To Invade Mexico.

CHICAGO Oct 27-It is not very often
that the ruler of a foreign nation seeks the
advice and counsel of private American
citizens and is glad to get it. Occasionally
1t happens that the powers that be of some
impoverished South American republic are
ready to welcome and to listen to some
fnanciers from England or the United
States who seek a concession Of some kind
and are willing to come down literally for
it. But in such cases it is generally the
dollars rather than the advice and counsel
that are sought for.
President Diaz. of Mexico. however, is
seeking the opinions and suggestions of
certain Chicagoans and not only that, but
he is anxious to receive them in person.
The ldier-statesman has the faculty of
looking far ahead. He believes, and he
has taken occasion to say SO, that worlds
fairs are great educators, and that they are
of so incalculable a value in spreading
ideas and knowledge concerning the differ
emit nations that no. country can afford
to be unrepresented in any one of them.
And so it was that Mexico was one of the
first to file its acceptance of President
Harrison's invitation to participate in the
Worlds Columbian exposition. But the
mere acceptance of that invitation, how
ever, will not build a Mexican annex ON
the Worlds fair grounds or fill it with ex"
hibits Money must be Forthcoming. Presi-
dent Diaz has been putting on his think
ing cap in relation to this phase of the
question, and has come to the conclusion
that three-fourthS of million dollars will
be about the proper thing.
At the same time that is great deal of
money for him to ask of the people of
Mexico, and he knows it. He appears to
know also that Chicago men are not only
very plausible, very insinuating and very
eloquent, but that they are also first class
hustlers, and that when they go after
thing they generally get it, and sometimes
something extra into the bargain. And so
1t Is that President Diaz has actually found
way of indicating to the Worlds fair
people that he would like to have few of
them invade his territory and stir up his
people to point of enthusiasm, where
they will be willing to produce the sum de-
sired.
The spectacle of party of American citi-
zens, acting directly under the auspices of
the chief executive of sister and foreign
speaking republic, and urging the people
and legislature of that republic to hump
themselves and do credit to the land of
their birth by making glorious display at
the Worlds fair, will certainly be as novel
and interesting as 1t will be rare =.

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

The youngest member of the Worlds
fair board of lady managers is Miss Lau-
rette Lowell, a pretty little brunette from
Arizona.
Costa RIGA will expend 100000 on her
exhibit at the Worlds fair instead of $50,
000a originally intended. The government
has officially applied for AIN acre of ground
on which to erect a building and display
its resources.
The department of state has been in
formed that the Persian government will
permit the export of the products intended
for the exposition at Chicago free of duty,
and that the exhibit will probably aggre-
gate 100000.
Miss Kate Minor, the fourth vice presi-
dent of the board of lady managers, is a
successful sugar planter, assisting her
brother in the management of a plantation
embracing 5000 acres. She expects to ex-
hibit at the fair creole kitchen and an
Acadian settlement.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Light is bad for canned fruit
Never put pickles in jar that has had
lard in it.
Grease may be removed from silk by ap
plying magnesia on the wrong side.
A weak solution of cooking soda will
clean hair brush without weakening the
bristles.
A gargle of salt and water before retir-
ing at night will strengthen the throat and
keep off bronchial attacks.
A perfume lamp which burns cologne
and spreads a delightful scent about the
room is the latest household novelty.
Never sun feather beds. Air them thor.
oughly on windy day in a cool place.
The sun draws the oil and gives the feath-
ers a rancid smell.
If one awakes in the night, as hopelessly
wide awake as if galvanized or electrified
with vital activity, an invariable remedy is
a glass of hot-not warm-water. 1t can
be heated over the gas or over spirit
lamp and slipped while almost at boiling
heat, and one who tries it will find himself
going to sleep like an infant and getting,
too, the most restful and peaceful sleep
imaginable.

THE JEWEL CASkET.

A gold ship on waves of olivines is a new
brooch.
A geranium leaf of green enamel is a
new design for a brooch.
A back comb with rays crowned by
moonstones is a lovely ornament.
The circular pins with fine designs in
black enamel are adapted for mourning.
A diamond heart inwrapped with gilt
tering green serpent is characteristic Or
nament.
A mourning pin that may be commended
is a heart shaped rim of black enamel with
an inner row of pearls.
Cloak clasps of perforated silver orna-
mented with colored enamels are among
the new and pretty things of the season.
Some of the new sleeve buttons are in
teresting. Turbine wheels made of small
jewels of different tints attached to bars
are new design.
Large, round, convex gold single but
tons with dead finish are decorated with
wreath in relief in silver finish, accent
Cated here and there with diamond.
Nothing is probably more useless, or per-
haps it should be said less used, than bon
bon spoon; at the same time they are so
pretty that there is no abatement in their
favor at present
Little square cups Of repousse silver, in
form resembling the paper cups for bis
cults and ices, are intended for the same
purpose. They come in cases, accompanied
by suitable spoons.
Chatelaines for watches are rivaling
queen chains in popularity. Wrought gold
resembling old fashioned twisted brooches
and terminating in two short chains to
hold the watch are produced in numbers.
They are very pretty.
Back combs and hairpins are more popu-
lar and more enriched than ever. Amber
shell sticks never more than three in num-
Der are surmounted by the richest tops in
gold and jewels. One has hoop twined
with green ribbon and diamond flowers.
Within hangs branch of jeweled flowers.

RAILWAY RuMsLEs.

The huge engines lately put into service
on the New Monon haul trains of thirteen
large passenger coaches thirty-five miles
an hour.
An electric railroad from Pasadena to
the summit of Wilson's peak will be one
of the features of the California resort.
The line will reach an altitude of 6,o0o feet,
and will have one tunnel and five or SIX
bridges.
The work of track laying has been begun
on the fourteen mile extension of the Po-
tomac Valley road, portion of the West
ern Maryland from Williamsport to con-
nection with the Baltimore and Ohio at
Cherry Run w. Va.
For the past two years the Wagner Pal
ace Car company has been employing men
who have seen long service in the Pullman
company, and now nearly every important
position in the Wagner company is filled
by former Pullman employee.
On the Lake Erie and Western main
line, not far from Lima, o., is side track
large enough to accommodate seventy-five
freight cars. The track is down on the
train sheet as "Brice," having been named
for Senator Brice, who is also president of
the road.
C.N. Chevalier, recently superintendent
of the New York and New England, has
accepted the appointment of general super
intendent of the government railroads in
Nicaragua, and will have his headquarters
at Managua. The system includes nearly
100 miles of road.
The Jericho, Jaffa and Jerusalem rail
road through the Holy Land is progress
ing very slowly. The Turks are very in
efficient contractors. They perform the
easier parts of the work first, and then n
rainstorm comes along and washes it all
away and it becomes necessary to begin
anew.
The Erie has placed colored porters on
its vestibuled trains between New York
and Chicago, who will attend to the ven
tilation, keep seats, hand rails, ETC., free
from dust, assist ladies and children upon
and off the train, and perform such other
duties as are usually performed by sleep
ing car porters.
A contract has been let to Vermont
firm to construct road from Mann's
Choice, on the Bedford division of the
Pennsylvania railroad, to Brooks Mills,
in Blair county, on the Altoona division of
the same road The distance is about
thirty miles. 1t is said that the road will
be built by private enterprise, but the con-
troll will fall into the hands of the Penn
sylvania.
