HOW TO SET A TARTE
DeImonico Tells How Table Should
Re Set and Arranoed


LEARN first" says Delmonico in an ar
ticle in the Ladies' Home journal, how
to set table. "a round table is better
than a square table, if the dining-room is
large enough to permit it. II not, then
the ordinary Oblong extension table must
be used. The round table is much more
preferable and easier to seat people at,

for example, still uses that style Of dim

dinner-Set may be placed to the best adj
vantage. Mrs. August Belmont, on the
contrary, prefers an oblong table, and the
decorations tor an elaborate dinner are
carried out to make the shape more pro-
nounced. Flowers should never be alb
sent from the dinner-table. No matter
how homely, they add to the picturesque
ness OF the feast.

How Red Hal, is Colorod.

a well-known physician, who has
made human hair a study for years, de-
livered an interesting lecture on red hair,
says the Philadelphia Record.
1.-The great Italian painter, Titian'' said
he, was so fond OF red hair that he raved
about it, and at one time he is said to
have offered to sell his soul to the devil
provided his hair would turn red. This
passion for red hair has ragged fiercelv
since early times. About every eight
years red hair comes i'll style, and the
bellies try To color their hair in conformity
to the prevailing style. They often use
poison, and that's where we come in. At
one period in history, however. red hair
was the subject for universal scoffing,
and one old poet wrote of girl who
Tilted him:
Malicious fame reports her hair was red
That she snloothed it with a comb of Lead

of the pigment accumulated in the cells
of the medulla. In other words, there

1t is said that a great manufacturing
company in Massachusetts recently paid
their workmen on Saturday evening 700

following Tuesday 40 of these marked
bills were deposited in the bank by the
saloon-keepers of the town. Four thou

from the hands of the workingmen on
Saturday night and Sunday, and left
them nothing to show for this great sum
of money but headaches and poverty in

Five Enormous Buildings Intended for
Private Residences, but Unfit.
A morning contemporary announces
as matter of news that Mrs. Hopkins
Searles offers her residence on Califor-
MIA street for sale. 1t might have add
ed, as a companion item, that the Pill
grim Fathers had landed on Plymouth
Rock There has been no time for
many years that the Hopkins mansion
on California street has not been for
sale, though, If public rumor be be-
! lieved, the owner has not been distract
ed by many offers to purchase. 1t is,
in fact, difficult to conceive who could
want to become its possessor at any
price.
The spectacle of Mob Hill, with pala.
tial piles crowning its ridge, fills the
stranger who visits California with mild
amazement. There are five big build
ings there which were built as private
residences, and are as unfit for that use
as could be conceived. They were APP
parently modelled on the plan of the
palaces of the Old World, which were
erected to be the homes of feudal
barons and all their retainers In the
middle ages every nobleman supported
swarm of dependents. He had to
find quarters for them, and of course
his lodgings had to be large. In our
day rich men do not maintain much
larger households than their neighbors.
Individually they cannot occupy
more than dozen rooms. and as many
will lodge all the servants they can EN-
ploy. More rooms than this are of no
possible use Conceived in ostentation,
their destiny is TO become lumber clos
cts. In the old feudal castles of Europe
the modern possessor is lost it gives
him a nightmare to wander through a
maze of rooms which are never occu-
pied save by mice and spiders, and he
fees to take refuge in a bedroom and
parlor at club or hotel 1t must be
much the same in the mansions of Mob
Hill.
If they have any destiny it must be
to become some day public buildings
museums or hospitals. Even for that
use they would have to be donated by
their owners, for the city could build
suitable edifices for less money than
they would cost If they were bought.
1t seems odd that men with the sa-
gacity required to build a transconti-
mental railroad and to acquire vast
fortunes should not have understood
that house that is too big may be as
inconvenient as a house that is too
small A very small quantity of shell
ter is all that the richest and greatest
of us can want. A bedroom, a dress
ing room, a reception room, parlor, a
dining room, a library, and perhaps a
billiard room-what more than this can
Cresus occupy, though he counts his
riches by the hundreds of millions.
Yet rich men go on piling stone upon
stone and bricks upon mortar until
they have exchanged what might have
been a snug home for a barrack; and
in the doing of it they generate mass
of envy and grudging which follows
them to their grave. San Francisco

SALEM MANUFACTURES.
Three Carloads of Cleaners and Sepa
ratOrS Shipped by a Salem
Firm.

The manufacture Of warehouse
grain cleaning machinery and grlst-
mill separators is an important
branch of industry at the big agri-
cultural works of which Thomas
Holman is proprietor, Three cars
were shipped out this morning
holding about four thousand dollars
worth Of fmachinery, that is equipped
with shafting, hanger, pulleys and
boxing, ready to be set up. The
destination of these large machines
was Siverton, Forest Grove, Nc
Minnyille, Mckee and Amity. Mr..
Holman accompanied the load with
II force of men to set them up. These
works have OF ders for nearly train
load of machines of different kinds
which are turned out as fast as
skilled labor can do it. The growth
of this business is very rapid, and
under Mr.. Holman's enterprlsing
management is a credit to the

when Marshal Mimic looked over
the Jail in the evening he found a
man on top of the cells. He called
him down and found he had an axe
and big pocket knife and had
worked a square bole into the brick
wall to get outside. Jack Cooper,
an Intermittent Jail bird was help
ing him. The two had been into
the Office and got the axe, and had
a fair way to get out. There was
about $40 in the Jail office and a
watch. If they had not been de-
tected they would have been out be-
fore morning. Dutfie was put III
the dark cell as reward for his
enterprise, and may be dealt with
more seriously.

NEW FIRE ALARM SYSTEM.
salem Getting a Good Local Fire
Alarm Bex Connection.

A Salem man who had $50, 900
fire says: "I'd have given S20,O0O
on the spot if the engines could have
been promptly at my fire that
night" That expression gives some
idea of the value of a good fire
alarm system
Without being aware of it our
city is getting good start for a fire
alarm system, aud that too without
paying big royalty to some eastern
patent-right concern, such as tried to
work Salem for about thousand q
year few months ago.
Walter j. Holman, the new engi-
neer of the Capital engine, showed
JOURNAL reporter through the en-
gine house today. The. electrical
connection, gong, and lighting wires
nave all been overhauled with a
view to getting in good fire alarm

loose. A second battery of eight
carbon cells works all the connec-
ions to the engine, annunciator and
iig gong that sets the horses to
bounding, they naying no attention
to the first alarms and gougs up
stairs. a third battery of five cells
works the night bells in the drivers
and engineer s rooms upstairs. The
horses can only be turned loose from
the safety box under control of these
two officials. All the gas is turned
on by electric currents and the fires
lighted. An electric contrivance
invented by Capt. Price draws the
blankets off the horses and the mo-
ment the driver is in his seat the
big doors fly open and the Gaps"

THE FIRE BOXES
that are being put in different parts
OF the city are the regular four-call
boxes used in all cities, connecting
with an individual gong at engine
house with annunciator that locates
fire, The first call is for police,
second for messenger, third for
special DETAIL fourth for fire. Each
call consists of "a taps; for a fire
there are four rapid calls of "A taps

Many persons will recall the famous

"a body" he argued, must move

the place where 1t Is is stationary and
