CLEVELAND'S HOME OFFERED FOR SALE SYRACUSE, N. Y., Aug. 6—The boyhood home of the late President Grover Cleveland, in Rayetteville, a gray rain and wind-torn house which has weathered 100 years, is on sale today for the first time since the day it was built. It was the slender-looking house, with small second-story windows, looking like half-closed eyes through the trees, that the boy who was to be twice president came to live when just a tot. Grover Cleveland's father, the Rev. Richard F. Cleveland, was pastor of Fayetteville from 1841 until 1850. During the nine years that Fayetteville knew him and the Cleveland children, Grover became a student of Miss Eliza Cole in the little red schoolhouse across the way. The Presbyterian church was on the corner of Main-st and Academy-st, and the gray old house which is now for sale was the parsonage. When the Rev. Cleveland left Fayetteville the house in which the Cleveland family had made its home passed into the hands of William P. Thompson and has remained a possession of the Thompson family to this day. CHICAGO BARK TO SAIL SOUTH SEAS CHICAGO, Aug. 6—"Big Bill" the William Hale Thompson South Sea Expedition ship is working her way down the Mississippi river and is leaving this large country of the United States for clinics where the fish wrap their fins around tree trunks and climb to dizzy heights. Whether this destination will ever be reached and whether "Big Bill" passengers return to America with motion pictures of the funny aggregation out-doing the monkeys, is yet to be determined. The expedition is being organized under the financial direction of Mr. Thompson, former Mayor of Chicago and national political figure. "Big Bill" a specially built vessel, with a fifty horsepower kerosene burning marine engine, has successfully weathered the trip so far, and it is believed the boat will be able to buck the waves with as much success as it was able "to climb over the humps in the Illinois Canal," the path it used to reach the Mississippi from Chicago. The boat started from Chicago July 4 and will cover approximately 28.00 miles before returning to her native port. Try a Classified Ad for results. ALPHA-BE A. B. C.
