Alexander Lambert, of New York.
whom the president summoned yester-
day to attend to his son. was the first
to greet the chief executive and to tell
him the pleasant news.
The up csident remained in the intir m«

appeared Mrs. Roosevelt accompanied
him to the Gardiner house. where
breakfast was served, it was scarcely
an hour before Mrs. Roosevelt return-
ed to her watch over her son. The boy
was restless the greater part of the
night. and his cries of "mother" and
“water" could plainly be heard outside
of the building.
Moving lights and hurrying forms
were seen in the sick room. The dc-
lirious cries continued for half an hour
and then gradually subsided. and the
lad fell Into a sound sleep. From this
he awoke this morning. shutting the
