An Eal.er,. LItsrarr comfort..

Mrs. Mary Mapes Dodge is one OF
those wise literary women who believe
that II a woman must work with the
pen she should be surrounded with all
possible conveniences. And Mrs. Dodge
certainly has the comforts. Finding
that ideas would often come to her when
her assistant was away from her, and
wishing TO save herself the manual labor
of writing it down, she purchased a pho
nograph. Now, when an idea strikes
Der at home, she simply talks it to the
photograph. and when her ste~nographer
comes it is taken from the machine, re-
called 10 the author and she Celebrates
it by dictation. Her library center table,
at which she sits to read, has n tall lamp
built in the middle, n deep, easy chair
at one side and a bookstand underneath
built around the legs. Writing mate
rails are convenient, within reach, and
altogether the editor Of st. Nicholas does
not exert herself any more han is ALSO
lutely necessary in her work. And she
is right. for by saving her physical
strength she adds to her mental capaci-
tics. Few women are so diplomatic,
however, but then few literary women
ON the other hand, can afford such time
saving convenience New York Letter.

There is hardly a=y problem which a
refined householder faces SO hopelessly
as the summer fireplace. The gorgeous
mechanism of open work iron which the
stove man leaves there to take the place
of the CRATE cannot be endured. It is
better TO leave the CRATE in its place to
tell the story of cheerful fires that were.
But the CRATE hopelessly gathers dust.
The SCOT sits down from the unused
chimney and blows into the room. and
it is altogether an untidy arrangement.
In the country a pleasant way of settling
this problem is 10 W the CRATE screen
with boughs of balsam FIR, which dries
and fills the closed room with tho faint,
fresh fragrance Of the forest.
An easy way is to use a CRATE screen.
Such n screen in bamboo, hung with
shirred silk, will cost 81 or s.. In an
elaborate white and gold parlor probably
the hest way Of settling the problem is
to use q white and gold screen, hung with
a panelo handsome embroidery in Louis
XIV nbSonwork or any decorative needle
work. such o screen may cost from S25
upward. a hanging of mating, fringed
at the lower edge and painted with n
fireplace and crane, ispretty in n country
parlor. A blooming flower pot Of
begunias will sometimes thrive in such a
place in the room and fill mp the space
with beauty. a jardiniere placed before
the fireplace and filed with ferns is sure
to grow IL well watered.-New York

ANOTHER TLADUCT
PONED

Viaduct agitation has taken upon itself
a new phase. Citizens interested in prop
erty lying west OF Ferguson street are
now anxious for the location OF a yiaduct
on Themes street. While recognizing
the necessity of constituting a viaduct
across Central avenue they feel that bust,
ness houses west of Ferguson street will
be too far removed from it to make con
venient transfers of goods between them
and the South Side. After the Central
avenue yiaduct is built the Union Pacific
will have the legal right to monopolize all
the street crossings leading to the South
Side and the only outlet in that direction
provided the citizens of the west end will
be the underground crossing at Snyder
street. The inconvenience nov expert
enced in getting across the railroad tracks
will only be : -Jnted- and aggravated as
time goes on.
As arrangements have been made for
the construction OF the Central avenue
viaduct it would perhaps be well to wait
and see what degree of relief may be
afforded by it before taking any serious
steps for the construction of other VIA.
ducts. but 1t must not be overlooked thai
the property owners west of Ferguson
street are naking no unreasonable de-
nsnds and their public expressions
should receive serious consideration from
the cisy council.

A Coed Appointment.

Last Friday Gov. Co mpbell sent
the following appointment 10 the
Senate for confirmation:
F.P Mageo, of Vinton county,
to be trustee of the Athens Lunatic
Asylum, for the unexpired term
ending on lhe 1st Monday OF April
1893, vice j. w. Delny. retired.
The Democrats of V,nton county
are iubilant over this appointment,
not especially because it retires
Capt. Delay. but for tie reason
that the Board of Trustees will
now get together and do some ne
cessary work IL the interests of
Democrats. 1t Is beloved that a
new Steward will now be agreed
upor. aud other appointments made
somewhat dependent on the loca-
ton of the Stewardship.-McArth-
ur Enquirer.
We most heartily endorse the
appointment of Frank Magee. He
is one of the reliable Democrats Of
Vinton. a man of good judgment
and in every way capable to fill
the Office 10 which be was appointed.
Mr.. Magee is a brother-in-law W
of DR.. Wright of our city and has
many personal friends here who
will Join with US in approving his
annointment.

There is No War on the Hooking.

has already taken place. and the

is likely to follow. Nov. boys,
Ii will be waste of am

and turn your guns on Purcell

There is no particular war we
know of, as referred 10 by our
Macarthur brother. The Senii-
mel fights the Republican enc
my, regardless of Guerillas and
uessians, or the bastard protoSes
of Sands, Rempel & Co. Let us
tell you 4 little story in Vinton
county politics. 1t will. perhaps
enliven you. Some years ago
the Republicans concluded TO
make a fight to capture Vinton
county. The word that Vinton
was doubtful reached the ears OF
Alex Sands, the monumental
lobbyist, and he came on the
field and surveyed the situation.
His advice was not to spend anv
money in trying TO carry This
election" but put up two thous'
and dollars to stait a new DEM
ocratic paper, which We can con-
troll. 1t will cost less and once
We get the county officers We
are all right thea. The result
was that a new Democratic pa
per was started. A fellow by
the name of Entler was made
editor and proprietor He run
his paper about two years. De
succeeded in having the Repub-
licans elect every man to oftire
In the county, except Pat CaLty.
The miserable wretch ran off with
a strumpet, and has not been
heard of since. Sands and Rem
pei may know of his whereabouts
and may need him for their pur-
pose in Hooking. The bastard
sheet died. The result is that
Vlnton is again Democratic. Will
our brethren of the Macarthur

DEATH OF SENATOR BECK.

Las. Saturday our country re-
ceiyed another of these fearful
shocks which have been so sadly
familiar within late years, ana
which are convincing proofs that
death, the great leveler of humans
ity. is not respecier of PERSONS
The person who opened his news
paper TO read the current events OF
the day was startled 10 find promI-
pent headlines announcing the
death of United States Senator
James G. Beck. The news was EN-
tirely unexpected, as no serious I'll
ness or symptoms of such had been
announced. and as far as the world
knew, the distinguished gentleman
was in robust health. Heart dis
ease, with its characteristic sudden
ness, did the dreadful work, the last
summens coming when Mr.. Beck
was IN the Baltimore ard Potomac
Railroad depot, at Washington
where he had just alighted from the
train from New York.
Mr.. Beck was born in Dumfries
shire, Scotland, February IL, 1877
and received an academic educa
ton in the country of bis birth. In
early life he came to the United
States, locating in Kentucky, and
in March, lS4G, graduated as u law
yer ct Transylvania University,
Lexington, in which city he prac-
ticed law. HIS 6rst call to public
Office was " hen he was elected a
member Ct the 40lh Congress, and
for four successive :e. ms he served
his State in the capacity OF Repre-
sentative. After this he was called
up higher, and was elected to the
1U. s, Senate to succeed j. w. Ste
venson, taking his eeat March D.
1877. since which time he has re-
mained an hohored member of that
body.
Mr.. Beck was one of the most
distinguished statesmen of the pre-
sent day, being we'll known both IN
this and other lands ior his master
lIy defence of the principles OF good
government. He was an arden'
Democrat, and will be sadly missed
in the party councils. Though for
eign bern, he was one whom oul
country was proud to honor, ant
we echo the sentiment of millions
when We express our sincre desire
for many more such men, for w
feel sure that their works woult
place our country upon pinnacle
of greatness which even she ha
never occupied.

Weldy throughout the State. as

ney. As a representative OF this
county he held a commanding
place in the Ohio Legislature.
He is a Democrat. If nominated
he can be elected.
