out of the White House door. She was
watching for the carriage at the window
of the reception room When it came
up the carriage way she bolted out of
the front door and was in the coach in as
little time as it takes to tell it. She wore a
tailor-made suit that was near the color of
her hair, and turned up the collar of her
jacket as she found the air was damp and
cold. Sinclair, the footman, jumped upon
the box with Hawkins, and the carriage
rolled out between the pillars as rapidly as
it came, and turned dowc Pennsylvania
avenue. As he pulled up before the depot
the driver looked at his watch and finding
he had five minutes to spare, turned up and
down the street, while Miss Cleveland, who
had come out at dawn to meet her brothers
sweetheart, put her head out of the window
and told Hawkins not to go too far away.
HEa SECOND ERRAND.
She had been to the same depot in that
same carriage shortly before midnight to re-
ceive her sisters and other friends and was
again illustrating the devotion and determ-
ination that are her strongest characters
tics 1t is said that she preferred to go to the
station at that hour of the morning alone
There was no reason in the minds of other
people why she should, but she had motive
of her own, and people think she knows this
way of emphasizing her affection for her
brothers bride and her dlsavowal Of the
feelings that have been attributed to her
concerning this marriage Her quick ear
discerned the sound of an approaching train,
and she called TO Albert, who turned
the horses down Sixth street as if he
were driving away from the station. But the
plan had been prearranged and was under
stood by those in the car as well as the lady
in the carriage. The car, which was at the
rear of the trim, was detached before the
engine entered the depot and shunted upou
a spur that runs outside along the street,
and which is usually occupied by postal
cars The White House carriage pulled up
alongside the car where it stopped, and two
uniformed porters appeared promptly with
their arms full of bundles and travelling
bags Ben Folsom was the next 20 alight,
and he, too, carried q heavy deck load of
parcels which looked very much as If they
had come to hand after the trunks had been
packed He tossed them to Miss Cleveland,
wto remained in the carriage, and then
turned TO assist Mrs Folsom and the bride to
alight
bow TIE BRIDE WAS DRESSED
The latter wore black silk so covered
with jet that it shimmered like an armor,
and her natty waist was covered with a
jacket Of gray cashmere Her hat was a
white chip with black bows and ravens
wing standing up coquettishly She had
three or four little parcels In her hands-and
a scarlet umbrella Her greeting TO 4Miss
Rose as she addressed the presidents sis
ter, was quite gay, and neither by her APP
pearance nor her manner did she show the
effects Of nights travel and an early
awakening Mrs Folsom and her daughter
climbed the carriage while Uncle Ben
acted as supercargo In stowiry away the
freight inside and outside the coach. There
was good deal of merriment when he
climbed into the carriage, which was already
pretty well crowded. and he gave the por-
ters silver dollar, while Miss Folsom gave
them smile as the carriage drove away.
1t was not brides morning. A fog hung
over the city SO densely as to conceal the
capital dome. and moisture was oozing from
the pianks along the station The air was
murky and heavy, and the few people who
were about at that hour took no notice OF
the presidents carriage il they recognized
