WASHINGTON WEDDINGS.
National Capital Society Determined
TO Marry OFF the President.
Special to the GloOe-

Special TO the OloDe-
WASHINGTON, April 1s.-There appears
to be growing belief in Washington that
the report of the presidents engagement
and approaching marriage in June to Miss
Frances c. Folsom Of Buffalo will be sub
stantiated. 1t is impossible to have the re-
port either authenticated or denied at the
executive mansion, though the wiseacres,
having put their heads together, affirm that
President Cleveland's conduct in the matter
differs in many essential points from the
course pursued by him ON former occasions
when rumor has allied his name with that
OF others. 1t is stated that gentleman
who visited the White house and dined with
Mr.. Cleveland day or two ago referred in
cidentally 10 the report, and that the pres
ident made no denial, merely asking in
response if the visitor did not think Miss
Folsom would make good mistress for the
White house. The reports from Buffalo and
other points of New York state seem TO
confirm the rumors Of the presidents
matrimonial intentions. Miss Folsom is an
extremely handsome girl, about 81 years Of
age. She has dark hair and eyes, a match
less complexion, coupled with q perft It
physique and lady-like manners. She is
highly educated and is a graduate of the
West college at Aurora, n. L. 1f 1t Is to
be that we are at last to have wedding
in the White house, it will be subject Of
rejoicing throughout society. Ii there is
one thing more dear than another to the
heart Of the Washington woman, it is the
excitement attendant
UPON WEDDING FESTIVITIES.
Apropos Of this subject, it may be said
that the annual announcements OF engage
ments and approaching marriages, mark
the end OF a Washington season as unvary-
ingly as the appearance OF spring poetry in
the papers, appear this year TO have been
made unusually early. The matrimonial
wave seems to have swept with greatest
violence in congressional circles, for il ru-
NOR is to be relied upon, there
will be at least half a
dozen marriages in these families. 1t is
reported that Mr.. Manning Logan is en-
gagged tn Miss Alexander Of New York
who during the season. spent some weeks,

THE ST. CLOUD EXCURSION.

A crowd of people assembled at the
union depot yesterday morning. the ma
jority OF whom evidently intended to go on
the excursion to st. Cloud and Sauk Rapids
for the purpose OF viewing the devastation
OF the recent cyclone. The train of ten
ears arrived at 9 O'clock on the Northern
Pacific road from st. Paul, ali of which were
nearly filed. Five more ears were added
and all were crowded to their utmost
capacity. The jam of people at the gates
to gain entrance 10 the train was something
tremendous. Many were unable to get
aboard, and others who had purchased
tickets turned back. 1t is estimated that
1.S0O people went from Minneapolis. The
tickets sold at So.

A Terrible Fire.

VIENNA, April 1S.-The town of Stry
has been almost completely destroyed by
fire. The number of houses burned is
about 600. Many persons were killed and
the remaining inhabitants are destitute. A
high wind was blowing and the fire started
in several parts Of the town about the
same time. One hundred persons were
killed in one street by falling walls. The
town hall, the railway station and the
telegraph Office were destroyed. A large
number of wounded were sent to Lemberg
where the hospitals are crowded with the
sufferers. Hundreds of persons are miss
ing. Lack of water rendered aid by the
military futile. Money and food are being
collected in the surrounding towns for the
relief of the sufferers.

Arrested ON suspicion.

Silas Weldon, young man of IS sum-
mers, was brought into the st. Paul central
hall at 2 o'clock this morning, as a sus-
picious character. The story Silas told was
that he was out searching for his father,
who has not been home since Friday.
Going along Seventh street he asked man
whom he knows by sight to direct him to
Rosabel street. The man, who had been
drinking, with an oath struck Silas in the
face. The officer rushed across the street
and collared Silas, who told him the same
story. The officer thought it fishy and sent
him to the station. Silas was held until
