the organization understands the rules and rcgula-

help wondering why he allowed himself TO be elected
under the circumstances. lie could not have for

Meade City Marshal Lusk and all the other members
Of the party In Democratic offices VIII want 10

should be kept out II Judge Smith is admitted.
1t has been suggested By way OF explanation that
in having himself elected executive member as well
chairman OF the District Association, Judge Smith
simply sought to demonstrate his power In the
XXth District and that he will resign both places
In @ few days. No one. however. who represents
the Judge has ventured TO indorse this explanation.

The Republican leaders here not bit worried over
Mr.. McKane.
Collector Hendricks bears the great burden OF his
Custom House duties with apparent ease. lie never
seems TO be worried and II is almost impossible ever
TO find his serenity disturbed. The evenness Of his
temper together with his excellent business habits and
thorough political trimming, enables him to get along
with far less trouble than most men in the Office

Abolish The Menu Gard.
IT is NRvKR NEEDED AT A PRIVATE DINNI

IT is NEVER NEEDED AT A PRIVATE DINNER.
The charm Of private dinner, says
the New York Times, is simply that it is
private. Why, then, allow its charms
and sscredness be destroyed by anything
so obviously brought into existence by
the people and for the people as the
menu? A menu is a "bill of fare" The
use OF the French word is an atfectation
that language, however, lends itself to
the cause Of cooks, as we'll as 1t does to
that of courts. When the foreign word
appears at the top of the card in place Of
the English one the affectation continues
through the list. Soup, is bouillon, con-
somme, puree, potage. A common stew
is ragout. One from meat or game or
fish, already cooked, is salmi. Side
uishes are entrees. A pie is vol-au vent
or pate. Besides dishes are la this or
that, according to their preparation and
ingredients. Thus are our dishes dis
guised. In adopting the masquerade we
pay tribute to French cooking, which is
at once the most delicate and economical
but we enlighten only few in the funda-
mentals Of gastronomy.
The menu, then, is only the list OF
dishes to be served at any one meal; its
object is manifold-primarily 1t suggests,
allows choice and expedites the bust
ness of feeding. 1t is of use when one
pays; price can control ones choice and
ones portion, hence the necessity for a
variety being furnished by servant OF
the public. 1t is in its place on steam
boat, at hotel, in the restaurant or eat
ing house, and there it should remain.
Its motto should be "Pro bono publico."
For none of the reasons given, nor for
any that can be imagined, should 1t be al
lowed to show its brazen face amid the
flowers, cut glass and silver of home
dinner. In using the menu the private
dinner is reduced to the unflattering level
of a e-lunch counter; whatever is on
the list of both Is given away to guests.

What Lady Sees in the Newest Style of
Work and Fashion.

The stork lends itself as a model for
button-hooks.
Very dainty are the solid silver scallop.
ped butter shells.
Tbr taste for miniature watches and
time-pieces is at its height.
The turquoise was never more popular
than at the present time.
Quite new IN brooches are heart-shaped
amethyst ones encircled with pearls.
Very new and very handsome are the
monogram letter clips In solid silver.
The present fad in paddock bracelets is
for those having either heart-shaped or
square locks.
Girdles continue in fashion. q favorite
kind being copies of those worn in medi-
cyal times.
Novel scarf pins are mounted with
finely enamcled miniature heads In square
diamond settings.
The very latest in photograph frames
are those that show combination OF
tortoise shell and silver.
The very prettiest paper weights arc
silver see saws on the ends OF which are
placed pretty little Viennese bronzes.
Tiny balls encrusted with diamonds
and set as scarf pins and sleeve links are
extremely popular among gentlemen.
The long chains Of twenty odd years
ago have returned to us and with them
comes the old slide chain with jewelcd
slide.
1t is fact beyond dispute that coral is
again fashionable. One sees 1t in scarf
pins and brooches bordered either with
small diamonds or pearls.
In much Of the new jewelry diamonds
and pearls have changed places, pearls
forming the piece de resistance Of the or
naments and the diamonds serving as an
enhancement OF their beauty.
Tho watch is making itself quite at
home in all sorts Of odd places. We find
1t in umbrella handles, the tops Of ink
stands, in calendars and hidden away in
the heart OF rose pendants.
A convenience for the smoking room is
the self-adjusting lamp in silver. 1t
comes in various forms, in all OF which
the arrangement is such that the light re-
mains always at the top in whatever
position the lamp may be held.
A convenient novelty which appeals to
both sexes is silver case for elevated
railroad, bridge, ferry and Car tickets.
This case can be carried in the vest pock-
ct or worn as n pendant from the watch
chain. 1t is quickly operated by a
thumb-picce slide, which throws the
ticket into the hand. The beauty OF this
ornament is that 1t can be worked with
7 out removing the glove or even taking
the case from the pocket. Elsie Bee in the

The House.

The house committee on corporations
and the general judiciary committee OF
the senate were up until almost 3 O'Clock,
Friday morning, hearing argument for
and against the Burdick pipe line bill,
after which the committee went into
secret session. This body was not long
in coming to the conclusion that the
friends of the bill had failed to present a
good case and consequently the measure
was returned to the house with mega
tive recommendation.
Among the bills introduced were these'
BY Marshall, Allegheny, appropriating
$4,000 to the news boys home at Pitts
burg; by Muehlbronner, Allegheny, to
prohibit the sale of adulterated foodj by
Mccullough, Allegheny, to establish bet
ter uniformity Of game laws. This is the
