Mrs. Beasley was born in North Carolina lina of wealthy parents , whose family ramilientiotiB extended into almost every state in the south. Among them was her grandfather , Jacob Ilauxcr. who was one of the most extensive distillers in Kentucky in his day. At liis home bhe passed several months of each year of her early girlhood. Even then her mechanical tastes showed themselves. Mrs. Beasley now recalls with oviden enjoyment her early triumphs over nature of what certainly must have been an 5mmature mind. The lirst exploit of this woman in ventor which had any practical nso , was a sailboat built by her , unaided by hand or advice of any ono else , complete in every respect and largo enough to carry in safety her and her dog. She was then but thirteen years old. In course of time Dr. John B. Beasloy , a widely-known medical practi tioner near her homo , in North Carolina , secured her consent to n marriage. About the outbreak ol the war Dr. Beaslcy's health failed , and they went to Mr. Ilair/.or'h farm , in Kentucky , to live. Poases-sed f iniinj chives' , the emancipation proclamation and the olTccts of the war loft thorn de nuded of all but the land , which Mr. llaiuor had willed to hit ) granddaughter For ten years the family remained ii the south , when early in the contcimin year Mrs. Beasloy , who had become the head of the family through tlio illness of her husband , sold out the land whicl had been loft her and cnmo north with the intention of educating her two sons They came to Philadelphia. It was in 18bl ( when ono morning seated in her parlor reading a news paper , slio remarked to her son Oscar : "How many advertisements there are of 'cooporn wanted. ' " "They make barrels only by hand,1 remarked young Mr. Beasloy. "Haven't they invented machines to make barrels yotV" asked Mrs , Beasloy 'No , " was the answer , und bho promptly and decisively- declared : " 1 will ! ! " These words wore but the prolndo lo her packing her trunk and starting 01 a trip which took her lo Now York Cleveland. BulValo and every place ii the country whuro , barrels wcro made in largo numburs , She nmdo a thor ough search for all appliances in un\ "I found the j rnio old machines , ' miynslio , "which 1 had noticed in m.v grandfathor's shop.

DoniCHtlo Fclluitj'lii tlio White Philndolphiii Tolograjih : The louder bide of Mr. Clevolana'a nature is hid from the public , ihcro is an inner ifo at the white house that sots an example of connubial hnppinchs. The young countryman is not more devoted to the bride whose hand ho holds as they walk about booing the bights at Washington than is the president devoted to Mrs. Cleveland. The ceremony that brought that much-loved little - tlo woman into his household scarcely more than two years ago was a mngicnl rile that changed the man. All this is hidden from the public as it should bo , ami the interested imagina tion is left to draw pictures for itself , clilVcring in kind according to the disposition of the mind. If malice had not drawn picluros lo its own liking ; and circulated them as photographs from naluro , the public would havo.no right to bo admitted into the secret lifts of these two people. The public gets enough of the time they would gladly devote to each other. Cleveland is not a man in whom people ple are apt to look for bonti nion t. This element novel- enters into his public acts. But all tboso who have been visit ors at the white hotibo since ho llrst took his bout have noticed the change iu him binco bis marriage , Ho has an oll- hand , though not nUogothor ungracious way of talking with these public men who call on him during business hours , and the delegations who como to urge his and Mrs. Cleveland's attend ance upon this or upon tnat oc casion are received with an iu- ormal and business like fraiikucps. ITo will stand with his hands behind him and listen to what they have to say with n n almost o.\prosbionlebs countenance. Hut if the name of Mrs. Cleveland is mentioned an opimslon comes into his eves that no 0110 with a shadow of i-on- sibilitios could fail to undorhtand. The oxiircosion is of jirido and devotion. When ho speaks of her his expression ami maiinor ohangcb and there is a ton- dornchs in his voice which ho can not ( libgulbO , liib manners are frequently abrunt.

All the time not occu pied by public hiininobs ho devotes to nor. Tlio domestic lifo nt the wbito hoiihu , and more o ) ) oc.iuliv at Oak View , is ono of traiujiiility and happiness. Man and wifo' never look moro pleasure iu each other's bocioty , Only pon-ons who hnvo the plnasuro of being intiinato with thorn can know of this. Mrs. Clove- hind's school friends , who have visited her and Ihod in the houbu for weeks. want no proof of the happiness that dwells in that household.
