A POLICE COURT o-P)oTUNITY.

There was a pretty, blue-eyed girl In
the Sorkville Police Court yesterday
who, though but seventeen years of age,
had come to more wretchedness OF eN-
perlence than has fallen TO a lifetime
OF the majority OF her sex. She had
found out mans perfidy. And through
the persuasions OF the same man who
brought her to her first great sin she
had been led to the commission OF the
crime OF theft. She had stolen a gold
locket from the house where she was
temporarily employed. The daughter OF
the mistress OF the house, young
woman but little older than the accused,
appeared in court as the complainant in
the case.
The girl prisoner told her whole story
to the court. She tod II tearfully, and
everybody IN the room felt that she told
1t truthfully. The Justices voice fall
tered as he spoke to her. The lawyer
assigned to defend the prisoner turned
| impulsively TO the girls accuser asking
her If she would not withdraw the COM
plant. To his request the fair young
prisoner added her pleadings. DO,
please do" she cried. II will work for
you till / have paid double the price OF
the lockeL Please have mercy" But
the compliments face and voice were
hard. NO" she said. II will not with
draw the charge The girl is guilty on
her own confession. and she should be
punished. 1 would not permit her &c
enter my home. No. she must suffer the
consequences OF her actions"
Then the Justice had TO do the one
thing that the law allowed. He helc
the prisoner for trial II am sorry fol
you. my little girl" he said. and hi
voice shook again. The complainant
had apparently been the only unmoveC
person In the courtroom. Was 1
woman's inhumanity to woman? Wa
It an opportunity lost7 Was Il the fina
doom OF young life that kindness
might yet have sayed2

There Is n well-grounded belief that
Boss Plat is using Levi T. Morton's

the candidacy OF his young man. Fas-

Mr.. Fassett wants vindlcation He Is
a candidate and working like beaver

Mr.. Plat. who is Informed of every
thing that Is going on in the party up
the State, cannot fail to be aware of
his protege's doings. Fassett is using
the party machinery for all IL is worth
to boom his interests, and he could not
do that without Platts consent. There
fore the belief that Morton Is merely
being utilized as II respectable figure

usefulness Is ended.
MIR Morton may be the candidate OF
the Republicans for Governor, but only

ton and his friends may not he aware
that the ex-Vice- president is being toyed
with. but that seems to be the case.
The facts will not permit of any other
view.
The Fassett plan Is to encourage can
didates who are ambitious to be Lieu
tenant-Governor to enter the field all
over the State, and through them test
the pulse of the people. The voters are
not asked the honest question. If they

And thinks that every young man should adore

And before a mirror on she pouts and poses'
And she sweeps about the place with a naughty

But nearly all this little maiden knows Is;
How to seem sweet, how to be neat
How to do all fancy dances:
How to beguiIe. Just how to smile.

And forever she will hate you II you doubt It,
Through every street in town she will wander up

Imagining all eyes upon her linser;
And II II young man chances to respond to her

Pretty TnbIe Mnppcrs.

It Is good form TO break Off morsels
Of bread. toast, biscuits and cake; 1t is
vulgar to bite into a slice. 1t Is good
form to train the left hand to use the
fork: a gentleman does not lay down
his knife and take the fork in his right
hand when the course consists of meat
and a salad. 1t is good form to eat
slowly and quietly: only vulgar people
are noisy. 1t Is good form to sit erect. to
keep the arms off the table. to look
pleasant, and to keep room in the mouth
for laugh. People who eat like cattle
should be induced to take meals in
sheds or vacant lots. Babies and men
and women. In their second childhood,
can be excused for soldering at table.

Where Cain Got Mrs. Cain.

To the Editor:

preston that Scripture is unreliable as a history
because he cannot comprehend how Cain found

THE TRAMP QUESTION.

Undeterred by the failure OF his first
attempt to collect an army of tramps
in Washington, Gen. Coxey announces
his intention OF trying again, and ex-
poets to muster 10000 men as an in
dustrial army" TO be on parade at the
National capital by the opening Of the
Winter session OF Congress.
There Is unfortunately only too much
reason to fear that Coxeyism mag be
more successful In Its second venture
than II was in Its first There has
been a great increase in the number of
unemployed, the long continuance OF
hard times has depressed and disheart-
ened those who have been thrown out OF
work. Idleness and the pressure OF
poverty have caused a loss of self-re-
spect. and the increase of professional
trampism is one of the melancholy
features OF the times.
The most conspicuous illustration of
the situation is furnished in the State
of New Jersey. which derives many adj
vantages from Its position between the
two great manufacturing centres OF
New York and Pennsylvania, and which
now suffers the natural drawbacks OF
its central position. 1t has become the
trunk line OF tramp passenger travel
to such an extent that the railroad
companies find themselves seriously en-
barrassed In operating their properties,
and the evil Is on the Increase.
The tramp question is going to be a
serious one next Winter. There Is only
one remedy for the evil, and that is a
restoration OF the normal business con-
ditions OF the country. In other words,
this trouble. like many others, demands
the passage of a satisfactory and final
Tariff bill.

seasbore Glassware.

Managers Of the popular seashore no.
tells buy their goblets and glasses in
parcels of twenty gross each. The sea-
son is ninety days at the outside, and
the breakage varies from six to twenty
glasses a day. The destruction of water
goblets entails the greatest loss; the
guests break some, and those that get
through the hands Of the walters in
safety have the perils of the dlshpan
TO brave. In many Of the best kept
country hotels the servants are not
charged for breakage, owing to the diff
ficulty OF getting capable help. July 3
Is a great day for the crockery and
glasswear business. Every Summer re-
sort has a big dinner party, and the

Dainties with Cold Meat.

It is too bad to set cold meat before a
family and nothing else. 1t Is feast
or a famine in most houses. The chefs
are wiser. They pride themselves in
dressing up scraps and piecing out a
meal with inexpensive dainties. For ex-
ample: Delicate slices Of cold beef or
tongue sent to table garnished with
baked tomatoes, stewei bee.s and fried
apples. or the cold trim slices. trimmed
with Sliced tomatoes, hari-boiled eggs
and lemon, and served with stuffed egg
plant and baked green pears. Make a
special course of stewed caulifower or
cucumber, with dry toast and cream
gravy; fellow an Ice cold salad with
banana ree!s fl; ed with "aN"'a Tee
cream, and II there are SIX sponge cakes
and pint OF black coffee everybody
will be full uf contentment.

About the BABY,

Do not blow the food to cool 1t. The
breath is often impure, and will make
the food injurious to the child.
Never roll the towel up in hard knots
or twist around pin to poke at the
babys ears or nostrils with the idea of
cleaning them.
Never try TO wash further than you
an see. and always use the softest of
cloths.
In bathing a child never let the water
run into its ears by putting its head too
low in the tub.
Never on any account tickle a child.
In general. keep 1t as sweet. clean and
placid as possible.

Rooms with Many Doors.

The room with many doors is often
sore vexation to the woman who Is
striving to evolve pleasing interior.
What can you do with such a room?
asks some one in despair. In the first
place, see how many of the doors can
be conveniently dispensed with in your
going and coming. If any, make the
door an ornamental panel, on which
pictures or bracket with a good piece
Of bric-a-brac. or a set of shelves may
be hung. If there Is sufficient height
between the top of the door and the
ceiling, put shelf for snowy ornaments
that have good color over the door, or
long, narrow mirror or fiowery pic
ture. Some of the studies that come
with art magazines are used to great
advantage in this place. A different
effect may be had by placing a tall
bookcase or buffet or a sofa against the
door. and often this is improved by first
covering the door with some harmonious
hanging used in folds. or so plain and
straight that 1t looks only like panel.

DOnt's.

Do not allude 10 your poverty. Ono
should be as reticent In regard to It as
to his riches.
Do not force into your conversation
the names OF the noted personages you
may have CHANGED to meet.
Do not dress appropriately or con-
spicuously. II Is better to be under
dressed than overdrossed. Women OF
refinement give attention to the shoes
first. the gloves next, while the dress
and bonnet are later considerations.
Do not be one minute late at lunch
or dinner.
Do not forget that well-bred people
are always thoughtful and polite.
