ter when his pen touched the paper.
His handwriting was small, but clear.
1t was like copper-plate. Probably no
president of recent times used a pen
with as much frequency as Cleveland
The painstaking character of Mr..
Cleveland's work will be realized when
it is known that he made personal
examination of every paper that came
before him. This particularly was
true of the records of courts-martial of
officers of the army and navy.
Whether the defendant was an ensign
or an admiral, a lieutenant or a gen
eral, he could depend on Mr.. Cleveland
to give fair consideration to the re-
port Of his trial. 1t frequently hap
pened that Mr.. Cleveland detected
flaws in the proceedings of the court,
in which case the officer benefited
either in the way of modification of
his sentence or new trial.

popularity was so great that he expert
enced little difficulty in polling a large
vote for mayor. This campaign oc.
Cured during a time of political up
heaval, when Buffalo was one Of the
doubtful cities of the state. From the
close of the war up to the '90s no one
could foretell just how the municipal
elections in Buffalo would turn out.
Cleveland was made candidate for gov
ernor particularly because of his Wig
orous administration of the mayors
office. His most conspicuous act was
the veto of an ordinance of the council
granting contract for cleaning the
city to personal friends. Cleveland
regarded this contract as against pub
lie policy, and, Notwithstanding the
pressure exercised by his closest ad-
visers. he disapproved the measure, and
by this act attracted the attention of
the state. There is not the slightest
doubt that what Mr. Cleveland did on
that occasion had a greater bearing
on his future political career than any.

Try Lardins Lean and pry Meat.

Larding is quite easy-it only re-
quires care and accuracy. 1t simply
needs larding-needle and some neatly
and eveniE-cut strips of fat, bacon or
pork, which are used exactly as if
they were pieces Of wool or thread,
one large stitch being taken through
the meat and the short ends of the
fat left sticking out The strips are
called lardons. The fat bacon or pork
to be used in the process should be
kept in cold place. Use that part
of the pork which lies. between the
rind and the vein. Lean and dry meat
and some kinds of game are much i'm
proved by larding.-The Delineator.

strongly Illustrated during the months
following his inauguration as presi-
dent, when Washington was crowded
with hungry place hunters. Two days
before the 4th Of March, 1885, about
800 Buffalonians came to the capital,
marched from the freight depot on Vir-
ginia avenue to Odd Fellows hall on
Seventh street, and took up their
quarters in the latter building. This.
contingent Justify carried out the os-
tensible purpose Of its visit to "Whoop
it up for Grove" The main object of
every man, however, was to secure a
job under the federal government
Their ambitions ranged from collector
of internal revenue down to driver of
the mail wagons. The candidates re-
manned in Washington seven days and
then departed without a single plum

band of 300 none secured an appoint.
ment from Mr.. Cleveland during either
.of his administrations.
The most conspicuous example. per-
haps, of Mr. Cleveland's unwillingness
to consider friends for public Office
was that furnished by the case of the
late Daniel M. Lockwood. Lockwood
placed the name of Cleveland before
Democratic conventions for mayor,
governor and president. AS his re-
ward he sought appointment as United
States minister at Madrid. He secured
enough Endorsements to qualify him
self for a cabinet Office. Mr.. Cleye-
land had other views. however, with
the result that the close friendship be-
tween the two men was ruptured. and
Mr.. Lockwood did not renominate
Cleveland in the convention of 1883.
The breach was apparently unclosable,
but at last Mr.. Cleveland rendered
Lockwood the position of district at

cLEvELANo's HOME LIEE.

an ONE occasion a New York paper
which was especially virulent In
its treatment of Mr.. Cleveland
printed story to the effect that on
the previous night he had gotten beast
ly drunk and had kicked his wife down
stairs, bruising her terribly and black.
ing both her eyes.
Those who knew the charming rela-
tons which existed between the presi-
dent and his wife were indignant at
the publication. That it was abso-
myself. Crossing the White House
grounds, saw Mrs. Cleveland bending
over a bed of pansies in which she
took special interest. She was a beau
tiful picture that morning. Her eyes
were as clear as crystal, showing that
she had slept well, and her skin with
cut a blemish. The alleged brutality
of Mr.. Cleveland towards his wife was
frequently described by the paper re-
ferred to, but never did 1 see any justi-
fication or foundation for the state
ments it published. Because the presi-
dent and Mrs. Cleveland refused to ex.
hibit their children to tho gaping
crowd reports were published that
they were idiots and that one of them
was blind. These reports were not
only false, but so cruel as to arouse
the hearty indignation of the friends
of the president and his wife.
1t has been often said, and with JUS
tice, that Mrs. Cleveland made an ideal
First Lady Of the Land" Probably
Mrs. Cleveland did what no other wife
of president attempted. At recep-
tons she would take a step forward
and shake hands with the caller, re-
turning to her position before saluting

standing is that these amendments
were subsequently adopted All the
Habinet knew for three or four months
before congress convened that this
Aombshell had been prepared. Never
AAeless. it was kept absolutely secret.
Nobody knew anything about it. AS
Mr.. Cleveland himself said. he did not
believe in doing public business on the
sidewalk. The message that Mr.. Cleve-
land afterwards wrote was prepared by
himself just after he had returned from
m outing. He had gone down the
river on fishing excursion. and when
he got back the message was written,
occupying him for two days. The mes
sage was read to the cabinet before 1t

~ - ASHINGTON-The interest
~ IN the personality Of Grover
WV Cleveland has naturally re-
called many incidents OF
the days when his was the
most forceful figure in
American public life. Nothing which
he ever did while president attracted
more attention than the famous mes
sage he sent to congress in December,
1895, on the subject of Great Britain's
controversy with Venezuela over the
boundary between the latter country
and British Guiana. In an interview
with a New York Times correspond
ent Hilary A. Herbert, then Mr.. Cleve-
lands secretary of the navy, now for
the first time tells the true inwardness
OF that historic episode.
1.-THE foundation for Mr.. Cleveland's
celebrated Venezuelan message" said
Mr.. Herbert, was the note of Secre-
tary of State Olney to Lord Sails
bury, the British minister for foreign
affairs. That note was written during
the congressional recess, three months
before congress convened, and before
Mr.. Clevelands message was prepared.
The Olney note was drafted after a
consultation between the secretary of
state and Mr.. Cleveland during the
summer at Great Gables on Buzzard's
bay. Mr.. Olney went there, as l have
always understood, to confer with the
president about the Venezuelan ques-
ton. The note was submitted to every
member of the cabinet l remember
distinctly was in Washington that
summer and a copy of Inc note came
to me and Mr. Carlisle, the secretary
of the treasury, and Mr. Lamont, the
secretary of war, and we considered
the policy together.
Il remember that as the note devel-
Oped it almost took my breath away,
and was inclined to oppose its presen-
tation, but before the reading was fin
ished realized its force and value and
/ heartily approved it. Between Mr..
Carlisle, Mr.. Lamont and myself some

AS FRIEND AND LAWYER.

CLEVELAND was more Of socia-
BILE man than a social one. He en-
joyed few social relations in Buff
falo, rarely visiting the houses Of
friends. At the same time he was
most convivial with his male acquaint-
ances. He was fond of playing cards
in his youth and spent most of his time
with the boys. AS lawyer he seldom
practised in court, and. while never re-
garded as close student, he had the
facility of grasping legal problem,
which made him invaluable as counsel.
His practice was confined almost alto
gether to his Office, his associates
making the arguments in court.

that when the carriage stopped Cleve-

A BAD cAMPAIGNER.

CLEVELAND was known always as
L. bad campaigner. 1t was an ex-
tremely difficult thing to get him
to take an active part in politics, even
when he was running for office him.
self. When he was nominated for may
or of Buffalo, a quarter of a century
ago, his political managers were in
despair because of his Indifference.
The future president would promise to
speak, but when the time came he
would fail to appear, and then it was
