How rhey Do Garry On, to BE Sur,

How They Do Carry On, to Be Sure?
When little blue-eyed, forty eight
hours-old Frances Cleveland-it is settled
that she is to be named Frances after
her pretty young mother-opened her
eyes to the world the other morning the
Madison avenue mansion where she was
born was being overrun by servants re-
ceiving and taking care of bundles and
packages which, when opened, revealed
all sorts Of offerings from the friends of
her famous father and mother. 1t
looked as if everybody who enjoyed the
acquaintance OF Mr.. and Mrs, Cleveland
had sent present for the baby, which
is as strong and healthy as its father
says it is. There were silver and
gold puff boxes, rare bits of lace, the
dantiest of silver cups, richly dressed
and appropriately inscribed rattles and
toys that baby Frances will not use for
some months to come; offers of the finest
trousseau that any human baby ever
had, and many othe varieties of orna-
mentS and toys; enough, in fact, to
keep baby Frances in good humor for
half dozen de AIDES. One of the SER
wants said that over one hundred pack
ages had been left at the house and
more were coming every hour The
offerings came from every city in the
East, and Buffalo, Albany, Philadelphia,
Boston, Washington, and New York
friends sent gifts. Some of Mr.. Cleve-
lands friends in Chicago also contributed
offerings.
Mrs. Cleveland and the wonderful
baby Were feeling SO we'll that Mr..
Cleveland decided to leaYe his home for
the first time in three days and go down
to his Broad street offices in the Mills
Building. AS it was to be his fiji st APP
pearance in public since the birth of the
baby he dressed himself with unusual
care. He wore a new fall suit of dark
mater. al and high silk hat. A hand
some silk scarf and a heavy walking stick
completed MS outfit. Mr.. Cleveland
took glimpse at the baby and then
walked over to TIL I'd avenue and Sixty
eighth street, where he boarded down
town train on the elevated railroad.
Everybody seemed to know the b 6 and
good natured ex-President. He sat down
between a schoolgirl and workingman
and was soon being gazed at by all the
folks in the car, at which he blu he y.
While her papa was attracting so
much attention down town little Miss
Cleveland was not neglected. Several
ladies called to see the proud mother,
who is said to be cOnvalescing as rapidly
as could be wished for. DR.. Bryant
paid two or three visits during the day,
and was visibly pleased at the rapid
progress which Mrs. Cleveland is max
ing Among the presents received was
a beautifully finished cradle from Mrs.
Daniel Lamont AS soon as the baby
gets big enough she will be rocked
to sleep in this real work of art
Mrs Chester Griswold is said to have
sent the baby dozen gold safety pins,
so that the infants tender skin may not
be scratched by accidentally coming into
contact with a rude Waterbury pin OF
brass. A handsome silver bath tub is
another gift to little Miss Cleveland. 1t
is beautifully chased, and is one of the
finest pieces of work ever turned out by
the Broadway silversmiths from whom
it was ordered. Mrs. Clarence Postley
is credited with being the giver of the
baby's bath tub.
Mr. Cleve and's mail has increased so
largely that he might easily imagine
himself in a Presidential campaign.
Candidate for Governor Roswell L.
Flower sent him cordial note OF con-
graduation, and many were received by
mail and telegraph from other we'll
known people in various parts OF the
country. 1t is said to be Mr.. Cleve-
lands intention, when the time comes,
TO take few weeks vacation and ac-
company his wife and the baby to the
country.
