The Ilaiser's ravorite Dish.

The German kaiser and kaiserin usually breakfast and dine with 20 to GO friends. They call that a home" luncheon or dinner. The cuisine is half English and half German, and meats are always served in great variety. as the kaiser is a great meat eater. Ger man champagne is furnished with soup, Moselle and Rhine wine follow and then Burgundy and Heidsick Royal with the dessert
 The latter is special brand manu- factured expressly for his majesty, who has always from 1000 to 10, GOO quarts of it in his cellars. The kaiser s favoritc dish is Vienna roast beef, or pot roast. Whenever he visits at a house, his court marshal asks the host to place this dish on the menu. The kaiser's menu is always ill German script except when foreigners are in vit"d who do not speak the language The kaiser keeps no pastry cook. All pastries for the schlOss are furnished by q caterer ill Unter den Linden
 The Empress Frederick's cuisine has never excited the enthusiasm of gour- mcts. It k neither English nor French nor German. Her majesty is inordinate- ly fond of cream, which is added to most dishes on her table. Purees and pastries are much likod-New York Wurld

PsnnsrlranIa RaiIroad Time.

There was time when folks used to set their watches by the town clock. Nowadays the railway timepiece seems ing and so many have to catch trains that men try to keep railroad time.
 Few think, however, how difficult it is to keep that same railroad time straight. A bad watch or false time, even to the extent of a minute or two, might easily involve the destruction of a train and many lives. Conductors and engineers not only must have good time keeping watches, but they must have a very accurate standard of time to go by All clocks vary, but most clocks vary too much for railroad ac- curacy.
 All over the great Pennsylvania sys- tenn the clocks are regulated every 24 hours by telegraph from Altoona, where they get the standard tiE!c in seconds from Washington. The conductors and engineers running out of Philadelphia get their time from the clock in the TO- tunda at the Broad street station, the big one ill the center just outside the waiting room, which occupies the same position ill the new station that it did ill the ola. This clock, which cost over $4O0, is considered a wonder and in the old station seldom varied more than two seconds in the 24 hours. It has not been doing quite so we'll since taken down and put up again, but is improv- ing and is SO much better than any oth- CT clock known that nobody thinks of changing it, and in all probability in a little while, when it gets accustomed to its position and surroundings, it will come as near perfect accuracy as it~ever has ill its history. y.-Philadelphia Times

 It may be worked in either satin or buttonhole stitch with white wash silk or linen floss. Tho buttonhole stitch is preferable. as it forms firmer edge, tho threads of the satin stitch being liable to rall apart. The veining may be done in solid satin stitch, but the stem or outline stitch is fully as effective and much easier to work.
 In marking out piece of work for which Il square or oblOng border is de- sired it is well to mark the corners first, then divide tho space between, placing n leaf exactly i'll the middle, between the corners. and then calculate the num- Der of leaves required for the spaces, cutting off or lcngthening point of the leaf as required to fill the space.

vice. one that provides a speedy and effectual method of tying, hanging and untying storage bags of paper or cloth
 When the bag is filled, take the twine, cord, tape or whatever material is chosen for a tie string, fold it in the middle and tie the two ends together in a solid knot with two little ends, pass the doubled cord around the neck of the bag and slip the whole end through the knotted end. Draw the loop through and pull it up as tightly as possible. The bag will then be tightly closed. and there will be n long loop 6 the cord by which it may be suspended, the weight of the contents constantly serving to tighten the closure.
 To instantly open the bag, with no bother of untying strings or cutting or picking out knots. drop the suspension loop, take hold of the two little ends, give them a downward pull, and the bag is opened.

Miss olga NcthcrsoIc. the cx- English BcrlIharGt. has decided to invite n com parisun with ElcunOru Dusc, Clara Morris, Sara lIcrnhardt and few other very fair actresses who have delighted the people of this city within two or three years. She Is playing the part of the codliVer oil bCr- oinc, or ''villainCss, as you prefer it, at pnlmers thcatCr in Dumas tuhcrcular drama, Camille" This young lady has been particularly unfortunate with her American managers. First of all, it was stated that Augustin Daly had engaged hcI for n starring tour pf this country at a weekly bagntellc of $500. Then. accord ing to the Riulto goSsips, the music start Cd in real earnest. It Is rumorcd that Miss Ada Rchan, whose starring tour was just about tO begin, called upon Mir. Daly and had long talk with him, using some very positive us well as comparative and super lativc language The fair Ada-ngain ac. cOrding te the gossips-informcd tho usually august Augustin that if he had any waste ability to cxpcnd in the man. aGemCnt of theatrical female stars he would better usc it in her behalf. For once Augustin was fcazcd. He hnd Miss NCthersolc on his hands and Miss Rchan, fiGurativcly, in his hair.
 In his despair he turned the English actress uvCr to the managerial tender mcr cics of Marcus Mayer. who was then an
 nounccd as being in charge. Since then Mir. X. NJ. Palmer's name has figured tC some extent in connection with Miss Ncthcrsolc's management until now the unfortunate young lady literally doesn't | know where she is at" Nor, for that matter, does anybody else. The ghost at tachcd to her company is addicted to az gravatingly regular habits, and his per authorizations arc invariably made on time,
 hut whence his spcctership comes or | whithCr he goes no one has yet been nl,le | to learn. 4 rumor has been current that | Miss Ncthersolc would shortly cndCavOT, | with the aid of the courts, to get her exact managerial latitude and longitude, hut hear that that is exceeding glyjmprobable. | Altogether the American stellar path of
 the young English BCrnhardt has been | strcwn with n varied assortment of able bodied thorns. OCTAVUs COHEN. | New York

 A very useful and elegant little coat of short length for the same little miss is made of tweed in becoming mixture of fawn and gray Dlue. The shape is a close fitting, double breasted one, and the coat is outlined everywhere by a band of gray blue cloth edged on either side by line of heavy tubular braid of a brown shade. The buttons are of brown braid embroidered with threads of gray blue. This coat is serviceable with any costume, plain or mixed colors.

In the work which would qualify then for higher honors
 When Henry Miller became practically n star several years ago. these selfsamC critics snecrcd at him. When William. Morris undertook to go out on his OWL hook, he was referred to with derision, while Leonard Boyno's pretcnsions wer, incontinently ridiculed. And yet Morris was and Miller is the leading actor of Charles Frohman's Empire thcater stock company, incomparably the strongest or ganization of it's kind in this country and Leonard Boyne Is tho highest salaried leading man in America or England, where ho also starred, playing the title role in "Claudian' moro than 100 consec, utive times. The barking, snapping "crit ics'' to whom have referred are largely responsible for the fact that the leadinn man of each of tho four most important companies in America devoted to serious work is an Englishman.
 There is a very general impression that most managers are literally overwhelmed with the manuscripts of supposctl-to he great plays. This is n very huge mistake, except perhaps in one or two cases. The number of new plays which even claim tc be of the higher grade, suitable for stock purposes, turned out in this country in q
 
 an infinitcsimal percentage of theso is produced. The reasons for 1t are not hard to find. In the first place, very few of oul people write good plays. This is mainly attributable to the arrant commercial cow nriicc of most American managers. The ordinary individual, devoid of influence and not personally acquainted with the magnate, will send his play on by exprcss -prepaid-carcfully done up, and aftci waiting n considerable time and writing to request the return of his manuscript he will in nine cases out of ten get 1t back with the seals unbruken and the charges marked collect" Most English managers will read any play submitted, at least un- til n point Is reached wherc it is decided that the work Is wGrthless. In this way they frequently get hold of valuable pieces of theatrical property upon very favorable terms. As result of this policy, several names have been added to tho list of pros porous English playwrights within the last couple of years, but l will defy any one to mention n single pcrson who has stepped into tho ranks of the recognized American writers of plays of the higher grade within the same period.
 No; almost every fellow with little imagination, some literary ability and n liking for the thcatcr has been mt some timo or other possessed of the idea that hc could write n real good play.
