All Hopeful of Success.

PIERRE, {. D., Jan. 3l.-The seventeenth
and eighteenth ballot for senator was
taken today The only new develop
ment was the large independent vote for
Harden, who got iorty-one votes. This
was predicted. 1t is now believed the in
dependents and democrats cannot
unite. The republicans are try
ing TO unite on a candidate with
Melville leading. No person is now bold
enough to predict the outcome of the dead
lock, though all three parties are hopeful
OF success. Republicans have the most
ground for hope. having the largest vote
and most OF the independents formerly re-
publicans are III sympathy with it on most
national questions.
The senatorial situation contains possi-
biiity that no election will be reached this
session, and Governor Mellettee will ap-
point Senator Moody for two wears. The
independents stand firm and declare they
prefer a republican should hold the posi-
ton for two years rather than be COM
PEELED to vote for any republican or demo
crat

showed him to be three inches taller than

BURNED TO A CRISP.
Three Lives Lost in the Burning of an
OHIO Town.

FIYDLAY. o., Jan. S0.-A disastrous fire
nearly swept out of existence the business
portion of the town of Cygnet, thirteen
miles north OF here, at an early hour this
morning. and resulted in the loss of three
lives. The fire started in the millinery
store of Mrs. Leon Alaloney, above which
slept Mr.. Maioney and his three-year-old
daughter and his brother-in-law, Michael
Slattery of Pennsylvania, who wss visiting
there. These three were sufiocatedl by
the smoke and burned into a crisp, their
charred bodies being raked from the ruins.
Mrs. Maloney and another child escaped
in their night clothes and are in a preca-
rious condition. The fire destroyed the
grocery store of II. ID. Hahn, a drug store
owned BY L. ]. Myers, the dry goods and
clothing store of Jacob Fenberg, the no.
ton store OF W. II. Belknap, the barber
shop of William Davis and the hardware
and oil supply store of the Buckeye sup
ply company. All OF the buildings Wera
occupied by families in the second story,
all of the persons escaping in their night
clothes and some OF them receiving iu-
juries, but none serious except those OF
Jacob Fenberg, who inhaled hot smoke,
so that his condition is critical The total
loss amounts to $50 0O0, with noinsuranCe.

VERY BAD SHOWING.
The Large Amount of Money Due the State

The Large AmOunt OF Money Due the state
From Hallway Company.
The Terre Haute & indianapolis railroad
company owes the state several milliO ms
of dollars.
The debt has been standing for years.
1t will pro baby never be paid
Repeated efforts have been made to col
lect it, or part OF it, but in vain. The rail
road company has always been able to de
feat these efforts.
Legie i've committees nave been APP
pointed to investigate the matter, but
their reports appear always to have been
written by the railroad company's attor-
neys.
Attorney generals have tried, or pre-
tended to try, to collect the claim, but
none OF them succeeded.
A twelfth Juror, or Judge who got up
at four o'clock in the morning to dismiss a
jury, or a technical supreme court, or
something else, has always come between
the state ana the company at a critical
moment-just in time TO save the latter.
We publish elsewhere the shameful
history of the relations between the state
and this railroad corporation from the be-
ginning. 1t is an edifyiDg history-very.
We think 1t is good time to publ ish
this matter. We think it is just as well
for the members of the legislature to un-
derstand the methods by which corpora
tions evade their obligations to the public.
and how it is that these corporations,
which are merely the creatures of the
state, prove stronger than their creator,
whenever they come in co lflict.
This legislature proposes to pass rev.
enue bills largely increasing the taxes
of corporations. Let it take pains
to have these bills so carefully
drawn that the corporations can
not evade them, or break them down in
the courts. A big corporation lobby is
gathering at Indianapolis, and it means to
defeat any practical legislation OF the
character indicated if it can. Let every
honest man in each branch of the legis-
lature be on the alert.
To return to our text: We have no idea
that the state will ever collect penny of
the enormous debt which the Terre
Haute & indianapolis railroad
company owes it. But if the
legislature and the executive officers
of the state would do their full duty in
telligently, honestly, presstently; if they
would fight as hard battle for the people
as the railroad company will fight for
itself-this debt could be collected.
We shall see what we shall see

-Four Men Rob n Saloon and Make Their
Escape.
Kansas CRY, Jan. 31.-At 8 o'clock this
morning there were three men in the
saloon of Mossberker, Hederman & Peck,
at No. 1917 w. Sixteenth-st. They were
the bartender, the night waiter and
John T. Coughlin, an employe of
johnson & Co. At 8 o'clock two men
entered the saloon and called for drink.
The bartender stopped down to get bot
tie, and while in that position ono of the
customers drew his revolver and pointed
it at the bartender's head. The
other customer covered the wait
ers, and just then two masked men,
in league with the two strangers, entered.
One of them looked after Cough
lin while the other pried open the
cash drawer and took $50. They
formed the three saloon men in
line and marched them out OF the
side door to high rear fence and made
them stand close to the fence while the
treasurer OF the robbers searched the
pockets of their victims and secured
some $40 in money, three watches and
some jewelry. The robbers then jumped
over the fence and escaped. This is the
fourth robbery of the kind that has oc-
CURED in the vicinity in two weeks. On
the occasion of the robbery of McShane's
saloon the proprietor was shot and killed

partly because the table itself, from the in
formaiity of the meal, is hard to make at
tractive. A little special thought given to
the appearance of the breakfast table pays.
The sight of a spotleJs white table In the
morning, with dainty, graceful dishes, and
a touch of glitter in silver and cut glass, Is
enough to add Zest to the most reluctant
appetite. If for reasons Of economy a col
ored cloth is preferred for breakfast, look
of dainty freshness NAV be given to the
table by spreading napkins about carefully
and Systematically. One of the prettiest
breakfast tables I ever saw was one that
had cover of plain blue denim, with big
square of white damask, hemstitched, but
perfectly plain, laid across the center so as
to show four corners of color and a white
center. In the center stood glass rose
bowl that was kept filled with fresh ferns.
The dishes were white and blue Nielsen.
Another, where the family circumstances
were such that they might be as lavish as
they chose In fine linen, was kept always
laid in white, both in dishes and in china,
save for the touch of gold on the breakfast
set and the tiny pink and blue flowers pow
dered over the Dresden china oatmeal set
that saved the table from being a monotone
in white and gold.
Everybody can't have monotones in white
and gold even, but anybody can have dainti-
ness and freshness and a color study that
will make dyspeptio hungry. Quite as
pretty as the white and gold breakfast table
was one in which the cloth was of heavy un-
bleached 6amask, in the ivory tone that is
really more gratifying to the artistic eve
than white. The dishes were of Cheap
stoneware, the most pretentious piece of
which had not cost more than 60 cents But
the groundwork was of the same ivory color
as the linen and the decorations were of dull
pink. A quaint little jar of the same shade
of pink had been picked up years before
and now stored In. the center of the table
and held flowers. The carafes and tumblers
were not Of cut glass; but they were always
glistening and there was always a dish Of
fruit that was q composition it itself.

WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH,
A mans tour-in-hand tie, for ordinary
wear, costs from 81 to S., if 1t Is Of good
quality. And no man ought to be INDUCED
in wearing tie of anything else than good
quality. Because the necktie forms q. focal
point in mems dress, and, if that be CHEAP,
the whole effect is cheapened, no matter
how costly the rest of the clothing may be.
A four-in-hand. then, of good quality costs
something over dollar. A yard of faiIIe
Franchise like that from which the tie is
made costs 50 90 The strip of silk in the
tie is four inches wide, unmade, and a ward
and a quarter long. Six of these strips can
be cut from that length of silk. Allow an
other dollar for the light silk or satin lin
ing and the bit of wadding that interlines
it. There you have six four-in-hands for
about the price of three
AS to the making, that is the simplest
possible thing. Get your husband or
brother or father to give you and old tie
that he has liked, but which is past wear
ing. Rip 1t apart SO as to see exactly how
it is made, and tnen use the pieces for a
pattern. Make the new ones exactly like
the old one.
"But think of six ties oil exactly alikep'
says some girl who reads this.

strip of silk and snapped strips SO that
when all the ties were done, each had one

one of palest pearl colox.

the porcelain or earthen coffee pot and per-
forated earthen strainer placed on top of
the pot. Hot water was poured on and
allowed to filter through. The common
French coffee pot carries out Count Rum
ford's idea as to displacement, but is far
off as to the mate rial of timed iron, which
Rumford would not use, as the tannate of
iron and lead (from the solder) is formed
which the drinkers admit into their bodies.
It is only needful to look into any tin
coffee pot to be assured of this fact by the
blackness of the inside. Rumford was right
and the French are wrong about using
metallic coffee pots. 1t is not right to drink up

tion of its substance. The question arises, if
Count Rumford 100 years ago gave such
good directions, why the need of more writ

cUEING NERVOUS HEADACHE
Hot Wster on Face and Head and 8 Good
Rest Afterward.
WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH,


WRITTEN FOR THE DISPATCH,
It has been a hard day, and the tired
lines in your face show it. The muscles of
the face have lost their frmness, and the
lines about the cheeks and mouth and ewes
drocp wearily. You look ten years older
than you know you are, and you feel sadder
than you know you have right to be-
Worse than all, sharp pain shoots fro m
the left temple over the forehead and down
the lett side of the face. You know that
means a nervous headache and night of
agony unless something is done quickly.
Try this: Slip of your bodice and bare
your neck. Twist your hair into loose
knot on the top Of your head. Then take o
sponge and basin Of hot water-iust as hot
as you can bear it. Pass the hot, wet
sponge slowly and steadily over the face
and forehead for eight or ten minutes, keep
ing the sponge as hot as it can be borne,
By that time your face will look and feel
as If it were parboiled But don't worry
Then bathe the back of the neck as YOU
have done the face, carrying the sponge
each time well up the back of the head.
Keep this up for the same length of time;
then, without looking at yourself in the
glass, because that would be sure to
olsQulet you, Qfy your Iace ana neck softly
and go and lie down fiat on your back.
Close your eyes and think of just this ono
thing; how heavy you are on the couch
and how easily it supports you. That is
really an important part of the cure
Lie there for half an hour, if you don't
fall asleep, as you probably will. Then
get up and take the deferred look in the
glass. The tired look has gone; the muscles
have regained their tone; the wrinkles have
disappeared. You look like your younger
sister. Best of all, the darting pain in the
head and the pessimism of the soul have
gone, too. MOTHER M. D.

perforated diaphragm of earthenware, which
abbreviates the time needed to filter. The
best pot for making coffee Is ono in which
the pot is earthen and the bag, of cotton, is
suspended at the top. The best results are
produced by having the coffee ground extra
fine while it is hot and put in an air-tight
receptacle. When can of this ground
coffee is opened its odor pervades the whole
apartment, as the volatile oil has not had
chance to escape In Hayti they roast,
grind and use their coffee at once.
First, have the coffee good, fresh and
ground very fine.
Second, pour hot water into the coffee
pot, so as to heat it thoroughly before use.
Third, put (for an ordinary family tea
cupful of coffee, prepared as above, into the
bag placed at the top of the open heated
pot.
Fourth, pour on boiling water until suf-
fcient amount of coffee is made. Renew
as required.
The process Is one of displacement, such
as is used in pharmacy. 1t is wonderful
with what facility roasted coffee irhparts its
virtues to boiling water. Probably no
fruit gives up its virtues so rapidly. A
good cup of coffee can be made in one min
ute in this way.
Surely people who have poor coffee are
without excuse when it can be made so
quickly and simply.

"A remarkable snake story was told BY a
resident of Clarion county yesterday, and
but for the unimpeachable character of the
narrator would sound like "snake story"
He stated that q farmer who lived near
Clarion, while in g field, was attacked bv q
snake fully ten feet in length The reptile
coiled itself around the farmers waist and
glared f1edly in his face, evidently trying
to charm him. Shaking off the dizzy feel
ing caused by the snakes hypnotic gaze,
the farmer cut it to pieces with the scythe,
and then, exhausted with fright and over
e1ertion, sank to the ground.
The head of the snake, with portion of
the body, lay near him, and the peculiar
color caused him to pick it up, and he found
1t was an albino black snake. The peculiar
formation of the snakes eyes caused him to
examine them closely, and he could hardly
believe the evidence of his senses when he
discovered a perfect reproduction of his face
photographed in the center of the eye. He
brought the snake to town, where 1t was
photographed and preserved in alcohol.
The negative raken by the photographer
shows the snakes eye perfectly with the
farmers face showing as clearly as if also
taken with camera
