Travellers may be interested in the
news to the effect that Theodore Bendit,
New York drummer, has recovered n
judgment of $40 against the Palmer
House of Chicago for coat and over
coat which were stolen from his room.
Mr.. Bendit brought his suit as test
case for the benefit Of commercial trav-
elers who have to stay in Chicago.
1t has been a well settled principle of
law in most of the states for long time
that hotel keepers were liable for the loss
or theft. of guests wearing apparel.
provided the guest himself was not at
fault or guilty of negligence which led
to the loss or theft. Indeed, in New
York state this principle has been so
broad that the legislature has seen fit 10
restrict it, presumably on account of the
heavy damages several times recovered
against hotel keepers prior 10 1888.

The idea Of the congressman from a
state forming themselves into a patron
age board and taking charge of all the
offices, and especially the filling of them,
is one that "does not wash" The Mis-

t. wrangling as soon as they got their
little board into operation. Senator Vest,
who has been designated president of the
board. soon wearied of it and sent in a
formal resignation, and said that he
would not be held responsible for any

that the congressman should go it alone,

Third Term TnIll.

The most astounding report which Is
brought here, and Mr.. Benedict was au-
thority for it, is the suggestion contained
in the fattering remarks made by many
of the Office seekers to the president. A
large proportion of them, certainly more
than one-half, say 70 him that they expect
to have the privilege Of voting for him
again in 1896. Some of them try TO ex-
plain why by asserting that party lines
will be so changed, and he will have built
up so strong a personal following, and 1t
will be so necessary 10 be sure that HIS
policy will be carried out, that the coun-

The New York millionaire to Reside Per-
manentlyi In England.
Since William Waldorf Astor has
purchased Clifeden, the Duke of
Westminster's famous country seat
near London, for $780, 900, his
friends have accented as truth the
news of The Press a year ago that
Mr.. Aston means to live in England
permanently. An Englishman who
is now in New York and who is in the
line of succession to the House
of Lords, says that Mr.. Astor's
popularity in London is enormous.
OF course he will never cease to be an
American, but if he becomes an
English subject there is no reason
why he should not have a POLITICAL
career over there, and perhaps a
title. He failed in New York
politics, ran for congress and was
beaten by Governor Flower, and it
would be easier, perhaps, today for
him to become Lord Waldorf in
England than Governor of New York
of his native state at home. The
peerage, as my English friend.
admitted, is often a question of
money-oftener certainly than
political success in the United States.
For instance, money has made only
one governor of New York, the pres
emit one, but it has made a great
many peers in Great Britain. Money
is banking, as in tie case of the
Rothschilds and Barings; money in
beer, as with the Bass, Guinness and
Allsopp coronets, and money in coal,
in land, in whisky, as in innvmerable
other cases.

To persons of artistic tastes n of
the rarest displays at the Worlds
Fair will be the collection of laces
from Italy. 1t is a twice told tale,
how when sweet Queen Margherita
came to the throne she was troubled
sorely over the poverty and distress
she found among the peasant girls
and women Of Italy. On some of her
visits to them she found in a poor hut
an old fisher wife knitting lace. 1t
was of q pattern for which Italy!,s
shops had been famous centuries
before. Queen Margherita under
took to'restore the lost industry and
give paying employment to the poor
girls and women. She assembled a
number of girls in a little school and
had the, old woman teach them lace
making. These in turn taught
others, and new patterns were devised.
For years gentle Margherita worked
at her chosen task with enthusiasm.
The.result has equaled her expecta-
tion. The poor women have paying
work; Italy is becoming again famous
for her beautifullaces. The collection
sent by Queen Margherita is the most
valuable in the world. It includes

There has been considerderable talk
lately about whether men should give
up taeir seats in a street car to
women. In the west there is no
question, western gallantry never
h~esitating about what is the proper
thing to de. But in the older states
where there are SO many women, like
wise SO many men, it is asked why a
man should keep bobbing up and
down every minute he is aboard a
street ar. The best known rules Of
street car etiquette dictate a middle
course. A boy should always sur
render his seat to q grown woman.
1t tends to check somewhat that
nnwhipped savagery which is
rampant in the breast Of the average
male youth and to give him an idea
OF polish and courtesy in his manner
toward ladies besides. "A man should

choler. Precautlon..

Mrs. Louise Russell Smith,. A. NJ,
NJ. D., medical missionary at Van,
Turkey, in Asia, writes Of her exper-
fences and observations to the New
York Tribune under date OF Febru-
airy Z, 1898:
"In watching this epidemic several
facts have been very evident. First.
The infection IS powerless among
people who are careful to cook all va
ter and food. We worked among the
people without regard to infection,
staying with them for hours, applying
friction, etc., but we drank boiled wa
ter and ate hot food. In a native
town near us, where sanitary rules
were strictly obeyed, one of the wo-
men, in bravado, drank three cups Of
unboiled water, saying to the rest,
"Let's see what it will do" She died
in just twenty-four hours.
Second-The majority of cholera
cases can be saved if pgeper means
are used at the very begfnning-that
is, just as soon as abdominal trouble
shows itself. Our treatment consist
ed of rest, opium, camphor and cap
slcum.
Third-There are come cases that
nothing can touch, although attacked
at the onset. These seem to be cases
where such an amount of poison has
entered the system that death comes
almost before symptoms. We were
called one afternoon to see a woman
who had been spinning the previous
evening. About midnight she en-
tered her husbands DON saying she
was sick. When we saw her at ;
o'clock she was unconscious, and she
died early in the evening.
Fourth-In this epidemic the mum
Der of rapid conv~alescences had beer
small. Most of the patients passed
from the disease into a typhoid state
in which some ultimately died o,
uraemia, while others finally recov
cred health.
Fifth-Water taken to appease tn,
almost intolerable thirst during tn,
acute stage is absolutely fatal. W.
saw this fact demonstrated again ant
again. The most striking instance
was of a woman who rallied from the
collapse and was two days along in al
unusually favorable convalescence
That night, when the family wa
asleep, she arose, went down to til,
court and drank all she wanted. TIL.
relapse came within an hour, and sh,
died the next day.
Finally, it takes more than Sigh
cold to put an end to a cholera ep
idemic. The disease did not appear
in Erzroom until after the heat of tn,
summer was over, and it did not ge'
from Persia to Van until we'll on ii
November. We are hoping that thi
unusually severe cold that we are nov
enjoying may prevent a return in tn
spring. But that time must decide
