NO "CAKE-WALK" IN CHICAGO


There was something like Consideration
in local society circles this week over the
announcement that New York's" 400" were
about TO abandon cotllons for the cake

The rumOr has something Of foundation.
Is certain recent festivities at Mrs. samuel

these Southern style promenades. "DXie"

decided that the cake-walk is 10 be the fash
iOnable fad OF the season Of '00'9l. But in
Ill probability this fad will never climb

ADVENTURE OF TWO BRIDES.

week old bridegrOOms had no power To re-

At first the deserted females refused to be
,oothed. They wept and wruug their hands,

cials 10 still their worst fears. When the
chopper assured them it was all right about
the tickets and they might board the next
train, they refused 10 nleddle further with

Old Wine.

The rage for buying old wines is raising
the price 10 an enormous figure, as was
seen at two sales by auction last month.
Now. IL there be one law OF nature which
knows no exception il is that all things
organic are subject TO decay, and wine is
an organic product, and when its ripest
stage is reached and passed the process Of
decomposition begins. You may stave of
decay, for short time only, by alcohol and
other devices, but 1t goes on. Yet when an
''old cellar" is auctioned fabulous prices
are paid for undrinkable wine. In 1855
there was Madeira sale IN Paris, when
fOrty-four bottles were bought by Roths-
child for their weight in gold. The wine was
from the famous 1914 pipe OF Madeira
which had lain at the bottom Of the sea for
thiriy-six years. Now, the antiquity OF
the wines OF the ancients is attributable to
their artificial composition. spices and
fragrant roots and sea water were added to
the pure vintage. The bee. authenticated
stories Of hne old wines that retained their
quality tend to the belief that they were
strongly fortified, Court Journal.

FROM A wELL.KaOwN PHYSICIAN. ,

Or. r. ". BAcBY, a well-known physi-
clan of Louisa county. Va, Bumpass post
Office. under date Of 3D. Feb'y, 1890, re-
ports two severe cases Of scrOiula.
First Case--A lady with hereditary scro-
ftila, afflicted twenty years, discharging
purulent ma ter during these twenty years
through three fistulous sOresfrom the hip
iOint until about six inches of the thigh
bone had been destroyed by liberation.
In Tuuc last she commenced the use OF n.
Il. {. Alternative. Her health rapidly inn
proved. One OF the fistulous sores ceased
TO discharge matter and healed readily.
During the three months following another
sore ceased to discharge and healed as the
first one. The last one has abated half
its former discharge, DR.. Bagby says he
has good ground to hope for her perfect
recovery bya persistent use OF the remedy.
The limb was shortened about six inches
by destruction OF bone before the remedy
was used.
Second Case-A young lady Of the same
family with hereditary scroiula and en-
largement, with liberation of parotid
glands, and many sores on various parts
Of the body, commenced using \. B. {. Al
terative three months ago. All the sores
and enlargements have disappeared, and
the doctor writes his opinion that her per-
feet recovery is only n question OF time
and OF the continued use OF the remedy.

Just and impious" Furthermore, the Con-
federacy once recognized, the states of the
Northwest would detach themselves from
those Of the East, and this new division
would act as IA barrier between the States OF

The question of recognition Is one which
have frequently heard debated in the
course Of my journey. find the people OF
the cities anxious to trust only to their own
resources ready to sacrifice all things to for
ward their cause aud to establish their in
dependence without the concurrence or
intervention Of Europe. The inhabitants
of the rural districts, eaqually willing
10 maintain the struggle 10 the bitter end,
ask why is il that France is 50 slow IN
acknowledging separation. and sanction
ing an independence which really has eN-
listed for three-quarters Of century.
XxXIII.-CONCLUs
In terminating this sketch Of a heroic
people, whose hope and confidence now
centre in France, look forward with
pleasure to the day when the Emperor of
the French will recognize the new Confed
eracy as an independent nation, and the
French will unite with them in treaty OF
commerce and OF friendship, which VIII
draw closer the bonds which should unite
all the branches of the Latin race in the Old

THE CRIMINAL GRIST.
Harry Cramer Pleads Not Guilt,

Harry Cramer Pleads Not Guilty.
When criminal court opened up yes
terday morning Harry Cramer. accom-
panied by Frank Davis, his attorney,
appeared before Judge Lochren, and
the handsome Harry pleaded not guilty.
The court was anxious to have the case
finished as soon as possible, but MIR.
Davis stated that he would be too busy
to try it, and, Furthermore, Cramer
wanted to go. away OH trip. After
considerable argument, the case was
finally set for Jan. e, when the trial will
take place. The former bond was ac-
ceptable, and he departed from the
court room. The attorney is of the
opinion that nothing will be made of
the case.
Thomas Sawyer was to have been
tried for bastardy, but his attorney ap-
peared for him and stated that his client
was at work in the woods and would
not return to the city until some time in
April. He explained that Sawyer had
been on hand at the first call of the case
but the witnesses for the state were not
on hand. 1t had been agreed that he
might go to his work and had done so.
Judge Lochren allowed his case to be
continued under the facts.
john Smith, the young man indicted
for the larceny of quantity of clothing,
which he sold to secondhand dealer,
has had his case continued from time to
time, and when it came to trial there
was no jury to take it up. A long wait
ensued, and finally a compromise was
attempted Oh account of the young
mans family. He finally plead guilty
to petty larceny, as there was some
doubt as to the value of the goods stolen.
The change of plea was allowed and
Judge Lochren gave him sixty days in
the county Jail, after an admonishing
lecture.

FOR NINETY DAYS,
The New Garbage Disposition Plan
to Be Tried That Long.


to Be Tried That Long.
The special council committee on the
garbage question met yesterday after
noon in the health Office and succeeded
in throwing this vexatious problem
after long wrestling. Health Commits
sioner kilvington reported that the
Great Northern railroad would haul all
of the garbage which could be collected
at reasonable price, S. or Sc per car.
He also reported that sufficient track
age had been secured, in convenient
locality, TO accommodate all the teams
and cars necessary to handle the garb-
age. The committee voted tOrecommend
TO the council that this plan of taking
the garbage to Brooklyn for the benefit
of farmers be given trial at least 80
days, and that the proper city officers
be authorized to make all necessary
contracts. The committee will alsorec-
ommend an ordinance fixing the
maximum rate to be charged for remOv-
Ing night soil, cesspool sludge and gar
bage of all kinds. Likewise, the COM
mittee will ask the council to direct the
health commissioner to frame the neces-
sary rules to govern the new plan of
garbage disposition. Mr.. Yaw. BROOKLYN.
who will take care of all the garbage
which the city can furnish, says that
the farmers in his locality are enthusi-
astic over the system about to be inaug-
urated. His only fear is that he will be
unable to get all the garbage that the
farmers will want for fertilizing pur-
poses. The committee desires that the
public understand that no one is COM
PEELED to send garbage to Brooklyn. If
any one desires to dispose of it in any
other way not contrary to the health or
dinances he is at liberty to do so.
