ing Dem0crtic speech at the school
house last Tuesday evening on his re-
turn from Leaksyillc court to an en-
thusiastic and highly appreciatiye
audience. He detailed at length and
in a most forcible manner what the
Democratic party has done for the
people and showed up so many pop
ullst tallacicS that if there was Il
pOpnllte man in the house he was
bound to see the error of his way and
turn back. Mr.. Neville also addressed
an audience of $50 peoplcat Lcaksyillc

A LEaIsLATIvE MUDDLE.

Legislative matters at Albany seem to
be In an incomprehensible muddle II Is
impossible to understand the policy OF
the majority. unless II be simply to
make hay while the sun shines to grab all
they can get while they have n chance; to
make desperate efforts to break into the
spoils from which they have been lcng
excluded: to hold n lobby revival at the
State capital and to give the boys a
chance"
At one time we are told that the
Bipartisan Police bill is going through
both Houses In exactly the shape the
political bosses desire. At another. In
formation comes that It is amended SO
as to transfer all the power from the
Commissioners to the Superintendent
That is we'll known to be what the politl-
cal bose do not desire. Then again. II
is reported that another amendment has
been tackled on, empowering the Bi-Parti-
san Police Board to remove the Superin-
tendent at Its will, and this Is doubtless
what the political bosses would like very
well.
The bill giving the next Mayor OF New
York the power to remove all heads OF
departments Is similarly befogged. One
day II Is defeated by the Platt- Croker
combine" and the next day 1t comes to
life again. and Is to be put through. The
| Lexow Committee business Is also mex
tricably mixed. Now 1t Is crippled and
saddled with country lawyer, chosen
by Boss Plat, az counsel, and now II Is
made a whole years job to be run by
capable lawyers and armed with the
power to make long Investigations and a
long bill against the State.
II there is really a decker between the
party leaders to divide up the city spolls

Tammany next Fall, 1t will appear II

amendments that defeat the objects Of

ably certain that no laws will be enacted
in the interests OF the public.
The session OF 1894 will be mainly dis
tinguished for restoring the lobby "argu
ments" to Albany, instead OF keeping
them In New York and sending only tn,
orders OF the bosses to the capital.

THE ARMoR-PLATE SCANDAL.

The naval authorities and some Con-
gressmen seem to be suddenly impressed
by the improperly OF having anything
to do with 'Informers," or, as they put
II. OF paying rascals for disclosing their
own dishonesty" in the matter OF the
armor-plate charges.
This does not seem to be exactly the
correct view of the case. The informers
have not been the rascals. The guilty
parties must be those who alone could
have benefited by the fraud. the members
of the highly protected Carnegie Com
pany.
Nobody admlres an informer. But In
this case the alleged frauds are OF such
| an Infamous character, involving as they
do the risk OF impairlng the honor and
glory of the nation. as well as sacriilc

could be ettled by the payment OF 4

What Thrend-Biting Does.

Women who do much sewing FIRE.
quently suffer a great deal from soreness
Of the mouth, and are at a loss to ascer-
tain the cause of the trouble. Half the
time 1t Is simply the result Of biting OF
the thread instead Of using a pair Of
shears for cutting. In the case Of silk
thread, the danger is quite marked, be.
cause 1t Is usual to put the thread in
acetate Of lead. partly to harden it and
also, perhaps. to increase its weight
somewhat If this practice is followed
regularly, and very much silk thread 10
used, the result may be quite serious
and lead to blood poisoning.

The Demand for Lace.

Lace counters are besieged from early

fact. laces are used on day and evening
dresses and on garments Of all kinds.
Besides the guipure laces there are ,mi-
tations Of guipure, which will be used
on Summer washable dresses. Guipure
de venise is a pretty lace for shoulder
frills and jabots. This is used in
combination with velvet or demi-
season light cloth dresses. The effect
is charming, as in case Of an ecru COM
bination with mignonette green velvet
and this lace. Other laces of the season
are the point venise. point Milan, point

cheaper varieties which are still very

qualities. They are powerfully anti

diseases. We generally use them as
