ALL IN THE PLATFORM

There will be no unusual trouble in
the platform building by the Demo
cratic or Republican parties, but when
one looks beyond them there is foggi
ness. The Peoples party will have the
colossal and gr0teSQue task. The con-
ference at the Sherman house in Chica-
go has unsettled the situation as it was
left by the st. Louis gathering. The
contest will be renewed at Omaha over
the acceptance of woman suffrage and
prohibition. If these are taken there
can be an absorption Of the Prohibition
party, and probably the w. c. L. U.
will get into the boat also. So far
as remembered. there was very
little else left out of the collec-
lion of political things at St.
Louis. Still, the platform OF a new
and adventurous party ought to take in
all the good things lying about and not
picked up by old parties. The latter
will not take either prohibition o.
woman suffrage this year. The DoN-
NELLY aggregation will miss All oppor-
tunity if it does not take in both of
these dogmas. If this diSaffects those
welded to opposing IDEAS. they should
be concil;ated with their specialties. 1t
is immatcral whether there is quite
concord among the sections of the plat
form. Some will like one plank. and
others another, But all can be suited
in the candidate fit is the distinguished
Sage of this state. 1t will be impossi-
bic to construct one so Kaleidoscope
that he cannot keep time to its phases.

A GROWING FEEJ,1NG

There was good deal of opposition
TO the election Of Gov. BOYD, OF Ne
braska, as one Of the delegates to the
Chicago convention, from the appre-
henSion that he was not Il CLEVELAND
man. In his home at Omaha this caused
lively contest III the primaries, but
the governor carried nearly all the
wards. lie has since defined his views
clearly. His preference is for CLEYE-
LAND. He best embOdieS the party
faith, and is the great leader OF the
party. If the party can be 50 harmo-
nized on him that he can carry his own
state, Gov. BoYD will aid in his nomi-
nation. Should this unhappily appear
when the Democrats gather in national
conference TO be improbable, then Theme
braSka executive would not deem it a
kindness TO Mr.. CLEVELAND to insist
upon his candidacy. In his letter pub
lished yesterday Mr.. CLEVELAND
makes it understood that he does not
wish 70 have any personal favor influ-
enee action, and that he does not want
to lead the party to defeat. He would
subordinate men to principles. His ad-
vice is quite sincere, and will add to
tine enthusiasm felt for him. The posi-
ton of Gov. BOYD i'll first considering
the way to success is that of the great
New York statesman. Should it seem
that the selection of a Western
man would heal the differences in
New York, and best unite the
party in the states essential to
success. then he would leave his
first choice and take the one who
could most surely be elected, in what
ever section he might be found This
feeling is evidently becoming prevalent
in the party. 1t finds expression in
CLEVELAND papers in the East, and is
heard at Washington. There is in it no
abatement OF faith IN the eminent party
chieftain. lie is undoubtedly the pref
erence of the large majority of the

party. and should the clouds in the
Eastern sky melt away In the June sun,
there will be substantial unaninity al

may be had in the discernment and

Transparent Glass Bricks.

For some time past transparent glass
bricks have been let into the walls to
afford light at places where window
would interfere with the architectural
plan. But now it is proposed to cast
glass, not necessarily transparent, into
large blocks of buildings. This ma
terial is practically indestructible, per-
fectly non-absorbent and, therefore,
damp-proof in manner which few
bricks are. and in this way coarse glass
of this kind could be made nearly as
cheap as concrete, stone, or baked clay.
A plan has also been put into practice
by which broken glass of various colors
is mixed up, placed in molds lined with
silica, tale, or some other resisting ma
terial, and fired. The result is a firmly
coherent mass, which can be dressed
and cut into blocks,> which are, of
course, irregularly colored, and may be
employed in place of artificial marble.
If decorative effects are desired designs
in relief can be obtained by pressure
while the block or slab is still plastic.

FREAKS IN JEWEl-RY.
Some Young Men Have Begun Again to
Wear Bracelets.

Some Young Men Have Begun Again to
Wear Bracelets.
This lis leap year, and the jewelry
freak has already come to the surface.
Some years ago the bracelet fad took
possession of the youth of the country,
and the fealty Of Il young man was
tested by willingness to adorn his wrist
with a. plain band. And now this fad
has come to the surface again, and ii,
you will look up the sleeve of the next
fashionable man you meet, depend upon
it you will see shining bit Of silver
glistening against the white of his arm.
These are, as a rule, gifts from admir-
ing young ladies' and it may be appro-
pirate for me to say Of them, for they
all read this column, that nothing but
silver is in style for mans bracelet.
1t must be plain, moreover, and not too
large, so that it will not slip down from
the arm and show up suddenly just
when the young man is transacting an
important business matter. There is
nothing so embarrassing to young
man as to be caught a party to fad,
and particularly to such a fad.
And right here the young lady might
as well be given a pointer as to what
she can buy if she is very anxious to
take advantage of her leap-year privi-
leges. If you are buying pair Of
sleeye-buttons be sure, says the New
York World, to get something in the
nature of a plain link, for that is all the
style now; if you are buying q scarfpin
buy something that has the diamond or
sapphire in some peculiar animal" set
ting. Owls, horse heads, birds, bees,
snails, turtles, snakes, deer and even
elephant heads are the latest in the jew
elry world of fashion. The designs are
all very plain and small, but exceeding
lY pretty.

Model of q Famous Lake.

In one of the hooks of the mines
building will be shown model in relief
of the island of Trinidad, showing the
famous lake of asphalt, La Braye. This
model will probably be no more than
twenty feet square, but it will be one
of the interesting features of the as
phalt section. La Braye is about one
and one-half miles in circumference.
In the center it is hot, but toward the
shore it is cold. It's borders for three
quarters of a mile are covered with
hardened pitch, on which trees grow.
Masses of pitch, like black rocks, pro-
ject through the foliage. One peculiar.
ity OF this lake is that it's surface is COW
cred by small ponds of water full of
fishes. The entire lake is surrounded
by mangrove swamps, and scientists
have been puzzled to explain the phe-
nomenon that these swamps are con-
siderable lower than the lake itself.

PARTISAN SLANG.
The Term Rastaquouere and Its
Peculiar Significance.
a Word That Expresses Combination Of
Riches, Vanity and vulgarity-Peo-
Pile Who Love to Parade Their
Extravagant Fancies.

The word rastaquouere, in its present
extended sense, is a new one, and has
no place in any dictionary, says writer
in London Truth. The academy has as
yet not noticed it. The word originated
in this way: Early in the '70's Senior
Rastaquoueros, who came from some
part of South America and had fabu-
lousy large. credit at Rothschild's S, burst
upon the town. He wore prodigiously
large brilliants as shirt studs, rings to
match, and used to give fve-franc pieces
as pourboires to walters at cafes He
became source of wealth to picture
dealers who had ancient masters" the
color of gingerbread, and painted by
young Partisan rapins to get rid of (sic).
He had box at the opera, where he
used to show off his diamonds, and being
prodiga] both from vanity and good
nature, was, of course, a favorite of the
corps de ballet. How he ended have no
idea. But his fortune was soon de-
voured by sharpers and his fair friends.
After he disappeared these ladies
used to go to Notre Dame DIES
Victories to pray that a rastaquouere
might be sent to them. When a
wealthy Spanish-A1nerican turned up
he was spoken of by them as rasta-
quouere For some years the word was
exclusively applied to Spanish-Amer-
leans and Mexicans, 1t is now extended
to most foreigners who are vain and
rich, and believe that money can buy
anything, everything, worth having in
ife-prize guests, of course, included.
Baron Hirsch was objected to by the
circle of La Rue Royale as a rasta-
quorere. Three or four years ago the
term could not have been applied to any
English or even North American per
son. But they are all now, when rich,
vain and vulgar, Jumped up in the genus
of which Senior Rastaquoueros was the
root. One may be a snob without being
rastaquouere, but one cannot be a
rastaquouere without being a snob.
The former, should say, is the snob
triumphant, through the things that
money can procure. This form OF snob-
bisn implies advertisement, and plenty
OF it. The rastaquouere does not see
what is the good of having Queen Isa-
bella or the prince of Wales to gay mat
inees or luxurious dinners unless the
papers know that they came, what was
paid fo. the floral decorations, what
viands and wines were set before them,
and what comedians were engaged at
great prices to entertain them. 1t is
not society, but an ad1niring public.
that the rastaquouere host and hostess
crave for Formerly this word implied
a touch of good nature, or, at any rate,
en- open hand in spending money. One
may now be as hard as nails and yet a
rastaquouere. It will do to seem lavish.

Committee on Grounds Decline the Re-

The application of the Queen Isa-

grounds has been refused by the

The committee gave as it's reasons for
declining the application lack of space
and previously established rule that
it would not grant any space for the
