BABY M'kEE's FIRST PLAY.
He and Little Mary Lodge Go with
Grandpa to See shenandoah"


Grandpa to See Shenandoah"
There was much childish prattie in
room Ill Of the Fifth Avenue Hotel
last night. This Is the sitting-room OF
the suit occupied by ex-President Har-
rison. his daughter, Mrs Mckee, and his
daughters children, Baby Mckee and
tlny MISS Mary Lodge Mckee. The
children saw the big parade yesterday
ana went to theatre for the first
time In their lives, so they had great
deal to talk about, of course. Gen. Har-
rison felt pleased to see them so de-
lighted. He sat in one corner of the
room pretending to read his paper, but
really looking over its top and listening
TO every word. Mrs. Mckee sat quietly
In the other corner with hands folded,
and was softly smiling. In the third
, corner Mary Lodge Mckee, a wee black
haired and black-eyed girl in n fiery-red
u vefSs, sat IN semi-dignity In big blue
arm, and her eyes and ears wide open
while Baby Mckee had the floor. He is
now seven years old and wears kncker-
| bockers.
1t Is strange that a man who Is SO
frigid in all other ways has such warm
| fondness for children. Gen. Harrison
Souiu ne happy forever IN Babyland
He could pass his life in II nursery and
have that life filled with delight right
along. Yet wnen he gives you his hand
you feel that you are grasping bunch
| or icicles and in his presence you try
to think whether the moths have gott en-
| into your Winter coat and wonder where
| you hung up your ear-muffs In the early
days OF last Spring. The General has
aged very much since the campaign of
| 1855 He Is very white in hair and beard
| and wears the placid look of man who
would like 10 sit on his front stoop and
let the years glide by as glibly as they
may.
II took the children to the theatre
to-day" said the General to THE Even
seen play before. We went to 'Shen-
andoah, at the Academy of Music, and
the children enjoyed it very. much. IT
is great play. We all enjoyed it,
ance, other than to say that we all
liked 1t and that 1t is very good"
Gen. Harrison took his place in the
matinee line at the Academy and bought
his tickets. Nobody recognized him. He
plauding after the sheridan's ride scene
and when the tumult of that tableau
was over and the enthusiasm 1t aroused
had passed, man pointed him out and
called for three cheers for Harrison,
which were given.
! The forty horses and the great crowds
| of soldiers in the battle scenes of

filed him with excitement. So did the
| galloplng horses dragging the cannon.
| He told Mary Lodge Mckee the whole
and rode his grandpa's cane around
the room to show her how .Sher-
| idan saved the day" when he galloped
from Winchester, twenty miles away"

THE pEARmAN MYSTERY.
= Story Of Mistaken Identity Involving
the Dead and the Living.

II have heard of u great many cases
OF mistaken IDENTIFY" said an Ulster
county IN. W lawyer but never OF
>one quite as remarkable as that of John
Dearman Of Old Hurley, i'll my county.
Ten Years ago John Dcarman married
katherine Crispell, Il we'll to do farmers
daughter. Soon afterward he took to
drink and i'll time abused his wife
shamefully. Five years ago she deter
mined to have him arrested for i'll treat
ing her, but he disappeared before she
carried out her intention.
Mrs. Dcnrman heard nothing of her
husband after he Went away, but Il year
or SO later she read in newspaper an
account of the discovery of the body of
a man i'll the Hudson river, near New
burg. The description of the drowned
man was SO much like that of her miss
ing husband that shewent to Ncwburg
to see if the body was his. 1t had been
buried when she got there. She showed
held the post mortem and To others who
had seen the body Il photograph of her
husband, and every one at once pro-
nounccd it that of the dead man.
"NIrs. Dearman had the body disin-
TERED i'll order that she might herself
see the face and make sure that it was
her husband. She recognized the body
at once, and the further fact that the
dead man had two front teeth missing
just as her husband had, made the iden-
titication the more positive. She re-
moved the body to her home and had it
reinterrcd.
"a year or so ago Mrs. Dearman
married John Branthorer and removed
with him to Albany, where they now
live, prosperous and happy. One day last
week, to the amazement of everybody
who had known him, John Dearnan,
long supposed dead and buried, returned
to Old Hurley. There could be 10 mis-
take as to his identity. Too many cir
cumstances proved that he was the true
John Dearman. The story Of his sup.
posed drowning WAS told to him, and
the grave where it was believed he had
been lying these four years was shown
to him. He also learned that his wife
had remarked and had moved away,
and he said:
" TITS all right. l deserve it.
"Then he walked away and hasn't
been seen since. But who was tine man
who was drowned identified and buried

THE LONDON CRUSADE.
The Public Moro Interested In 1t Than In
Any All Other Subjects.

London en- m;isse is vastly more in
torested i'll the matter of domestic NOR
nls than in the ominous events Which
threaten to make a deep impression on
European history The "Prudes Oh the
Prowl" crusade has developed into a
burning issue of deeper concern than
any Palkhurst or Lexow committee do
ings in New York. Slow going, every
day London has apparently made up it's
mind that the restrictions which it has
been attempted to impose upon places Of
amusement are al attack on public lib
critics which it is necessary to resent to
no matter what extremity. 1t is difficult
to give an idea of the intensity of the
popular feeling displayed on both sides
of the question. The Daily Telegraph,
the most widely circulated newspaper
in London, prints page of letters daily
on the subject and announces that this
is only Il tenth of the correspondence
sent i'll. None of the newspapers has been
able to ignore the question, and some of
the literature Oh the subject in the pub
lie prints is simply amazing 1t is un-
equa,ed i'll quantity and in the senti
ments expressed by Mr. Stead S Maid
Ell Tribute. which made q world
wide sensation ten years ago.
The question is beginning to be clear
ly defined. 1t is not "Shall the social
evil be suppressed?" Even the most ex-
treme purist agitators do not undertake
that herculcan task The issue really is.
'Shall the social evil obtain even tacit
official recognition i'll London?" All of
the purists say no. All London, if one
may judge by the newspapers, says yes.
1t is universally admitted that vice
tlaunts itself more boldly, more often
sively, in the streets of London than
anywhere else Oh earth. Those who are
opposing the renewal of the licenses of
those music halls which are frequented
by the demimonde make no attack upon
this public evil because it is not recog-
nizcd by law They demand in effect
that thcwomon frcqucntilg licensed mu-
