The Land of Promise

Is the mighty West, the land that ''tickled with hoe laughs harvest" the El Dorado of the miner; the goal of the agricultural emigrant. While 1t teens with all the clements of wealth and prosperity, some of the fairest and most fruitful portions of it bear harvest of malaria reaped in it's fullness by those unprotected by a medicinal safeguard. No one seeking or dwelling in a malarlal locality is safe from the scourge without Hostel ter's Stomach Bitters. Emigrants, bear this in mind. Commercial trav el,'rs sojouruing in malarious regions should carry bottle of the Bitters in the traditional gripsack. Against the effects of exposure, mental or bodily overwork, damp and unwholesome food or water, it is an infallible de- fense. Constipation, rheumatism, bil iousness, dyspepsia, nervousness and loss ot strength are all remedied by this genial restorative.

A co DLY POLICY.

Was the investigation OF the charges
against the management and methods Of
the Elmira Reformatory by the state
Charities Association a sham and a fraud
designed only to gain time and to stop
the cutlery against the savage brutality
OF BroCkway?
When GOV. Flower announced the in
vestigation as n trial. and insisted on
the suspension of Brockway during it's
progress in order to insure It's thorough
ness and fairness, was he only hood
winlting and d"ceiving the people?
Did anything occur during the trial
or has anything occurred since its clos

rity of the State Board OF Charities ami
indicate that they would find "A preju-
diced and unjust verdict. a the Brock
way managers allegc?
If not. then what Justification could
Gov. Flower offer for ordering "A new
investigation and putting B~rockway and
his accomplices on trial over again?
Would not such a Cowardly policy be
n plain and unmistakablc evidence that
political influences are stronger in the
Executive Chamber than Justice, strong
er than humanity and stronger than the
peoples will?
What excuse could there be for such a
course. especially after the Legislature
has indorsed the fairness of the former
trial and the justice of the verdict, and
has refused to interfere?

hold arrangement, placing their furni-
ture wherever possible in pairs and in
exactly corresponding positions. One old
peasant who had accumulated a little
money, and had been prevailed upon to
buy his daughter a piano, seriously con-
sidered buying another to place against
the opposite wall: their bedsteads con-
slst of great boxes, generally painted red
or green, and heaped with feather-beds,

The Evening Gown.

Much is new, these days, in the line of
overskirts. Butterfly overdresses of ac-
Gordon plated gauze are worn over silk
skirts of exactly the same shade. They
often have a finish of spangles and a
tiny frilling of narrow lace. Nothing
could be more dainty or better cal
culated to give new modishness and
freshness to Il gown which is a little
worn. Scarfs Of chiffon are draped over
the hips in panier fashion n following
the lines of the pointed bodice tie in a
soft m in front. To give the needed
weight the end are finished with IA
frill Of lace, headed by n band of thickly
%spangled ribbon. Panels are set on belts,
to hang at each hip without %fulncss. and
reach almost to the knee. This Is a
concession, perhaps, to the demand Of
fashion for paniers, but at the same time
all the bunchiness of paniers is avoided.

R OF A FEATHER.

1T is as good "a a play" as the say
ing is, to watch the antics of the two
political parties just now. The similar
ity between them is something truly
comical.
In the United States Senate the Dem
Ocrats are in a majority. But they
snarl at each other and quarrel until
they lose the advantage of their num-
berS. Their 1issensions are due to the
determined hostility of some OF them to
the Democratic President.
In the State enate the Republicans
are in a majority, but they are no more
harmonious than are the Democratic
Senators at Washington. The cause Of
the want Of harmony Is the opposition
of some of their number to the Repub-
lican boss.
In the State Senate yesterday. when
the Democratic leader. Mr.. Cantor. con-
graduated Mr.. Coggeshall on being in
the Tammany Wigwam, the latter SEN
ator repudiated the association, saying:
=" found | was in bad comp any and got

Similarly, when the Ainsworth con-
current resolution was taken w In the
Senate congratulating Senator Hil on
being In the Republican protection
camp. Mr.. Cantor declared that Mr..
Hill never sought or desired Republ!-
can praise" and led the Democratic
Senators in a refusal to approve the Hi
tariff speech.
Really, professional politicians are a
queer lot.

POOH.RAH MUST GO.

In exposing the methods of Boss Fur
gueson we called attention to the man
ner in which the State was victimized
through the useless office of Shore In

This position, about as much needed
as n fifth wheel to II coach. Is II of

In accordance with The Evening

duced by Mr.. Higgins in the Senate and
Mr.. Wray in the Assembly to abolish
the office of Shore Inspector. Yester-

Assembly after the substitution of the
Senate for the Assembly bill. The vote

MUNICIPAL OLIVERs.

There are oliver Twists in nearly all
the departments Of the municipal gov
eminent. They are always asking Tor
more, although some OF them are not
stinted in their original supplies as much
as the original Oliver was.
Here IL the STRENGTHENING Depart
ment. The appropriation for that impor-
tant portion of the public business has
been growing with IA remarkably rapid
growth for many years past. Time was,
and not long ago. when Inspector Will
Jams kept the city passahiy clean at n
cost OF half a million dollars II year.
Then Commissioner Coleman took hold
OF the work, and did It more conscien-
tiously than It had ever been done before
or has ever been done since at an out
side cost OF IA million and n quarter.
Now the amount appropriated is almost
doubled, while Commissioned Andrews
declares that the streets are dirty be
cause the appropriation IL not enough.
He wanted more. he says. and the Board
of A"pportionment refused to give 1t him.
Hence the dirt.
The educational department Is short of
salary for the teachers and of room for
the children. They have not enough
money, say the Board. and they ask for
more.
The Park Department wants more: the
Charities and Correction Department
wants more: the Fire Department wants
more. II we are to believe what we
hear, nearly all the departments are
crippled by the lack of liberality in the
Board OF ApportiOnmcnt. Yet the FIX
penses of the city government, even as
far as they are represented in the de-
ceptive tax levy. mount up into the many
millions and startle the taxpayers.
The departments ought all to he al

assigned to them thoroughly. Rut 1t Is

Contradictions in Beauty Books.

There is much contradictory advice in
the many beauty books that are read by
the thousand by all women who want
to be well-favored-and what woman is
above that vanity? Some very highly
recommend hot water for the skin, and
many who have fresh. clear compilations
declare that they W this boon en-
tirely to the use of water that Is, at
least, tepid. while they never think of
using cold water on the face. Now arises
a complexion specialist who says cold
water is the thing after all. and HI
hot is to be scrupulously avoided. He
wishes one to try soap and water for
once IA day, at any rate, drying with a
coarse towel and causing friction, then
rubbing thoroughly with a piece OF
chamois skin.

Painters Pickle.

Painters pickle is used for removing
old paint. 1t is useless to waste time
and money applying good enamel paint
over old paint, for it quickly cracks and
grows shabby. Mix n pound and a
half of stone potash, one pound and a
half to two pounds of soft soap, and
half a pound of washing sod together,
and stir into about a gallon of water.
The pickle should then be boiled till the
potash is melted. Apply this with IA
brush. then let 1t stand for several hours.
