He took ouotdocr exerciee yesterday afternoon acd retuned at the usnal hoor. When the discovery of bi® death was made this morning the resi- dents of Princeton were grea'ly shocked and the grief of Mre. Cleveland ie almost uncontrolable.

It marked the end of ber life struggle which bad been waged for years in the interests of ber husband’s heelth. After baving col- lapeed, Mrz. Cleveland later rellied. He wae born in Caldwell, Essex county New Jersev, March 18. 1837, and was the ton of Richard Failey Cleveland, a Pres- byterian minister. His mother was Anne Neal, daaghter of a Baitimore merchant.

He became district attorney, afterward formed a law firm, known ae Lanniog, Cievelaud & Fo'som, and then was drawn into political fe, His record as sheriff of Erie counts wae so good that it secnred hisslection as mayor of Buffel. He saved tte citizens of the city $1,000,000 during the first 81x months of bis term by vetoing extravagant ap- propriations. This attracted outside attention, and be was eltcted governor of New York state the following year. In 1884 he wae nomivated by the Democratic national convention at Caicago, end defeated James G. Blaine He was again a can- didate in 1883, but wes defeated by Ben- jamin Harrison. The dietinction of being electe'l president after being defeated was his on tne following election, when Presidznt Harrison was defeated.
