questionably SO produced, and the whole

How Lace Is Washed.

The washers of nice lace form class of
expert labor quite by themselves, and few
people have any idea of the amount of
labor involved in the cleansing operation,
and OF the skill and knowledge required.
This labor, of course, comes in chiefly in the
drying, for the washing is but simple
thing in comparison. A table is cushioned
and covered closely with spotless cloth,
and on this the lace is stretched with an in
tricate care that is amazing; through every
mesh pin is placed to hold it in place.
and the whole tracery of the pattern is thus
pricked out till every leaf and spray and
sprig is firmly fastened so that it can not
shriyel or contract, whole day being
sometimes used up in preparing single

lifted of soft and perfect and unimpaired

MAX O'RELL'5 IDEAS.

Extracts from tho Bright Frenchman's
Book ON brother Jonathan.
If good style consists in not doing what
the vulgar do, good style in America ought
to consist for one thing IN wearing no dia-
monds-unless democracy should demand
the sign of equality. Diamonds are worn
by the women OF fashion, the tradesman's
wife, shop girls, work girls, servants-all
the womankind. Ii you see STABILITY
dressed woman who has not pair In her
ears, you may take it for granted that she
has put them in pawn. Naturally, in
America, as elsewhere, all that sparkles is
not diamonds.
There is pronounced childish side TO the
character Of all Americans. In less than a
century they have strdden ahead Of all the
nations OF the Old World; they are aston
ished ut their own handiworl1, and like chill
dren with splendid toy of their own man
ufacture in their hands, they say to you:
Look, just look, is 1t not beauty" And,
indeed, tic net is that, for him that will
look at 1t with unprecedented eyes, the
achievement is simply marvellous.
Should minister indulge in unorthodox
theories in the pulpit, the Eastern man will
content mself with shaking his head and
going TO another church to perform his de.

American hospitality is princely. You
are not often invited, even in houses where
the daily menu is OF the most appetizing, TO

America suffers from this state Of things.
The country's genius, instead of consecrat-
ing all its time to the production of works
which would tend to elevate the ideas and
aspirations of the people, Ia obliged 10 think
OF money-maklng.
10 the American woman the diamond In
not an object of luxury, it is an object of
prime necessity An English old maid
would do without her tea before an Ameri-
can woman would go without diamonds.
The wel-bred American is to my mind a
happy combination of the Frenchman and
the Englishman, having less stiffness than
the latter and more simplicity than the for
mer.
The character of the American is English
from the fact of view OF its contrasts and
contradictions, which are still more accentu-
ated in him than of the Englishman.
This necessity for being rich is the re-
verse side of the moral in America, where,
more than anywhere else, talent without
money is useless tool.
The American may be eccentric, or what
you will, but he is never monotonous.

Philadelphia gas was forced down to 34z on

Without an exception. the financiers inquired
of yesterday reported money abundant with no
change in rates. only a little hardening. Un-
like Chicago, Pittsburg has surplus, amount
ing probably to sl5,0O0000. This is sufficient
guarantee against local stringency, unless the
Eastern furry should become chronic, OF
which there is not even the shadow of proba-
bility. Indeed the pressure is already easing
up, and it will disappear altogether in snort
time, when the large amounts of money DIS

In further explanation of the stringency in
New York, a cashier remarked yesterday: Il

there were twice the amount of money in clrcu-
lation that there is. 1t was gotten up purely
and simply to bear the stock market. There is
q clique of operators on Wall street who work
this racket every year. They want to buy GER
tain line of stocks at a very low figure, and to
carry out their purpose they get out the cry OF
tight money, under the influence of which
stocks tumble, and they get what they want at
their own prices. Money then mysteriousy be-
comes plentiful again, the cry of stringency
ceases to be heard, and things move on as be-
fore"

~ do not know that they are in collusion with
the clique of operators alluded to, but they may
be. 1t is easy for them to square the money
market almost any time by gathering in their
call loans. These have been called in largely
within the past few days to enable them to
make rosy statements to the Controller of the
Currency. This is probably one of the main
causes of the stringency."

WAR ON THE GAMBLERS.
The Mayor of New Orleans Orders All Pool
and Poker Rooms Closed.

and Poker Rooms Closed.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.l
NEW ORLEANS, October 8. - Mayor
Shakespeare has instructed the Chief of
Police to close all gambling saloons, turf
exchanges, pool and high ball poker rooms
tonight. The Mayor has been try
ing for some time past to get the Council to
take some definite action in regard to
gambling, he himself favoring the license
system, which he inaugurated when Mayor
eight years ago. The Council would not
consent to this, however. and at its late
meeting ordered him to strictly enforce the
anti-gambling law, as a number of COM
plants have lately been made that minors
were allowed to gamble, especially at the
Turf Exchange and pool rooms.
As ali the gambling establishments are
well known, there will be no difficulty in
closing them. The Mayor has submitted to
the District Attorney the question whether
bookmaking is gambling or not. If an
affirmative answer is received, he will pre-
vent any bookmaking at the winter races.
