The MAUoH CHUNK Democrat, the

of the same kind, last week kindly
dropped this little hint Of intimation
regarding the policy of the Cassidyites
In the future: "The coming POLITICAL
issue will be between personal fitness
and worth on one side and office
brokers, boodlers and corruptionists
on the other side for all county and
municipal Offices"

In breadmaking the potatoes should be
sound and good as well as well cooked.
The potato must be rubbed into heflouT
dry, and if 'wetted with milk instead Of
water the result will be so much the bet
ter. In the same way cold potatoes may
be used in making the paste for pud-
ings (boiled), pies and cakes, with the ad'
dition of dripping or fat of some kind
and little baking powder. Hot potato
cake is light, easy Of digestion and nour.
ishing and might often take the place Of
more expensive cakes at tea time.

POLITICAL PARTIES have their place in
popular government, and one will
dispute the trite axiom that thev are a
necessity, but, says the Scranton Truth,
it is the Independent citizen, after all,
who saves the state when parties de-
,;enerste into despotic machines or be-
come the servitoIs of arrogant bosses
who have grown so over confident of
their power that they feel they can
dictate the nomination o any candidat
however unworthy, and rely on partisan
subserviency for his election. On such
occasions the efforts of the in
dependent citizen serve the double
purpose of defeating the undesirable
nominee and teaching the bosses a
wholesome lesson in regard to the real
source Of power This is not only nee
essarv, but imperative, when a political
nutocrat becomes so puffed with his
own importance that he imaginessne is
the power and the people are his
puppets, and that the party that
toleiates him at its heli his personal
property.

Likewise Good Luck ON a Pheuomenally
Good Imagination.


The scene Of the following incident
was about 40 miles from Gloversville,
N. Y, on beautiful little lake just
across the tahlalaul 8t Piscco lake, in
Hamilton county. The day was all that
a fisherman could desire, aud every con
dition was right for good fishing. a
party of three Narl iutho b0at-uamely,
l.. q. Everest his friend, Professor
Spencer from Brooklyn, and the writer
They had taken nearly 90 pickerel in
less than half day, and the size was
good, weighing from 2l to G pounds.
The last turn around the lucky point"
was being made before we started for
home. Everest, who was trolling one of
the lines, said; I've got another He's
big one from the way he pulls" Ever
est let him play at one time nearly 200
feet Of line before the fish could be
turned. When he had been brought
into sight, he was not so large as some
we had already in the boat, but there
was an unusual motion all about him.
Soon the line was drawn so tightly it
was necessary to let him play again.
When brought back, it was discovered
that a large pickerel had attempted to
swallow the one on the hook, which was
now quite exhausted.
The big fellow still followed, shark
like, for the dead body Of his victim,
which, however. we were not disposed
to give up. just as Everest was about
to swing the fish on his hook into the
boat the professor took up his oar, hop
ing TO strike and thus capture the large
one. The movement of the oar attract
ed the attention Of the fish, and in a
twinkle he made a pass at it. The blade
was about inches wide, but his jaws
grated across the upper and lower edges
saving a groove on either side with his
sharp teeth. The professor, by carrying
his oar forward with the movement Of
the fish, at the same time raising it from
the water, landed the huge fellow into
the boat.
He weighed i3i pounds. The fish on
the hook only weighed three pounds, but
showed signs of battle, being bitten in
several places. Upon opening him we
found, as is often the case, a fish of
smaller size in his stomach This one
showed signs of life and was opened.
We then discovered a pretty little gold
ohatelaine watch and were surprised
that the time agreed with our watches
and that it was running,
More than pleased with our fishing ex-
petition, we returned 10 the Adirondack
hotel and informed Landlord George A.
Mccoy Of our good luck, at the same
time showing the watch. In less than
two minutes all the guests about the
house were In the office, and among the
number was a pretty young lady from
Albany, who said that the watch was a
token Of friendship which she had priced
very highly. When on the lake in the
early part Of the day it had fallen into
the water, and, she supposed, was lost
Il Is needless to say she was overj0yed al
its recovery Albany Journal

A stringed instrument suspended in a
favorable position near pianoforte will
sound when tones corresponding TO the
open strings are produced on the piano
forte. The volume of the answering
tone will depend upon atmospheric con
ditions, the quality and color Of the per
5uading tone and the sensitiveness of the
responding material. There is a famil-
lar anecdote told of a famous tenor. who
by singing tie tone that was consonant
with that Of a wineglass, could make the
glass shiver so violently that it would
fall to pieces. Il is because Of this tonal
sympathy that the cause Of "A harsh, rat
ting tone that may suddenly appear in a
pianoforte is detected with difficulty
Though it may appear to be in the in
strument, it is often far away and may
come from a loose globe or pendant on a
chandelier Even a key in a door has
been known 20 be the guilty cause.-St

A DlABOLlCAL CONSPIRACY.
But for an Error the Barcelona Outrage
Womb IInva neen More TcrrIhIn.


Would Have Been More Terrible,
BARCELONA, Nov lG-It is settled that
Judge Domenech has in his possession the
names Of all the persons who were con-
nected with the bomb outrage at the
ldcee theatre last week, and that the cul-
prits are already In custody. Il is said
that the plot was arranged by several an
archists. The plan was one which, n IL
had been successfully carried out, would
have involved wholesale destruction Of
life.
Each OF the oonspirators was 70 carry a
bomb into the theatre and 10 station them
selves In different parts Of the gallery.
One Of the number was deputed TO turn
OF the gas lights and at this signal the
bombs were 70 be thrown. The man who
was 20 put out the lights failed % find the
meter, and one Of his companions, grow
ing impatient al waiting for darkness,
threw his bomb down into the stalls.
Judge Domenech earned a reputation as a
/ prosecutor by stamping out the Black
/ Hand criminal organization in Andalusia
some years ago, aud the prisoners will un-
I doubtedly be rigdly dealt with when they
come before him.

FR1NGED DOLLY WITH WREATH.


speak, or from the four opposite points,
threads are drawn down to the stitched
line. After this marking there remain
four triangular spaces of solid linen, and
the threads OF these must be picked out
with the needle and drawn round and
adjusted to form a perfect circle of
fringe. The stitching is then ripped, and
the edge is hemstitched, after which the
fringe is combed out and trimmed till
exactly even.
This dolly is effectively embroidered
with wreath Of morning glories, worked
with olive green leaves and old pink
flowers. The dolly is usually one of a
set, each of which shows a wreath of a
different flower, but the same design
might well be repeated in all. Indeed if
the doilies are to be used for carafes and
the like and are not designed for finger
bowls, the latter plan is by far the best,
Too great a mixture of either colors OF
flowers can never be good, and the sweet,
fresh morning glory will bear repeating
again and again.
