championship again this year and representing
America in case a race is secured.
Oxford has cabled announcing the receipt of
the Yale-Hsrvard letter and expressing a wish
that the race might be arranged. letter will
doubtless follow. but until its arrival here the
college oarsnen will have TO remain content
with planning the most favorable terms and in
ducements they can offer the visitors.
The Yale boating managers are very reticent
on the matter of the Oxford cablegram. refus-
ing to make public its contents and stating that
nothing definite whatever has been determined
and from business standpoint nothing can be
given out until the details Of the arrangement

The Kitchen.
Brooklyn Eagle.

Brooklyn Eagle
| have in mind one city kitchen,
which certainly is a model of its
kind. The mistress objects to
whitewashed or papered walls. In
stead, hers are painted in a real
coffee color, which can be wiped
regularly, thus removing dust and
stain. AS the next best substi-
suite for a hardwood floor she uses
linoleum, which she keeps oiled
and waXed as she would the form
err, where she fortunate enough to
find such a luxury in the city
house. She has a wire screen closet,
in a cool place, for vegetables and
berries, which she does not like to
put on the ice, and she has a large,
shelfiess closet under a wooden
awning, in the back yard, for such
articles as step-ladder, lawn mower
and ironing board, which generally
are left to accumulate in the eX-
tension, or must be carried up and
down the cellar stairs. She denies
the statement that girls do not APP
preciate a clean, convenient, SAM
tary kitchen, for more than once,
she claims, the kitchen has been
an inducement for good help to re-
turn in the fall.

Five Indictments for Embezzlement

NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. D.
The grand jury today presented
five indictments for embeZZlement
and misrepresentation of funds,
against Recorder Whitaker and
his two clerks, James and William
Barry. The embezzlement will
amount to nearly $4,000, and con-
sisted of fines turned into court,
which were never paid into
the city treasury. In all
probability Mr.. Whitaker and
his clerks will be suspended
and in case of conviction an i'm
parchment will follow. Judge
Whitaker has born an excellent
reputation as recorder, and it is be-
lieved that he can clear himself OF
all charges except carelessness, and
over confidence in his subordi-
mates. The accused officers sur
rendered at once to the sheriff, and
were released by Judge Noise on
$1,000 bonds.

THE MONEY BULLS,
Hopeful for the Repeal, Are Buying
Stocks.

WALL STREET, New YORK, Aug.
22.-Tll a. m. The belief is stead
ily growing, in the Stock Exchange
and financial circles, that the Sher-
man silver law will be repealed.
This, coupled with the constant ar
rival of gold, has created quite a
little bullish sentiment at the
Board, and operators are more
willing than for some time to buy
stocks. AS a result, the market,
after the opening of business, be-
gan to harden, and prices
rose one-half to one and
three-eighths per cent. Chicago
gas distillers, sugar and western
union were in good demand and
led upward in movement. Later
it lost part of advance at noon
speculation and was steady in tone
at reaction. Steamship EMS which
arrived last night, brought $4,000
pounds of gold from southampton,
three million from Bremerhaven,
and two million one hundred and
seventy thousand marks from the
Deutsche bank, Of Berlin.

Feather, lace and ribbon fans

The old-fashioned rolled hem is
again popular for ruffles: Quaint
bags to carry with Old-fashiOned
gowns are again in vogue.
Among the newest things in
millinery are hats and bOnnets Of
q rather coarse, yellOwish-brown
straw, called "sunburnt braids."
There seems to be but little
fancy for anything but flat trim
mings or close rufies on the skirts.
The very full founce of thin goods
flies about too much, and not to be
as as popular as when the goods is
heavy enough to keep in place. For
the most part, the flying about
suggestions in dresses are confined
to the shoulders and sleeves.
