THE SERVANT GIRL ABROAD.
Mr.. Fitzsimmons Discharges Maggie and
She Gets Even.

Mr.. Fitzsimmons Discharges Maggie and
She Gets Even.
Mr.. John Fitzsimmons has of late had
an experience with a servant girl that
has taught him to be cautious how he
discharges any more in the future. Sew
eral months ago he employed Margaret
HEM, of No. 40 Halliday street, to work
in the kitchen, but soon had occasion to
dismiss her. A couple of nights later the
girl entered the yard n tore up q flower
bed for revenge. She made another visit
soon after and broke two bottles of milk
IN the stone area, which had been left by
the milkman, and her she alarmed the
inmates by ringing the door bell furious
ly. That was her last visit to Eitzsim-
mons, but he heard from her often enough
to suit him.
The girl had a new way to annoy him.
She would employ a lawyer to begin a
suit against Fitzsimmons to recover
heavy damages from him for having
ruined her. The lawyer. as q matter Of
business would W rite to Mr.. Fitzsimmons
to that effect and suggest an amicable
arrangement. After Fitzsimmons re-
ceived half a dozen of these letters
from New York and Newark lawyers,
he concluded that it was time the sport
ended. His wife and family We're being
worried by il. Accordingly he caused q
warrant to be issued and Margaret was
arrested In Newark on Thursday by De-
tectiye Hottie. She fought v~iciously and
made every resistance possible against
being brought to this city, but it was use
less. and today she was arraigned before
Judge Aldridge, owing to the absence of
Judge Wanser.
The Court appeared to think her slight
ly demented and sent her to the County
Jail to be examined by DR.. Converse.

are easily made, after one knows how.
You must conclude how large a 70
settle you want and widen or narrow
your material to suit the size. The
rosette most fancied is just about the
size of a rose, and the material, cut on
the bias, is folded to be an inch wide.
The strip is then gathered and drawn
into shape, it being fastened in that
way on a circle of stiff net. Sew it
securely and do not attempt to plait
it to shape-it must be gathered. One,
two or three rosettes are used,
and the number usually decides
the size. An eighth of a yard of
velvet, cut on the bias, will make one
medium-sized rosette, and this seems
to be that best liked. Amateurs usual
ly err in over trimming a hat or a bon
net so, as straw ones are not SO
troublesome to arrange as those of vel
vet, do not commit this fault. If you
cannot see the really good styles in
any other way, then look at them in
the milliner's window. Read her art,
and marking it, learn and outwardly
initiate. Chapeaux Just tossedn to-
gether always look what they are, and

and time has been shown is the one

A Redroom Fire.

The fire should be made up every
night, at nine or ten o'clock, by plac-
ing four or five pounds of coal evenly
on the top of it over this about
eve pounds of very small coal or
coal dust should be spread, and over
the whole about four pounds of fine
coal ash should be strewed, and pat
ted fiat with the shovel. Such a fire
will burn all through the night with
out any attention, and in the morning
the resulting cake of ash and coal
dust can be broken up, producing a
bright blaze. The addition of a little
fresh coal, with a light strewing of
ashes on the surface, will keep the fire
In throughout the day. 1t is calcu-
lated that by this method fourteen
pounds of house coal and seven pounds
of coal dust or pit screening will keep
a large bedroom at an average tenn
perature Of So degs. for twenty-four
hours. Another advantage is that
almost smokeless fires result. since the
layer of superimposed ashes appears
to filter the smoke which passes
through it, retaining all the particles
of solid carbon.-CasseWs Magazine.

The Wei bred Girl.

A well bred girl thanks the man
who gives her a seat in the street car,
and does it in a quiet and not in an
ELUSIVE way. She does not declare
that she never rides in street cars.
She does not accept a valuable present
from any man unless she expects to
marry him. She doesn't talk loud
in public places. She doesn't shove or
push to get the best seat, and she
doesn't wonder why in the world peo-
pie carry children in the cars, and
why they permit them to cry. b She
does not speak of her mother in a sar-
castle way, and she shows her the low
ing Difference that is her due.
She doesn't ira to be a man and she
doesn't try to initiate him by adopt
ing masculine dress and manners. She
doesn't say she hates women and she
has some true, good friends among
them. She doesn't wear boots with
out their buttons on, or q frock that
needs mending. She doesn't scorn
the use OF the needle and expects to
make clothes for very little people
who will be very dear to her.-Home

one per cent. of the population-nor
is it in any city.
On the other hand, the parks are a
boon to every soul in the community.
Rich and poor alike gain through
them. The former gain handsome To-
cations for their houses; the latter
have pleasant places of resort,
where they and their wives and
children may get pure air, and
innocent recreation in their hours of
leisure. If no other element entered
into the question, this n should de-
cermine it, it seems to us. The boule-
ward scheme is for a limited few of the
Weather class; the parks are for all
the people.
One other important point must be
remembered. The boulevard can be
constructed next year or in five or
ten years as cheaply as now, or
very nearly so. On the contrary,
every month makes the acquire
ment of the vast amount of
land needed for the parks more
and more difficult. Real estate is on
the rise in this county all the time,
and no man can say he sees the limit
of increase. 1t is not unreasonable to
say that the needed land will be
worth fifty per cent. more in ten
years than it is today, and it is quite
possible that it may not be procurable
at any price in unbroken tracts suit
able for park purposes.
The present situation is the out
growth of the atrocious rule of rings
in this county. Even it the present
nefarious combination is not directly
concerned in the opposition to the
parks, the spirit of jobbery begotten
of it is at work. 1t is pretty plain
that the extravaganza Of the Cleve-
land regime has made the raising
of money for both of these
county projects difficult if not
impossible; it now remains to
be seen whether the obstinacy
Of the Freeholders will go SO far as to
subvert the interests of the people in
order that they may have a large
amount Of money under their control.
The people ought to watch the
doings of the precious ten, and deal
with them next election according to
their deserts.
