Another Cheerful Romance.
Albany JOurRoi.

The gossips have not within two weeks
past announced the engagement Of any
young lady to Mr.. Cleveland. In the alb.
sence Of these announcements comes ro-
mantle story with local coloring. 1t is
said that lady, once the object of Mr..
Cleveland's love, has been living in this city
within stones throw Of the Executive
Mansion. AS the story goes, in years gone
by this lady, then resident Of Buffalo, was
engaged to be married to Grover Cleveland
Her father objected to the union because he
did not consider Mr.. Cleveland fit match
for his daughter. The engagement was
consequent broken of. Masters shaped
themselves so that the lady finally became
a teacher in an Albany educational institg-
ton, she at present holding the position Of
principal of its academic department and
teacher of bellies lettres Her parents would
now probably be happy to have the Presi-
dent of the United States for son.in-law.

A Texas Hotel.
From a Late .ibiIe1Is Letter.


Then there is the genius who keeps a
hotel-a squatty, bow-legged, red-headed,
bull.necked terror Of the Llano, who never
washes his face. combs his hair or changes
his shirt, and has no use for man who
does. Let me describe this semi-aI-fresco
"hostelrie," with all its appurtenances. A
large story-and-a-hslf shanty that would dis.
grace Kerry Patch, which contains the of,
ice, wash-room, sitting-room, parlor and
nursery, all in one magnificent room, fully
twelve by twelve feet with a cell
ing against which a six-footer is in
danger of receiving a cracked skull if he
rises suddenly. Here, in the most fraternal
manner, are congregated around a diminu
tive stove, landlord, landlady equipped
with baby, snuff bottle and snuff stick,
half dozen various sized, dirty, unkempt,
unlocked cubs (they run to boys principally
progeny of the landlord and landlady,
some half q dozen cowboys in leather
breeches and spurs, redolent with the in
toxicating aroma of cows, filth and West
Texas whisky-which latter is by far the
loudest and most offensive. Several regu.
lar boarders, and a torlorn travelling man
or two complete the circle, all anxiously
awaiting the signal to enter the banqueting
hall.
