AN ABSURDITY

The practice of imposing upon dele.
gates elected to state convention the
duty of selecting candidate for Judge
of district composed of one or more
counties is wholly absurd. San Juan
and Whatcom counties are interested
in getting a good candidate nominated
for judge. The balance of the state is
only incidentally interested, at least
not so directly interested as the people
of this district.
The delegates selected to the county
convention ought to be free to carry out
the will of the convention as to the
nomination of candidates for state Of
fees and candidates for such offices as
have to be voted for throughout the
state.
A contest of a spirited character on a
state officer might result in getting del
egates that would be wholly unaccep-
table to the convention for judge, and a
contest for delegates for judge may
throw aside the wish and will of the
convention as to state offices and can
didates for congress.
This coming convention should take
steps to separate these districts, and
hereafter let the judicial districts con-
troll their own matter in separate con-
vention with separate delegates.

The Military Spirit.

The little United States army is Just
large enough. If it was any greater
there would be officers enough to become
insolent snobs and put on airs over civil
ians. Some of them have hard work to
keep themselves from becoming insolent
snobs anyhow, especially those whom
nature never designed for a Grant or a
Sherman.
What we should have to endure with
a large army we may infer from the
stories that come to us about the con-
duct of German officers. Wherever
they are they appear to consider them
selves bosses by divine right of the bust
ness and pleasure of the people in private
life.
In Dresden lately party of officers
walking along the street determined to
occupy the whole sidewalk themselves
and force other people into the gutter.
Civilians objected, when the officers
drew their swords and slashed promis-
cuously around among the crowd
Thereupon burly workingman snatched
a crowbar and fractured the skull
Of the leading officer, and served
him right. In another instance three
officers saw workman sitting upon the
steps of house. They ordered him to
move on, which he declined to do. Then
one of the officers drew his sword and
cut the workman about his head and
face, seriously injuring him. A Ger
man newspaper speaks of the incident
as "regrettable circumstance" That
is all.

America,s First Lighthouse.

The first lighthouse built on this con-
tinent was at st. Augustine, Fla. Its
chief use was as a lookout, whence the
Spanish people of the town could see
vessels approaching from Spain or get
notice of the coming of foes in time to
run away. The tower attracted the at
tention Of Francis Drake as he was sail
ing along the coast with his fleet of high
popped ships on his way home from pill.

So he stopped long enough to loot the
town and destroy what he could not
take away.-Washington Star.

murphy Brod."

An American citizen has made himself
so famous in Germany that his name
will stand familiar to the German peo-
pie certainly as long as the empire lasts.
Charles j. Murphy was the agent of the
United States agricultural department
for furthering the consumption and sale
OF Indian corn in Europe. There was a
prejudice against Indian meal bread be-
cause persons who did not know how to
cook it left raw, unpleasant taste to
1t, as the Frenchman does to pumpkin
pie when he attempts an imitation of
the American article. So the German
common people murmured at corn
bread, and it did not go off like hot corn
cakes till Murphy made his celebrated
invention. Murphy may or may not
have made it as a matter of fact, but it
will be called after him, Murphy brod,"
or Murphy bread, through all time. 1t
consists Of mixture of two-thirds rye
and one-third Indian meal, made after the
usual fashion of German rye bread, and
baked a long time. This is very much
like our own Boston frye and Injun"
loaf, and this hit the Teutonic taste to a
I. The cornmeal was not noticeable in
the eating of the loaf, and the admixture
of it made the loaf itself 20 per cent
cheaper.
The Murphy brod travelled speedily
through Billy's empire. In Dresden
there are two mills for grinding Amer
lean corn, and in Germany there are al
together thirteen mills. Murphy brod
has been adopted among the army "a
tons, and an immense bakery for max
ing it has been started in Hamburg. The
government is putting in mill to grind
the corn officially at Magdeburg.
Finally, during the first three months
of 1892, five times as much Indian corn
was exported to Germany as in the same
period last year. Immortal Murphy

PATHS woNDRous WARDROBE.
Her Collection OF Emeralds Puts to Shame
the Majority of ROYAL Gems.

Her Collection OF Emeralds Puts to Sh anne
the Majority of Royal Gems.
PATHS wardrobe is something that
fashion writers rave over. At every
performance she of course wears the
newest concert costume. In the opera
that follows she wears the dress requi-
site for the part she plays. The concert
costumes are the productions of the first
Partisan milliner, and one may be sure
that the willy milliner, getting an order
from Patti, would exert himself for this
queen of song as he would for no crowned
head.
Her. jewels are the most elaborate
worn by any woman outside of ROYALTY,
and even royalty's gems fade before her
matchless collection of emeralds. In
some concerts Nine. Patti wears a cos
tune of pink and silver brocade, over
which is worn delicate green satin de
imperatrice. With this costume she
wears dog collar of emeralds set with
diamonds, bouquet of roses made of
diamonds and emeralds completely COW
ering the front of her bodice. Also a
tiara, garniture and comb of emeralds
and diamonds. This bit of jeweled orna-
ment is said to be worth over So, 900. 1t
is popularity of PATHS that she will
wear nothing in the way of decoration
but what is absolutely real.
The jewel box and jewels in Faust"
are her own, and the pearls are positively
real. Her courier, whenever she sings.
is on the stage, waits for madame in the
wings and accompanies her from the
stage to the dressing room-that is, when
her careful husband, Signor Nicolini, is
not around. He is very careful of his
precious wife, and she is never on the
stage but that he is an intent observer of
everything that is going on.
PATHS passion, of course, is her appear
ance before the public. She is one of
those creatures who, without the excite
ment of public applause, could hardly
exist. The applause of the public is
positively meat and drink for her
There is no debutante more eager to
know whether she has done well than is
Patti at this day. She comes off the
stage smiling and pleased.
Her eyes sparkle, and the first thing
she asks her husband is: "Well, was
that good? Listen how pleased they
are" On being treasured that she is
the darling of the public's heart, she is
in an ecstasy of pleasure, and for the
next performance she is all the more
eager to do her best. 1t is this wonder
full desire to be at her best that upholds
her in her magnificent art.
There are few people who have
the fortune, the fame and the
great notoriety that Patti has who would !
deny themselves the many human priv |
ileges that she does merely to preserve !
her voice and to be able to maintain the
matchless charm of her art.
AT every hotel where rooms are en-
gagged for herself special stipulation is
made and rooms selected for her servants
as well. The price is never an object.
Nine. Patti and suite generally occupy |
about ten rooms and parlor in every
city in which she sings. She gives two

The day she sings. She requires perfect
rest and refuses to speak to any one on

In cities where elevated street rail-
ways are either already in operation or
to be built, IL the smoke, heat and Gin
ders of the steam engine could be done
away by using an electric motor instead
perhaps the greatest nuisance Of street
cars on stills above the houses would be
abated. 1t Is claimed that it can be
done, and proposition to this effect ia

A fair daughter of Texas christened
with bottle of wine our first real line
of battleship. the Texas, when she was
launched the other day at Norfolk. The
Texas is not fighting ship of the heav-
lest class, but when finished she will BE-
a match for French and English battle
ships of the second class in size and
armament. The Texas is battleship
of $500 tons displacement. She was
ordered six years ago by congress. But
it was not thought then that any Amer
lean marine architect could plan such a
vessel, and so models were advertised
for abroad. One was adopted that was
made by Mr.. John, of the famous Bar
row shipyards in England, so that our
first battleship has been constructed on
an English model 1t is sufficient to
say that we have now marine architects
who can plan fighting vessel fast
enough. They have learned something
In the years our new navy has been un-
der construction. The Texas was Or
dered to be built at Norfolk. It was
found, however, that no shipyard in
America had plant large enough to
construct such ship, and the new dry
dock at Norfolk had to be built first as a
cradle to receive the vessel. This, too,
took time. But our next battleship will
not be so long building; neither will it
be constructed from British plans.
