"PULL" WITH THE PRESIDENT.
Miss Nellie Parker Said to Have Great

Miss Nellie Parker Said to Have Great
Influence at the White House.
Miss Nellie Parker, of Richmond,
Va, may not be a political boss, but
she has a long and strong pulp with
President Cleveland. Miss Parker de-
serves to have much influence at Wash
ington-or anywhere else, for that mat
ter-for she is one of the distinguished
beauties of the South, and that is say
ing great deal. The story of the
great favor she is held in by the ad-
ministration Is interesting. Some
months ago the President visited At
lanta, and Miss Parker took advantage
of his presence there to call upon him.
He was immensely delighted with the
young lady and gave her, as n souvenir
of the occasion, brand-new cent
piece. This he told her to guard care
fully, and when she wanted entree to

piece to the guards, and that she would
be admitted readily and without ques-
ton. Miss Parker treasured her cent
piece with great care. Not long ago
she was In Washington, and she
thought she would try the talismanic
effect of Mr.. Cleveland's coin present.
She did, and, mirabile dictu! its glis-
tening red color acted rs an open ses-
anne, and Miss Parker was promptly
ushered into the presidential presence.
Miss Parker is one Of the bellies Of
Richmond, and 1t noted throughout the
South for her charm Of person. She Is
the daughter of DR.. w. w. Parker, a
well-known medical man Of Virglnia's
capital.

Death, when die, pray thee let it be
In autumn. when across the spiky furze
There floats the film of silver gossamers-
In early autumn, when the cherry tree
Is touched with flame, the beech with russell

And DER the fallow field and purple lea
The starlings scream, while swallows put to

And woolly mists hang light on wood and void.
Now, when no sound is heard, unless it were

While thoughts of summer linger in tho air.

Is still as grief. and peace Is everywhere,
