MIR. CleveIand's wedding OUTFIT.

Says the Washington correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Enquirer: "While Miss
frankie Folsom has been in the hands of
the Partisan modistes, the President, It
would seem, is also preparing wedding
outfit. Three or four times to-day an ex-
press wagon was at the White House, from
which were taken packages and bundles,
which to the casual eye would suggest re-
plenishing of the wardrobe. These packages
came from New York. Since the President
became temporary citizen of Washington
he has had no dealings with the local shop
keepers. A well-known tailor in New York
has his measurements, and all the President
need see is samples of the goods from which
to make selections. Mr.. Bissell, his best
man, 1t is believed, has attended to this
duty, and just now the results Of his or
ders are reaching the White House. The
President however, is not gaudy in his at
tire. He wears only black. His linen looks
white and Of the best. His collars are of
the stiff stand up style, with width enough
to show well his black cravat."

a GRAND MEMORIAL BRIDGE.

Our District Commissioners must
enlarge their views in regard to the
proposed bridge across the Potomac,
extending from Observatory Hill to
Arlington Heights. The idea of sug-
gesting bridge of light structure,
eighteen feet in width, without side.
walks, is simply ridiculous. Such
bridge should be not less than fifty feet
wide-better to be sixty-at least wide
enough for q double carriageway,
double street-car tracks and two side
walks, and should be constructed of
the most substantial material, combin-
ing stone masonry and iron, and en-
bellished in manner worthy of this
great Nation.
Such bridge, if built, will, of
course, be erected by the United States
Government, and the question of its
cost doesn't concern the District Com
missioners. They were merely asked
for suggestion as 10 the character OF
bridge which would meet their views.
Such bridge will be structure Of
national Importance, connecting the
Capital OF the Republic with the new
South, and should be memorial Of
the reunited bond of fraternity between
the Northern and Southern States. 1t
should, in its grandeur and excellence,
be unsurpassed by any similar structure
in the world.
Again The CRITIC suggests to our
Commissioners temporarily in charge
of District affairs to take broad
gauge and comprehensive view of all
matters of improvement affecting the
future welfare Of this beautiful Capital
City of the Nation. In short, don't
contine your suggestions to merely
temporary expcdients for to-day, but
keep in view the needs and necessities
of the near future as well. Remember
that Washington, as the Capital of the
country, is growing apace with the
prosperity of the entire Republic, and
that the people of the whole country
are interested in the greatness and
grandeur of their Capital, and they will
sustain their representatives, in Con-
gress in legislating in national spirit
for its future If the matters submitted
for their consideration are broad, com.
prehensive, and in the true line of
progress and development.

wOMAN's HEART.

Gods angels took little drop of dew
Fresh fallen from the heavens far OFF blue,
And white violet, SO pure and bright
Shedding its fragrance In the morn soft light,
And forget -me-not laid altogether gently
out of sight
Within the chalice OF a lily white;
With humbleness and grace they covered IL,
Madepurty and sadness near to sit,
And added pride to this and fears q few,
One wish, but half hope, and bright tears,
too
Courage and sweetness In misfortune's s smart,
And out OF this they nodded Woman's Heart.

HINTS FOR THE HOUR.

We cannot quite understand how the
present eight-hour strike, by doubling
the number Of idle men in the country
and reducing in more than that pro-
portion the chances of work for year
TO come, is going to be OF much benefit
to the laboring classes.
No country, no community, can long
be prosperous with the wheels of its
industry blocked and the march of i'm
provement stopped; and the effect of
such an unwholesome condition of af-
fairs is always sure to be felt by those
least able TO bear it-men who have
nothing laid by for rainy day, and
women and children who have nothing
to depend on for any day but stipend
barely sufficient to keep soul and body
together.
Were 1t not the wiser plan for those
to work who can get work on fair and
honorable terms, and for the labor
organizations TO devote the money
which they are now distributing among
the unemployed strikers to the assist
ance Of those for whom no work is to
be had?
Why not compromise on nine hours
Why fool with sentimental idea?
Do the workingmen of Washington,
even under the ten-hour system, aver
age more than nine hours work day
the year round?
And while we have the subject in
hand 1t might be well to inquire what
has become of the spirit of arbitration !?
Is 1t necessary to wait on the slow
motions of Congress in order to bring
about voluntary arbitration of diff
ferences between Labor and Capital?
Why do not the representatives of
these great interests meet each other
half way and abandon their present
suicidal policy?
