Noiseless Sinners.

1t is a good plan to have pair of
noiseless slippers on hand in cases OF
nursing. Warm, serviceable ones may
be made by ripping the soles from an
old pair of leather ones; knock off the
heels and cover both sides with thick
wooden cloth, overseaming on the
edges. Good material for this as well
as the uppers may be found in old
coats or trousers. Cut the uppers by
the old slippers and line with red fan.
mel. Sew and press the seams in the
cloth, then in the lining. Fit together
and bind around the top. Slip the
heel stiffening saved from the old
slippers between lining and outside
and haste in place. Then sew upper
and sole together, holding both wrong
sides out, then turn.

Important Decision Affecting Canadians
who work Across the Border.
SUSPENSION BRIDGE, N. Y, April A.
A decision rendered by Collector j. j.
Low. Of this port, bids fair to terminate
the bitter rivalry between the laborers
on the American side of the river and
tho9e on the Canadian side. 1t costs
much less TO live in Canada than in the
United States, consequently the work
men acrcss the border have had an ad-
vantage over their American brethren.
Finally an adjustm mt has been brought
about by Major Lows Interpretation OF
the alien contract labor law, as advised
by Secretary Carlisle, which he thinks
relates TO contracts made in foreign
country only.
According to this reading Of the law,
contract made within the United
States, although made with foreigner,
is not prohibited by any existing law.
The collector says ne has no authority
to close the gates against foreign la
borers, hence the laborers on this side
will have to retire with their COM

only lately been vested with the

CULTIVATE THE APPETITE.
Importance Of the Proper Preparation Of
Food.


Food.
Altogether too much time and talk
are expended on what we shall eat and
what we shall drink. Dainty dishes
are all very we'll in their way, but in
many families their preparation seems
to be the chief end and aim OF exist
encc. No sooner is one meal cleared
away, than plans are laid for some
thing new and appetizing for another
What TO eat forms the subject Of con-
versation in little gatherings OF all
sorts OF course, cooking-schools and
the general interest in culinary matters
have something to do with this, but the
subject, like all others, is in very great
danger Of being overdone Especially
Is this the case where there are young
and growing children. They gather
from all that is going on about them
that eating seems TO be the principal
interest Of the family and friends, and
Il Is not difficult TO see to what this
will lead. The little appetites are pam
pered, and the minds are filed with
fastidious notions about dishes and the
way to serve them.
Too much importance cannot be at
tached TO good, plain cooking and the
proper preparation OF food, but eating
should not at any time form the prin-
cipal subject OF conversation. II is not
considered good taste TO talk about
ones food while at table; there are
topics OF conversation much more de-
sirable, and some pains should be taken
TO introduce some agreeable and inter
estinQ subject at the outset Of the meal
Do something, do anything TO avoid
the unceasing TRADE about what TO eat
and how to prepare it That sort OF
thing is well enough in its place, but Is
by no means a proper subject for gen.
eral discussion. Y. Ledger.

Eve minutes 1000 people were hurrying
TO the scene of the disaster. Among the
first 10 arrive was Frank Pardee, one OF
the operators His intention OF descend

nounccd when twenty miners stepped
forward to accompany him. They were
at once lowered into the pit and when
the carriage returned Mine Superin-
tendent Durkin, heading ten more res

given. II had on board a crowd oi
three grimy, excited miners. These
three men had been caught by the tire

THE ORGAN AN ALARMIST.
Several Months Late i'm Reporting a
Little Robbery.

The attempt of the Democratic organ to
make political capital led to an amusing
blunder on it's part yesterday. 1t had e
loaded article o. its front page, under a
big scare head, yesterday, calling attention
to a startling robbery at the residence of
Police Judge Stubs last week. Judge
Stubs was smiling when he heard Of the
publication. The robbery occurred two weeks
before the late election, at the time the
Democratic police force was out campaign
ing for Sullivan. There has been no rob-
berry or attempt at robbery since that time
I'm Judge Stubbs's neighborhood. The other
robbery under the scare head was one OF
less than a dollar from an East Wasnlng'
ton-street tea store.
The police say that these greatly exag,
gerated publications are having the effec'
of bringing tramps TO the city, for when q
tramp hears of a place where there are
many robberies and where police admins
tration is lax, he sets out for that place
Indianapolis has less of these robberies a.
this time Of the year, considering the mar
times, than other cities, in proportion to the
population.
