Some young women of this city have
tried a new experiment in housekeeping
with eminent success, and there is nc
reason why other young women who are
earning their own livelihood should not
follow their example with great benefit
to themselves. The ladies had been board
ing, and they agreed that this sort of life
was unsatisfactory. The monotony Of
boarding house life became uncomfortable.
They resolved to break loose and estab-
fish a ''menage of their own" A nice
house was obtained in n of the most
eligible" streets of the city.
The servant was an immigrant, for it
was part.of the experiment to instruct
their help in their own way. The ladies
take turns in ordering the next days din
der in certain understood limits, so that
the longings of zach individual for beef
steak and onions, corned beef and cab
bage, or beef a la mode, or any other spe-
cial dish could be gratified- They also
take turns in the management of the
house. They live in entire harmony;
they are at peace with the cook; they
have ample time to attend to their sever
al vocations and for occasional amuse-
ments, and they ave enough from their
former board expenses TO pay for their
summer holidays.-Albany Journal.

A Michigan woman, much interested
in the fresh air work, suggests that city
ome engaged in this work should in
vite the country mothers who have en-
~tertained children at their homes to visit
in the city homes a few days in the win
ter. These farmers wives, who take in
the city waits ut a time when summer
work presses hardest and summer heat
is most oppressive, need a change of
scene almost as much as do the mothers
and children in the tenements, and for
lack of change and rest it is said that
farmers wives form a large per cent. of
the inmates of insane asylums. 1t is not
the hard work, but want of companion
ship, the isolation from books, music,
lectures, the theater, the desolation of
intellectual starvation.
In some OF the western towns a move
ment is on foot to establish clubs among
the country women, where it is believed
a higher mental development is possible
than in the city, because no other form
of recreation will distract attention.
The plan is to divide each county into
sections and organize a woman's club in
each section. These country clubs will
cooperate with those in the cities for
the interchange of ideas and the forming
of friendships mutually beneficial.-New
York Sun.

Will Carry No Immigrants.

LONDON, Dec. 12.-Mr. Peters
secretary of the North Atlantic
Steamship Association, state that in
view of the American regulations in
regard to immigrants the associa.
ton, at an extraordinary meeting
held to-day, decided to carry on its
vessels only saloon and second class
passengers from January l.
1t was also decided TO materially
reduce the number of sailings during
1893, and to raise the saloon and
second cabin rates in order to make
up the loss that will be incurred
through abandoning the steerage
traffic.
All special excursion rates to the
Chicago Columbian Exhibition have
been withdrawn by the association
and there is no doubt that this &C.
tion will result in a large falling of
in the number of foreign visitors to
the Worlds Fair.

MAXWELL MAY WELD THE
AXE.
A Strong Anti-Hill Man Slated
for Fist Assistant POST
master General.


ALBANY, Dec. 18. All doubts as to
the attitude of the incoming admin.
istration toward the Hill-Murphey
machine in this State were set at
rest to-day when it was announced
on good authority that the position
of First Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral under the incoming admins
tration will be filled by the Hon.
Robert A. Maxwell, of Batavia,
Genessee County. This is the Of
fee filled under the last administra-
tion by the Hon. Adali E. Steven
son, e-President-ele of the
United States.
Ever since the revolt against Hill
began, Mr.. Maxwell has been lead
er among the anti-Hill Democrats.
He is a power throughout the west
ern portion of the State, outside of
Erie County, and two years ago,
when Hill first began to intrench
himself in power, Mr.. Maxwell held
his counties solid for the Cleveland
Democracy. For this he was drop
ped as Superintendent of Insurance,
Governor Hill appointing ex-senator
James F. Pierce, of Brooklyn, to
succeed him.
Since then he has been one of the
most active of Hills opponents.
He was leader in the agitation
against the snap convention of last
February and a prominent figure at
the anti-snap mass meeting that met
here to protest against the conven-
tion held in Syracuse in May. In
the present fight between the two
f,ctions a more prominent partisan
would be hard to find, and the fact
that he will have at his disposal the
appointment of all the postmasters
below the Presidential grade is not
at all pleasing in the Hill-Murphy
faction. These appointments in his
State number about $500, aud no
Hill man will be for moment con-
sidered.
Mr.. Maxwell's record in State
politics is good. He was elected to
the State Committee in 1880, was
twice chosen State Treasurer, serv-
ing from 1881 to 1885, and was
State Superintendent of Insurance
from 1886 to 1891. All of these Of
fees he filed with credit.

Our people are very much put out
about the raise of coal at Bernice
and feel that they are being unfairly
dealt with. OF course they are
at liberty to GO elsewhere. but all
things considered, is it quite the
right step after receiving the patron
age of our citizens for the past
thirty or forty years ? The Pittston,
Scranton and Wilkes Barre coal is
placed on our markets for one dol
lar less per ton than our own home
production. 1t would appear in
this case that home trade is not
wanted. The officials of the Ber-
nice mines ought to make some re-
duction to customers who are obliged
to have their coal delivered some
