II as a special privilege to be permit
ted to sit on a divan which marks the
spot in the east room where Miss Grant
stood during the ceremony.
Much interest still is manifested in
Mr.. pendle's narration of the incidents
attending the marriage OF President
Cleveland TO Miss Frances Folsom.
This took place in the blue parlor and
was a comparatively private function.
Miss Folsom IA the daughter of an
old friend OF President Cleveland and
many years younger that he, but the
marriage has proved in every respect
to be a happy one. The officiating
clergyman was Rev. Byron Sunderland,
whom President Cleveland had known
during his early manhood and at whose
church the Cleveland family worshiped
while in Washington. Miss Folsom
came to Washington, and with her
mother took apartments at one of the
prominent hotels a DAY or two prior to
the wedding, after which the couple
spent their honeymoon at Deer park.
The latest wedding in the White
house was that of a niece Of Mrs. Nc.
Kinley, who was a daughter of Gener
al Hastings, and who married an Off
Ger in the United States army. Thi:
ceremony was also performed in the
blue room in the presence of immediate
relatives Of the young people.

the back label of every bottle; so par

FAME OF THE EAST ROOM.

A Washington special to the Record.
Herald says that when Miss Alice
Roosevelt n Representative Nicholas
Longworth are married in the White
house next February. it is understood
that the ceremony will take place in
the east room. 1t is to be a brilliant
function, surprising any event of a
similar nature in the annals of the
White house, SO far as social festivities
are concerned.
These coming nuptials recall those
held in the executive mansion during
the last half century, and particularly
the international marriage of Nellie
Grant and Algernon S~artoris while
General Grant was president. Happily,
the circumstances surrounding Nellie
Grants wedding are not applicable to
the courtship and the approaching nup
tials of Miss Alice Roosevelt. The
marriage of Miss Roosevelt 10 Mr.
Longworth is not only heartily sane.
toned by her father, but it meets with
the cordial approval of the nation.
c was not the case on Nellie Grants
wedding day.
There have been many alterations
in the White house since General
Grant was president, but the beautiful
HON life of the Grants is daily recall
ed by the natural American home at
mosphere which President Roosevelt
and his family create. The home life
of General Grant was somewhat SINH
lar to that of President Roosevelt. The
pride of General Grants heart was his
only daughter, Nellie. and the outside
world probably never knew, o could
1t realize, how hard it was for hin to
give her in marriage to the .dashing
young Englishman, whose subsequent
career was attended with so much mat
rimonial infelicity.
Although there have been only four
White house weddings in the last fifty
years there is no topic more interest
