OfCouss She Is a Pretty Baby.


New York Recorder: Little Ruth Cleve-
land is q pretty baby. She is plump,
with fair skin and pink cheeks. Her
eyes are dark blue, like Mrs. Cleveland's,
and she has quite q quantity Of light
brown hair.
She is Of a happy temperament, and
evidently likes attention, for she smiled
and shook her dimpled hands at the
ladies who bent down to worship at her
shrine.
She is dressed very simply In little
white cloak and cap, and does not wear
q veil on her trips abroad.
Propped up in the cushions Of her car
riage she looks about her philosophically
and views the scenery with judicial eye.
Mrs. Cleveland does not like coloFs for
babies, and little Ruth's wicker carriage
has umbrella and blankets Of cream
white. A little white weolly robe is
tucked carefully over It.
The nurse is a staid, serious woman Of
35 or 40, clad in black with white collar.

A Blue Rose is Impossible.

A. florist makes the assertion that q
blue rose is among the impossibilities,
but, while an explanation Of this curl
Gus fact may be equally impossible, he
fails to mention q very interesting law
which governs the coloring Of all flowers,
A knowledge Of this law would save
many flower growers hours Of unavailing
and foolish hope, The law is simply
this: The three colors, red, blue and
yellow, never all appear in the same
species Of flowers; any two may exist
never the third. Thus we have the red
and yellow roses, but no blue; red and
blue verbenas, but no yellow; yellow and
blue in the various members Of the viola
familyItas pansies, for instance)' but nc
red; red and yellow gIadioli, but no blue,
and 30 on,

WOmen's Waists.

While a nineteen or twenty inch waist
is deformity in an adult woman, it may
justly be doubted whether the twenty-six
inch waist Of the Venus de Medici is not
somewhat too large to be in proper pro-
portion with the figure Of the average
American woman. It is characteristic Of
women Of the highest types Of the Indo-
European race to have wide hips and
narrow waists. In other most races the
hips are narrow and the waists larger.
The American woman appears, in con-
sequence Of her large hip measurement,
to have a smaller waist than she actually
has. To the unskilled masculine eye

MICHAEL DAWTT SEVERELY HURT,
stoned by Pnrncilites During an Election
Frncas at Waterford

stoned by Pnrnciiites During an Election
Frnras AZ Waterford.
WATERFORD, Dec IA. Messrs. Davitt and
OBnen arrived here Sunday to support
their candidate, Mr. Keane, the nominee Of
the McCarthyites for the seat in parliament
made vacant by the death Of Richard Pow
er MIR Keane's opponent is Mr. Redmond,
member Of the Parneil wing Of the Irish
party. Omin0us rumors Of an impending
row had been exciting tho populace for
some little time and force of 600 police had
been drafted into the town ia the hope that
their presence would insure order The
Parnelhte leaders, Messrs. Redmond, Leamy
and Dalton, had been in Waterford some
days.
Especial trains brought hundreds Of sup
porters OF the rival candidates. and the vari-
ous contiugents, armed with blaclythorn
shillalahs, marched through the streets TO
the music Of brass bands Mr. Davitt and
others proceeded for the quarters OF tho
National Commercial club.
En- route thereto the disorders arose. "A
mob composed Of members OF the Paln9llte
faction began one Of the hercest conflicts
that have characterized the prevailing hos
tilities. The opposing crowds fought at very
close quarters, Nolleys Of stones were
hurled, and the blackthorns moved with a
vicious celebrity that sent many Of the howl
ing rioters 10 hospitals. During the STRAY
Mr. Davitt received nasty cut on the fore
head, from which the blood flowed freely.
Mr. Tanner and others were injured by
stones AT Last the police divided the OPP
posing mobs, and the Davitt crowd reached
the club rooms.
Mr. OBrien bitterly denounced the as
sault, and said the crowds who injured
Mr. Davitt had struck a glorious blow for
the Irish cause Davitt's answer TO that blow
was that now he was a candidate for Water
ford.
O'Bren ia his concluding words accused
the police Of using their batons more in
favor Of the attacking mob than otherwise
Mr.. Redmond, upon hearing Of the affair,
Immediately drove to Mr.. Davitts hotel,
and left a note expressive Of his regret for
what had occurred.

NoRcRoss IS THE BOMB rARowER.



Parents of His Guilt.
Boston, Dec l4-Note Broker Henry L
Norcross, Of Boston, who it Is suspected
threw the bomb at Russell Sage, left note
which has convinced his parents that he
committed the crime The note was left on
his desk at his Office II read In part as fol-
lows; Il am going to New York on bust
ness, and if l am not successful and do not
come back before given time shall not re-
turn alivep
In view Of the closely woven web Of evi-
dence which had been thickening about Nor
cross as the bomb thrower, it only needed a
letter like this TO set al doubts at rest.
Inspector Byrnes sent a telegram men
tioning the articles which were found in the
bag that the bomb thrower carried and
which Norcross' mother must have been fa-
miliar with, and when this additional proof
came she WAS entirely satisfied
The father said yesterday: 1T was my
son without doubt. have no doubt The
clothing'-and he was unable TO finish the
sentence.
Later, when he became calmer, he said :
"lf it was my son who threw that bomb it
Is wen that he was blown to pieces
There is no clew TO a motive which might
nave impelled this man to attempt the ex-
tortion. On Thursday, Dec. 8, the day be-
fore the explosion, Norcross was as sane,
apparently, as anybody.
