the Generals friends to accept the report as true
Mrs Dlmmock lives in this city at No. 10 East Thir-
tv-elghth-st She has refused to add anything 10

she was much distressed that such report had be-

proper for her to comment upon H.
Russell Harrison, OF General Harrison, Is In
the city and is at the Imperial Hotel. Usually he is
approachab,e but Of late he has denied himself to
all newspaper men. The report OF General Harri-
sons engagement, however, has become generally
current and yesterday man of National reputation

The report comes from Indianapolis that the home
OF ex-President Harrison Is being enlarged .a'S and
has often complained OF being lonely at home since
his children have married and moved away, and
since his wife died. Mrs: Dimmock Is the daughter
of the favorte sister of General Harrisons Wife.
Her mother died just before ex-President Harrison
entered the White House As her husband has also @
been dead for some time, Mrs. Harrison urged her
to ard live at the Executive Mansion. This
she did and took part in the social side OF Pres
dent Harrisons Adminlstra ton. making II al the
more charming. When Mrs. Harrison's health failed
Mrs Dimmock not only helped 10 nurse her, but
also assumed charge OF the management OF the
Presidential household. In this post she acquitted
herself noby. General Harrison has frequently ex-
pressed high admiration for her, ana there seems
