A WASHINGTON newspaper says "the Pres

il so much opposed to all class and race dis
examinations as to single out among the
callers at the White House, for his especial

white wife, why Mrs. Cleveland should hold
herself so aloof from the other women OF

strange to many, if not to all, people.

as we'll as business matters. His partner
was bachelor, and was in the habit OF
reading him letters of an ardent and af-

signed herself Susie The hero of the
story went away on an extended trip and
returned just in time to attend the we'd

his good will he sent the happy couple a
wedding present, and at the wedding re-
ception, stepped gallantly forward to pay
his respects.

1t is pretty hard world, anyway, for

more looks we'll with side whiskers and a
peaked chin than he would to stuff his
chest and not his cheeks and calves. To
