A LEGISLATIVE ABUSE.

The E~ngrossing Department in the
State Legislature is one OF those CON
trivances invented by the Albany lobby,
and designed to make cheating In lcgis-
lation easy.
When n bill has passed both houses and
Is on Its way to the Governor, 1t Is con-
signed to the care OF the Engrossing De
partment. There 1t has been easy to get
a provision inserted or omitted, or ever
occasionally to lose Il bin. In the
hurry and hustle OF the close of a SEES
sion this has been especially the case,
and many a big lobby fee has been
earned. n many a liberal amount has
been divided up among the Black Horse
cavalry. after all efforts to defeat a
Measure while on It's passage have failed.
There are so many persons In the En-
crossing Department, and the policy OF
mixing matters up and losing track OF a
bill has been so well carried out, that
when a Job OF the kind has been dis
covered It has been impossible to trace
md fix the responsibility.
The Engrossing Department fraud
ought to be discontinued this session.
and the bills ought to be sent to the
Executive Chamber direct. by the Clerk
of the Senate or Assembly. as soon as a
bill has been passed. 1t would be well,
when re-engrossing Is necessary. to have
It done under the supervision of the

like that in which the meat is being
cooked n pour in the batter. Put the

meat on the rack, return to the oven
and cool forty-five minutes. II you have
only one pan. take up the meat, pour off

kitchen. let the pudding bake in the
oven for half an hour. and Their place IL
under the meat to catch the dripping.
For he Yorkshire pudding, one pint Of
milk. two-thirds OF a cupful Of flour,
three eggs and one scant teaspoonful of
salt will be needed. Beat the eggs very
light. Add salt and milk and then pour
about hall a cupful of the mixture upon

the remainder. This makes a rather
small pud~ding-about enough for six per-
sons. Serve 1t hot.

The Art of Patching.

How many patch clothes. particularly
chi!dren's clothes, with little regard to
the stripe and check, and sometimes tn
the shade Of the garment patched. Then
some seem to think the larger the patch
the better. or course the thinness of thu
cloth near the hole will have somethin9
to do with the size Of the patch, but
when a three-cornered tear is mended
take a piece exactly matching the check
or stripe of the garment, and Just largo
enough to leave a space equal to the fell
taken on the other side between the hem
and the run; then on the right side make
a cut In each corner equal to the depth
OF the fell, and a much squarer, neater
patch Is made. II a woollen garment, IL
should be dampened and the fell thor
oughly pressed with a moderately hot
Iron. A patch should never be put on
the right side of an outer garment. II
the rent or wear Is near a seam Insert n
side Of the patch into this, and some
times two seams are so heal that the
patch can scarcely be noticed. Generally
people fasten the patch on the grong
side by running a thread along nexr the
edge. A better way is to catstitch the
patch on to the garment.

aiiGe that In nine cases out of ten, the manly
woman is such Of necessity-not OF choice. It
is, believe me. cruel necessity which leads her
to choose the shortest and least desirable mode OF
earning a bare living. Our gentleman can
hardly complain that the remuneration accorded
to a woman is over generous. as It is always
lower than that received by a man in the same

AND The GIRL CAME BACK,
Just in Time to See the l. Guard
Examining Her SatcheI.

An inquisitive guard on a north-bound
Ninth avenue a. train had an embar-
RAISING experience this morning. A mod
est-looking young woman carrying a
hand satchel. boarded his car at Cham
bers street. She carried a copy of THE
world,'' and hardly raised her eyes
from 1t until the inquisitive guard, whose
car was the first OF the train, slid the
door back with a bang and announced:
''ty-f1rst street,"
Then. with a startled look, she hur-
riedly folded her paper and alighted on
the platform.
When the guard had slammed the
gate and informed the few passengers
In the car that "-ty-third" was next"
his attention was called to the hand
satchel. which the modest young woman
had forgotten in her haste.
He picked up the satchel, opened 1t.
and was examining its contents-which
trimmings to be the modest young wo-
mans night accoutrements.
Just then the car door was hastily
pushed open and the modest young wo-
man, her face very red from exertion
or shame. reached in and snatched the
satchel from the guards hands, at the
same time giving him a look that. u
him.
The passengers were as much mystified
as the guard at her sudden appearance,
until one OF them questioned her about
1t. He was told she had missed her
satchei just in time to enable, her TO
was pulling out. She had rushed through
the other cars to recover her property,
and In that way caught the inquisitive
guard examining her lingerie.

A ISSUE.

1t is very we'll known that the action
of the Administrator IN he Hawaiian
question does not meet the approval of
the American people. The original at
tempt TO steal the islands was easily
recognized as one OF those money-mak-
ing Jobs anticipated when Mr.. Blaine was
made Secretary OF State. II does not
speak well for the National sense of
honor that no great shock was felt whcn
1t became known that officials OF the
United Stat IS had their fingers In the
s~ugar-bounty pie. But the annexation
proposition did arouse public opposition
sufficiently decided to compel a halt In
the plot to drive the treaty through be-
fore President Harrison's retirement.
When Mr.. Cleveland withdrew the an
nexation treaty from the Senate and an
nounced that 1t would not be returned
he did what the people desired n ap-
proved. But when he undertook on high
moral grounds to restore the Hawaiian
Queen to her throne by a peaceful ar
rangement, he offended popular senti-
ment did what n large majority of
the American people believed was UNI
called for and injudicious.
On a fair presentation OF the case II
Is a set-on between the two administra-
tons. The action OF the Harrison people
was dishonest and d%isgraceful. The
course OF Mr.. Cleveland's Administration
mas been i~ll-judged. although prompted by
honorable theoretical considerations. But
there Is nothing on which to hang a Ma
tional Issue. or, indeed. any issue at all.
The late Administrator tried to steal
the islands and failed.
The present Administration tried to re-
store the monarchy by peaceful means
and failed. The status Is precisely as 1t
was when Cleveland became President.
The matter ought now to drop. 1t is
only kept alive as a political agitation
OF a very small calibre, and its serious
consideration by Congress is ridiculous.
1t only show how hard driven the op-
position is to find some point Of attack
In the Administrations policy.
Drop Hawaii, gentlemen. and attend
to the business OF rebuilding our
finances. revising the tariff laws SO as
to protect labor as well as capital, re-
ducing taxation, removing election
abuses and restoring the general pros
perity.
