added 81 900 items, until the total swell
ed up to about $25, 1000. It was intended
that the total should not stop short of

a very busy season, as recent changes in
fashions are playing into their hands.
When the summer girl who plays tennis,
goes boating, sailing, etc., first became
a factor in American life, she wore
pretty much anything that was queer,
but now that suitable outing garments
have become an essential part Of femi-
nine costume, blouses, waists and, in
consequence, belts have grown to great
importance. Last year it was blouses
and sashes; this year it is waists and
belts, the great predominance of waists
both for house and neglige wear entail
ing similar increase in the wearing of
belts.
Bodice belts for women, ring belts for
men, both of russell leather, are the lead
ers this season. A common defect of
bodice belts, their tendency to break
down and wrinkle. is overcome by the
curved shape, which permits the belt to
fit the form with no greater tension on
the edges than in the center.-Mercer.

Mrs. Potter Palm er.

Mrs. Potter Palmer is considered by
many of her admirers to be the hand
soonest woman in the United States.
Mrs. Palmer is certainly the most am
bilious woman to be found hereabouts,
and just now she is devoting all her time
and thoughts and energy, as well as
great sums of money from her private
purse, to making the great Columbian
exhibition a success from every point
of view Mrs. Palmer is sister Of Mrs.
Fred Grant, and last summer, when Mrs.
Palmer went abroad, it was nominally
to visit her sister in Vienna. But when
once over on the other side Mrs. Palmer
found so much that could be done in the
way of interesting women in our great
forthcoming exposition that she gave
nearly all of her time to this work, fore
going all private and social pleasures.
Mrs. Potter Palmer is devoting her
life to womankind, and is leaving moth
ing undone that her countrywomen may
make creditable showing for them
selves and the various states they repre-
sent. Mrs. Palmer does this without
hope of reward. But surely, if no other
tribute is rendered her, she may rest Sc
cure in the knowledge that she has the
grateful thought and thanks of her fel-
low women.-New York Advertiser.
Brooklyn Women at a Food Exhibition.
One of the most interesting features
of the health food exposition is the
great number Of important positions
held by women. In some instances the
entire exhibit of firm is found to be
managed by a woman, the success of
which is due to her energy and interest.
This makes conversation between ex-
hibitor and visitor easy, so that much
valuable information may be CLEANED.
The exposition comes at a time when
Brooklyn women are ready to receive
new suggestions and learn in what ways
they can improve on old methods. They
realize as never before that "the kitchen
rules the world" or that the truth of
The remark ''a man thinks as he eats is
not hard to find. Cooking classes and
lectures are re-cnforced by women who
have become convinced that they do not
understand the first principles of scien-
tifc cookery The domestic department
at Pratt's has doubtless done much to
awaken interest on this subject as well
as several timely newspaper articles.
In whatever other directions women
are ambitious, if they are married and
at the head of home their first duty is
in the smooth and safe management of
the household machinery. To allow
members of the family to eat unwhole-
some, indigestible messes day after day
is the surest way to invite sickness and
disease.-Brooklyn Eagle.

TABULATING THE RETURNS.
An Unusual Proceeding BY the Board of
Aldermen.

1t has always been customary after election
for the Board of Aldermen to meet in their
room at the City Building at O'Clock on the
afternoon after the state election and foot up
the returns made by the ward clerks, which
the City Clerk tabulates and forwards to the
secretary of state.
Yesterday afternoon when the board as
sembled fer this purpose, Alderman Stevens in
the chair, Alderman Guptill moved that COM
mittee of three be appointed to tabulate the
votes and report to the board at an adjourned
meeting to be held at 10 o'clock this morning.
Mr.. Josselyn, the only Republican member of
the board, couldn't understood the reason for
any such delay. "The board is now present"
he said, "the returns are here, our time, at
least mine, is valuable, and am now giving up
this afternoon to come here to do this work. If
there is any real reasen for the delay then the
matter is different"
Mr.. Guptill thought they ought to look care
fully over the returns and by appointing the
committee this could be done.
The question was put and Mr.. Guptills mo-
ton was carried six yeas and one nay. Mr..
Josselyn voting nay.
The chair appointed Aldermen Guptill, Toll
man and Josselyn the committee to tabulate
the vote, and on motion of Alderman Rogers
the board adjourned to 10 a. m. today.

MARSHAL SWEET MAY CONTEST.
No Ground for Objection to the Deering
Election.

1t was reported yesterday that Marshal SWEET
had employed Strout, Gage & Strout and in
tends to contest Sheriff Grams election. The
understand it, if the report is a correct one, he
bases his claim on statements that have been
made that in some of the wards all the ballots
were not returned, and on minor defects in
ward clerk returns. 1t is a fact that the mar
shall, Mr.. Gage of the firm of Strout, Gage &
Strout, and several of the aldermen, were in
consultation in the city clerks office just prior
TO the meeting yesterday afternoon, when the
aldermen instead of counting the returns ad-
journed over till this morning.
RAmong other things it was rumored yesterday
afternoon that the vote of Deering might be
thrown out. Two reasons were alleged: One
that the polls were opened at a. m. instead of
8 a. NJ, and closed at 4 p. m. instead of p. M:
second, that the warrant was not properly post
ed. To the first allegation the best answer is
the passage of the ballot law:
Section 29-Meetings for the election of ma
tional, state, county and municipal officers may
be opened as early as eight o'clock in the fore
noon, and in no case shall the polls be kept
open later than five O'Clock in the afternoon,
and notice of the time of opening and closing
shall be given in the warrant calling the meet
ing.
This is evidently not a mandate to open the
polls at a. m. and close them at 5 p m.
AS to the other allegation the PRESS called
on Mayor Merrill, and inquired about the war;
rant for the election. He states that it was
properly posted in every particular, and that
the Democrats are welcome to all the comfort
they can get in Deering.
