MIR. CIevelnnG's Country Home.
From the New York Sun.


Washington, Feb 16.-President Cieve-
lands country place, just on the outskirts
of the city, will be placed on the market
for sale soon after March 4, and will
probably bring a higher figure than was
paid for IL three years ago. although real
estate in Washington has made little adj
vance In that time. Mr.. Cleveland paid
$4,000 for the house and grounds, and
since then has expended some money on
improvements. which may bring the price
of the place to $4,000. 1t is not so pre-
pied by the President when in Washington
during his first term. and which he sold
at profit of 100000 but is better located
and nearer the city. Suburban residents
who passed it i'm the afternoon two years
ago frequently saw three or four police
men standing around the gates. and any
one approaching not known to them was
ordered to proceed without lettering Those
were the days when the President was adj
viscd by MIR. Thurber that he was not
surrounded with proper guards. and was
urged to have the force at the white house
increased This was done and twice as
many police officers are on duty there
now as watched over the Presidents
household during Gen. Harrison's adminis-
tration. Mr. Cleveland has not visited
few weeks that he and Mrs. Cleveland
spent there last spring necessitated a
guard of four police officers, two Of whom
were on duty at all hours. The sale of the
Presidents property will probably produce
a lively competition among the real es-
tate brokers who want the job of selling
the place.

sTATUAHY MADE OF SNOW.
Park in Brussels Turned Into Ate-
Tier by Artists.

They have a pretty way of making
snowstorm contribute to the benefit of art
in Brussels. After heavy fall of snow,
accompanied by a frost that shows signs
of lasting for some time. the gates of the
Pare Royal are closed for the space OF
three days, during which time the public
are excluded. The students of the School
of Art are in the meantime informed that
by the courtesy of the king they are per-
mitted to transform the park into one vast
atelier, where they may pursue their stud
les out of doors, a permission of when
they take the fullest advantage. Each
student, under the guidance of his mas
ter, sets TO work at modelling subject in
snow. From morning to evening the en-
bryo artists labor hard, and at the dawn
of the fourth day the fete commences. the
park gates are under the charge of gem
darmes, and the public are admitted on
payment of five cents. The lump sum
that these entrance fees ultimately repre-
sent is handed over to the school as DO
nation, with the exception of the amount
put aside to pay for a military band as an
extra attraction during part of the DAY.
As the school barely pays its way the
money thus raised IS of inestimable ser
vice especially as while the spectacle IaSts

the entire populace, and the entertain
ment often realizes a very respectable
sum. Some of the figures are beautifully

Indians play is much more rounded out
The kicking game, which last season
they seemed to ignore as far as possible,
and, when forced to it. to execute poor
ly, is this year one of the strongest
points. Hudson's drop from near the
30 yard line in the Yale game was one
that recalled vividly Mr.. Bulls own
playing days. The Indian is born
tackler, and, like the bulldog, he never
lets 20. He is much more mercurial in
football than his brother, the pale face

extreme, and his elation correspondingly

General Manager Alfred X Nippert,
of the University Foot oall. Team, has
placed all arrangements for the Thanks

hands of Frank Hannaford, manager of
the '96 team, who had charge of the
same last year. The Program will be n
dandy. Patterned after those of the
Eastern Colleges, it will he an oval 6 x 8

pictures of the Indians and the Univer-
sity teams; of the managers, assistant
managers and coaches; of Capt. Pratt,

ings of the U. S. Indian Training School
at Carlisle, Pa, and historical and de-
scriptive sketch of the same; descr!p-
tions, weights. ages, etc. Of all the play
ers by the coaches the records OF the
team; articles by coach Fennell. etc on
the game, explaining it to the novice
and giving points many an enthusiast
never knew before And yet the price
will be placed within the reach of all,
ten cents.
Last year there was quite demand
for souvenirs from enthusiasts in and out
of town, unable to attend the game.
This year arrangements have been made
to supply the demand, if made in time,
to send out copies on receipt of twelve
cents. These applications should be
made at once, to enable the managers to
provide for an addition sufficiently large.
All communications regarding these
programs are to be addressed to Frank
Hannaford, advertising manager, 9th

ARRANGEMENTS have been made with
the railroads within q circuit of 12O

Washington, March To-day the Sen

Ealf passed the District of Columbia an
preparation bill, carrying items Co the
amount of 81 ,444, Gi7. being IAN excess of
81 ,635,O 600 over the bill as it passed the
House. Half of the amount is to be paid
out of the Treasury of the United States
and half out of the revenues of the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Then the naval appropriation bill was
taken up. 1t carries $50, 12S, 234, a little
over three aud half millions more than
the bill contained when it left the House
The principal items of increase are:
Naval station. Port ROYAL, S. c., S5O,-
600. Navy yard, Mare Island, Califor-
mia, S250,O00. Navy Hospital. Port
Royal, South Carolina, $4,000. Training

armor shall he purchased until it has all
been contracted for were passed over tenn
porarilv Also the amendment appropri-
ntinG 81, 800 600 for the establishment of
an arnlor factory.
The remainder of the hill having been
disposed of, the controverred amend.
ments were taken up.
The first question was on the provision
in the bill that the total cost of the armor
shall not exec ed 10000 to which the
Senate committee had reported the
amendment that no contract for armor
plate shall be made at II rate to exceed
800 per ton.
Mr.. Chandler, of New Hampshire,
moved to amend the Senate amendment
by making it read:
mo contract for armor plate shall lie
made Mt an average rate to exceed $500
per tom
On these several propositions discussion
was kept up until l;30i without any solu-
ton of the question.
The DILL was laid aside informally with
