4 DE1TOCR1TIC CLAIM,

The failure of the income tax ant
 several other Democratic connections have left those who are still true tc Democracy rather bare of arguments tc
 support their position with. Therefore
 1t Is not surprising to find them claim ing credit for Democracy because it
 has reduced the price of firecrackers. The Mckinley tariff on f1recrackers was eight cents per pound Under the | new tariff there is an ad valorem duty of fifty per cent. Under the old tariff a box paid fifty-six cents duty which will now have to pay only twelve cents to come into this country.
 How much this will reduce the price of firecrackers made in New Jersey and labeled with tea-chest characters remains to be seen. Doubtless there will be some reduction. But that this reduction will add greatly to the strength of the Democratic party is doubtful It may make some of the small boys who may hear about it re- solve to be Democrats when they are twenty-one, but the indications now are that there will be no Democratic party by that time. Even this dubious "Demochatic gain" will be in measure offset by the small boys, who, on the day after the Fourth, will feel inclined to "cuss" the Democratic party for making 1t easier for them to damage themselves than it was under the Me Kinley tariff. And many mature Democrats will feel that party which would legislate to make the Fourth of July celebration more disagreeable and dangerous than it has been is not the party for them.
 But though it Is not probable that the reduction of the duty on firecrackers will largely increase the voting strength of the Democratic party 1t cannot be denied that there is a certain consisten- cy in it. Cheap noise, smoke and bad odors Is a fair description of the Demo cratic government.

-------------------------- ' B.E1lSHLON NOTES.
Close Bodices are Scarce

Close fitting bodice fronts are rarely seen now but their absence doesn't lead to any lack of variety, for the number of loose fronted models is already anna zingly large. Between the closely fit ted front over which a single box-pleat is laid to follow the line of the fit smoothly to a. front that is billowy wonder of puffery- bag projections, there is an intervening variety that is almost endless. Strict adherence to the very spirit of the fashion demands that the bodice should be made and cut perma. nently with baggy front, but gowns al- ready on hand can be made to serve
 Here is one simple way: A baggy front may be made either of material to match or to contrast with the bodice folded collar from which boxpleated or loosely bagged piece depends being the usual model. The bag Is adjusted at the foot either to a belt or to a small piece finished with a rosette at each side. Hooks concealed under this piece serve to attach.th foot of the bag to

4 LOTTLKY SOL ElNhg.

Marriage is a lottery and, as is thu lease with other lotteries, there are many
 who hope to draw a. prize in 1t. So they
 invest at least once, and some people
 form a habit of playing the marriage lottery much as others do the Honduras
 affair." A Frenchman who signs him.
 self Comte de Clerico de Saint Germain
 and who appears to be as good a judge
 of human nature as Representative
 Cowell of Waterbury is, has decided to
 take advantage of the lottery habit in such a way as to win himself a fortune and wife, to give his wife proud little, to benefit a Russian newspaper and to help the poor of Russia. His plan is a smooth one. He has written a letter to one of the St. Petersburg newspapers proposing a lottery with himself as the prize. There are to be 1 1,O0O, 900 chances, each ticket to cost one ruble. Any young woman who wishes to pay that amount in the hope of be- coming a countess is entitled to one chance. The onie drawing the Lucky" number Count Clerico promises to mar ry and install as the chatelaine of his French chateau. The proceeds of the lottery he proposes to divide as follows: Two hundred and fifty thousand rubles for himself, 25O,00O for his bride, 250,00O for the journal which conducts the lot tery and 250,0OO for the poor of Russia. The Count argues that this will be the lowest price-one ruble-ever paid by any woman for bona fide title of coun- tess. He declares that he belongs to one of the oldest families in France, has comfortable fortune, unimpeaoha0ble character and an unsul1ied name, and that he will furnish documentary proof of his claims. His fortune, however, he says is not sufficient for him to live in the requisite fin de siecle style.
 The ruble is worth about 75 cents in United States money and if the counts plan goes no fault can reasonably be found with the price of the tickets Of course the count will take a great risk in thus disposing of himself, but his in- vestment in the marriage lottery will bring him what he wants And the woman who gets the title for seventy five cents will also get what she wants She will have, too, the satisfaction of having made much better bargain than some women who have recently bought titles have made.

 A number of New Haven ladies are
 trying to establish a summer home
 for female employees in stores, shops, offices, etc., where they can obtain
 board at nominal cost. Will you
 kindly assist us? If so, please make,
 as We have done, two copies of this let ter, changing the date and putting the next higher number at the top. Num- Der the two alike and send two to your friends. Please send this letter to the treasurer, MT. Y, enclosing 10 cents in stamps or silver. If you do not wish to aid in this charity. kindly return this letter to = without stamps, that we may know the chain is broken. Contributors receiving letter twenty-one will return without malnng copies to -. The progress of this will be reported in the New Haven papers. Although this may seem of small importance to you, u,anyone breaking the chain involves serious loss to the enterprise"
 The tramp is thought to be a pestifer- ous nuisance; here we have him multi piled in geometrical progression. For every one that comes to his door the pestered citizen is asked to send two tramps to his neighbors' doors-and he is besought not to interrupt the process sion; which, by the time ''letter-twen- ty-one" reaches the treasurer" will number more than twenty-six for every dweller in New Haven (n1an, woman or chilD And if We give ten cents to everyone of this army of beggars, the amount will be S209, 715 10--which, prop erly administered, would be enough for a winter as we'll as summer home" The cost of keeping up this procession, if we send our letters through the post office, will be $129, ,S29O6.

CT the enterprise" is to be sectarian, or to be under the truly catholic control of the public. No such sum of money for any such purpose-nor for any other, it might almost be said-can be raised in this community from the adherents of any one communion; and the communi- ty, if 1t knows what it's about, is not going to put any such sum into the hands of irresponsible persons-persons not responsible to the public in regard to it's disposition.
 The merits of the proposed charity" are not here in question. We call att tention to the absurdity of its propor- tions and to the intolerable nuisance of "chain-letter" begging; these will be questioned only by those hoping to prof 1t by an avalanche of silver.

A discussion of international interest has grown out of the naming of rose. An American rose grower recently in- troduced in this country what he claim ed to be new" rose. He baptized 1t Belle Siebrecht," and, as 1t had many points of merit, it speedily achieved fame under this name. And now comes the Gardeners Chronicle declaring that the Belle siebrecht" is not an American rose at all, that it was not originated by the American grower who introduced it here, and that the name Belle Sic brecht" is a mere alias assumed with out right or justification. According to this authority, Belle Siebrecht" is re- ally Mrs. W. J. Grant," and the rose was first propagated three years ago by a firm of florists in Ireland. It was ex- hibited there under its matronly title

A new way of collecting bad debts has made its appearance in Maine A young woman of alleged great attractiveness is the advance agent. She calls on the local merchants and secures their mem bership in the new agency. A few days after her departure there appears i'm town a number of men dressed in bright green coats, who get the particulars of old debts and debtors from the members and then proceed to call on the victims The contract provides that the horribly conspicuous collectors shall make fifteen calls a day on each creditor, meeting them anywhere and everywhere. The scheme is reported to be a big success, as most of the debtors are glad to make a prompt settlement rather than have the whole neighborhood see them haunt ed by the green-coatod spectre.

''What am I to do with these?" inquir- ed the rich man. With a genial smile Kullak replied: why, the other day you asked me after dinner to make a little music for you, and now ask you to mend these boots for me. Each to his trade"
