BORROWED AND STOLEN.
The Presidential Train Making Its
WayThrouh Wisconsin.
Flowers In Profusion Strew the
Pathway of thoChief Executive
On His Journey to the
Creat Northwest-
The Cleveland Crush In Chicago
Chicago, Oct. 0. Swarms of people
ajjain filled nil the approaches to tho
Palmer liou.se this morning eagerly
watching for a glimpse of President
Cleveland when he shtdl emerge for the
drive to the international military en
campment. Crowds of workmen and
shop girls on the way to their daily tasks
forgot for the time being, the toil before
them and pressed forward through the
jam of country people aud well dressed
city sight-sccrs. Half ajdozen mounted
police had no little trouble clearing a
passage for the president's carriage, which
was drawn by four spanking bays. The
sky was lowering and every one was pre
dicting rain would fall before the presi
dent could make a start. Not a drop
fell, however, and at 8:45 Mr. Cleveland
looking but littto worse for his hand
shaking of the previous day, appeared
at the arched doorway. With hat doffed
and many good natured bows to the
cheering crowd, he lightly sprang into
the waiting carriage, and in a inoinr :
was whirling through tho thickest of the
busings 'Tj'-''t v-l out Washington
boulevard, iu ...o ... . . .'. '. .vas
accompanied by Mayor Roche, General
Terry and a dozen lesser dignitaries.
Early as it was and threatening as the
day, the sidewalks along the entire route
were lined with people, including thous
ands who, notwithstanding strenuous ef
forts all day yesterday and in the
evening, had failed to see the president
or his wife in the general confusion pre
vailing. A ludricous incident occured at the en
trance to the encampment grounds. The
president's carriage got stuck in tho mud.
There was not a moment's time to spare
ind the prancing bays were smartly
lashed with the whip. It was nip and
tuck with the mud that was made thick
and sticky by the rain during the night.
Finally the vehicle containing the chief
magistrate of the nation gave a terific
unge forward and was gone from the
aughing, cheering crowd. A rapid
drive past two or three thousand troops
drawn up in line, the thundering salute
from the artillery and bows and smiles
to a couple of thousand spectators in the
stands, completed the ceremonies at the
encampment. Without delay the prcsi
dent boarded a train for the depot down
town, from which he started for Milwau
kee. It lacked but three miuut?s to 10
o'clock, the schedule time of starting for
Milwaukee, when he arrived. 3Irs.
Cleveland had preceded him by half an
hour, slipping quietly into a carriage at
the hotel and being driven to the de
pot comparatively unobserved. The
hundreds of spectators crowding the
waiting rooms when she arrived had
grown to thousands in the short interval
before the president came. Behind the
ong railing on the platform parallel
with the presidential train it seemed like
a quarter stretch on derby day so closely
jacked and thoroughly excited were the
people. Mrs. Cleveland gazad out from
the windows of her car with decided in
terest that was hightened when the presi
dent stepped from the incoming train on
an adjoining track and briskly walked
to her side. At once a choras of entreat
ies went up for them to come out on the
platform. "We want to see Mrs. Cleve
land"Jand "Three cheers for Grovcr" were
the cries. When Mrs. Cleveland in her
green traveling dress, and the president
with head uncovered, ap2cared at the
rear door of the train a mighty cheer
rolled through the depot. Just then the
train began to move, a burst of sunshine
it up the scene, and while the multi
tude yelled itsself hoarse the president
and his fair young wife waved farewell
to Chicago.
At Milwaukee.
Milwaukee, Oct. G. Up to to-day
Milwaukee had been only once honored
by the presence as her guest of a president
of the United States. Kino years ago
'resident Hayes was accorded an enthus
iastic reception, and was the lion of a
day that has since been generally record
ed in tli3 city's annals with a red letter.
To-day Milwaukee was glowing with
patriotism over its second opportunity to
do honor to the chosen ruler of the peo
ple. The day opened brightly alter a
rather unpromising night, during which
the muttering of thunder was frequently
:..,i .,r ,r;v;,l (1ish(s of litrht
lH-i.WIllJ"'1 j
ning and rain at intervals. The colore
decorations that were yefcte day put i
place suffered somewhat from the water,
but the blending effect of tho rain
or...n inutfiiirr.s formed urettv conibina
Thr. tr.iin bearing Presi
dent Cleveland and lady arrived proiuj
lv on time. The presidential salute w
fired by a battery on shore and the rcy
cnue steamer "Andy Johnson" openet
her ports anil echoed a response Tl
prearranged plans were quickly put i
oppcration, the escort of the distinguis
ed visitors took up its position, and
the
parade began. The military presented
fine appearance. It was the largest para
id
of the militia that has ever been seen
MilraiikfR since the crreat reunion
in
in
18S0. The local companies participating
were Sheridan guards, Kosciusko guards
South Side rifles, Lincoln guards, Mil
waukee cadets aud the bugle corps of tin
Light Horse squadron. Those from cut
side cities were from Applleton, Water
town, two companies from Oshkosh
Fond du Lac, Ripon, Wanpun, Sheboy-
gan, Beaver JJam, two companies ironi
- .
Arnnitnivnp tlin .Tnnnsville fruards and
Beaver City rifles of Jancsville. As th
procession traversed the line of march t he
were frequent bursts of cheering amd th
president bowed repeatedly and lifted
tils hat in response to the cordial saluta
tions. Mrs. Cleveland bore herself a;
serenolv as a nueen. The buildings on
oli s'des of the streets were tastefully
decorated with national colors, ever
g.te-,9, etc. On Wisconsin street, oppo
site the'r club rooms, the Juneau club
an organization composed of young dem
ocrats, erected a graceful arch of cver-
nreen lifiarinrr the word "Welcome" and
O
a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland and
along the walk in front of its quarters a
large reviewing stand from which mem
bers of the clnb and their ladies greeted
the president and his wife and showered
flowers upon them. . The government
building was also decorated with nation
al colors and with portraits of the presi;
dent and wife.
The reception was a model one in plan
and execution. A raised and railed jArt
form had been erected so as to keep the
struggling throng from overrunning the
president as he left the train. Hie grand
parade was waiting and travelled a cir
cuious route to the court house, where
the honored guests and reception com
mittee took places on the platform. The
parad j then passed in review, after which
Mayor Wallbeer made the welcoming
speech, to which the president responded.
Caused by Shaking Hands.
. In speaking with an old army officer on
the subject of the frequent Indian out
breaks within -the past few j ears, he ad
vanced a singular theory, which, to hi3
mind, at least, accounted satisfactorily
for much that has heretofore seemed in
explicable. Said my friend: "In old
times, when it was necessary to prove the
assent to a written contract of persons
who could neither read nor write, this
was done by affixing their seals. When
tho Indian makes a contract he does so by
word of mouth, sealing the contract with
that solemnity which, to a redskin, means
all things ho shakes hands upon it. This
is a custom with the Indian which is re
served exclusively to ratify his contract,
and never, as with us, in salutation.
"When an occasion o importance de
mands that the chiefs shall come to Wash
ington, before starting they represent to
their tribes the business in hand, and state
that they will go and see the Great Father,
with whom they will enter into treaty.
Arrived in Washington, an interpreter
presents their case to tho president, who,
in good will to show that he is not above
giving a kind reception to tho humblest
man in the country, advances and proffers
his hand. The chiefs are delighted, and
return to their tribes, setting forth that
the Great Father has acceded to their
wishes, because, after hearing the case, he
shook hands with them. If, after the ex
ecution of a contract in the presence of
witnesses subsequently sworn to and re
corded, we should then break it so that a
suit in court would be the only remedy to
the party injured thereby, the situation
would not be more serious here, while the
president shakes hands with an Indian
who afterward does not get or enjoy what
he understood would be given by that act
of handshaking. All of which goes to
prove, in conclusion, that the president
uld never shake hands with an Iu
Washington Letter,
Is It "Xcetner" op "Nitber?'
Tho pronunciation of the word "neither" Is
very generally considered to be a matter of
taste. Most dictionaries give both pronun
ciations, but good speakers invariably give
the long e sound, although tho long i sound is
generally supposed to have no more serious
objection than being somewhat affected, and
is a pronunciation often adopted by clergy
men, especially Episcopalians. It is how
ever, incorrect, as its origin will show. It i3
well known that the Gorman pronunciation
of e is long, as "das feind," tho enemy, while
the English rula is to pronounce tho diph
thong as long e, as "receive." Tho ouz e
sound was invariably given in "neither"
until tho reign of Georgo J of England.
Being of tho house of Hanover, and speaking
English indifferently, he gave the Gercnan
pronunciation to the diphthong. Court para
sites thought it proper to ape the king and
this pronunciation spread. Few people know
this origin, and hence the general mistoko.

LADIES OF THE HAREM.
HOME LIFE SCARCELY EXISTS FOR
THE MOHAMMEDAN.
In Theory tho Moslem Classes Ills Harem
with Mecca's Holy of Hollos Social
Customs In Various Countries of the
Eant.
In theory the Moslem classes his women
kind with tho Holy of Holius at Mecca. The
innermost shrine of his temio and the rooms
with latticed windows are both called by tho
Efin io name of harem or snored. Tho apart
ment is harem, and the ladies who live in it
nro harem for all but tho lord and master.
Ho may enter at will, but generally an
nounces his coming beforehand, so that ho
may not run tho risk of meeting female visi
tors, who are probably tho wives of his
frijnds. In well regulated houses the hus
band intrudes only at fixed hours, perhaps for
a short time after niid.lny prayer, ami does
not elso favor his harem till he retires to rest.
Home life such as we understand it can
scarcely bo said to exist 'for the Mohamme
dan. The man lives in and ut his work out
side and tho woman among her slaves and
friends in tho harem.
In many respects tho harems of Constanti
nople are allowed greater liberty than thoso
of J'.gypt and Persia, Tho ladies of Stam-
boul are much addicted to walking, whereas
thoso of Cairo nro never seen in tho streets on
foot. At tho Sweet Waters the harems stray
over tho meadows or picnic on tho banks cf
tho Iviaglit Khaneh stream, with tho fresh
air blowing round them. Tho Egyptian
dnnies, however, ca:i never stir except in
their carriages, ami can only view tho world
and their neighbors from tho windows of a
brougham. Tho Bezetan of htainloul is
daily honored by great Indies, who also think
no evil of riding in tho public tranicars be
tween Galata and Pera; but an Egyptian
harem who attempted to mix with tho crowd
in such promiscuous fashion would be
promptly banned. In other ways, however,
especially since tho days of Ismail Pasha, tho
harem of Cairo has opened its eyes consider
ably to what goes on beyond its proper ken
Tho wives and families of foreign residents
and travelers put down the various high
harems on their visiting lists, and the W
weekly promenades 0:1 tho Sboobra and Gezi
reh avenues give tho veiled ones aji oppor
tunity of seeing in the flesh the personages of
whom they aro perpetually hearing stories
and anecdotes. It also gives tho men a chanco
of having this and that khanem pointed out
to them as they whirl past in their neat little
carriages till each gets to know tho other by
sight at least tolerably well. The opera and
the afternoon promenade are tho chief excite
ment of Egyptian harem life. The Cairo
opera house, built by the late khodi-o in a
stylo commensurate with tho lavish disregard
of expense which marked his reign, is fitted
with a dozen boxes on tho second tier, whoso
fronts are framed with a gauzy screen, ena-
blingjtho occupants to watch the play and the
house, and supposed to prevent the houso
from watching them. Tho sparkling of bright
eyes and diamonds aro nevertheless apt to
attract discreet attention, and a powerful
glass nearly annihilates tho screeu, so that
tho beauties in reality como not only to seo,
but to bo seen, hko their western sisters
round them. A separate en trail ca leads up
to tho harem boxes, aud after tho fall of the
curtain tho harem don their habarahs and
steal out to their carriages by a back way.
where 16 is whispered that many u note and
boubouuiere await them on thr.ir passage.
The afternoon drive is also an iraaginary
contact with the world, though, as a matter
of fact, the ladies miht almost as well be at
home. At 4 o'clock or thereabouts, a natty
littlo brougham, drawn by a pair of long
tailed i-tussian horses, drives up to tho door
and the ladies, for they almost invariably
drive two and two a great lady accom
panied by a friend or a slave girl are as
sisted into tho carriage with as much care as
if they were made of snow. Tho more
scrupulous ones will even hold a para
sol between their faces and the coachman to
prevent contamination from side glances.
ilost of them, however, start with full intent
to be seen as much as possible, and after set
tling themselves dowji on tho satin cushions
and assuring themselves that the mirror is
well dusted, the cigarettes and matches in
their places, tho chocolate crea.ns or nougat
fresh from the bakery, and the bouquet sweet
and properly arranged, slip oil the habarah
aud are ready to front the gazo of tho curi
ous. Tho thinnest of yashmaks covers the
reddest of lips, and tho chin and well kohled
eyes keep a smart look out for exchaugo of
compliments with passers by.
The wives of tho pushas do not wear the
Turkish transparent yashmak, but cover
their mouths and the lower part of the face
with a cambric or cotton bui ghoo tied round
tho back of tho head. The Shoobra and
Gezireh drives are to Cairo much what tho
Row is to London, and all the young beys
n:id pashas don their best, and either caracole
forth on their prancing steeds, or, more
luxuriously, aro driven In the train of the
harems. If the lady is inclined to exchange
flowei'S, notes, cigarettes, or even conversa
tion, no hindrance is likely to be offered by
tho black janitor on the box seat of the driver.
But talking must bo done iu private, and somo
side walk or otlicv wiso secluded spot must bo
chosen for anything more than a flyiaj pass
ing compliment. For in tho east every man
is the guardian, not only of Ids own harem.
but also of everybody else's. A man may
thrash his own wife to death, with very doubt
ful chances of anybody intervening, but he
may not look at his neighbor's harem. Uonie

Tho Term "Shop GlrL
Inadvertently I have aroused the indigna
tion of a great army of young women who
earn their living by selling goods from be
hind counters by alluding to them as shop
girls. Thereby 1 have learned some lessons
about the social structure behind the count
ers. I had supposed that the good old generic
English term, "shop girl, might properly bo
applied to every woman who sold goods to a
Bhopper. It seems, however, that the young
women of New York who correspond in
position to tho male counter jumper deem
themselves entitled to be called "sales ladies,"
and ore even offended at the term "sale
woman." In their private vocabulary a
shop girl is one who works in the factories.
Tho term shop gm, however, will probably
still satisfy the great majority of tho people
who believe in plain Anzlo-Saxon English,.
