MRS. CLEVELAND'S PORTRAIT.
1t is Being Painted in Water Colors BY
Russian Artist.
From the Pittsburg Dispatc

From the PittSbtrg Dispatch.
1t is very great secret, and must not be
disclosed on any account, that Mrs. Cleve-
land is having her portrait painted in water
colors by Mrs. Miudecliff, Russian artist
of this city. Soon after the marriage at the
White House in June, a year ago, the bride
of the President sat to a photographer in
the conservatory. She gave an entire day
to it, and some thirty negatives were made
The proofs of all of them were mt to the
President by the artist, and after long and
careful study and consultation with Mrs
Folsom, the Lannon'S and other friends, the
proofs were classified. So many were to be
DESTROYED as unlike the Presidents wife
Others, in different positions, full length
three-quarters, profles, busts, etc, We're
selected for the benefit of the public and
prints from them the artist was authorized
to sell. Then there were four negatives
the best of ALL or rather those which suited
the President best, were kept for The
private use of himself and his wife. These
the artist was forbidden to print from ex-
cept at the orders of the President, and he
was not allowed to expose them to the gaze
of the common herd. A certain number of
prints were to be taken, and then the neg
alive was to be destroyed. And then, last,
and most important, was one negative
Wllc0 the GreSlQeDU nau selected Tor his own
particular, exclusive, private, confidential
and sole use. He instructed the artist to
make just three prints of it and no more,
and then bring the pictures, with the mega
tive, to him. He did not want it DESTROYED,
for fear that he would never get another so
good, but he wanted to take every possible
means to prevent it getting into general
circulation. The three prints were made,
the President gave one of them to Mrs
Folsom, a second he cut up and pasted in
the lid of his watch, for it is only a small
carte de vi tie size, ana the third stands
upon his dressing table in a little filagree
silver frame
This is the model from which he wishes
his wifes portrait painted, and he took the
photograph fl IN the frame on his dressing
table in order that it might be so used
Several sttings have been given the artist,
and the picture. which is said to be very
satisfactory to the President, is approach
ing completion. He is exceedingly par
ticular that these facts shall not get into
the newspapers, and cautioned the artist
and all concerned TO say nothing whatever
TO any one He will not allow the artist TO
take the portrait TO her studio, but compels
her to come to the White House and work
upon it, So that it has taken much longer
than need have been to do. No one has
seen it except Mrs. Lamont and Mrs. Fol
som, ana they pronounced it very good

DEADLY CAKES AND BUNS.
Users of Chrome Yellow Convicted at
Philadelphia.

Ll4ldOClplllet
PHILADELPHIA, PA, Feb. 27.-In the
Criminal Court to-day George NJ. Palmer, a
baker. was sentenced to six months impris-
onment on bill of indictment charging
him with adulterating cakes and buns made
by him, aud three months on another bill
charging involuntary manslaughter
Frederick Schmidt, another baker, was
sentenced to SIX months for adulterating his
goods, while charge of involuntary man
slaughter against him was postponed.
GROUND OF THE CASES.
These convictions are the results of the
locally celebrated Chrome Yellow" cases,
the exposure of which revealed the fact that
this deadly poison was being extensively
used by a large number of bakers and con
PETITIONERS, and that at least ten deaths had
occurred among those who had used the
richly colored buns.
Other persons are to be tried, among them
a manufacturer of Noodles" a species of
Vermicelii. much used by Germans in soup,
who used the same material as coloring
matter.
TOOK BIG RISKS.
The evidence at the trials of Palmer and
Schmidt both of whom are men of mature
years, showed that the poisonous substance
had been used for a long time through igno-
rance of It's deadly nature, but that Palmer,
even when informed of this fact, continued
to use it because, he said. his customers
wanted ''richly colored" cakes and buns.
