round the center. If one can decorate with the brush. it is very little work to increase the beauty of the pillows by painting something in the way of spray of flowers or an appropriate quotation across the Cllamois.
 A pretty one at the exchange was made of cream colored plantation. and the em- broidery was done with shades of olive silk, and olive ribbons were used to tie it. The one seam, the length of the case, should be run up lightly with the needle, so that it can be ripped open for launder- ing. Washable ribbons, which are put on with herringbOne stitches. make q very pretty band for these washable covers.
 The Bagdad squares, ill color and de signs similar to the stripes. arc a recent importation and make excellent pillows They are as vet to be found in one size only-30 inches each way-and are most desirable for the large couches. Like all the oriental stuffs, they arc pleasing il color and will endure the hardest usage without losing their freshness.

THE electricians have by no means given up the search for a means to pro pei street cars by underground electrical apparatus. MT Westinghouse has ob- tained patents for a system of operating cars by means of currents in bars con veyed underground in proper conduits Instead of using the continuous current for the supply of electricity, the alter hating current will be used, so that no current will have to be returned through the rails and water pipes. A pair of high tension lines will be laid along the line and the current will be reduced to a safe working pressure by converters and fed into short sections of the rail way conduit, so that, in the first place, there will be no travelling of the cur rent over long distances, and secondly, the current, being of the alternating character, will not produce the elec- trolytic action which seems to be the occasion of destruction to iron and lead pipes.

Perfect Crrnm Ri.rnit

There have been several calls for rec ipes for food for invalids. For a long time a member of our family could not eat yeast raised bread, and this biscuit, invented then from necessity. has proved so palatable and wholesome and so use full for the children. that it has come to be a standby. Four quarts of flour, a cup of white sugar, a traspoonful of salt, a tablespoonful of soda. tahlrSpOonfuls of cream of tartar. Mix we'll and wet with pure cream. making only moist enough to roll. If too wet, they will not be crisp. Roll rather thin and cut i'll squares tho size of soda crackers and bake. We often use white flour and sifted graham. equal parts. and they closely resemble the graham waters We buy. City folks can order them from their country friends. who have pure cream.

REVOLT IN BRAZIL.
The Navy Makes Bold Move and Block
 ades Rio JRneirO.

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-The AuGlo-Ameri- can Telegraph company, Broad street, sent out notice that the Brazilian govern ment has suspended all telegraphc service to and from that country. Until further advices are received messages for Brazil will not be accepted.
 The Herald's correspondent in Monte video telegraphs that the officers of the naval fleet now at Rio Janeiro intimated to President PciNoto that he should resign. The fleet consists of the cruisers Aquaida- ban, Republica and Trajano and three tor pedo boats. The demand of the officers was made by Admiral Custodiu Jose Mello.
 In the fortress of Santa Cruz is stationed garrison loyal to the PeiXoto administra- uon. They are under fighting orders and are awaiting an attack on the fort by the squadron. The port of Rio Janeiru has been blockaded. News has been received officially confirming the reports of the rr volt.
 PeiXoto vetoed a bill which made it i'm. possible for the vice president to become president. This enraged the naval officers and to this k attributed the revolt.

VETERANS CHOSE ADAMS.
They Elected Him as Their Commander II
 Chief.


 INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 7.-The Grand Army people will probably finish their business and leave for home this evening. Already ing has begun.
 The encampnent proper shows disposi- tion to rush through with its business rap idly. The election of officers was short, and the three following were elected, prac- tically without opposition:
 John J. B. Adams of Massachusetts, com mander in chief; Colonel l. N. Walker of Indiana, senior vice commander, and J. C. Bigger of Texas, junior vice commander.
 The new commander in chief, John J. R. Adams, or Jack Adams, as he is called at home, is one of the most popular veterans in New England. For years he has been identified with the Grand Army as one of the most active and influential members of the Department of Massachusetts. The only report of interest during the session was that of the commander in chief, Weis- sert, which was devoted almost entirely tC pensions.
 An episode occurred which is likely tc cause whole lot of trouble The Ladies ot the G. A. R. are at swords points with the Relief Corps and have never been recognized as body by the G. A. K. Commander Blodget of a Chicago post appeared at the door with four ladies' and Mir. WeisSert in Vited them up, supposing they were Reliet Corps women, and one of them, Mrs. Sher iff, president of the Ladies of the G. A R made bitter speech against the Reliei Corps.
 The next enCampment goes to Pittsburg There was no other applicant.

COMMISSIONER LoCuREN has ordered

COMMISSIONERS LoCHREN has ordered an examination of the files of 200, ,0O0 pension claims prior to the passage of the disability act, and that all cases found to have been completed be promptly forwarded for allowance. Examination of a block of 2,0O0 dis closed the fact that over 70 per cent of them had been completed. All these claims were for disabilities of service origin, and yet the claimants had been kept waiting over four years owing to the unfair preference that had been given to claims under the act of 1890. Commissioners Tanner and Raum found a more congenial occupation in misin- terpreting that act, fradulently increas- ing pensions without re-examination, and distributing favors to parasites, while the 100000 waiting claimants were sidetracked.

THE DEADLOCK BROKEN.

The members of the democratic town committee evidently accepted the ad- vice given by the DEMOCRAT in the friendly spirit in which it was offered, for last evening the deadlock over the election of a chairman was broken with out much ado. Perry c. Morris, the new chairman, is an old-line democrat, conscientious and conservative, and will no doubt unite the party, bring about harmony and cause the hearty coopera- tion of all democrats for democratic success. He is of the retiring, rather than the aggressive, disposition, and has lived in Waterbury his whole life and so knows many things connected with pol itics which can be learned only by ex- perlence. He will accept the position, which has come to him without any seeking, and do what he can for the whole party, without regard to any of it's parts.
 Now that the trouble has been amica- bly, settled the committee would do well in the future to steer clear of the danger which brought about strained relations between the members. They should re member that no man can serve two masters and that therefore it is suicidal to hand the party policy and plan of ac- , ton over to the enemy, because of friendship for reporter on republican paper, who, protesting to be democrat, allows his enthusiasm to run away with his good judgment.

We have had and have permanently ill America eminent Russian artists. We are now to have permanently also 8 famous Russian novelist, Vladimir Koro- lenko, who has declared his intention to live hereafter in the United States. Korolenko in his own land is second only in reputation to Tolstoi himself. He writes along the same lines in many re liberty and the uplifting of the people. For this offenSe he has been three times banished to Siberia. Perhaps these re- peated banishments have at length be- come somewhat monotonous to the gifted writer, and for that reason he comes to America. He married Russian wo-
 man physician of noble character and shining culture. IL is romantic incl dent ill the history of the couple that
 ;hey met and loved first while both were exiles in Siberia. Korolenko knows life from all sides. Though gentleman born, he was so poor that he supported himself while a student at the university by coloring maps. Whether he writes in English or in Russian and has it trans lated into English, this strong, fine au-
 thor will be welcome to America. We
 are glad to have scholarly, cultured,
 manly literary men come and live among us, Vladimir Korolenko.

NEW SOFA PILLOWS.
Square, Round and Roll Shaped, They AL
 ways DeAutify a Room.


 Nothing in furnishing room helps so much to give an attractive atmosphere to it as numberless pillows on the couch, settee, long reclining chair on the Jap Rnese stool-here, there and everywhere. A great variety of shapes and sizes, covered with different but harmonious materials, secures the best result.
 Ticks of fine camhric are used for the under cover of eiderdown pillows, as bed ticking is too stiff, but whatever is used be sure that it is fine and closely woven. Otherwise the filling. whether of down or feathers, will work through and be sides wasting be source of continual annoyance.
 The round head cushion is great ac- quisition to the comfort of high backed chair. This is most simply made, hay. ing puffs at the end of dull red china crape and broad band of chamois skin
