The Meade Claim.

The celebrated Meade claim is one of the
most remarkable known. More money has
been spent by the government In printing
documents relating TO the case than the en-
tire sum demanded, which IS 500, 900
That amount was lent TO Spain by MIR
Meade, father of General Meade, to help
buy Florida When the United States
purchased Florida from Spain. this coun
try agreed, as part Of the bargain, to az
sumo all debts outstanding on Florida 3
account OF such debts. that owed 10 Mr
Meade was the principal one. 1t has never
been paid and never will be paid, because
as one congressman said frankly. it is too
much cash to hand over in lump Spain
Is willing to liquidate the claim if congress
will declare formally that the United
States refuses to pay. but congress has not
acted on the proposition.

THANKSGIVING OBSERVATIONS
How the Day Is Observed In Out-of-the
Way Places.

Half of the observers of Thanllsgiv-
ing day do not know how the other
half spend that fine old Puritan fcsti-
val.
On the plains of Montana and Wyom-
ing the cowboys supplement their
Thanksgiving dinner with the grand,
mysterious mince pie, so dear to the
traditions of the day. 1t is the chef
d'Guvre of the prairie cook, and the
boys drop their lassos and revolvers to
watch the operation with breathless
awe and expectancy.
Another picture incidentally illus
trates the perils of gossip, particularly
in a case where vigilance is the price
of the dinner; and the fattcncd goose
mysteriously vanishes, stuiling and all.
The women folk will no doubt do up
the affairs of their neighbors to their
own mutual satisfaction; but, mean
while, empty is the oven, goose is
goner'
Truly, this festival of the last Thurs
day in November ought to be universal
there are SO many general as well rs
individual reasons for giving thanks.
We can be thankful that the elections
are over-that Christmas is coming
that the beginning of frost is the end
of yellow fcver-that people have set
tied, or at least dropped. the question,
sis marriage Il failure?" And un-
fortunate indeed is he that cannot at
least fall back upon the stoical old
maxim and be thankful that things
are no worse than they are"

which are displayed for sale in the

bought a pair for use upon your eve.
ming slippers.
Well, the brides OF the season, who
are always on the lookout for some.
thing new, have turned the beautiful,
filagree shoe decorations into real
feature OF the wedding trousseau. In
stead OF using them merely as finishing
touches for the bridal slippers, they
nre used throughout the honeymoon
in many novel why's.
For wedding occasions silver tips
and heels are generally chosen, as they
harmonic better with the white gowns
which bride usually wears. The tips
and heels are fastened upon her satin
slippers and are permitted to flash
and gleam as they peep out from UNI
der her gown in the long bridal walk
up tho church aisle.
After the ceremony, as the bride
dawns her travelling dress the silver
shoe trimmings are quickly placed
upon her travelling shoes and are
worn on the first day OF the honey
moon ms the something new" which
every bride must wear for luck.
Later they are put upon the slippers
which the bride wears at her first re-
ception. And when she has worn
them at all the important occasions
which grace the first season OF the
brides life, the silver tips and heels
the emblems OF good luck-are taken
off to be put away with the bridal
veil and a rose from the bridal bou-
quet.
Ii one might peep INTO the future,
the silver tips and heels might be seen
adorning a debutante's slippers and
perhaps in time. they may be 1.-THE
