EMPRESS'S DIPLOMAS PRESENTED TO NURSES Reward for Bravery at the Burning of the General Slocum. TOKENS BEAR HER SIGNATURE Presentation Ceremony on North Brother Island Near Scene of the Disaster of Last June. In behalf of the German Empress Augusta Victoria, diplomas commending their bravery were presented yesterday to fifty-one nurses on North Brother Island who aided in the rescue of women and children from the steamer General Slocum, which burned on June 15 last, with a loss of 1.000 live. The presentation was made by Acting Consul General Gneist. who waa escorted to the pier at the foot of East One Hundred and Sixteenth Street, where the steamer Franklin Edson, with a number of the officials of th Health Department aboard, awaited him.

The party landed at North Brother Island hortly after lO o'clock! The presentation ceremonies took place in the building occupied by the nurses. After Introducing the Acting Consul General. Dr. Darlington, in the course of his remarks, said: We have assembled that the women who assisted In the work of relief and rescue may receive, not a reward, but recognition of the service rendered from one whosu motherly and sympathetic heart goes out not only to her own family, but to all the sons and daughters of that great nation over which she and her husband no graciously preside, in whatever clime xr country they may be placed. This act.

simple in Itself, is but another link In the strong chain that binds our great Anglo-Saxon nations together." Dr. Darlington was followed by the Acting Consul General, who said: The terrible catastrophe of the burning of the steamer General Slocum. with its precious human freight, on June 15 last, sent a thrill of horror through the hearts of people everywhere. The enormous loss of life entailed In the calamity, the untold misery which followed In its immediate wake, evoked the deepest sympathy in even the remotest corners of our globe. All humanity seemed to mourn! Yet through all this gloom and darkness of appalling distress there pierced a gleam of brightest light the self-sacrlf tee and splen did heroism manifested by those to whom fell the enviable lot of stretching out a first helping hand to the frrintic mothers and unfortunate children that then strug gled for their lives in the waters near this island.

Among these rescuers, efficient work though all of them performed, none rendered more unselfish, more valiant service than the employes of this hospital. As by far the largest number of the unfortunate victims of the ill-fated steamer were descendants of Germany, these heroic deeds, although universally applauded, very naturally attracted more than ordinary attention in that country. But even in the latter they were, perhaps, by no one more deeply appreciated than by the Empress, who. ever ready to stimulate and- reward noble work. Immediately Jecided upon giving some appropriate expression to her gratitude for the aid extended to the Slocum victims.

A the outcome of these, her Majesty's magnanimous considerations. I now have the honor and pleasure to announce to you that, in recognition of your gallant services on the occasion of the Slocum disaster, her Majesty has graciously awarded to your head nurse. Miss Edith V. D. Smith, a golden brooch, and to each of you who.

as the result of the Investigation instltut.nl by the City of New York, were reported to have distinguished themselves on that dark June day. a diploma for rescue out of danger to human lire, with her Majesty's likeness and signature affixed thereto. The brooch bore the German coat of arms set with pearls and emeralds, while the diplomas wnicn me miirr mij women received were sheets of parchment, about lO by 14 inches, with a broad gold border.

Ex-President Grover Cleveland paid a tribute today to Joseph Jefferson. It la difficult." said Mr. Cleveland, for me to speak or Mr. Jerferson. He was so closely my friend, hi delightful traits were made so manifest to me In confidential Intimacy, and my love for him waa so great that his death causes me to feel like a mourner whose sorrow should be silent.

All knew my friend' professional supremacy and his conscientious service In professional work; many knew how xeal-ously he defended dramatic art. and how completely he illustrated the importance of its cleanliness; many knew how free he was from hatred, malice, and all un-charitableness, but fewer knew how harmoniously his qualities of heart and mind and conscience blended in tne creation of an honest, upright, sincere, and God-fearing man. I believe that in death he ha reached a world where the mercy of God abounds, and I knew that In the world of men the sadness of h.s loss will be felt the most by those who knew him best." WHITE HOUSE FUN CUT SHORT. Easter Egg Rollers Objected to Order to Leave at 1 o'Clock. fecial lo Th Sevir York Times.

WASHINGTON. April 24. Will you please lend me your baby?" was a frequent request in the neighborhood of the White House grounds It wa egg-rolling day. and the grounds, which are closed to visitors the rest of the year, were open to-day for the benefit of the children. But no grown person could get In unless accompanied and vouched for by a child.

I won't lend you my baby for even a minute." said one mother to a well-dressed young woman. But you can have any of my other children you want. Would you like to borrow Tommy or Susie, or" "Gimme a dime and I'll make out I'm your son." was the formula used by numberless gamins. After getting In the youngsters managed to get out again and repeated the trick. Qucntln Roosevelt and several of his friends rolled eggs and had as much fun as anybody.

He had a toy rabbit and a handful or colored eggs. Mrs. Roosevelt watched the rolling from the back porch of the White House with a number of Invited guests, among them Secretary and Miss Morton, Secretary Wilson, and Mrs. Fairbanks. During the morning hundreds of little ones made the scene merry.

Rich and poor, white and black, were admitted to the grounds on the same footing. The day was delightful, the turf dry and warm. There were vigorous protests when Col. Charles 8. Bromwell.

Superintendent of Public Buildings and Grounds, started to enforce the decision to limit the festivities on the White House grounds from 9 A M. to 1 P. M. The ground were cleared of the crowds, however, the people being directed to the White Lot. Immediately to the south, where the children continued their annual romp during the remainder of the afternon.

The change from the custom of previous years of allowing freedom of the grounds for the whole day was the subject of some sharp criticism. Hundreds, accompanied by children, did not arrive until after noon, and did not conceal their disapproval of the order to leave the grounds. The Marine Band concert was given on the White Lot.
