Household Hints.


One teaspoonful of ammonia to
teacupful of water applied with a
rag will clean silver and gold jewelry.
An egg well beaten in glass OF
milk and sweetened makes a nice
strengthening drink for a teething
child.
A gargle of salt and water used
before retiring at night will strength
en- the throat and keep off bronchial
attacks.
Plaster of Paris is an excellent
material for sealing catsup and fruit
bottles or jars, and is more easily
applied than sealing wax.
White dishes can be marked with
ones own name on the back, with a
common pen and ink, and it will not
wash off for a long time.
Strong muriatic acid applied with
q cloth and the spot washed thor
oughly with water, is recommended
to remove ink stains from boards.
Equal parts of bay rum, borax and
ammonia make a nice preparation
for cleaning the head; apply freely
to the scalp with a brush and then
wash in clear water.
A feather-bed or mattress will re-
main clean and in an excellent con-
dition for years if kept in case
made of common sheeting, which
can be removed and washed at will.
Biscuits can be warmed to be as
good as when just baked by placing
them in the oven dry, covered close.
ly with tin. 1t is a great improve
ment over the old way of wetting
them.
If one wishes to cool hot dish in
hurry, it will be found that if the
dish be placed in vessel full of cold
salty water, it will cool far more
rapidly than if it stood in water free
from salt.
Boiling hot liquid may be safely
poured into glass jar or tumbler
by first putting silver spoon in the
dish. Be careful, however, that a
draft of cold air does not strike the
vessel while hot.
Almost any kind of fruit stains
may be removed by turning boiling
water through the stained part. If
the first trial does not entirely re-
move the stain repeat the operation.
This should be done before the spot
is "set" by the usual method of
washing.
If your iat-irons get rusty rub
them first (while hot) with beeswax,
then put handful of salt on a bit OF
old cotton cloth or coarse paper. and
rub the iron over it hard and fast.
This operation repeated two or three
times will make the rustiest iron
smooth.

The Labelled schooner. Alice Scran-
 ton, at New Haven.
 NEW HAVEN, Oct 6.-The schooner, Alice Scranton, owned in Leete's Island, arrived in this port yesterday afternoon from New York where she had been libelled In consequence of the acts of her captain, c. E. Gurney. who halls from New London. The Scranton, in charge of Captain Gurney, left for Barnegat last week. The captain took the $500 which had been advanced for freight, and appropriated it for his own use. He also borrowed considerable money, even going so far as to pledge the ships papers for $5. In addition to this Gurney ran the vessel into debt for a con- siderable amount, for wages for the ere ~ and other things, Then Gurney, so it is alleged, got drunk and cleared out for parts unknown. The owners said last week that the vessel had been libeled by United States marshal and they sent a man to New York to release the schoon- CT. The expenses nearly aggregated $500. It was found that Gurney had hired a woman from the slums of New York. ostensibly to act as cook and the agent had to pay her SEQ before she would consent to leave. The agent made an effort to get some trace of Cur ney, but was unable to do so. If he can be found he will be prosecuted and it is liable to go hard with him, particularly for illegally diSposing of the vessels papers.

THE nooDLE, TIE POODLE.

A Row I'm the JefferSontRn Meeting
 Over the Distribution of Spolls. Milesy Connolly and Jimmy Doolan have dissolved partnership, and the Jef- fersonian Democratic club will probab ly be heard of no more.
 Yesterday afternoons meeting of the club was succulent one and wound up in a row. Only the sscharter" members of the JeffersonianS were admitted to the meeting and it was evident that the "boys" were determined to receive their share of the spoils or know the reason why.
 After the routine business had been transacted one member more courageous than his fellows took the floor and asked Chief Connolly to explain what dis position had been made of the $250 he had received as hush-money. twelve months ago. Without waiting for a reply the speaker suggested that this | year the poodle be divided before the election took place.
 Connolly tried by denials. promises and threats to smooth the ruffied fur of his erstwhile trusty lienIenants, but his words only added fuel to their rage and the meeting broke up in a row. Doolan, it is said, threatened to do Connolly great bodily injury, but at last accounts both were alive.
 In justice to parties whnse names have been mentioned in connection with the Jeffersonians, we add that none of the dissatisfied second ward democrats were present at the meeting, nor were the Messrs Fruin or their friends. Speaking to a representative of the DEMOCRAT last night a prominent re- publican. who is candidate for office, and who contributed good money to help fan into life the democratic desaffeGtion, said he was disgusted with the whole operation, and added: ''The Jeffersonian leaders received $250 from the republican town commit tee, and $1O0 from E. w. Pinney, the candidate for first selectman. After this afternoons disgraceful meeting of the club l can easily see that the republi- c ms will lose more than they will gain | from such support"

It is a noted and laudahle departure from the carica, lures usually presented as Irish to Amer. ican audiences, and which are re. proach to and calumny on the Irish name and people.
