The Courtesy OF swedish women.

Tho women of the middle and lower
classes are little if at all behind their hus-
bands and brothers IN this matter. Their
good temper and pretty behavior are
worthy of all praise. The servant girls in
Dalecarlian peasant dress, the cafe NAM
selles and the young persons employed in
shops all make the prettiest of all pos
sible bob courtesies, and SO, oddly enough,
do the young ladies of good family up to
the day of their confirmation, which cere-
mony takes place rather later than with
US, generally about the age of 10. From
that day forth they put their hair up and
take to bowling Temple Bar.

Importinr Ready Made Huts.

Many Of the huts which have been sent
to the South Africa gold fields and other
places where portability is important are
made of wire woven waterproof sheets
The sheets are less than half the weight of
twenty-four gauge corrugated iron, for
which they are mainly intended as sub
stitute; and, being composed of stout PAPER
mache, with fine steel wire foundations,
they are excellent non-eonductors of heat

Putting a Smile on a Check of Brass.

Nothing is more annoying about the
home than the sudden and inexplicable
soiling of brass goods. The surface gets
dull apparently without cause, and ever so
much rubbing seems to have no brighten
ing effect. A very simple method of re-
storing the lost luster is as follows: Lay
the soiled article for a few minutes in es-
sence of vinegar containing pinch of salt;
then take it out and rub it in the hands,
dipping them occasionally in the vinegar
When clean, wipe dry with a cloth. In
cleansing tinted goods omit the salt, or dip
in vinegar and brush with red chalk.-New

HIS FUTURE AT STAKE.
"Private" Dalzell Says That Ohio DEM
Ocrats Will Bolt to Ruin Campbell,

Private" Dalzell writes to The EyESrxa
STAR from Caldwell, Ohio, regarding republi-
can prospects in that statea as follows:
1.-The Ohio campaign closes with the assured
promise of a big victory on Tuesday next
The democrats are divided and distracted;
some are for Reemlin. some for Brice, but
mighty few for Campbell
1T is a life and death struggle among them
selves. Should Ohio 60 democratic it makes
Jim Campbell a formidable candidate against
Hill and Cleveland; but should it 60 republican,
farewell, long farewell to all his glory The
anti-Campbell faction know that party sue
cess means personal destruction to them, aud
the war is to the knife and the knife TO the
hllt, and SO Ohio is good for ~, 900 republican
majority this year. Foster, Mckinley and
Poorman. though In districts with big demo-
cratic maiorities, are likely to 60 in, and the
Ohio delegation in Congress will be two-thirds
republican. Twenty thousand democrats who
voted for Campbell last year ami all the repub-
llcans who voted tor him, too, will cast their
solid vote with us on Tuesday, and another
10000 disSruutled democrats viii stay at

The Effect Of the New Election Law
Will Be Awaited With Interest.

ne TLueCJ VI tuc NOW LltCt1Ou Law
Will Be Awaited With Interest.
From The STARS Regular Correspondent
EVANSVILLE, Nov. 8.
Much interest is felt here as to what the
operation Of the new election law will show.
Tomorrow's contest only can satisfy the in
quiry. Here in Prince Georges there will be
probably found losses and gains for both par
ties in the various districts In this (Bladens-
burg) district the democrats will gain from the
fact that many colored republicans are stricken
from the registrars list by the operation of
the law, while in Aquasco, one Of the remote
districts from the cities, the majority Of those
cut off are white democrats, who have been
for years residing outside OF the state, but who
came here regularly to vote, and there the
democrats will lose.
As to the general indications from our end
of the fifth district it must be conceded that
they are favorable to Compton. At the time of
the last election there were many personal
animosities against Compton, individual re-
sentiments based, in many instances, upon dis
appointed hopes for Office. There is q general
apathy among the republicans. Democrats
claim the election Of Compton by 800 major
ity, with 800 majority in Prince Georges, while
the republicans are not giving figures. Bladens-
burg district will probably give Compton .
majority Of somewhere in the neighborhood Of
100.
The Prince Georges circuit court heard q
number of cases of appeal from the decisions
of tho registration officers OF the various dis
tricts last week, almost invariably sustaining
the officers. 4.

The Czarevitch to Visit America.

LONDON, Nov. ga dispatch from St. Peters
burg says that the reluctance of the czarina TO
permit her son, the czarvitch, to make a voy-
age around the world, has at length been over
come by the argument that it would prove a
valuable experience in fitting him for the fu-
ture sovereignty of Russia. The czarevitch
will not. however, visit Constantinople, Athens
being the starting point of his journey. He
will in all probability cross the Pacific after
visiting India and China, and call at San Fran
cisco. 1t is not yet determined whether the
American part of the journey shall be overland

Making Vessels Torpedo Proof.

LONDON, Nov. 3-British naval experts are a
good deal interested in very valuable pro-
lection against the torpedo, which has been
submitted to the admiralty. Its importance
may be estimated from the fact that in some
thing like four minutes the largest battle ship
in the service can be protected from the at
tacks OF any number of torpedoes, no matter
how skilfully they may be directed. The ad-
miralty refuses all information concerning the
device, but certain experts describe it as SO
simple that the wonder is that il never
thought of before. 1t will be submitted to a
final test with the Victoria torpedo, an inven-
ton of young Victoria, n. S. W.man, which is
claimed to possess certain qualities which rem
der it unusually difficult to discern its course.
