hungry persons, while the soldiers
helped in any and every capacity that
was possible. Every person was sup
piled with all that they could eat, and
more than one heartfelt prayer was re-
corded for the generous and extensive
work so successfully carried out by
the members of the Army.

THE DAY AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
Children of Cabinet officials Held
High Carnival.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 25.-Chrtstrnas
was celebrated in q, home-like fashion
lon at the White House. The children,
not only of the president, but of the
entire cabinet circle, held high carnival
in the White House library. A noble
FIR tree stood in the center of the big
semi-circular room, so tall that 1t
touched the lofty ceilings, and so thick
and broad that it almost filed the
large room. Until late in the night
many willing hands had worked under
Mrs. Cleveland's direction in beautify-
ing this Christmas tree, and as it
stood this morning, when the bright
sun of Christmas day shone upon it's
tinsel and gilt and sparkled on the
artificial snow and the pendant icicles
and betrayed some pretty toy or
knfcknac concealed in the foliage, it
was a tree worthy of the White House.
The children were early awake, up
indeed, before most of the servants
and were soon gloating over their pres
entS and the contents of their stock
ings, which were generously filled by
Santa Claus. After breakfast, the vis-
1tors began to arrive, children Of the
members OF the cabinet, and the days
enjoyment was fairly begun There
were presents for each of the little
ones from Mrs. Cleveland, and in turn,
most of the visitors brought pretty tok-
ems of remembrance for the Cleveland
children. Marion and Ruth, who have
gotten along nicely in the study of
German, gave some pretty recitations,
and Christmas carols were sung. Mr..
and Mrs. Cleveland exchanged pres
ents, as has been their practice ever
since their marriage, and all of the
employees of the White House received
some appropriate and useful token Of
esteem.
