Washington Special, Brooklyn Eagle.
In a bleak and dusty storeroom in
Washington street, Chicago, hastily
filled up a few hours after congress
had declared war, says the Brooklyn
Eagle, sat Margaret Blair at a
switch board calling up scores and
scores of women, urging them to report
at once at the women's council

A few moments after the 44th ballot
had been taken in San Francisco
the. same young woman was again at
a telephone, this time at Trail's End,
near Dayton, Ohio, the country home
of Gov. James M. Cox, whose wife
she now is. She was calling up her
father, Thomas S. Blair, Jr., in his
Chicago home.

^i*V4V4J, ?
the Democratic standard bearer,
"they've nominted Jim."
"She was very happy and .very ex
' cited," Mr. Blair commented later,
as frankly he wiped the moisture
from his eyes. Naturally she would
be. I was also. And I wished, as I
hung up the receiver, that her mother
. were still living."
If the Democratic.choice for'president
becomes the nation's choice in
November, Mr. Cox will begin his administration
as Madison and "Grover
Cleveland began the:/, with a girlish
wife as,his chief counsellor.
Mrs. Cox, who is the only daughter
of the president of the Blair Engineering
company of Chicago is still
on the youthful sic?e ot womannooa.
Her father unblushingly announced
her age as 29.
"She s young to be a president's
wife," he said seriously.
Mr. and Mrs. Blair moved to Chicago
from Pittsburgh when Mar1

Mr. Blair is a man of wealth and the
head of a company which deals in
heating plants and furnaces. The
concern has offices in Chicago, Pittsburgh
and% New York. **
Mrs. Cox's older brother, Parker
Blair, is connected with a brokerage
firm in this city. Her younger
brother, Thomas S. Blair, f/orks in
New York city.
Mrs. Cox is the same, kind of
breezy, out of door person as her
husband. ' _ *
"She rides a good deal and rides
well," her tatner saiu, ctiiU one van
play a good game of golf. Those
are her chief spgrts, but she can keep
up with the governor in almost every
outdoor sport he engages in."
Chicago society knows all about'
the beauty and charm of Ihis distinguished
young woman who was destined
to be a belle from the days
when as a child she romped about the
garden paths of Cherry Farm and
tore along the country roads near
Elmhurst, a Chicago suburb, on her
black pony.

? In 1912 Miss Blair was presented
to Chicago, society and a year later it
was rumored that she was to marry
Carl Matz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Herman

broken, and it was four years later
that the popular Chicago belle became

race riot, and by the cooperation oi
the better class of both races there

which left a lasting impression' or
the conveiftion.
We would have been glad for manj
more of our white friends to have

Dr. J. M. Johnston of the Presbjfcerian

by having attended this convention
Many of them had never been tc

Poughkeepsie, N. Y., July 6.?The I ni
little village of Hyde Park, birth- j M
place and summer residence of th
Franklin D. Roosevelt, assistant sec- w
retary' of the navy and Democratic ei
candidate for the vice presidency, a
received quietly but with elation the g<
news that its favorite political son
! had been named as running mate to
t; Gov. James M. Cox this evening. The H
. Associated Press carried the. first ci
! news of his nomination to Mr. Roose'
velt's residence, but attempts- to C
communicate with his mother, Mrs.
! James Roosevelt, were unavailing, as ai
[ she was out for the evening. a
' i Mr. Roosevelt first sprang into po- cc
'jlitical prominence in 1910 when ne 1 u<
; was drafted by the Democrats of the [ y<
Twenty-eighth New York state sena- >
1 torial district, consisting of the?
'' counties?of Dutchess, Putnam and of
1 Columbia, in an effort to defeat Sen- sa
? ator John F. Schlosser of Beacon, p<
who was a candidate for reelection. n<
: Roosevelt was .successful, rolling up, of
> a majority of 356 in the Democratic j sa
' landslide which carried John A. Dix' ti<
j into the governor's chair. One of1
r' the stories still told of Mr. Roose- tb
? velt's first campaign by local politic- jti<
> ians is that he corralled the farmer'
i vote by running on a platform which
. advocated uniform apple barrels. >
.! Mr. Roosevelt was reelected in j '

I I^4a?, L)liL I 11^ .i^v (
. 17, 1913, to accept the appointment
. as assistant secretary of the navy, i sj
. His most famous exploit ip the state I
senate was his leadership of the in- j c.(
[ sureents who opposed the election of j ?
- ] William ?\ Sheehan to the United
State senate. tc
J i After three months deadlock te
j James A. O'Gorman was elected with D
.: Mr. Roosevelt's concurrence. d<
j j Since Mr. Roosevelt's appointment ni
i to the navy department he has spent g]
j most of his time in wasmngion, re- n<
, turning during the summer months "j
and on holiday trips to visit his h<
]; mother. He has never relinquished ci
' his deep interest in Hyde Park, how- "
a ever, and is still one of its foremost ei
", citizens and one of the leading par- h<
j ishoners of St. - James Episcopal la
! church which the Roosevelt family
, has attended for years. He is a frequent

he displays his chief sporting enthusiasm.
