BLEEDING THE CLERKS.
Foster Urges Them to Help Out Major Nc
Kinley.

WASHINGTON, September 1.-The de-
partment clerks who were afraid to vio-
late the civil service law by being too
active in politics in way to bring about
prosecutions before the grand jury OF
the District OF Columbia have, during
the past week, received assurances
probably from an "official quarter, as
Jay Hubbel phrased 1t in his celebrated
assessment circular-that voluntary
contributions of time and money will be
welcomed and no questions asked. Men
ton is made at this time also of the de-
lays in fragrant cases OF violations OF
the law which have been as long pend
ing In the Supreme Court Of the District
and the action of Childs and Clabaugh
in the last campaign is pointed to as Sc
curity that violation OF the law will be
winked at.
The excursion Of the Ohio Republican
Association down on the Potomac Mon
day was made the occasion OF an appeal
for funds for Mckinley; and Secretary
Foster is said to have given the clerks
to understand that while they must not
entangle themselves in the meshes or

we're wide, and that it was the duty OF
Republicans in or out of office to give
Of their means to the cause and to de-
vote their annual holidays to the party.
The Secretary, IL is said, spoke of the
great Importance of electing Mckinley
by a decisive majority, and regarded the
fight in Ohio as the opening OF the cam
paign Of 1892. In a carefully thought
ont speech he told the listening office
holders that the civil service law had
tendency to make party towards and
produce mugwumps, and make men
grow careless of party duties. 81 don't
care" said he, 'if man is under the
civil service law; he is still citizen and,
If a Republican, owes allegiance to that
party and should give his money and
his time, when not engaged in public
duty, to uphold it,"

Three Times for State Officers
Knnnnhn Gnnstte.

The ShepherdStown Register has start
ed crusade against three terms for any
State officer, not, as we understandable,
with any special reference to present
incumbentS, but upon general princi-
pies. Most of our Democratic exchanges
who have spoken on the subject at all
applaud the sentiments of the Register,
which makes it look like these mould
ers OF public opinion desire to forestall
any contemplated attempt on the part
of the present force to hold the fort.
Why this move is made just at this
particular time we are not able to con-
lecture. If any Of the present
State officers have ever ex-
pressed a esire to retain their
places for another term, it was In such
low tones of voice as not to disturb the
circumbient atmosphere. The conSti-
tutional inhibition will prevent the
Governor from aspiring to another
term, for four years from the 4th Of
March, 1898, anyway. Two Of our
other State officers have explicitly, un-
qualifiedly and absolutely declined to
stand again, and did so, over and over,
before a word had been said anywhere
by anybody against the third term
principle. We refer to Prof. Morgan,
the present very efficient State SuDerin-
tendent of Free Schools, and Hon.
William p. Thompson, who, as State
Treasurer, has administered the
affairs of that office to the entire salts
faction OF everybody. The scribe has
not had occasion to speak particularly
with Auditor Duffy on the subject. hut
we know his name has been favoraoly
mentioned in that connection, along
with q score of others. 1t may be safely
stated, however, if Mr.. Duffy really de-
sires the place again, he would not con-
tinue his present policy of mastery In
activity while numerous other candl-
dates are securing the woods and scat
tering enthusiasm. Attorney-Gencral
Caldwell is rarely in the city, having
large and lucrative practice elsewhere.
The constitution does not require
him TO reside at the Capital, and
does not pay him enough to justify him
or any one else in giving up his other
business or entering a scramble for
further tenure. But if the assembled
wisdom Of the party in the State should
next year decide that their names on the
ticket would strengthen it, they would
need no better platform than their
former administrations OF the delicate
and important affairs OF their depart
ments. And then some of our Demo
cratic brethren might find 1t inconven-
lent to explain recent illusions.

Col. Darrah's Candidacy.
BrQ1ton Democrat.

Hon. T. NJ. Darrah, of Wheeling,
spent several days here this week. Mr..
Darrah is an aspirant for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Auditor, and he is
well qualified for the position. In 1884
he was a candidate for the same position
and had very strong following in the
convention. After his defeat he showed
his sterling Democracy by an earnest
and enthusiastic support of the nominee.
Among the numerous worthy Democrats
spoken Of for Auditor no one is more de-
serving of support from the party than
Mr.. Darrah. If he should secure the
nomination next year the convention
will make no mistake.

The Eabeas Corpus Revised

A peculiar scene was enacted in the
court house recently, when under a
writ OF habeas corpus a child was pro-
duced by its grandmother, and the
court decided that the father was en-
titled to his offspring.
When the grandmother heard the de-
cision she hastily pulled off the dress
the child wore and said:
''You can have the child but you
can't have her clothes"
A lawyer who was listening said that
the proper legal phrase would have
been, "Habeas corpus, non habeas yes
timenta."

mate Daughter of the Emperor.
New YORK, September 1.-The tragic
story of the suicides of Prince Rudoiph
of Austria and his mistress, Marie DE
Vetzcra, is supplemented by an exceed
ingly interesting letter from former
member of the Austrian Court. he
writes to the New York World as fol-
1.-THE Baroness asserts that the young
people did not become acquainted with
one another until 1883. Unfortunately
however, for Nine. de Vetzera she came
with her daughter to London at the
time of the Queens Jubilee, June, 1857
for the express purpose OF assisting tne
young girl to meet her imperial lover.
During the time that the ArchduKe
spent in London he passed every spare
moment with young Marie Vetzera'
and was frequently seen and met Walk
ing and driving in her company.
Grown Princess Stephanie had oeeh
invited by Queen Victoria to accompany
her husband to London, but she re-
Trained from so doing when she discoy-
cred that the Vetzeras were to be IN
England at the time. The intimacy OF
the Crown Prince with Marie Vetzera
was known to the King and Queen OF
the Belgians, to Crown Princess Ste
phanie and Madame De Vetzera herself
full year before the latter declares
that the Prince made her daughters
acquaintance.
"Cold-blooded lntriguante and selfish
as / know the Baroness to be, doubt
whether she would have been soanxlous
to prove her ignorance of her daugh-
ter'S intimacy with the Crown Prince
had it been merely an ordinary liason.
Baroness Vetzera, although exceedingly
small, under FIVE feet high, was, in her
young days, famous for her exquisitely
formed figure, for her classcally cut
features, her superb black eyes and her
lovely mouth. Her complexion was
very clear though very dark. She was
born at Constantinople, and is Levan-
tine by birth, with all the drawbacks OF
character as well as the captivating
graces of the women Of the East. She
and her family were never received at
court. They were indebted for their
position at Vienna to their connection
with the sporting element OF the arts
tocracy. In Vienna the Baroness was
held in bad repute.
1.-THE question as to whether there
was not a strong resemblance between
her daughter Marie and the Empress
was favorite topic Of discussion in the
Vienna saloons. The totally unwar-
ranted rapidity of diplomatic promotion
of Nine De Vetzera's husband, and the
remarkable Indifference which he dis
played towards his wife gave color TO
the belief that Marie was the illegiti-
mate daughter Of the Emperor.
with regard to the role which Nine.
De Vetzera ascribeS in her story to the
Countess Marie Darish, the niece OF the
Empress, l am inclined to believe that
she has not been painted any blacker
than she deserves. Her blood is bad.
She is the daughter of the Empress
Elizabeth's brother, Duke Louis, of Ba-
varla, and Of his Morganatic wife,
ballet girl or circus rider. The Coun-
tess extravaganza led her to find money
in questionable ways.

similar to those now in use, consists in
mixing measure of the milk to be

slightly tapered to fit into square
hole in the center of the whirler. The
shaft turns in block at the side and

the top of the table. A small pulley on
the shaft is connected by band with
the wheel at the left, turning on bolt
through the leg of the table. Ono turn
of the wheel makes about ten of the

making two crosspieces, and still
further by a continuous wheel. The
cost of the machine is about fifty cents.

A COMMON EXPERIENCE.
Complaints of Young Housekeeper Re-
garding Culinary Failures.

"My life," writes a young house
keeper, "is made up OF succession OF
culinary triumphs and failures" Al
most any careful old housekeeper
might say that, though with one who
has taken pains with her cookery for a
score of years the failures would be
likely to be few. The old housekeeper
has learned where recipes won't allow
themselves to be trifed with, and
where they can be varied without spoil
ing the result She has mastered the
art of delicate manipulation and
learned how to put things together to
insure the best outcome. Her cookery
is continuous series of delicate expert
ments, in which the quality and poten-
cy of each contributing element must
be taken into the account or she can
not be sure what she will have as a re-
ward for her labors In breadmaking,
the yeast must be just right, the flour
ditto; due quantities of salt and short
ening must be added, il shortening is
used at all; the degree of heat at which
the sponge is kept and the dough after
it is kneaded are of importance; the
fermentation process must be watched
at every step, and not be admitted to
advance beyond or stop short of cer-
tain stage; the oven must be
just right; the baking pro-
cess must be conducted perfectly
and if all these stages are rightly car
ried through, then perfect loaf crowns
the toll 1t takes pains to make good
bread-pains ana watchful care. And
the same is true of cooking potatoes
perfectly, Of making an excelsior cup
of tea or coffee, Of boiling steak, Of
compounding a loaf of cake or whole
some pie. To get up dinner with
half dozen different dishes and have
each perfect of its kind, all done to q
turn and ready to serve at certain
hour in good style, requires as much
intellectual exertion as does the dem.
onstration of theorem In geometry,
the writing Of an essay, or the render
ing from foreign tongue into racy
English. Like Antony in his Grafton
over the dead body of Cesar, the cook
can say with him: 'My heart is in the
coffin there with Cesar" or its equiva-
lent: "My heart Is in the oven with the
roast, In the kettle with the potatoes,
In the steamer with the pudding"
and the heart of the successful cook
stays with each separate dish until fire
and skill have done their work upon it.
Skill in cookery requires long and
patient apprenticeship. 1t is one thing
to get good meal occasionally, to
make perfect loaf now and then; but
she who sets every day uniformly
good, wholesome nutritious, appetiz-
ing table has cultivated her culinary
talents until habit renders success easy

A North Carolina Husband Who Stood Up
for His Pretty Wife.
Back in the North Carolina mountains
the student of customs may still find
material for research. The most unique
are the kissing games which still cling
to the soil. A lot of big-limbed pow
erful young men and apple checked,
buxom girls gather and select one Of
their numbe as master of ceremonies.
He takes his station in the center of
the room, while the rest pair off and
parade around him. Suddenly one
young woman will throw up her hands
and say:
Pm a-pinin'."
The master of ceremonies takes 1t up
and the following dialogue and interlo-
cution takes place:
miss Arabella Jane Anthrop says
she's a-pinin'. Whatsis Miss Arabella
Jane Apthrop a-pinin' fur?"
I'm a-pinin' fur sweet kiss"
miss Arabella Jane Apthrop says
she's a-pinin' fur sweet kiss Who
is Miss Arabella Jane Apthrop a-pinin'
fur sweet kiss frum?"
'T'm a-pinin' fur sweet kiss from
Hugh Waddle" (blushes, convulsive
giggles and confusion on the part of
Miss Arabella Jane Apthrop at this
forced confession). Hugh Waddle
walks up manfully and relieves the fair
Arabella's "pinin'" by smack which
sounds like three-year-old steer draw
ing his hoof out of the mud.
Then young man will be taken with
sudden and unaccountable ''pinin', "
which, after the usual exchanges of
questions and volunteered information,
reveals the name of the maiden who
causes the ''gnawin' and 'pinin'."
She coyly retreats outdoors, only to be
chased, overtaken, captured and forci-
bly, compelled to relieve her captor's
distress.
At one of these entertainments,
which 1t was the narrator's fortune to
attend, there was remarkably beauti-
full young woman who had been mar.

Some of the most conspicuous effects
that may be realized from group.
ing and placing trees are: 1. The for
nation of distinct groups Of the various
species and varieties. 2. Planting ever
greens with q view to forming dis.
tinct winter scenery. 8. To gradually
blend evergreen and deciduous planta-
tions by pleasing connections. l. To
place certain trees in conspicuous posi-
tions. 0. To plant with reference to
individual beauty, as also with regard
to the resulting from combination Of
forms. 9. To produce pleasing sky
outline to all heavy masses or distinct
groups. Z. To plant with regard to
autumn coloring and the introduction
of towering trees. All of these effects
may not be obtainable on the lawn,
but judicious selection and planting
will combine considerable number OF
them. Judd Farmer.
