Washington, Sept 11.—There is a new baby in the white house. It's a girl, too. Exactly at noon on Satunlay the president's second child was born. The event occurred without attracting any unusual attention, and it was two hours before the news of the baby's arrival was made known. Tiie announcement, which was given out at 2 o’clock, was accompanied by tiie statemenl that Mrs. Cleveland and her new daugh ter were doing well at that hour and there was no anxiety felt for the safety of either. The president’s family physician. Dr. Bryant, who lias been in attendance at the white house for several days, made the statement. Tiie president was the first person outside of the sick chamber to be informed that the crisis had passed and that Mrs. Cleveland and her baby were doing exceedingly well The president had a private interview with the physician and received ids congratulations on the happy termination of their anxieties. At the president's suggestion nothing was said of the event for two hours

The lonjj list of dead ; and dying' and wounded is tiie re- ; suit of a mistake. The world's fair ! special should have been signaled to stop for orders at Colehour. The block , signal showed a clear track and tiie train dashed past tiie station and down ! the sweeping curve. A moment later. : and out from behind the clump of j trees that stood in the bend of the track, rushed the Valparaiso accommodation. Both trains were running at j full speed. Not 300 yards apart the two engines 1 loomed up face to face. Death was in their roar and rumble and it was too late to avert it. The men at the tbrotj ties threw tholr engines back and turned on the air. A tremor ran through tiie trains as tiie air-brakes clamped the , wheels. It was a warning, sutticient only to send a shudder through the hearts of doomed meu, and then cams tiie crash of death. As if breaking

the remark that it might be made public. Within a few minutes after he heard the news the president was informed that the Japanese prince was awaiting in the blue parlor to pay his respects. The president had made an engagement to receive him at noon and he decided to keep it, regardless of his deep personal interest in other matters just at that particular time. The prince was in ignorance of what had occurred. When he was satisfied that there was no longer any danger the president returned to his office and resumed his duties * with a lighter heart and considerable more enthusiasm than he had displayed in the forenoon. Several members of the cabinet called to offer their congratulations in person. Just before tiie occurrence of the day tiie gates leading through tiie rear part of the Executive park were closed to insure absolute quiet about the mansion. Mr. Olney happened to be at the white house when the president came back to his office from tiie sick room, shortly after 2 o'clock, and was the first member of the oflicial family To tender his

good wishes.

Bunches of roses from intimate friends poured into the white house and there was a general air of suppressed excitement about the employes of the mansion. Telegrams of congratulation have been received from all parts of the country. The baby is a bright-eyed, healthy looking one. She has not yet been weighed, but is said to

be of good size.

The 9th of September will henceforth be a historic day in American history. Although the United States has been in

existence as a nation for more than a hundred years no child of a president had ever been born in the white house until Saturday. There have been other

children born in the historic old pile,

but they were not descendants of the executive. There is a seeming fitness that the first and only president to be married in the white house should also be the first whose child should be born there. Of the babies who first saw

Then there were screaming, crying, moaning and shrieking of the dying, , tiie crushed, the mangled. Those who were able to move about and tho uninjured rushed hither and thither, dazed and frantic after the shock. Both engineer and fireman of tho ; Valparaiso train escaped unhurt by jumping from the cab. They remained at the scene of the accident, aiding in rescuing the injured. Engineer Maurice Hart said: “1 have my orders in my pocket and I am ail right. We had tho right of way. I didn’t see the PuuUandle train until it was too late.” Conductor J. W.

The white signal meant that the track

was clear.”

F. B. O'Connor, train dispatcher for tiie Pennsylvania road at Fort Wayne, is charged with a fatal blunder. He sent what is known as a "time order” to Conductor Btud-ir and Engineer Hart, of the north-bound “milk train'' or Valparaiso accommodation due at Coleiiour at 8:45 a. in.

MEDICAL DISCOVERY. DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS., Has discovered in one of our common pasture weeds a remedy that cures every kind of Humor, from tiie worst Scrofula

down te a common Pimple.

He has tried it in over eleven hundred cases, and nev er failed except in two cases (both thunder humor). He has now in his possession over two hundred certificates of its value, all within twenty miles of

Boston.

A benefit Is always experienced from the first bottle, and a'perfect cure is warranted when the right quantity is taken. When the lungs are affected it causes shooting pains, like needles passing through them; the same with the Liver or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being stopped, and always disappears in a week after taking it. If the stomach is foul or bilious it will cause squeamish feelings at first. No change of diet ever necessary. Eat the best you can get, and enough of it. Dose, one tablespoonful in water at bedtime, and read tiie Label.
