The household.

Dotted Swiss muslins, which were
the fashion years ago, come back this
year.
Never was whalebone so dear as it is
now-S5 so per pound. Old fashioned
umbrellas are being locked up as family
treasures.
Branches of Norway spruce broken
off and placed in large vase Of water
will soon send out feathery pale-green
shoots, which give delightful fragrance
to the room.
It is the fashion now to buy odd
vases. Pairs are going out Of style.
This is very comforting thought to
the woman who has engaged new
parlor maid and has had no experience
of her talents as brio a-brac smaher.
High standing collars continue to be
the proper thing for men, especially
for evening dress, but some turnovers
are worn. The very latest touch is to
have the corners of a standur collar
pinched out just little to form tiny
dog ears.
A stylish visiting or reception dress.
made from Paris model, had bodice
of velvet to match the wool skirt, and
sleeves of wool with velvet cuffs. Ben.
galinc or armure silk is also stylishly
combined with wool. Velvet will con
tinue to be in favor this spring, as it
has been throughout the winter.
The small green insects that are so
annoying to the winter house plant may
be destroyed, according to a good
authority, by plunging the plant into a
tub of water heated to 1900, The
temperature should be carefully tested
BY thermometer. A momentary bath
is sufficient, and the most sensitive
foliage will not be injured by the pro
cess.
A recipe for soap bubble mixture
allows sixty grains of white CASTLE soap
to one ounce Of soft water. 1t should
be placed in bottle three times as
large as will contain it, and after stand
ing two or three hours, one half as
much glycerine as water should be
added. This may be allowed few
hours to dissolve, and then should be
thoroughly shaken at intervals to facili.
tate thorough solution. Large and
durable bubbles can be made from this
mixture, which should be prepared
twenty.four hours before it is to be used.
A convenient and excellent method
of laundrying handkerchiefs is extern
sively used by European lady travellers,
and is serviceable to many others.
When properly washed, they should be
wrung out of either hot or cold rinsing
water, but not wrung very dry. Now,
having wiped off any dust from the
mirror, marble table or, in an emergency,
the window pane, smooth the wet linen
carefully on the glass or marble surface,
being very careful to press out all
wrinkles, and see that every part clings
closely to the surface. Embroidery
can be made to look very nicely. In a
few hours the handkerchief will be
beautifully smooth and dry. If care
fully done. fine muslin handkerchief
laundried In this way looks better than
when submitted to the smoothing iron,
and many travellers prefer to continue
this method after the special exigencies
Of travel are over.

TIM POSSIBLY INDICTED.
But the Gamblers and Sunday Sa-
lOOniStS Are Not.

The grand jury has adjourned until
Feb. without returning any indict-
ments against gamblers or saloOnkeep-
ers, and about the only thing that the
only thing that the Evening Tribune
has published Exclusively" is lot of
false sensations. The grand jury inves-
tigated the gambling charges made by
the evening sheet, and found that not a
single gambling house existed in the
city-hence no one was indicted. In
the matter of the Sunday SaloOnkeeperS
the jury concluded that it would be
best for them to be prosecuted in the
municipal court, as it was clearly a To-
cal issue.
Only seven indictments were handed
in by the jury, and they will not be
made public until the indicted parties
are placed under arrest. 1t is stated
that Tim Byrnes is among those in
dicted. The indictment against him, it
is said, charges that he crIminally
altered mortgage satisfaction executed
by Mary A. Goodrich, his mother-in-
law.
Mr.. Byrnes teiegraphed from Wash
ington about week ago that he would
return to Minneapolis to face the charges
made against him. A few days later a
dispatch from Chicago announced that
he was in that city on his way home to
clear himself of the ugly insinuatiOnS of
the press.

p. RYAN OBJECTS.
He Will Have Kick for That Park
Board Rules ReDopt.

The park board held an adjourned
session yesterday. 1t was supposed that
the repOst of the committee on rules, the
outcome of the Barry investigation,
would come up for investigation. 1t
was shelved on point of order. Last
Monday the board voted to postpone the
discussion of the report until the next
meeting" Yesterdays session was
merely continuation of the meeting a
week before, so the report went over.
Commissioner Ryan managed to get i'm
his protest against that portion of the
rules that will exclude any of his rela-
tiveS from working for the board. He
says he has as good a right TO give his
relatives places under the board as Mr..
NorthrOp has to sell seeds to the board,
or as Mr.. Stoft has to furnish-it with
hardware. So far as known, Mr.. Ryan's
will be the only objection to the new
rules when they come up for action. 1t
is possible that the president will call a
special meeting of the board some time
this week for the consideration OF the
report.
&. j. Burnes, who bought a house
from the board, has never paid cent
on it and has moved the house four
blocks. He will be two days in which
to make good. If he fails, the house
| will go to the next highest bidder and
