The Popularity of Mrs. Cleveland.
| Mrs. Grover Cleveland is the most
| popular woman in Princeton. Her
| charming, unaffected ways captured
| the hearts of the people Rarely day
| passes that she is not out on the streets
walking with her three daughters. She
| mods to all the townspeople and has q
| pleasant word for most of them. Her
visiting list is one of the largest in
| Princeton and many names are on it
| that do not belong in Princetons ex-
| elusive society. Mrs. Cleveland belongs
| to the charitable societies and takes a
| personal interest in their work. She
visits sick neighbOrs and takes an ac-
| tive interest in everything that goes on,
says the Sunday Chronicle.
| She is as charming rs when she went
to the White House bride.
When a reporter called at the Cleve-
| land home last week to inquire about
| the ex-presidents health she came
! bounding down the stairs to answer the
| inquiry. Her dress was simplicity it :
| self She wore a walking gown of heavy
| dark gray material and a waist CT
| black stuff, with dots of white. She
| wore no jewelry Her face was tanned
| and beamed with perfect health. Her
| eyes We're as clear and frank as they
! We're in the days when as the bride of
| the White House she won the hearts of
| the whole country. She evidently lives
much in the open air.
She devoteS most of her time to her
household, her three girls, Ruth, Esther
Marion, and her boy Dick. Dick is now
by governess. The quiet life is as
much to Mrs. Cleveland's taste as it is
to that of her husband She was first
to fall in love with Princeton and sug
gested it as future home. She had
gone to Princeton with Mr. Cleveland,
where he was to speak a t the sesquicen-
tennial. She was impressed by the
quiet. dignified air of the town and
wanted to go there to live. The idea
pleased Mr.. Cleveland and he bought
his present home from Mrs Slidell. His
lectures at Princeton are a. feature of
the university. His grave illness threat
ened a long-cherished plan of the
Princeton people They are looking for
ward to the institution of a big sslW de-
partment, over which he will preside.
