She Greatly Admired the "stuft"


An incident occurred on Broadway car the
other day, which, while extremely embarrassing
to one of the participants, says the New York
Rec rider, WAS certainly amusing TO the specta-
tors. A fussy little old lady. wearing side curls
and rather antediluvian style of dress. sat
opposite young woman whose well-formed
figure was superbly attired in all the glorious
pompostty OF the modern dressmaker's art
The little old lady would look the Young woman
full in the fac, then her gaze would travel up
and down until her eyes finally rested on the
splendid dress, where they would seem to be
riveted for the space Of minute or
so, after which she would begin the
performance OF scanning the young woman
all over again she had repeated this
action some half q dozen times and at each
successive inspection the embarrassment of the
young woman increased so that it seemed as II
the only escape out of the dilemma was to
leave the car. Just as Twenty-thrd street was
reached the little old woman arose like flash,
beckoned to the conductor to stop the car and
approaching the young lady, said:
You'll excuse me- miss, but would you mind
atellin' me where you bought that ere stuff
your dress is made out of? I've been admiripe
it very much, and I'd like to have 'nough stuti
to make rue skirt Of" The young woman
said:
II don't remember where it was bought"
well, that's too bad. You'll excuse me
though, won't your But l did admire it sol"
And then. not whit disconnected, the little
old woman turned, walked slowly out, and left
the car

Usually the Detroit Free Press is
pretty level-headed print. But it has badly
ksrfumexed in the quoted words of alleged
proverbial philosophy which was probably
worked of when the professional philosopher
was somewhat sleepy aud writing against
barren space. With an air OF eckno wledged
authority he says to married men:
Don't forget that husbands should be gen-
tlemen at all times and under all circum-
stances" Just Why husbands should per-
sist in being gentlemen 30 systematically to
the utter exclusion of the wifeless is not
perfectly clear. Burglars and railway off,
cials are sometimes husbands. Yet to ask
them to be gentlemen SO persistently would
be expecting something unnatural and I'M
reasonable. II all husbands are to be in
violately gentlemen where shall we get our
future coal-heaversl Surely the philoso-
pher would not consign them to perpetual
celibacy. But possibly he doesn't know
what the word gentleman" means. Some

pening Market for Cotton Seed OIL.
Cotton seed oil Is gradually but surely GID
ing into public esteem aud steadily breaking
down the erstwhile unreasoning prejudice
against IL by the sheer force Of its own in
herent purity aud clear complexion. At the
outset those who gave the matter any serious
thought felt sure chat general recognition
of the real value Of cotton seed oil could only
be a matter Of time.
According to the Pittsburg Dispatch the
strong sympathy of Chicagosns for the great
American hog is largely due to a realization
that "all flesh is grass" From that basis
they manage to trace more or less distinct
relationship between themselves aud their
porcine property which causes
them to fight vigorously for
his introduction into European
society. But the surmise is that they are
not now quite so ready as they were to fight
against the association Of the hog with cot
ton seed oil for the supposed reason that the
Chicago lard industries have merged inter
ests with the oil manuf icturers 90 as to
make the refined grease business more profit
able all around.
Pretty soon we may expect to see the mask
under which the oil has heretofore been
sold thrown of so as to bring it into gem
eral use upon its merits for pastry cooking.
For that purpose it is really superior de-
spite the solemn warning of a Pennsylvania
legislator who denounced it as an iniqul-
tous deobstrusnt when he was fighting for
the anti .oleomargariue law.
Merely through an unreasoning
and groundless prejudice people who
have been perfectly willing to pay "a and
IS gallon for it as salad oil have stead
lastly objected to paying a few cents a
pound for it as shortening" This shows
that their prejudice was not founded upon
any real impurity or other Objectionable
characteristic Of the oil. Else they would
have detected 1t in using the oil raw on
salads. II it is good enough for that it is
certainly good enough to cook with. 1t is
wholly devoid of all the impurities that
frequently permeate the fatty products of
animals.
AS the cotton crop is very large this year
the output of oil will probably be COM
mensurately great and the people will have
a chance to test Its merits and cultivate a
taste for it at comparatively small cost

CAMPAIGN AGAINST

The city council, the physicians and
the fire department are making a dead
set against Chicago's skyscraping build
ings. The council fears them for various
reasons, including the possibility of their
collapsing. The physicians contend they
ere disease breeders in consequence of so
many people being confined within such
circumscribed limit. The chiei of the
fire department speculates upon the pos
sible results in the event a fire should
break out IN one of them. 1t is possible
now that public attention is drawn to this
matter that even Chicago builders may
curb their soaring ambition. OF late it
seems to have been a matter of pride for
one millionaire to Guido another in the
height of the building which he con-
structed and if the rivaly continued no.
body seems to know where the thing was
liable to stop. Perhaps it would bo Just
as well to stop where it Is. Chicago's
highest buildings are high enough now in
all conscience and il the business popula-
ton continues centralizing street traffic
will be impeded and a very direct damage
will be done TO the business of the city.

THE NJ

The ecumenical council of Methodism,
representing the church from its universal
field. which adjourned in Washington
yesterday, was one OF the most remarka-
bic gatherings Of churchmen ever held in
this country. 1t was attended by a host
of earnest men, some of whom have a
world wide reputation, aud all of whom
are men OF mark IN the communities in
which they live. 1t could scarcely be
expected that all OF these should have
been in complete accord on every question
of minor and local moment, but the har-
mony was complete on all the essential
questions which affect the well being of
the church.
The council shows the church to be
aggressive, ~yigilant and progressive. Its
work everywhere is being pushed with
commcndable vigor and everywhere it dis
plays a growth which attests the spirit
and enterprise of its leaders. Perhaps
it would have been Just as well had the
council made fewer direct onslaughts
against other religious organizations. buI
taken as n whole, the result of the gather.
ing cannot fail to have a stimulating eff
feet upon universal Methodism and reli-
gious thought everywhere.

Other Topics of Interest at Last
Nights Meeting.

At last nights meeting these council
men answered the roll call: Messrs.
Merrill, Richardson, jerks, Harrington.
Bond.
THE STREET CAR MATTER.
A communication was read from the
nag Of the street car company. The
company object to paying for the street car
tracks across the viaduct and
allow the tracks TO still re
main in the hands of the CITY. By
the present city ordinances the city re-
serves the right to use or allow other com.
panies to use the tracks over the vIaduct
even after the present company hal have
paid for them. The street car mpan
say they are willing to stop running cver
the viaduct whenever requested to do so
by the city and not use the viaduct until
such time as arrangements can be had.
The street and alley committee were al
lowed further time in the matter.
H PUMP HOUSE.
The city clerk was ordered to advertise
for bids for the construction of a city
pump house on block 400 between Fif-
teenth and Sixteenth and Ames and
Dillon streets. The Union Pacific com
Dany has agreed to sell to the city lots 9,
10, II, IL. Is, and IA in that block for
$3.50.
TELEGRAPH POLES.
An ordinance approving the location OF
the Western Union telegraph poles as
now in use, and grounding a further extern
sion of the lines was passed. The company
allows the fire alarm boxes and wires to
be attached to their poles.
SIDEWALKS.
The city clerk was authorized to adver-
rise for bids for the laying of | 800 feet of
sidewalk on O'Neil street and 26G feet on
Eddy street.
On the motion to authorize the clerk to
advertise for bids for building the walks
the vote was Bond, jerks. Merrill.
Harrington. aye. Richardson, no. The
property holders will be taxed to pay for
the walks.
A HORSE.
The chairman of the police committee
was instructed to buy a horse for the use
of the city police. The motion to buy the
horse was made by Alderman Harrington,
who said the horse now owned by the city
had been in use for seven years. A horse
would be handy to run in COWS. Bond
thought not many cows were run in any
how. The vote was Harrington aye. The
others did not vote.
SNYDER sTREET SUBWAY.
The matter of the Snyder street subway
was mentioned. The matter is allowed to
rest for the present. The plans sub
mitted by the railway company will be
examined by the city engineer. The
Union Pacific company has been re.
minded by the mavor of the Sc, 200 due
the city on the viaduct, as requested at
the last meeting.
SEREET LIGHTS.
Mr.. Harrington made a | ew remarks
about the street lights. The city pays
SC, 200 a year for the lights, he said, but
some of the lights are not as good as a
lantern. The electric light company should
give the city better service. No action
was taken in regard to the matter.

JUST AS you LOOK At 1T.

The Sun grows iercely indignant over
any reference to the electric light COM
pany which might be construed into a re-
Election upon that concern. IN the eyes
of the Sun the electric light company ia a
public benefact1r. The purpose OF its
existence is to do good and the object of
making money Cor its stockholders is a
contingency which rarely enters into its
calculation. According to our contem-
porarY the company made extraordinary
concessions to the city in the last contract
in which it entered. Previous to the last
contract the city was paying the company
5000 a year Tor the alleged purpose OF
lighting the streets. 1t is now paying
5000 for the same purpose. Formerly
it had twenty.three lights; now it has
twenty-six. In the aggregate the COM
pany gets 5000 a year more money than
it formerly did and furnishes three nore
arc lights, but if the people generally have
observed that the streets are better lighted
in auv respects than formerly we have
failed to hear them make any remarks on
the subject.
Each public light IN Cheyenne costs the
city 5000 a year. Denver pays 1920 for a
much better and more reliable arc light.
Even this is considered too much money
and the papers there are constantly criti-
cizing what they consider an enormous
charge.
In Cheyenne, according to the Sun. it
should he esteemed a privilege to be per-
mitted to pay the electric light company
the tnfling sum of 5000 a year for each
