please tell rs what they think of the cheap the
atrical entertainments which have recently been
given in the Methodist churches of this and

entertainments Tell us what you think about
the tendency of such entertainments. and the
propriety OF holding them in churches which
have been solemnly dedicated to the worship Of

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Will president
Cleveland marry! This is question oelhg
quietly discussed in society circles mere JUST
now. Recent reports reaching here from
Buffalo, his former home and the home Oh
the young lady that is accredited with being
his matrimonial choice, indicate that per-
haps this mach talked OF event may be an
early feature of CleYeland's term. 1t would
be little odd to have wedding at the White
house and have present the only other bride
of the White house, that ever has been. The
only president that has ever committed mat
rimony while holding that office was, as Is
pretty well known, President Tyler, who
married in New York, but brought his BRIDE
direct to the White house. She was the
ssbride of the White house" Her portrait
showing her as a bride, hangs in the green
parlor of the White house, and Is polnteu

,ion when they show visitors through the

beginning of the Democratic reign. she is
