George e. Green, of New York, nomi-

Thursday's Session.


There was a lack of interest in the con-
vention when it opened at IL a. IN. Thurs
day, on account of the overshadowing i'm
portance of the meeting of the committee
on resolutions in session at the Hollenden
Hotel. The committee on rules reported
that the rules formulated by Thomas b.

Resolutions being next in order, Mr..
Blackwell, of Massachusetts. called for
an Endorsement of woman suffrage, which
called forth loud cries of "No! Nor He
then offered another resolution arraigning
the Democratic party for not taking action
in regard to the Armenian atrocities. Then
resolutions began to pour in like rain. as
fast as the clerk could read them. They
provided for sympathy with Cuba, for
pensions for the workngman, for free sill
yer, and for almost everything else which
conventions discuss.
After indulging in bitter speeches for
four hours in the consideration of the
address TO the people" a new departure
was taken by Senator Patton, of MIichi-
gan, Offering the following as a substi-
tute for the report of the subcommittee:
Whereas, Section 13 of the constitution of
the Republican League Of the United States
says: "This league shall not In any manner
endeavor to influence the action of any ma
tlonal, State, county or municipal conven-
tion." the delegates Of the Republican
League Of the United States, in convention
assembled, do hereby renew their allegiance
TO the principles of the Republican party,
and pledge their best efforts for the success
of the candidates of that party. Relieving
that this convention has no Instructions
from the Republicans Of the United States
or Jurisdiction under our constitution to
frame party platforms, we hereby refer all
resolutions In relation to public questions
to the Republican convention of 1896 with
entire confidence that Its action will re-
dound to the prosperity of our people and
the continued glory and advancement of the
country.
Chairman Nagle of the committee on
time and place reported that the members
had agreed TO unanimously recommend
Milwaukee as the next place of meeting,

MUSLIN CURTAINS.


Directions for laundering the Summer
Hangings.
Exceedingly pretty effects may now
be obtained by the use ofsheer draper
ries in color These usually are cotton
muslins, though the Madras draperies
that copy stained-glass effects are
mixed with silk and wool. In the sim
pie colored muslins which sell at thir.
ty-fve or fifty cents a yard, the very
prettiest effects may be obtained.
Thus there are cream grounds, fig.
ured with delft blue iris, pale rose
colorcd lilies oryellow daffodils, which
make most charming draperies for
rooms in blue, pink or yellow. The
Madras draperies and Others which are
medley OF oriental tones of color,
are suitable for dining-rooms, libraries,
as well as parlors, while the simpler
muslin draperies are used in bedrooms
and less elaborate country parlors.
Nearly all these draperies require
the same treatment in washing, and
can be laundered at home with little
care. Soak the curtains for an hour or
SO in cold water, in which handful of
salt has been added for every gallon.
When this is done wash them in luke
warm soapsuds, sousing them up and
down and rubbing them as little ar
possible, and then very gently. When
this is done rinse them through sew
eral waters, so as to get all the soap
suds out OF them.
In case the color will bear it Il few
drops of ammonia to the gallon may be
added to the soapsuds in which the
curtains are washed. The only way
to find out whether this will be safe is
to test sample Of the goods in little
water treated with ammonia. Dry the
curtains in kitchen with a
hot fire, so that they will dry as quick.
ly as possible, and with the shades
drawn, as even the presence of strong
light will sometimes fade them. After
this starch them in very thin, cold
starch, enough simply to give a body
to the goods, and no more. Madras
curtains require very little starch
and must be done up soft, but they
can not be left without starch, or they
will hang sleazily.
After starching the muslins, squeeze
them as dry as you can with the hand
and roll them up in plain, white mus
lin to absorb the starch. When they
are very nearly dried, iron them on the
wrong side, using cloth between the
curtain and iron. BE caref,,l to keep
the edges straight. IN. ibune.

CHEESE MACHINERY.
Instructions For Those Who Want to NJ AXE
Cheese on q Small Scale.

VI w NV VAIN w hhhu
Cheese on a Small Scale.
Strain the milk into vat and add
half pint of rennet to 100 gallons OF
milk, which should bring the curd in
one hour, when the temperature is at
about eighty degrees. Stir the rennet
and milk thoroughly. Many of the
unknown troubles of the amateur
cheese maker arise from the use of ill
conditioned rennct; if doubt as to its
purity exist it should be filtered
through flannel or cotton fiber. As
the condition of rennet, quality Of
milk and temperature vary at nearly
every cheese making, the prepared
rennct tablets sold by dairy supply
houses are undoubtedly more certain
in results.
To the beginner a thermometer ac.
curately graduated is essential to sue
cess. The curd is cut into one inch
squares Immediately after it has
formed, to hasten the separation Of
whey and curd. The cutting is repeat
ed two or three times at half hour in
tervals, and then dipped carefully into
a basket in which a strainer has been
placed. Arrange the basket on lad.
der over the whey receiver and cut the
curd occasionally to hasten draining.
When compact and fairly free from
whey, tie the strainer ends by opposite
corners and hang in cool place until
the morning run is made, Proceed with
the mornings milk precisely in the
anne way until ready to hang. This
curd requires little more draining
that it may be firm and decidedly free
from whey.
Cut the night and morning curds in
slices, place in bowl and chop into
pieces a-half inch in diameter. Pour
over the curds a gallon of hot whey OF
water and stir until squeaking sound
is made. Drain off the scalding water,
add salt to taste and thoroughly mix
in the curd, place dry strainer in the
hoop, carefully introduce the curd,
fold the strainer neatly over the top
put the follower on and consign to the
press. Only enough weight should be
used to nicely consolidate the cheese
and press out the remaining portions
of whey.
If placed in the press in the morn
ing, at night turn the cheese, substi
tute fresh ST amer, the next day re
move from the press, butter the sides
top and bottom, and place on an odor
