Little aud other Democratic leaders have al
ready begun the fight for silver by series OF
greetings TO be held all over the State. LoRis-
iaua has caught the fever and Timetable Con-
veHtion has been held in New orlcans, at which
the attendance aggregated over $500 Demo
Gratis. The Federal officials, as well as many
other leaders, are against tue movement on the
ground that IL unnecessarily throws a disturb

Iced tea is best whom made after the follow
ing recipe: Make fresh tea with freshly boiling
water, and when it is strong enough-without
the aid of boiling or steeping-pour it off from
the leaves aud set it away in pitcher until it
has cooled. Have cracked ice in the glasses
around the table, put a slice of lemon and one
or two sugar Jumps in each glass, and then
pour in the tea. This makes the most deli.
cately favored and the least harmful of drinks,
and is much more refreshing on a hot Summer
day than ice water or mint juleps or any of the
other favorites, except good lemonade.

The daintiest kind of frock is pictured, it
being Summer silk with collar and cuffs Of
plain silk and sheer lawn ones overlaid them.
Striped pale.b blue and white wash silk is par
ticularly pretty combination, with plain pale
blue silk for the straight collar aud deep cuffs.
The waist has box pleat, which may be of the
plain or striped silk-lace- edged down the
front. The collars and cuffs are prettiest when
made of fine lace and sheer lawn with hand
sewing. The little ones sold at the stores for
80 cents or 81 are pretty but do not do up"
as nicely as the handmade ones. The frock
would be pretty in tan-colored silk with fine
white lines, or the pale-grce or lavender or
in the darker colors. These wash silks are so
mex pensive that they within the reach of
most everybody. Tuenty-nine cents yard
will buy thin quality, aud for so or 20 cents
one can buy silk that may be washed four or
five times without losing its prettiness.

A sensible protest has been made by some
mothers against the "nerve-trying" toys for
children. Games like "Pigs in Clover "-one
can safely speak against that now, it has been
so long dead-is only one example of host Of
exasperating toys puzzles, the solution OF
which brings absolutely no benefit. There are
baseball puzzles, twisted rings and many other
devices-all hard on children. An older person
can stop playing with them when he thinks
best,-unless he be weakminded; then nothing
can be done with him anyway,-but children
become so absorbed in the puzzle and are so
disappointed with failure to work it ont, that
the strain can hardly be said to add to their
profit or pleasure in any way, unless it be in the
cultivation of patience, and that result is
doubtful.

scntatNes Treasurer jackson Of the Cam
bridge University Athletic club was in
vtod TO conduct Che negotiations for them
looking to a meeting with Yale in Amer
lea and authorized TO officially accept
Yale's counter challenge subject TO all
the prclimiuaries being satisfactorily an
ranged. The following are the conditions.
Cambridge prefers sept. 2S as the date
for the proposed international contest in
track athletics, but if that date is inpos-
siblc Cambridge is willing TO accept Oct.
81 the date specified in Yale's counter
challenge, although the latter date is most
inconyenient As Yale insists upon ex-
cluding the three milo run Cambridge
proposes that there be II events the 100

putting-the conditions to be precisely the
same as those formulated by Oxford and
Yale in the events on this side held in
1894, viz: That competitors shall be guar
nnteed to be bona ilde amatours and resi-
dent students, qualified BY their standing
as such.
Tho competitions arc to he under the
Oxford Cambridge rules and the following
additional conditions are'to be imposed IN
tho sprint races, viz: That no preliminary
trinls Or exercises be allowed. Once The
competitors toe the mark and are in ths
siart0rs hands, no photographers shall b'
allowed at or near the start in any sprint
\ races.
The trophy Cor the winners for the join
event is not to exceed 500 in value, as wa
the case in the Oxford Yale meet last year
Cambridge is willing to start for Amer
ica on Aug ~, in company with the Lon
don Athletic club, OF, il Yale prefers, Cam
bridge is willing to come BY the Cunar'
steamer in the following week.
il is probable that the interests Of Cam
bridge win be supervised by President W

ident of the same university athletic assC
citation. Both are famous and practice

LONDOv July l0.-A reply was sent to
the letter addressed by II. y. Goyelin,
chairman of the University Of Pennsylya-
mia graduates committee on behalf Of B.
n Kcndrlck, president Of the Intercolle-
giate Athletic Association Of America, to
w. T. Oakley ana H. S. Horan, presidents
of tho Oxford and Cambridge Athletic
clubs, renewing the challenge to meet a
team solicited from American universities
ia series OF events in track athletics,
which the Oxford and Cambridge univer-
sities representatives lately declined.
Nicssrs. Oakley and Horan's reply is to
tho effect that it would not be desirable
for their clubs TO abandon their original
policy, which was that oxford and Cam
bridge would meet Yale and Harvard this
ycar either i'm America or England.
Since, however, this was rendered inn
possible, owing TO the action Of Harvard,
Mother club was inclined TO take further
steps this year ia regard TO q meeting be-
| tween "a combination toam of the English
universities and a similar team OF the
American universities.
Even IL IL were deemed cxpedicnt foT
the presidents Go rcycrse this policy and
ncccpt the renewed challenge of the Inter
collegiate Athletic association, IL would
not be possible for them TO give effect Z
such intention, owing Go the long vacation
having commenced and tho undcrgradu
