The Portfolio Clubs Meeting.

The first meeting of the Portfolio Club
for the fall and winter season took place
last evening. at it's rooms in Circle Hall.
Mr.. Thomas E. Hlbben. who is an enthusi-
astic art amateur, exhibited a series of
views of street life in the East Side of New
York city which were highly creditable to
his artistic taste and choice of subjects.
The pictures, thrown upon screen by an
oxyhydrogen light. were wonderfully clear
in definition, due largely to the camera by
which they were taken. the instrument be-
ing the invention of q young Indianapol-
itan, Mr.. Fred A. Hetherington. The views
were taken by Mr.. Hibben in the Hebrew
quarter of the great city. on Hester
street and the intersecting streets of Null
berry. Baxter. Mott Bowery, Christy, Eliza
beth and Ludlow. This quarter is pictur-
esque in it's dirt and poverty, though but a
short distance from the wealthiest part of
the city. This IS the district of rickety
tenement-houses and where the sweating
methods find their victims. Following the
views, Miss Mary Robinson, who will soon
return to New York to continue her studies
at the Art League. read an interesting paper.

the introduction Of dolls into the decora-

figures, artistically dressed in silks and
satins, propelling wheelbarrows full OF
flowers or jumping through hoops of roses.
A brilliant conception was TO represent
tiower-market on the table. each stall be-
ing blled with different flower and pre-
sided over by muslin-capped-and-sproned
dolls with Pompadour skirts Topped UP
over pink satin.
This is terribly childish, but Paris has
originated follies as puerile, the novelty of
the season which has just been imported
thence being artfully contrived cardboard
limitations ofantlque armour, helmets, and
gauntlets, hand cuffs, caskets, swords, and
spears. These are made to open TO hold
sweets or flowers, and being disposed about
the table, interspersed with holly and mis-
tletoee, produce, it is said, an effect never

in view by hostesses.
Very little indication of the extreme
length to which the decoration Of the most
fashionable table is carried Is afforded by
the competitions that still take place Mt the
principal hower-shows of the summer sea-
son. The great guns of the table-decO-
rating business--for it is a business nova

On the whole, it seems as if our modern
dinners, while less bulky than those Of our
grandiathers may be credited with show

THE SUB-TREASURY PLAN.
rfr. sIacune Continues in Behalf of the
Earmors-1ir. Flower Talks Sense.
by telegraph 10 the Dlepatch.l

WASHINGTON. Nav 14.-Mr. Macune, repre-
fenting the Farmers Alliance, tins morning
continued his argument begun yesterday
before the WAYS and Means Committee IN
favor If the Picker bill TO establish sub
treasures for the receipt of agricultural
products. lie was questioned by members
Of the committee respecting the details and
probable effect of the bill.
NJ Bsyne wished TO know if one effect
would not be- TO encourage Oyerproducton.
Mr.. Macune replied that IL would not
for ust as soon as the farmers calling be-
came more profitable than others there
would be IN influx of men into that bust
uess which would result IN "A reaction and
final restoration Of an equilibrium. To
his mind no fixed volume of currency, no
matter how great, would meet the needs
uf agriculture. 1t wanted an elastic me-
dunn. Tho farmer sold his crops IN the
fall when prices were lowest and bought
his supplies before the harvest when
prices were highest. The crops were mar
keted IN two or three months OF the year,
and Tins marketing annually causeda great
birngcncy IN money.
MI Flower feared that the plan would
bad 70 banking on live shOats, iron. lead,
and alver-ore. They were getting along
Low In the latter direction at tho other
rnd of the Capitol Ia time tboy would
have everything I'm hook" In the course
uf ten years the Government would be
yursing the children and the women would
D. working in the fields. The true rene
dy i1r the farmers ills was the mauutac-
trrr3 plan. They should regulate pro-
dle.lon. Raise only enough produce TO
laert the peoples wants and thereby get
ta.r prices.
Mr. Macune proceeded to explain the
process proposed 20 regulate the issue OF
irOduce certificates. lie said that the ne
ce6sitv for excluding the imports OF agrl-
cultural products was obvious II the
quality Of the certificates was 20 be pre-
Served. The certificate would constitute
the soundest and best currency III the
world Probably not half of the fifty
million dollars appropriation asked for to
put the new machinery in motion would DO
fcqured but the sum should not be abso-
lutely fixed at the minimum, as IN time It
would be necessary 20 extend the system
60 include all Of the products OF labor not
covered by patents.
La conclusion, MIR. Macune said that the
National Alliance had not sent out single
printed petition, and that those petitions
and demands now pouring IN upon Con
gress were "a spontaneous ohering OF the
farmers Of the United States who are con-
Vmced that they know what they want and
are going TO have it.
MI. Flower said in comment upon the
argument that the farmer would do well
% manage his domestic affairs without
Government interference that the cur
Tcncy system of the present was wrong.
The Government had not managed 1t
properly and could not do so. 10 mad
Saken from the States the right TO issue
currency, although 1t was itself no Judge
Of the needs of the people. The States
hnd their people were the best judges.
