London to Have Ons Similar to Those
in New York and Paris.
London Letter 10 the Philadelphia Telegraph.
There's talk of starting in London Thir-
teen Club similar TO those so well known in
New York and Paris. There are numbers
of superstitions in our old country which it
would be quite charity TO LAY and the
objection 10 dining thirteen. or to perform
any act of Importance on a Friday, often
causes much inconvenience. Besides pledg-
ing themselves TO meet four times a year
always on Fri lay, when thirteen shall dine
at each table, where the knives shall be
crossed and salt split by each diner, the
IN mbers will have TO undertake to break at
least one looking glass each, TO cut their
nails on Sunday or Friday, to walk under
ladders, aud in every way TO break down
superstitions. Disbelievers will wish them
good luck but have heard it said by those
with whom such little superstitious ideas are
ever present, that one death of member
during the first year will have more effect
in furthering sucl beliefs than the go d
fortunes of all who will help in discrediting
them.

A WHITE HOUSE ROMANCE.
The Story of Mrs. Cleveland's Diamond
hing.

The Story or Mrs. CleVeland'S Diamond
hing.
Washington Special to Baltimore american.
Mrs. Clevelands engagement ring is not,
as is generally suppose ed, the beautiful dia-
mond which she wears just above her we'd
ding ring, but is a large, old-fashioned seal
ring which now adorns the Presidents fin
ger. There is quite little history attached
to this ring and the way it came to be be-
slowed upon Mrs. Cleveland. A few DAYS
before the departure of Mrs. Folsom and
her daughter for Europe, it will be remem-
bered, the President went on to New York
for the purpose of seeing and bidding
them good-by. 1t was upon this
occasion that the President first
definitely asked Mrs Cleveland to become
his wife, and fixed the date of their mar
riage Immediately upon her return to this
country. Taxing from his finger the seal
RUG which he had worn for years, and
which had been originally gift from Mr..
Folsom, the President placed it on her fin
ger, intending, almost Immediately there
after, TO forward her the handsomest dia-
mo whica could be found. This plan
Mrs. Cleveland herself ultimately changed,
as she decided it would be less likely to at
tract attention if during her stay abroad
she wore the old seal ring which had be-
longed to her dead father. Ga the day of
her marriage. as is we'll known, Mrs Cleve-
land received a magnificent ring and neck
lace of solitaires from the President, da-
mond pins for the hair and breast from Sec
rotary and Mrs. Whitney, in addition to nu-
merous other small gifts of a similar nature
from others But, curiously enough, the
lrst diamond ring which Mrs. Cleveland
ever possessed was a tiny little star of dia-
monds, which she wore upon the little finger
of the right hand on the occasion of her
marriage. This ring was the gift of friend
in New York, who had known Mrs. Cleve-
mention the fact that she had never owned
diamond, sent the little glittering star
from Tiffany's the day before her departure
from Washington when she came on to be-
married. This friend was among the num-

The members of the Board have, and
