A COMPOSITE.
The New York Reform Club sits for It's
Portrait To Democrat.

The New York Reform Club sits for Its
Portrait To n Democrat.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-A prominent
Democrat, referring to the incident, ex-
pressed himself In this caustic manner on
the Reform Club and its followers:
"Of whom" he said, "does the Reform
Club consist? 1t is composed as l under
stand It, of free traders, mugwumps, and
In part that particular class OF importers
who belong to the alien undervaluation
syndicate, who are not citizens of the
United States, and whose only interest In
this go oyernment Is the facilities which 1t
affords them Of obtaining large commits
sions upon importations. Some members
of the Reform Club are men, who, / am
told, have been members OF the under
valuation, alien, importing syndicate,
which was so thoroughly exposed q few
years ago by the Senate committee on
finance, against which Senator Beck of
Kentucky was SO vigorous in his denun-
citation.
"In other words, suppose many OF
them might be called alien smugglers.
The testimony taken by the Senate COM
mittee on finance with regard to the bust
ness operations OF some OF these men has
shown that as they own the manufacto-
ries in Europe, and consign only to them
selves in the United States, they avoid
making market value in Europe, and
are thus enabled to undervalue their goods
in any manner they choose.
''The consequence Is that in certain
lines OF goods, great firms like Marshall
Field & Co., in Chicago, and some OF the
largest firms in New York city, have been
J. driven out of the importation OF certain
| lines of manufacture.
"These are the gentlemen in some meas
| ure who compose the Reform Club. 1t II
worthy of note that Senator German oi
Maryland and William G. Whitney, al
| though present in New York, could no,
| find Il convenient to be at that banquet
! even for half an hour"

Medford's First Mayor.

MEDFoRD, Mass, Dec. 14.-Medford has
seen and heard from its first city election,
and General Samuel G. Lawrence is elect
ed as its first mayor. As expected, 1t was
an easy walkover for the General, as his
long residence in the town and his person
al popularity was in the minds of the peo-
pie, first and foremost. The Childs men
did not claim an election, but expected to
pollfully 800 votes more than they did, and
attribute the loss to the no license people,
who have told innumerable stories, with
out the least foundation for the same.

Newbury ports Election.

NEwBURYPoRT, Mass, Dec. 1.-THE
city election here passed of very quietly.
This was owing in measure to the fact
that there was only one candidate for
mayor, both the Independent Citizens
and the Citizens parties having endorsed
Mavor Gurney, who has been reelected

aidermanic candidate in ward six. The
main fight was on the license question.

SALEM, Mass, Dec. 1.-THE result Of
the city election yesterday, was the re-
election of the present mayor, and, with
single exception, the present board of
aldermen. Mr.. Palfrey OF ward declined

majority for no license is 302, as against
about 600 for license last year.

skyrockets Before Gunpowder.

It matters very little in the long run tc
the Nineteenth century small boy when
how or where fireworks were first made
and of what they are made now. But the
fact remains that the despised heather
Chinese first made them and used them
and that civivilized communities did not
know of them until the Fourteenth cen.
tury. The skyrocket was first invented
toward the close of the Ninth century, and
at that time was used, so it is said, in
India and China in war. That was long
before the invention of gunpowder.-New

How to Disguise the Taste OF Medicine.
A strong solution of extract of licorice
destroys the disagreeable taste of aloes.
Peppermint water disguises the nauseous
taste Of EPSON salts. Milk is a good
abater of the bitter taste of Peruvian
bark, and cloves that of SIENNA. Castor
oil cannot be tasted if beaten and thor.
oughlv mixed with the white Of an egg.
Another method of covering the nauseous
taste of castor or cod liver oil is to put a
tablespoonful of strained orange juice in
wine glass, pour the oil into the center
of the juice, then squeeze a few drops of
lemon juice upon the oil and rub some
of the juice on the edge of the glass.

to boil for about half minute, after
which it is allowed to rest for five min
