Little Heroes.

Charlton Enterprise.
A couple of little heroes were
quickly made at late picnic of a
Morrisonia church held at fremont,
on the banks of the BRONX river.
Two girls-Marv Cockrell, twelve
years old, and Lizzie Overocker aged
ten-fell into the water and after
struggling for dear life, sank. The
picnickers were terrur-stricken, and
two mounted policemen sat in their
saddles on the bank Of the stream and
did not know what to do as they
could not swim Suddenly there
was CRY, "Look at the boys" sure
enough, two little fellows, Frank and
William Hodina, aged twelve and
fourteen years respectively, ran to the
brink, pulled of their coats and shoes,
buried their hats and sprang into the
water. They swan to the spot where
the girls had disappeared and then
sank out of sight. Frank the small
er boy got hold of Mary Cockren the
larger girl, and brought her up. In
the struggle he lost his grip, and she
caught him by the feet, dragging him
down. However, he soon reappeared
with the girl on his back, and brought
her ashore and she was soon restored.
The other boy brought his girl ashore
too and gave her to her parents, and
the crowd cheered itself hoarse. The
boys were brothers, and didn't seem
to think they had done much; but
they were almost killed with patting
and kissing and all sorts of cherishing.
All the parties are too young to
think of marrying, but if they live
they will come of age. When the
party returned to town, the boys found

Cleveland's Love Story.

Governor Cleveland has had many
love affairs, but not so much as a
bachelor of his weight, politically and
socially, woul be expected to have
His love affairs have been of the pla-
tonic kind, and it is said by his friends
that he has been incapable of falling
deeply enough in love to propose tG
anv girl since he became a lawyer In
1859. When he was just able to sup
port himself he became enamOred of
pretty and beautiful young woman
who was relative Of the late Judge
Verplanck. The girl was not dis
posed to look favorably on his suit,
and this made him love her the more.
She was quite a fiirt and delighted to
tantalize him by permitting other
young men TO escort her home from
Eagle Street theater, which Was then
the only place of amusement of any
account in the city. The girl was
co nparativeIy wealthy aud looked
Down on Grover, who was young
lawyer After awhile she got to
thinking f,ndly Of him, and it is said
that they were engaged to be married
when she was taken i'll with a fever
and died.
Cleveland did not recover from the
shock for several months, and though
he has a bachelors liking for pretty
ladies, his friends say that he will
never marry. One lady became so
Infatuated with him that she proposed
to him. He rejected her advances,
and it ia said that she became crazy
and is now confined in an asylum.
Governor Cleveland has always
been of a retiring disposition, and
most of his time has been spent in
his law library or in the company of
his bachelor friends.
His most frequent places of resort
were the city club and the heightened
Buffalo club, on Delaware avenue.
There he was accustomed, years ago,
to spend most of his evenings playing
cards and telling or listening to stOr-
les told by coterie composed Of the
late Hon. Harmon S. Cutting, the
late John Allen, vice-president of the
Central and Hudson railroad an other
unmarried gentlemen.
A friend to the governor told the
Journal correspondent to-day
romantic story of how a lady living
near Poughkeepsie engaged in CORES
pondence with the governor since be
was elected mayor, and that a tender
feeling had sprung up between them.
They have met but four times, once
when Cleveland was sheriff, a few
years later at Saratoga, after Cleve-
land was elected mayor, and once
since he has been governor. This
friend said it was quite likely that the
lady would not be married by Cleve-
land, if elected president, and that
she would grace the white house
parlors at his receptions. The lady is
described as being a charming bru-
nette, about 81 years old, with pleas
ing manners and considerable
property. Inquiry among other
friends verified the story, but no one
would tell the lady's name or just
where she lived. except that it was in
a small town. near POughkeepsie. -

irrespective of the politico issues
between different sections of the country
on the tariff question. The letter becomes
Mr.. Blaine's platform. 1t admits of no
doubt as to his positions. He treats public
subjects with candor, clearness and vigor.
The letter will greatly aid in his election.
It is the letter of a man with convictions
and the courage to express them. 1t handles
public questions with fairness and medera-
ton without any lack ofpositiveness- There
are epigrammatic expressions OF truths
by the score in the letter that will be mot
toes of the campaign, and that are CHS
elled words of wisdom. In short, it is a
letter that will be a strong appeal to the
intelligence of the voters. If such as dis
agree with Mr.. Blaine and the Republican
party will read the letter, they will find
there is no deception practiced to catch
votes but that he has spoken without
any circumlocution, and to the point on
every topic taken up, and has treated those
who differ from him with manly and cour-
teous consideration. They will find, also,
that in a few trenchant sentences Mr..
Blaine has disposed of all the talk about
his doctrines being those likely to entangle
this country in foreign wars, or to put it
upon the road Of forcible Intervention with
the affairs of other peoples.

The distinctive features of this car are as
follows: 1t is divided into compartments
opening into a corridor running along one
side of the car. These compartments offer
all of the privacy of ones own room a,
home, and room enough to dress in conve-
niently. The beds are placed across the
car instead Of lengthwise, and are so easily
and nicely disposed of in the daytime that
each boudoir is comfortable and even luxu-
rious for day travel. A very perfect system
of ventilation has been adopted, thus avoid
ing one of the strongest objections TO COM
partment cars. The cars are "a feet long,
and rest upon trucks of special pattern,
each having six 42-inch paper wheels
They are strong and yet comparatively
light. By the arrangement of the berths,
the chief weight is near the floor, thus
bringing the center of gravity much lower
than in the ordinary sleeping car. The ar
rangemcnt of the dressing rooms, with
their lavatories and water-closets, and all
the minor details of the car are such as to
strike one pleasantly at first sight. The
compartments are some of them arranged
for two and some for four persons. Each
compartment is provided with electric-bell
communication for calling the porter
Each car has its smoking-room, its buffet,
and library Of 100 volumes, besides the
current monthly and illustrated weekly

THE LETTER.

The letter of acceptance by Mr.. Blaine
WAS given in full in these columns on Sat
,lrday Its best commentary is itself, since
to read it is to thoroughly understand it.
We have no desire, nor do we see the need
now of entering upon an analysis of it. 1t
is much preferable that the voters shall
take the letter in its entirety, and not by
reeapitulation of its points. While we do
not care to discuss the question of protection
as advanced by AIR. Blaine, since the views
OF this paper on that subject are well
known, yet we are free to admit that he has
presented his personal platform on the
tariff question in manner that viii satisfy
che most ardent prctectionist. But we arc
for Mr.. Blaine and the Republican party
