Mrs. GARFIELD.

The wife Of the twentieth President OF
the United States, says Washington let.
ter, is a daughter Of a Maryland farmer
Zcblon Rudoiph-whose uncle tradition
says, fought in the Revolution, and in go.
ing to France csroused the cause Of Ma.
poleon and became Marshal Of France
the gallant and unfortunate. Ney. She was
a feGow-studcnt Of young Garfield at Iii
ram College, became engaged to him, and
when he went to William College to extend
his studies, taught in the public school o!
Cleveland. She was married to him in
1890. wren nc became the head Of Hiram
College, and began life with him in cot.
tage which he purchased, fronting the col.
lege grounds. She is woman Of unusu-
al learning, and has herself nearly fitted her
two sons for college, carr, ing tn, M through,
their Latin and other studies in which wo.
men are rarely conversant. She is fond ol
reading, and in substantial literature and
the knowledge OF the affairs OF the day she
is better versed than the wife of any prcsi-
dent we have had since Mrs. Polk. She
is lady somewhat under the medium size
well made and well proportioncd, belong.
ing on the whole to the order Of little NO.
men. She has face we'll compose! of ex-
rrcssive and harmonious features, with u
fair and tri hit complexion, black hair and
eyes, her manner is a little shy yet piquant
and she has a marked and cheerful laugh, !;
sense of the humorous and her own dignity
and cheerful, happy nature. She is fon>
Of housekeeping, afeetiona,e, yet decided
in her ralcs OF household government AN,
wi.i:al. a wsll-halanecd. sensible ard inter
csting woman. She enters tie Wilt.
House with the good wishes Of the Who'll,
country, and there is no reason to doub
that she will make the Executive Mansion
HON" rs wei as palace, and inculcat,
in 1t t',e rrivat. as we'll as the public viz
tues which should :,dorn it. When askc,
ii she should keep open house as Mr..
HAYES had done, or whether she should r.
serve certain times for herself, she said >h
should Civ, herself as far us her strength

worll permit, to the public; that as ~h
belonged to them she must consider thei
wishes first and her own inclinations las,
She is quiet in her dress as was her prc.lc
cessor, and she wears literally no Jcwelry
She wears her brown hair waved Oft he

Sunday she wore Il handsome black silk
with slight train, trimmed with jet pa~se

The Great Ruby.

The first and most famous of
existing rubies forms part of the
Imperial States crown made for
Queen Victoria in 1895, cmbellishcd
with all the jcms left after the
destruction ofthc rega!ia during the
period Of the Commonwealth and
subsequently added to by purchases.
This ruby, standi g i'll the centre Of
the Maltese cross, on the top Of the
British crown. ard the most conspic-
nous gem on it, is believed to be, on
to!crahly good authority, the same
as that worn in front Of the helmet
Of King V. at the battle Of Agincourt
TT, Unlike famous diamonds, rubics
have no pr per names, but this one
in the British crown might be called
the Agincourt." Its history can be
traced back to the year 1867, when
! after the battle of Niagara, near Vic.
toria, King Pedro of CASTLE presented
it to Edward, the Black Prince
This A s;ncourt, if SO it cam be called
has Il small hole bored through it
after a fashion common in the east, te
be hung by itself around the neck
This hole is now filled in the front
part by a small ruby to be distinguish
ed only from the stone by close
examination. OF about the same size
as this ruby is another, formcrl,
among the rcgalia Of Austria, but o
the present existence of which little
if anything, is known. The Emperor
Rudolph II. received it in l36t
from the Queen Dowagcr Of France
it bcin valued ut the time at 6o,oot
.lucats, or apout 100000. 1t wouls
non, t-",.hi>' be ,v"rt', ent f,. fro"
half Il million sterling, the value o
the ruby having increased in value
more than that OF any other preciou

Married by Mistake.

Austin Moriarity went home to his
wife at Putnam, Conn, and told her
that if he was not mistaken he had on
the previous day been married to
Pheoe Brown at Providence. He had
dim recollection ofgoing with some
friend toa clergyman's house while
drunk, and becoming the bridegroom
in a marriage ceremony. His memory
proved sound, for an officer soon
arrived with warrant to arrest him,
but his wife by strategy enabled him
to escape to Canada.
