"~DELMoNICo'S AT SIX"

The only specially last night that in
fused a ray Of life into the damp and
depressing connection called belmont
co.'s at Six" now at the Bijou Theatre
was the reading of the election returns,
neatly done by Frank Tannehill, jr. II
these returns could only be read every
night "Delmonico's at Six" Mr.. Glen
MacDonough's three-act farce, would be
a great success. Without them all of
the sparkle and effervescence must be
gone.
II all tarces had been quarantlned on
their way from France during the last
ten years, and New York a never seen
during that time any specimen of that
form Of entertainment, then "Delmonico's
at Six would be a delightful surprise.
New York. alas! has been inundated with
farces-and very good ones-so that this
latest effort turns out to be a dreary
chestnut. the staleness of which Is rem
dered less annoying by Mr.. M~acDonough's
occasional vita wit that one of these
days may be hot-housed into something
valuable.
The farce Is full of doors into which
ell the characters are pushed In turn.
AS no ~well-regulated house has doors in
the ceiling, and Mr.. Marlborough needs
a few more, he is obliged to use a big
screen, and a lounge that opens. With
these accessories, he Is able to tell his
story. And what Is 1t? Our old familiar
chums. the jealous wife, the pink Dom

IS IT A SATRAPY9

Gov. Flower issued a proclamation be-
fore election calling for an honest vote.
This was timely in view OF the rumors
that prevailed of intended frauds on the
ballot-box. 1t is creditable to the peo-
pie that the election was a tolerably
fair one. and that there was very little
rioting OF rowdyism at the polls in this
city.
But there Is one thing that demands,
should receive, the attention OF the
authorities, now that the contest is over.
The people are entitled to know whether
Coney Island Is a satrapy he'd under the
rule OF an Independent autoCrat, or
whether 1t is subject to the laws of the
ST.
The boss OF the island has dened the
mandates of the Supreme Court,
enforced his W laws at his
own will and violated the rights
of citizens. No doubt his lawlcss
course had its ~compcnsatlng advantages

to escape punishment for all that.

Whoever wants to make the very most
acceDtable Christmas gift at small ex-
pense should construct a Friendship
Calendar. Make of smooth note paper
slips for a calendar of 1865 pages. Block
them and gum them to a cardboard IL
Illuminated to taste and punched to hang
upon the wall. The calendar can be
thus affixed just as is done with those
ready for sale in the shops. The sepa-
rate slips should have been filled by
marking on them the days of the month
and week, distributing them among as
many different friends as possible to
decorate them to their fancy and add
their own autographs with some senti-
ment. This forms a pleasant reminder
throughout the whole year. and these
little gifts, wherever they have been at
tempted. have always been declared the
most satisfactory present received.

A SEVERE BUT USEFUL LESSON

The defeat of Judge Maynard for the
Court of Appeals is a fitting rebuke Of
the insolence OF party leadership, which,
supreme In its power of dictation in its
own organization, believes that it can bid
defiance to public sentiment II carry
out it's will however mush in conflict
with the wishes and principles Of the
people.
Every good citizen of New York must
feel increased self-respect, greater reli-
ance on the majesty and s~acrcdncss Of
the law and more pride in his state
from the result of yesterdays election,
for it proves that in matters really af-
fecting the well being Of the community
the people may be relied upon to protect
the public interests. however Indifferent
they may be to the ordinary scramble
of politics. The machine that suffered
disastrous defeat yesterday believed it.
self powerful enough to dictate to its
party ana to the people.
Its leaders. skiiful and energetic,
would allow no interference with their
will. Five of them got together and
detrmiend that a dishunOraOie partisan
service should be rewarded with a judge
ship in the highest court of the State.
The best men in the Democratic ranks
protested against the outrage. Prudent
politicians urged the danger of the eN-
pertinent But the bosses were deter
mined, and Maynard was put in nomt-
nation. The result is as complete an
overthrow, not OF Democracy and Of
Democratic principles. but of machine
methods and boss dictation, as was ever
accomplished in the history OF the State.
This Is made evident by the rebuke
delivered everywhere to ring rule. In
Buffalo. at one end of the State, Lieut.
Gov. Sheehan is practically swept out
OF political existence. In Brooklyn, at
the other end OF the State, the great
power of the Mclaughlin ring is broken.
NJ this city all the efforts of the organi-
cation failed TO prevent the falling off
Of half the Democratic majority from
Maynard.
The victory for a pure judiciary car
ried down with 1t the excellent Demo
cratic State ticket, probably the Legis-
lature and almost certainly the Consti-
tutional Convention. Yet no one can re-
greet what 1t has cost Better the loss
OF every political office than the degra-
dation OF the highest court of the State
The result of the election is a severe
rebuke to Gov. Flower, whose un'
fortunate appointment Of Maynard
as a reward for a partisan
service is thus condemned by
the people. 1t is also a warning to thu
leaders who have presumed too mucl
on the subserv!ency of followers AM
nave been too autocratic and selfish II

who has had cosmos in her garden
this Summer? 1t is a flower fast coming
into favor. 1t blooms now in the
Autumn, but florists are trying to make
it open in August. The flowers are
white, pink or deep rose. The size of
the flower varies from 2 to 2 IL inches in
diameter, the petals. of which there are
eight, being light and graceful in tex
ture. The head. or anthodium, is COM
posed of yellow ~fiorets, and Is about
half an inch in diameter. The whole
effect of the bloom is pleasing in the
highest degree, and florists say the
flowers are especially good for purposes
of decoration, as they improve in size
and color after cutting n remain fresh
for a long time.

Outlets for breading should be cut

size foi serving. Cover them with boil

minutes. Drain and dry. Dip them in
beaten egg n bread crumbs. Beat
the egg only enough to blend the yolk

of water to each egg. Saute IN dripping,
using not enough fat to cover, but fry
fast on one side and then on the other.
When the outlets are dipped so that the
egg covers them fully as we'll as the
bread crumbs. If the greas1 is hot
enough. the covering will adhere. Trout
should be dipped in egg and bread

order to compel the surrender OF a
political refugee who had taken shelter

PROPHETS SOAK THEIR BRows.

Some OF the men who stood upon their
hind legs yesterday and howied election
prophecies down the winds have their
hats pulled low over their eyes to-day
and are snoak!ng along side streets in
passing to and from their business. The
flower OF the lot met and foretuIi
things at SaChcm Croker's headquarters
and the r,cklcssness with which they
tossed Democratic majOrities to their
favorite candidates was worthy the sub
lime admiration which 1t received.
Jimmy Oliver led the procession with
a prediction Of 5000 majority in the
State for Maynard. He also predicted a
joyful surplus OF 1900 votes for Body
in brooklyn. and even extended his vat
donations as far as Ohio, where he re-
l~uctantly conceded Mckinley a measly
1900. Jimmy was talking through his
eyebrows. He was looking through the
blurred Trim and Thumnim Of Tam
many when he saw those gorgeous
figures. Before he went 10 bed last
night, he found out that he wasn't
enough Of a prophet TO tell fortunes in a
dime museum.
And Jimmy was not the only one.
There are thousands OF yesterdays
prophets who have gone out of business
in the last twelve hours. They probably
wish now that they had roared them
gently as a sucking dove, instead Of
having made the welkin throb II the
fire-plugs tremble with the loudnes Of
their auguries. They have found out
that the safest procedure at a hog
guessing match is to wait until the
porker is dressed and weighed. 1t seems
to 'us that the prophets who fizzled
ought to have their imaginations rinsed
out in ammonia and vaccinated.
