sixth president "f tho United States to marry a Widow. Washington, Jetferson. Madison, Fill more and Benjamin Harrison were hia predecessors in this sort of a union, but in not more than one or two caaes was the widow the second wife—as in this ease. John Tyler and Theodore Roosevelt married twice, but their second wives had not been wedded be fore. It is scarcely necessary to recall George Washington's marriage.

Perhaps Dolly Madison, wife of President James Madison, Is best known generally to Americans of all generations neat to Martha Washing ton. John Tyler's Romanes. John Tyler was twice married, the second time while he was president. His Hrst wife was Letltla Christian, who belonged to one of the old fami nes of Virginia. Mrs. Tyler bore the president nine children. Just before her husband was elected vice presi dent of the United States she suffered _* stroke ofparalysls and a short time aRer he" succeeded William Henry Harrison as president she died—In the White Honse. The second winter after her death the president met Julia, the daughter of a Mr. Gardiner, who lived on one of the Islands In Long Island sound. The president fell desperately In love —he wooed as a youth of twenty would woo, impetuously and roman tically it wasn't a great while before they were engaged and a short time later they were married quietly at the Church of the Ascension In New York city. Grover Cle veland did not marry un til fairly late In life. Then he fell In love with Prances Folsom, the daugh ter of his law partner. She was a girl whom he had known from early childhood—there was a time when she called him "Uncle Clpve." Mr. Cleveland and Miss Folsom were wedded In the famous Blue room at the White House. For a long time It was thought that President Wilson and Mrs. Galt would be married In the White House. Pee P* Just supposed that Mrs. Galt would wa.t to go down In history as an actual White House bride. From the general feminine point of view 11 seemed really the only thing to do.

The note renews the demands of the United States and says thh det&a which Austria referred in its repiy to t^ie ftrat note are In ne way essenttai {h the discussion ft emphasizes the. continuance of godd reiations depends .upon the action of the Austrian gov ernment. x. '' *' TA# teat of the-hots whLh Ambas sador PenHeM was instructed to de iiver to the Anatro-Mhn#arina minis tar of foreign affairs reads as fob Depdrtment of State, % Washington. The, government of the United States has received the note of Your Excellency rotative to the sinking of tj^-Ancona. which was deltvae& at nHHh on December 15, 1915, and mSmaitted to Washington, and has given the note immediate and careful consideration. On November 15, 1915, Baron Zwie denek, the Charge d'Offatra of the imperial and Royai Government at Washington, transmitted to the Depart ment of State a report of the Austro Hungarian admiralty with regard to the sinking of the steamship Ancona, in which it was admitted that the ves sel was torpedoed after her engines had been stopped and when passengers were still on board. This admission alone is, ka the view of the govern ment of*tgm DnTted States, sufficient to Hi uponjhe commander of the sub marine whtth Bred the torpedo the responsibility for having wilfully vio lated the recognized law of nations and entirely disregarded those hu mane principles which every belliger ent should observe in the conduct of war at sea. In view of these admitted circumstances the government of the* United States feels justiBed in hold ing that the details of the sinking of thes^dncona, the weight and character of the additional testimony corrobor ating the admiralty's report, and the number of Americans killed or injured are in no way essential matters of dis cussion. The culpability of the com mander is in any case established, and the undisputed fact is that citizens of the United States were killed, injured, or put in jeopardy by his lawless act. The rules of international law and the principles of humanity which were thusVwilfully violated by the com mander of the submarine have been so long k^d so universally recognized and are so,? manifest from the standpoint of right and justice that the govern ment of the tJnited States does not feel oailed upon to debate thehm and does not understand that the Imperial and -Royal government questions or disputes them. The government of the United Suites therefore Qnds no other course open to it but to hoid the Imperil! and Royal government reaponaibie for the act of Ita navai commander and to fenew the definite but reapectfui da manda made in its communication of the sixth of December, 1915. It sin cerely hopes that the foregoing state ment Bf its position wiii eoabie the Imperia! and Royai government to per ceive the justice of those demands and to comply with them in the same spirit of frankness and with the same concern for the good rotations now existing between the United States and Austria Hungary which prompted the government of the United States to make them. LANSING. MdvetMer Foreign Trade.

Austria Must Pay indemnity, Punish Commander and Disavow Act. Washington.—The new American note to AasMa-Hsagary regarding the sinking of the Italian steamship An cona has been cabled to Ambassador Penfieid for presentation to the Vienna foreign office. Secretary Lansing and other officials of the state department declined to divulge any information concerning the communication. From other re liable sources, however, came a strong intimation that the Cna! draft of the note had been completed bn Secretary Lansing during the day and had been put in code and started on its way over the cables. A veii of secrecy has surrounded the communication ever since a White Rouse messenger carried a prelimi nary draft from President Wilson to Secretary Lansing. However, it is known that the secretary spent con siderable time at work developing the ideas the president had outlined. As completed the note is believed to have been considerably more lengthy than the drat. Handle Much Perm Product.

And John Milon followed with a severe ar raignment of the British war leader ship, inquring: "What is the use of sending out more troops to be ied like men re sponsible for the Suvla Bay and Anzac failures ?" -* VAST 8UPPUE8 FOR GERMANY. Turkey Hoids Abundance of Fond and Suppiies. Berlin—"Turkey has an abundance of foods and other material* of aH kinds which dhe can suppiy to Ger many if Germany needs them," said Dr. Nazim Bey, secretary of the Young Turk's Committee, in a state ment to the Associated Press on hie arrival in Berlin. "It is only a ques tion of transportation, which seems to be in a fair way of solution. "There is no iack of anything in Turkey. For example, we have 30, 000,000 kilograms of cotton which Germany can have the moment she solves the transportation problem, not to speak of 10,000,000 kilograms of reserve supply in the shape of ma tresses and other articles in Turkish homes. , "The same is true of copper. Of this we have at least 40,000,000 kilo grams which Germany can have at any time." - 734 British Ships 8unk Berlin—"It is stated on competent authority," says the Overseas News Agency, "that since the beginning of the war to the end of November last, 734 enemy ships with a tonnage of 1,447, 628 tons were destroyed.

Greensboro.—One of the three oc casions especiaiiy demoted to music in this ehy each year has just passed. The State Nornmi Coiiege's annuai ^eseutation of Handel's "Messiah", occurred. Two perf ^mances were necessary on account of the limited auditorium pf the eoHeao. At 7:30 in the evening \jhe 760 women of the coi !ege student body of the high sehooi at the coBege and that of the Greens boro CoRege for Women composed the ft attended. The streets of the city trading toward the coiiege in the west printed an appearance which suggested A gene*; hegira. The doors of the auditorium onehed at 3 o'clock and a crowd had already col lected. The fear of exclusion by lack of space was fe!t and many were turned away. The oratorio was sung by the chorus of 166 with 110 women of the student body and 50 men of the city composing it. The so!oi8ts were Mias Kathym M. Sev erson of the faculty. a remarkable soprano; Mrs. Wade R. Brown, a con tralto of exceptional power; Mr. Over ton Moyle of New York, bass, and Mr. Judson House of New York, tenor. Music lovers were particularly in terested in the tenor, inasmuch as he was the single unknown soloist to the city. The singing of Mr. Hoyle was known, inasmuch as this was his second appearance here in the orato rio and had sung Mephisto in the re recent presentation of "Faust" at the college. He had lost none of his power and Mr. House found a wel come. These two singers are the only paid persons in the performance The appreciation^ was well divided between the singing of the women soloists and the men; while the cho. - proved itself a surprise, inasmuch as practice had improved its capacity noticeably. "The Messiah" is the an nual Christmas music of the college and in the several presentations, so familiar has the chorus become with the lines that it is almost in position to discard all cues. One of the hopes of the future of the State Normal is for a magnificent music building with an auditorium in keeping with the significance of its productions such as that of today. The building has already been projected into the minds of Greensboro people and of other friends of the college through the state and there is hope of a movement soon to put the struc ture on the campus. Should this even tuate, an even more imposing program than now in vogue would be instituted in the effort at the popularization of good music in North Carolina. The performance proceeded the beginning of the holiday vacation at the coi One Kitted, Two Hurt.
