That strange coincidence was brought to an end by Cleveland's marriage In the second year of his administration. Prom the day Cleveland entered the executive mansion at Albany, gossip busily made matches for him with one after another of the eligible women who appeared at his receptions. A special favorite of those persistent rumors was the pretty widow of one of his old law partners, Oscar Folsom, whose home was one of the few homes la Buffalo where this unsocial person had been in the lmblt of visiting. It was not suspected that all along his own choice had been the daughter rather than the mother. Mrs. Folsom and her daughter were guests of the president and Miss Cleveland In their first month at the White House. Even the wiseacres of Washington did not guess that the beautiful young girl who was present at a reception all In white would lu another year he the bride of her host. Miss Folsom had graduated and was traveling In Europe when the country was set In a flutter by the announcement of her engagement. She returned home to meet such an ordeal as no ever other American girt of twenty-twhas faced. Her name was on ('very tongue In America; her portrait was In every paper, arid the press boats o In the mile square of former Russian barracks In Alexandropol, Republic of Armenia, are housed 0,347 little Armenian orphuns under care of the Neur East Relief Every bite they eat, every st it h they wear, K the gift of the people of the Ended Slates, through the Near East Relief.
