Gladstone's Views on French Gowns.

The second day of the congress of rep
nsentative women at Chicago there were
meetings in full blast in five halls of the
great Memorial Art palace on the lake
'front.' But not one of these, nor all OF
them combined, drew one-sixth of the
audience which focked to Hall Ill to
hear talk upon dress reform. 1t was
packed to the doors and way beyond.
On this occasion all the leaders of ad-
vanced dress reform were present and
had something to say. Henrietta Russell

which seemed to fall entirely from the
shoulders, but which was becoming to
the wearer, although. as woman who
stood just behind the reporters table re-
marked, it did make her look as though
She had hung bedspread upon her back
and tablespread upon her front. Mrs.
Russell had talked with Mr.. Gladstone
about dress.
Mr.. Gladstone told Mrs. Russell that
ne had for years approved of long lines
ana Grecian draperies, but had only
".ely ventured to say so.
The love for French gowns" said he,

ssloulders, is 80 deeply implanted in the

The Heroes In the Stokehold.

One of the most sorrowful circum-
stances connected with the loss of the
Victoria is the fact that five out of six
engineer officers lost their lives. The
reason is not far to seek. The engineers
were at the post of duty, and the post of
duty was in this case the post of danger
The chief engineer and four of his staff
were in the engine room endeavoring to
shut off the steam and to open the escape
valves. They died, but they will not be
forgotten.
Those who know what watch in the
dark, fiery we'll of the stokehold. 40 feet
below the bridge, really means can alone
appreciate the qualities which enable
men to remain steadfast at their post in
such surroundings in the hour of danger.
It requires stout heart to stay at the
bottom of an iron well, with a dozen
high pressure boilers before one and a
square patch of sky seen through q
hatchway 40 feet above, when the order
on deck is, "Close all the water tight
DOORS" and "Call away all the boats.

Nearly -Four Months In Il Doidrum.

Nearly EvuT NkOhIN5 HI u iIOitiFUH.
Held for nearly four months in an
equatorial doldrum or dead sea calm
until her provisions were exhausted and
her crew on the verge of starvation was
the terrible experience of the American
ship Edward O'Brien, which had long
ago been given up for lost The ship is
owned partly in this city, and the news
of her safety has just reached the OWL
ers.
The ship left Victoria, B. g., early in
December last for London with large
cargo of wheat, and nothing was heard
of her until June 90, when she was sight
ed by the steamer Galileo in latitude
1881, longitude 25 16, flying signals tell
ing that she was short of food. She was
supplied by the steamer, and Captain
Whitton brought to New York news of
the safety to the underwriters, who
were demanding heavy premiums for
reinsuring the vessel and cargo.
1t was learned that the ship had made
a fine run down the Pacific coast and
around the Horn. bl.. when near the
equator she had been caught in one OF
the dreaded calms that prevail in that
latitude. For three months she re-
mained within distance of half a mile
from where she first struck the calm
and during that time there was not wine
enough to fill even the lightest of hel
sails Finally small current, proba
bly, made by a storm many miles away
appeared and served to send her slowly
out of the locality, which threatened a
one time to become place of death fol
all on board On this current the shil
drifted for almost another month. Thei
welcome wind carried her back int

Sweet Pickled Watermelon Rinds.

Peel the rinds with a sharp knife that
will take off the green skin evenly.
Trim off also every trace of the pink
flesh of the fruit, because it is too juicy
to make firm, crisp pickle. Then cut
the strips of rind into small pieces to 3
inches long, and placing them in large
earthen dish sprinkle them lightly and
evenly with salt. Cover the dish and
let it stand overnight. In the morning
drain off the water that will have form
ed, rinse the rinds in cold water and
cook them in steamer until broom
splint will readily pierce them. Cook
ing the rinds by steam is an easy meth
cd, as they are less liable to burn than
when they are cooked in spiced vinegar.
When the rinds are tender, take them
out carefully with a skinner and put
them into stone jar.
Take good cider vinegar for the basis
of the pickle. Allow a pound of sugar
to a pint of vinegar and add also half
an ounce of stick cinnamon broken into
inch pieces and half teaspoonful each
of whole cloves and blades of mace. The
whole amount of vinegar, sugar and
spices used must of course depend on
the quantity of rinds to be picked, but
a quart of vinegar is usually sufficient
for the rinds of medium sized melon
Boil the vinegar, sugar and spices to-
gether vigorously half an hour, skim
ming off the froth, and pour the pickle
boiling hot over the rinds. Press the
rinds down under the pickle by means
of an earthen plate or saucer, fasten the
cover on and tie cloth oyer the whole.
These pickles will be ready for use in
two weeks.-Harper's Bazaar.

women to particularly avoid putting
cranks in the foreground of this work"
This letter was listened to in complete
silence and had evidently put some Of
the equal suffragists who were present

them arose and asked what crank was.

she. 81 am called crank"
