BELLAMYIsM TRIUMPHANT
Three Square Meals Day Furnished by .
Kansas Eating Club.

Three Square Meals q Day Furnished BY
Kansas Eating Club.
Boston Globe.l
Whatever may be the fact as to the
theories concerning national politics which
are propounded IN that famous book, "Look-
ing Backward" there is no doubt whatever
as to the practicability of Mr.. Bellamy's
ideas concerning household cooperation.
They have Deen put to the test and have
been by no means found wanting. It could
be wished, indeed. that the scene Of the tri-
umphs of Bellamyism in the field OF Co
operative cooking bore a less prosafc name
than Junction City. But this is practical
world, and the object lessons which are
daily taught in the little Kansas town can
not fail to exert widespread interest. Fifty
of the leading women of the town make up
what is aptly called the Bellamy Cooking
and Eating Club. The President of the
than year ago, is the wife of an honored
judge. AS there are many more applications
for membership than can at present be con-
sidered, it is safe to say that the Organiza-
tion. financially as well as socially, is an
assured success.
A large private residence, centrally and
conveniently located. is the headquarters of
this prosperous experiment in Bellamyfsm.
Three square Kansas meals are furnished
every day to as many as the club dining
rooms will accommodate. OF course the club
is largely a "family affair, and many house,
holds meet together, the charge Of adults
being 50 90 a week. with a reasonable reduc-
tion in rates for the young people. Un-
married folks are admitted, but an addition
al charge of so cents per week conveys Its oft
recurring hint as to the consensus of opin-
ion in the club concerning what is styled
"single blessedness." The methods OF man.
agement in this exposition of what Bellamy-
ism can do for the inner man are eminently
sensible and bnsiness-like. An Executive
Committee of three has general charge of the
work. There is an outgO OF $40 per month
for rent, and SIG week suff1ces to meet the
bills are paid on Saturday afternoon, which
is also the time for a conference with the
head cook as to the table programme for the
week to come. A great theory seems to have
tice out in the prairie country. junction
City, Kan, may yet be Mecca and an in
spiration for multitudinous tired house
keepers throughout America

Lining Of an Overcoat
NEW YORK, April 18.-Mr. Taylor, Of
Chicago, well-built, fne-looking man, ar
rived here this morning on the steamship
Servia. As he descended the gang plank of
the steamship he carefully buttoned up his
overcoat A gust Of wind caught the flap of
his coat and turned it out, revealing a rent
in the lining from which protruded few
inches of drub silk.
The silk caught the eyes of Special Gus
toms Inspectors Brown and Donohue, who
took Mr.. Taylor into the examination-room
and found that he had thirty-seven yards of
silk concealed under the lining OF his coat
Mr.. Taylor broke down and cried like q
child. He begged the officers to let him pay
the duty on tile silk to avoid the disgrace or
exposure. He said he was taking it as a
present to his wife. The inspectors took the
silk to tho seizure-room. 1t cost $50 on the
other side and the duty was $780,

TEMPERANCE COLUMN.
About the close of the CONGRESS just
UNDER THE AUSPICES Or
w. C. I. u. OF OPELOTSAs.

About the close of the Congress just
adjourned, our country was treated to
the spectacle Of one Congressman pub
fishing pamphlet in which he accused
Congressman in general of tipphng,
and one or two in particular OF being
on the floor while intoxicated and even
stopping to drink while addressing that
august body. The papers accuse this
gentleman OF making the accusation
for political reasons ;;-as to that we
cannot judge, but the worst part of the
exhibition is in the fact that while all
the charges could not be proved, neither
could they be disproved, and one is left
morally certain, that "there is some
thing rotten in Denmark" When dis
sipafion is openly INDUCED in the halls
of Congress, it is surely time for some
party to raise the cry of-Prohibition
