tinued glory and advancement OF the
country.
This provoked fresh discussion, it
being held that past conventions h Il.
made recommendation to the party,
but just before it was time for the
banquet the Patton resolution was
adopted without a dissenting vote
and the committee adjourned.
In the convention proper the COM
mittee on league work reported
gratifying progress and the commit
tee on the next meeting Milwaukee
as the place, the time to be fixed bv
the executive committee. This was
adopted.
Then George B. Green Of New
York nominated General A. E.
McAlpIn tor president of the
national league, amid great cheers.
Illinois and Pennsylvania and Mrs.
j. Ellen Foster seconded the nomi =
nation. Then McAlpin was elected
by acclamation.
For secretary, John F. Byrnes Of
Colorado, William Grant of Illinois
and L. E. Walker of Nebraska were
nominated, but before a ballot was
taken General McAlpin was brought
in and made brief speech of accept
ance. Grant was elected.

SACHETS For BUREA U.

From IAN Sorts OF sachets, - in Demorest's
Magazine.
Bureau drawer sachets should be
made to fit the bottom of the
drawer; one sheet OF cotton batting
split to receive the perfume-is suf-
ficiently thick for these, and the soft
India silks and crepons make the
prettiest possible cover. They are
simply tackled with embroidery silk
or knots of "baby" ribbon, and need
no embroidery. The light silks and
crepons 80 suitable for this use are
both daintier and cheaper than ever
before. Those who watch for the
'sales," which are so frequent in
our large city shops, can pick up
lovely things for twenty nine cents
per yard, and charming ones are to
be had all the time for thirty nine
and forty nine cents.
For wardrobes and closets, sachets
are made quite like those for bureau
drawers; but they are provided with
loops by which to hang them. They
should be broad enough to extend
across the back OF a wardrobe, or
just enough to slip within a skirt
band, the sachet loops hanging
from the same hoops,-and about a
half-yard deep. Small bags are
hung inside hanging waist, or
placed within its folds il 1t be kept
In . box or on q closet shelf. Some
women make thin, fat sachets to ft
the bottoms Of large boxes in which
are kept rich gowns, corsages, laces,
or shawls.

and that the payment Of the amount
stated entailed a deficit from the
operations of the year of $40, ,912 ,O44,
is noted.
The revenue derived from the car.
rying of passengers was S285, ,349, ,558,
and the revenue derived from freight
traffic was $699, ,49O,913 During the
year 1928 railway employees were
killed and 23,422 were injured, as
compared with 2,727 killed and 13,
729 injured in 1893. This marked
decrease in casualties is partly due,
the report says, to the decrease in the
number of men employed, and the
decrease in the volume of business
handled. The increased use of
automatic appliances on railway
equipment also NAV hare rendered
railway employment less dangerous.
The number OF passengers killed was
324, an increase of 25, and the num-
Der injured was 1904, a decrease of
1876. To show the ratio of casualty it
may be started that one employe was
killed out of every 428 in service,
and one injured out of every 33 en-
ployed. In concluding the report the
statistician renews the recommen.
dations made in previous reports in
regard to the desirability of requir-
ing annual reports from express
companies, corporations, companies
and persons owning rolling stock
used in interstate commerce; cor
porations, companies and persons
owning depot property, stock yards
and elevators used by interstate car.

that compete with railways for
traffic.
Reference is also made to the
question of requiring the Taii, aga to
report freight earnings by commodi-
ties. On account of the presentide-
pressed financial condition of rail-
ways it has been decided to let this
matter rest another year, although
there is no question as to the deaira-
bility of such reports.

half of their pay in peaches, but take

trees are worth. They will never
come back, either to replace any

COURT DECISIONS.

The supreme court handed down a
decision in the case of the Laclede
Gas Light Company against M. J.
Murphy, street commissioner of st.
Louis, on application for a peremp-
tory writ of mandamus to compel the
street commissioner to issue permit
to the Laclede Company to make an
excavation on Broadway in which to
lay Its electric light wires. In his
answer to the petition Of the relator
the commissioner questioned the val
idity of the charter of the Laclede
Company and also the right of the
company to engage in the electric
Ec,Uing business uuv Ga. e---L ,,,,
clined to pass upon any question
that did not directly concern the du-
ties of the street commissioner, the
city not being made a party to the
suit. The court upholds the action
of the commissioner in refusing to
issue permit unless the company
fret complied with the city ordinan-
ces, and the writ is denied.

Judge Sherwood filed an opinion
in the supreme court in which law
forbidding uperintendents, officers,
ETC., of corporations from discharg-
ing employees Tor refusal to sever
their connection with labor organi-
cations is held to be unconstitutional
and entirely void as statute of the
state. This law was enacted two
years ago, and provides penalties
ranging from fine of $50 to 81, 900,
ana Blk months mprisonment.
George Julian was foreman or super
intendent of the Hamilton Brown
Shoe Co., of st. Louis, and he dis
charged r. @. Simmonds because the
latter would not sever his connection
with the Lasters' Association of
America. He was fined $50. The
court holds that this law is class leg
islation. A non union man could be
discharged without notice, and the
law would not intervene, while
union man could not be discharged
when his discharge was based upon
his connection with union.

or course there will be no war between the United States and Spain. There is no doubt that a Spanish gunboat, cruising on the eastern coast of Cuba to intercept vessels carrying contraband mater ials to the Cuban insurgents, fired some long-range shots at the "Alli- ance," flying our flag; but Spain will disclaim any intentional insult, sa- lute Uncle Sam's colors, and apollo gize in very choice Castilian. There will probably be sone preliminary higgling as to whether the shooting was done inside the three-mile limit, or as to how far old treaties modified by the decision in the Alabama case; but in the end Spain will ex- press her most poignant regrets, and make the "amende honorable.

Flowers In Northern Russia.

An English traveller in northern Rus sia writes to The Gardener Chronicle that nothing surprised him more than tho universal presence of well grown Towering plants in dwelling rooms Even ill the cells of monasteries and in the studios of city photographers farther north than Arehangel he found such plants as oleanders, erotons, pelargoni- ums and fuehsias in almost every room. The double windows, so necessary to keep out the cold, have draft tight space between them filled with flower ing plants, and it does not seem neces- sary to open them for air during the short hot summer. From September to June the country is buried in snow and shut in by ice. The average temperature for January is only 10 degrees. The July temperature, however, has an ay- craze of 60 degrees F., which is hardly to bo wondered at when it is remem- bered that the sun shines go hours out of the 24.

SEA ANEMoNE AND BARNAcLe.
An Odd Pair of Chums to Be Seen In the
 Aquarium at Castle Garden.

An Odd Pair of Chums to Re Seen Tn the
 Aquarium at Castle Garden.
 The sea anemone is very sensitive. It closes at a hostile or thoughtless touch, not rapidly, for it can't do any thing very rapidly, but as rapidly as it can, curling it's tentaeles inward and covering them over with its outer skin and flattening it down upon the rock. But it Is not disturbed by it's friends. In one of the smaller glass tanks at ths city's aquarium at Castle Garden there are several little sea anemones taken from spiles and stones about the Bat tery. h the same tank, almost within reach of these anemones, are some com mon barnaeles-littleo ones. half an inch or so in diameter. Lacking in beauty as the barnacle may be, it is provided with most wonderful handlike mem- Der, which it throws up from it's shell, with which it sweeps the water for food, the minute animalcul8 upon which it feeds.
 One of these barnaoles is so close to one of the little anemones that when he filings his net it almost or quite touches the tips of the anemone's tentacles, which spread liko the most delicate and feathery branches of the tiniest littlo tree. But tho anemone doesn t close up. Not bit Here down deep in the tank it's branches wave in the gently agitat- ed water, as, delicate as they are, they might do in the gentlest zephyrs on the land, and they wave and wave as the barnacle throws it's net. Perhaps the sea anemone has it's own benefit ill mind through all this for it is quite probable that the agitation of the water brings to it food that it might not otherwise receive; but, however that may be, the fact remains that the little anemons that would oloso at the slightest touch of all enemy is quite undisturbed by any thing that its friend and neighbor ths barnaole might do.-New York Sun.

4 Whistler Story.

One of the best of the Rossetti stories concerns Mir. Whistler. Once Rossetti asked Whistler how he liked sketch he had made for picture. ''It has good points, was the answer. "Go ahead with it. ," A few weeks later he was asked about the picture Doing ia mously," said Ressetti. sI'ye ordered a stunning frame for it, " Some time later Mir. Whistler saw tho canvas, framed, but still virgin of paintbrush or paint. "You'ye done nothing to it, :" said MT. Whistler. "No, :" replied Ros- setti, ''but I've written sonnet on the subject. if you would care to hear it 1" When the recitation was over, Mr. Whistler said, "Rosetti, take out the canvas and put the sonnet in the frame |" --Pall Mall Budget

l have recently obtained samples of the chief baking powders in the market, and have subjected them to careful chemical examination to de- termine their purity, wholesomeness and leavening power. As the result of my tests find the Royal Baking Powder superior to the others in every respect. It is entirely free from all adniteration and unwholesome impnrity, and in baking 1t gives off a greater volume of leavening gas than any other powder. 1t is, therefore, not only the purest, but also the strongest powder with which | am acquainted.

SOUTHERN 4GRIeULTURE.

The great changes since the war in relations of the cotton staple to general commerce, have of late been the subject of profound considera- tion in the South. There has been numerous meetings of prominent planters within the past year and one very recently. Everywhere the fact seems to be recognized that the crop must be reduced, and a greater acreage put in articles of home con sumption.
 Independent of the increase of cotton grown in other lands, there is a feeling that the American crop has become the toy of spectators skilled in the devices of raising or depressing prices, just as their in terest may change. The farmer never gets the benefit of any ad- vance. Large crops always favor these manipulators, and the want of co operation on the part of the producers affords the chance. There is now the prospect of a better un- derstanding among planters. The plan looks to experiments as to the adaptability of Southern soil to di- versified products, and the encour- agement of factories to work up what the fields and mines may pro- duce. The resources of the South are as yet largely unknown and their development, occasioned by CO operation, will prove one of the most
 Interesting marvels of our times.
