A POLICE COURT OPPORTUNITY.

There was a pretty, blue-eyed girl In
the Yorkville Police Court yesterday
who, though but seventeen years OF age,
had come to more wretchedncss OF eX-
perience than has fallen to a lifetime
OF the majority of her sex, She had
found out a mans perfdy. And through
the persuasions of the same man who
brought her to her first great sin she
had been led to the commission of tho
crime of theft. She had stolen gold
locket from the house where she Was
temporarily employed. The daughter OF
the mistress of the house a young
woman but little older than TIE accused,
appeared in court as the complainant it,
the case.
The girl prisoner told her whole story
to the court, She told II tcarTullN. and
everybody in the room felt that she told
IT truthfully. The justices voice ral.
tered as he spoke to her The lawyer
assigned to defend the prisoner turned
, impulsively to the girls aCcuser, asking
her II she would not withdraw the COM
plant. To his rcques, the fair Young
prisoner added her plcad,ngs DO
, please dol" she cried. II will work for
! you till have paid double the price of
the locket Please have mercy" But
the complainanrs face and voice were
hard. mo" she said. IL will not with
draw the charge. The girl IL guilty on
/ her own confession, and she should be
/ punished. I would not permit her to
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 hold
the prisoner for trial. Il am sorry Tor
you, my little girl" he said, and hs
voice shook again. The complainant
had apparently been the only unmoved
person In the courtroom. Was II
woman's inhumanity to woman? Was
it an opportunity lost? Was II the hna
doom of young life that kindness
might yet have saved?

THE TRAMP QUESTION.

Cndeterred by the failure OF his FIRST
attempt 20 collect an army OF tramps
in Washington, Gen. CoHcy announces
his intention of trying again, and eN-
poets to muster 10000 men as an ''ir-
dustrial army" TO be on parade at the
National capita; by the opening of the
Winter session of Congress.
There Is unfortunately only too much
reason to fear that Coxeyigm may 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-rc-
spect, and the increase of professional
tramplsm 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 ad-
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 thc railroad
companies find themselves seriously ON,
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
restoratio 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.

Rooms with Many Doors.

The room with many doors is often a
sore vexation to the woman who Is
striving to evolve a pleasing interior.
What can you do with such 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. II any, make the
door an ornamental panel, on which
pictures or q 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 a shelf for snowy ornaments
that have good color over the door, or
a 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 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 a panel.

Pretty Table Manners.

1t Is good form to break of 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 mea
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 a 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.

Dainties with Cold Meat.

1t is too bad to set cold meat before a

VEGETABLE Courses.

A diner may be made very attractive
by serving some delicately prepared
vegetable as a separate course. Hot or
cold asparagus, artichokes and caull-
flower are excellent; II hot have a
mayonnaise or French dressing; If cold
have it ice-cold and serve with hot
cream gravy or a mayonnaise. The cold
vegetables seasoned twice, with French
dressing first, and then a mayonnaise
made of lime Juice, are worth trying.
II the dinner Is slender, have nice rolls
and fresh butter or delicate buttered
toast. Baked stuffed tomatoes, cream
of spinach, tomato omelet, and stuffed
green peppers make inexpensive and
satisfactory entrees. 1t takes little
more time and increases the dish wash
ing, but saves the meat and makes a
simple meal feast-like.

To the Editor:

o the Editor:
The morning broke
Like every other morning fair:
The gray streaks tinged the sky above
While over the pillows from her pier
Sped a ship with human freight.
She sailed.
But ere long there came in sight.
Cutting the water fore her PROV,
While upon her the sun shone bright;
She sailed to meet her foe.
They met.
Then belched forth with Humorous clap,
Which SHOOK the mighty deep.
The smoke that Cleared from the spot
Revealed a dreadful scene.
The water poured
While slowly down the doomed ship vent
Cries OF agony the still air rent
The forms leaping into air.
Striking the water to rise no more.
She sank
1000 souls shared her fate;
The billow-crested water foamed.
While O. erhead the screeching birds did soar
She sank 20 rise no more.

the breakage varies from six to twenty

goblets entails the greatest loss: the
guests break some, and those that get
