It is freely talked by leading Demo-
Gratis of Washington that deter
mined effort will be made to unite the
Democratic Senators In opposition to
the confirmation of ex-Representative
McComas as Justice Of the Supreme
Court of the District. It is recalled
thai after thei Presidential election
four years ago Mr.. Cleveland pomi-
mated Mr.. Stevenson, of Illinois, for a
place on tho same bench. He WIS re-
jected by the Senate on a report
brought in by Mr.. Edmunds that it
was improper to confirm a man for
life place on the nomination OF a
President who had just been defeated
for reelection. BY rejecting Mr..
stevenson for the District Judgeship
the Senate paved the way for his cleo
tion to the secnnd highest place in
the gift Of the people. Had he been
confirmed, OF course he would never
have been thought Of for Vice Presi-
dent. So time makes all things even.
1t is no doubt gratifying TO Mr..
Stevenson to know that on the 4th of
next March he will begin his duties
as presiding officer Of the body which,
only four short years ago, gave him a
bad quarter Of an hour, as the French
put it. Perhaps even now he is
dreaming Of repeating Van Buren's
experience. He was rejected as Min,
istsr to England by a Wing Senate,
and returned to this country only to
be elected Vice-President at the suc-
Ceeding election and President at the
one following that.-lEnterprise.

The Society II Decorative Arts organizes seine
exposition each wear for the late summer and
autumn This time, under prstext of glori-
fling woman, il has given exposition of her
caPrices, her tastes, her fashions and her infnt-
nations for centuries back; bringing 10 life
again her rags and ribbons, her impossible hats
and forgotten head dresses. and the toys which
have amused her and the furniture which was
the object Of her enthurasm
IL has been Il-naturedly said that the exposi-
ton Is confined almost exclusively to displays
OF dressmaking and hair dressing, and that the
higher arts are not represented. This is not
true; and. even with regard TO the very great
display Of costumes and coifures. it is hardly
fair 10 say that they are not artistic. They are
certainly representative of woman's work.
The ground Aoor Of the exposition il devoted
principally to furniture. tapestries bric-s-brac,
jevelry and smaller objects Of vertu. The
large inner court Is gravsled. with garden and
place for refreshment in the center and band
stationed In front Free seats are ranged about
and overhead there is gla.s roof This is
properly the Commercial part Of the exhibition.
The various articles are ranged around the sides
Of the court, each exhibitor being allowed so
much space, which Is divided from the others
BY partitions. Each one follows his own in

cheap, as prices go in America. one set Of
i've pieces was marked ut $50 francs; il would
sell in the United States for several hundred
tollars. Another handsome set Was marked
SIS francs. The D'Aubusson tapestry claimed
our attention for a long time. On one side the
walls were covered with gilt panels, in which
were framed inc sam pies representing country
scenes. Opposite them were long panels o.

From Peasant to Sultans,

from the LeeoS mercury.
Here Is little rom ance in real life which ]
am inclined to think would be hard to beat.
There was few year, ago very beautiful girl
working in the coal mines Of France. Some
charitable person, struck no doubt by the girls
wonderful beauty, found her q situation in q
famous dressmaking establishment in Paris,
where her superior Intelligence soon made her
favorite with the madame
She was at last sent TO Constantinople with
some dresses which had been ordered BY the
sultsn's mother, and from that time nothing
was heard OF her for many years. She might,
perhaps, have faded out Of their memory had
not relative died and left her small inheri-
tance;, Notices were then published asking for
her whereabouts.
In answer to these asplendid equipags drew
up in front OF the embassy and the sultan q
favorlte wife stepped out to declare herself the
one time Flora Collin. She renowned the
legacy in favor Of her kindred, who were still
poor, and, in reply to many inquiries, she ex-
planned that it was the old story Of love ct first
sight between the sultan and the beautiful
modiste.

stand upon Patuxent's shore
And see the lights Of Baltimore
A silvery drapery Of the sky,
Where shadows Of the city lie;
The light and shade Of human life,
An intermlngling eace and strife,
The smiles, the tears, the joy, the gloom,
The burial pail, the bridal bloom.
The teetning city's ceaseless roar.
Amid the lights Of Baltimore.
The city streets beneath the light,
The crowds that circle in the night,
The shops ablaze with cleaning wares,
The sidewalks gay with gladstone pairs,
The music halls alive with thropgs
That sip the glass and hear the songs,
The mortal stage Of mimic scenes,
The wanton crowned with wreath Of greens,
The mellow fruit with bitter core,
Amid the lights Of Baltimore.
The student pale from stress of thought
To win the laurels learning wrought,
The begging Migrants of the curb
Who wealths complacency disturb,
The drunkard in bis scottish sleep
Wnne wife and widow starve and weep
The widow and the orphan lone
Who wanting bread receive stone
In mockery Of the words Of yore,
Amid the lights Of Baltimore.
The felon In his shameful cell,
The snowflake once SO pure that fell,
The victim silent In her blood
Where yesterday bride she stood,
The bellies Of opera and ball,
The beaux who mock VI foNys call,
The gambler on the fatal road,
Its goal the pistols ieaden load
Instead Of fortunes golden store,
Amid the lights Of Baltimore.
And rs l watch the changefui glow
The shadows fade, the lights burn low,
And darkness nings its dreamy folds
Der every soul the city holds;
And where the weird fantastic glare
Showed me those specters In the air
The stars shine out In bliss above
With all their wealth Of hope and love
And bless the scenes i saw before,
Amid the lights Of Baltimore.

duced remarkable results, discovery being made
that yellow perch can be Matched and supplied
to streams and other waters much more easily

subjecting the eggs to artificial incubation.

fishermen at Fort Washington, Nd and brought
to the central station Of the 6sh commission in
this city. They we're put into four glass squaria,
