Ihe Coming of a Daughter.
Mr. Grover Cleveland presented the
Prtslrient a little daughter at th While
House at high noon on Saturday. Thl I
Hit unadorned atalemont of an event which
thrilled the heart of all her countrymen,
and wa Unshed under the sest to meet Ihe
enngrsttt story responses of Emperor and
King. The event wa not n complete sur
prise, a from time to time within the last
few months rumors of ita prospective occur
rence, veiled a such announcements al
ways are, trickled like coiilldencea Into the
column of the press.
Dr. Bryant, of New York, th family
physician of Mrs. Cleveland, returned wilh
Mr. aud Mrs. Cleveland Irom Gray Gnb!e
some days ago, and Ibis fact gave rla to
renewed g sslp concerning thl Imt orient
event In the live of the Chief Executive
and hi wife. But the Impression that Dr.
Bryan) was her In alien Jiince upon th
President rather served to quiet the rumors
that he waa remaining at the Executive
Mansion for the emergency.
The baby wa born st exsclly high noon,
just as Ihe ball on the Staie, War and Navy
buildings opposite the White House drop
ped Irom the top or the stsfl.
Although there had been an air of exrec
ianey about tbe While House during the
morning, Ind ented by the fact that Ihe
servants stood In group eicbur.ging whis
pered confidence and by the noiseless
tread with which tbey glided about the
htiibiing, Ibere was nothing 10 signify that
anything iitiii-iial was tn occur in the large
room aiiloiiiing the abinet c'laniber on tbe
second lloor w here the President receives

iously Inquired'.
' I II a boy or a girl?"
Something like 11 shadow of disappolnt
iihiiI swept aero Mr. Cleveland a face as
the physician told blm thai the new-born
babe was a girl. V bile be was talking Willi
Dr. Bryant little Ruth was brought Into Ihe
l.sllwav by her nurse. When she espied
her father with a about of delight she
s'rtlched out her snna lo him. The Presi
dent took her lovingly In bis embrace strok
ed her hair and kissed her tenderlv. saying
wilh a note of tremulous endearment lii his
lone, "Ruth, my dear, you have a little
sister."
Mrs. Terrine, the mother of Mr. Cleve
