CHARLESTON, S. c., Oct Ex-senator
Hampton has written letter to Col Irby,
chairman OF the Democratic state execu-
tive committee, declining to speak at cam
paign meetings ordered at different points
in the state. Senator Hampton announces
his determination to stand by the state
ticket nominated ia September, but urges
both factions to preserve peace at the polls
and refrain from violence. He takes oc-
casion TO say that the charges preferred by
Capt. Tillman against the Democratic state
administration in the recent canvas were
without foundation in fact, and he reafiirms
his perfect faith in the honesty aud integ-
rity of the Democratic state administra-
tions during the last fourteen years. He
thinks that Judge Haskell, the nominee Of
the anti-Tillman faction, has made mis-
take, but protesting that he does not de-
serve the abuse and villifcation showered
upon him in some quarters. Senator
Hampton's letter will not be regarded by
the Tillman faction as a very enthusiastic
Endorsement Of the Tillman ticket.

CHICAGO, Oct. 25 = Six thousand up
turned faces and roar Of applause that
lasted five minutes greeted Speaker Reed
when he appeared upon the platform Of
Battery d last night with Senator's Farwel
and Cullom and Representative Mason ~
escorts. The doors had been closed half

waving Of flags and banners shouts Of
'our next president" were to be heard.
The Speakers Address.
His speech followed on the lines Of those
delivered in other parts Of the state and OF
Iowa On the policy Of the Democratic
element during the recent session, be said
that If the people Of the United States only
knew Of the abuses Of the house of repre-
sentatives they would rise in their might
and insist that the ma jesty Of the men who
represented the sensible portion Of o. ,O00,-
600 people was maintained.
The Democratic policy had been pros
titution of the constitution OF the United
States. Touching tho tariff question he
said that even If the Mckinley bill meant
high prices the latter meant high wages.
The great mass OF wage earners would as
natural result be benefited.

The Irish Envoys

The great demonstration which the
presence of the Irish Members OF
Parliament, evoked in this city last
night, shows how the popular heart
throbs with that of down trodden Erin.
The Parliamentary ENJOYS came to
these shorest o plead her cause a fresh,
and they met with a response
that was only less magnificent
than is the yoke they are struggling
to throw of oppressive. The people
lined the streets from the ferry to the
Heights, and the greatest crowd that
ever assembled in any hall in this city
awaited their arrival at the Rink on
the hill top.
1t is to be said to the credit of the
people of this city that they showed
their faith in their works, and that
the visit Of the two ENJOYS was as
profitable in dollars as it was in patri-
otism.

The Proofs Accommodating.

THE announcement by THE NEWS
that the Ring is showing out of the
sight Of the taxpayers a monstrous
pile of unsettled extravagances which
must, in the near or remote future,
descend like a financial plague upon
the city, finds corroboration in the
everyday turn of events. Last week
the courts ordered that the Free
Library deficiency be made up; and
$50 900, Topped off the tax levies of
last year and this for the purpose of
deceIying taxpayers with a low IA te,
must go to swell next ye ar's tax levy
into undue proportions.
Wednesday evening the Board of Al
dermen were brought face to face with
q $23, 600 deficiency in the elections
appropriation. The 81, 900 appropria-
ton, which the Ring Finance Board
knew to be insufficient to cover the
expenses attending the election had
been exhausted, before the prepare
tions for last Tuesdays election were
sven begun;-and the shortage of
s23, 600 Is the result. Next year there
arc to be a charter election and
q general election, as usual.
The booths and some OF the
pa~raphealia used last week fmay
be employed again and they will
save an expenditure OF probably
5000 at each of the elections. Even
with this allowance each election

-sagacious Depositors.

1t seems to us that the depositors of
the Mechanics and Laborers Savings
Banks are wise in their day and gem
Grafton. The acceptance Of the COM
promise offered by the managers
seems to be the only thing left for
them to do. 1t is pretty hard to take
$12e, 600 for $3.50, 900; but Receiver
Williams, exposition of the surround
ings-showing the financial weakness
OF some Of those who should be re-

some Of the solvent may slip through

hibifs the wisdom of the depositors

under all the circumstances, worth a

While on this subject we may be
excused, too, for stopping to say a
word or two as to Receiver Williams

seem, happily, SO near a elimination.
At the meeting Of Wednesday evening
some OF the depositors saw fit to criti-

THE CHILDREN AT MEALS.
Should They Always be Inflicted
on Guests-Strict Rules
Necessary.

In comparatively few American
homes does the custom prevail OF Civ
ing the children their meals apart
from their parents. Domestic arrange
ments would be sadly complicated
were it common in the ordinary house
hold, as it is in England, to have a
separate breakfast served for the
little ones in their nursery while the
seniors discuss their more elaborate
morning repast in their own sale a
mdlgeT.
Usually and wisely American child
rem eat at least two Of their meais
with their parents, and thus have
what benefit may be derived from
association with older people. 1t is
only when the father and mother fail
to guard against letting the little ones
gradually assume the reins of govern
ment that affairs reach a point which
makes one long to Danish the babies
to the nursery, or even further, II by
such means peace might be secured at
meal times.
Nowhere does the spoiled child APP
pear to worse advantage or make more
OF a nuisance of himself than at the
table. His ~incessant chatter, the con-
slant interruption his appeals for at
tention made in the conversation OF
the older people present, his clamor-
Gus demands for any article of food
which happens to strike his fancy, his
loud protests when his wishes are de-
MED him, his slovenly, often disgust
ing, habits of eating, make the fam
ily meal times a pandeInonium and
penance to the hapless guest upon
whom the youngster has no claims of
affection to render his vagaries anus
ing or interesting.
So long as custom and necessity
render it advisable to have q child at
the same table with its parents, these
should fix upon a plan of action, and
adhere to it. Desiring to have their
children looked upon as comforts and
not as spoil sports, they should en-
force strict obedience, exact quiet at
table, and inculcate stringently the
once honored maxim-of late years
fallen sadly into disuse and disrepute
that little boys and girls should be
seen and not heard. Remembering
how much easier it is to check a habit
at the outset than to break it of after
it is fully formed, the father and
mother should watch their children's
table manners, and repress at once
the carelessness and unpleasant tricks
which seem. possibly through original
sin, to come naturally to most little
folk. The correct handling of spoon.
fork and knife should be taught as
soon as they are permitted to use
these implements, and slovenliness
should be rebuked and held up as a
disgrace. Not least in Importance is
it that the father and mother should,
after due consideration, establish an
outline of diet for the youngsters, and
all ow no divergence therefrom.-HaT-

On Thanksgiving day every Amer
can family makes an effort to dine on
turkey. The turkey, being a gift for
which all Americans should be thank
full, seems especially appropriate as a
Thanksgiving offering. II you are a
town dweller you must secure your
bird from a poulterer; and let me
whisper to you not to rely too i'm
plicitly on his judgment. Tastes diff
fer, and upon this occasion you wish
to suit your own. Some persons pre-
fer a gobbler to a hen turkey, but l
will advise you a hen. The meat is
whittier, sweeter and tender. The bill
and toes should be soft and the flesh
have a blueish-white cast, twelve
pounds being an exceedingly good
weight. The fortunate country
dweller has his own turkeys, or should
have at least, and can mold them at
will. The feed can be so managed
that the meat will be white. tender
and OF a delicate flavor. or the flavor
may be greatly heightened bya change
of diet. Chopped turnips, cabbage
and parsley, varied with corn meal,
boiled rice and chopped celery tops,
impart a peculiar gamey flavor, which
to many persons is very desirable.
This food may be given three or four
days before killing.-Mrs. s. Z. Rorer,
