DAVIS SPEAKS.


Music Between
Speeches.
, In front of the Ocala House last
night was large ard lively crowd
listening to democratic speeches
and the beautiful strains of music
by the band.
After a large crowd had been
called together by music from the
band Mr.. Eugene O'Dunne was
introduced and spoke for about
thirty minutes, telling bis hearers
Of the good results of free coinage
of silver and a Jeffersonian admin
istration. His speech was well
received and applauded. Again
music was rendered by the band
and then Hon. r. w Davis
mo united the platform and cspti-
waited the audience by his funny
stories ard convincing free silver
arguments. Mr.. Davis SAID he
wanted to go TO congress worse
than anybody and he wanted that
5000 so he might get a streak of
lean along 2 with the fat and in his
great desire to get the votes he
always promised the people some
thing everywhere he went. He
said the last time he was here be
noticed that all at once the electric
lights went cut and he asked some
one who did that and they saic
HuIbert Anderson, so he made
up his mind it was one of them
republican frauds and he thought
Ocala should not be treated il
this way and therefore if he got tc
congress he proposed tc
make Ocala a port of entry anc
build four light houses, one at each
corner of the square. Then hi
said he was going TO help tht
Metropolitan band also. If ht
got there he would try to get al
appropriation from congress t.
buy the boys set of silver horn
with gold mouth pieces so tha
when they played they would a
ways blow 10 TO I. In conclusion
he said he wanted all of the vote
and his prayer was like the brav
hunter who met the bear in th
woods and bad nothing TO defen
himself with but pocket knife
The man ran out of the path an
got down bthind log to send u
petition TO his maker and saic
Oh, Lsrd, thou knowest that thi
is going to be great bear fgh
and thou seest the small weapo
with which | have to defend m
self, therefore please help me, br
If thou can't help me, please don
help the bear.
Now, says Mr.. Davis, my r
quest is Ike this mans; if yo
can't help ne, pleee don't help til
other fellow.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Other Peoples Tea-Paste For Paper
Hanging Poster Par
ty Is Sport.

If you are a tea connoisseur, you will
know what "other peoples tea" means.
You will know what it is to endure it,
to be disappointed by it, to make up
your mind to expect it, and yet when
you come to reflect to find yourself won
dering over it-wondering how it is that
while we all talk so much about a cup
of tea it is so usual q thing to meet with
inferior stuff not worthy of the name.
What is the making of good tea? Every
body who knows anything about the
matter will at once say, first, boiling
water. But does any one know what
boiling water is? 1t is not to be con-
founded with water merely on the move,
nor with water that has been standing
long enough CT near enough to the fire
to become tepid before it is boiled. Then,
overboiled water must equally be avoid
ed. Next, the teapot should be, if not
what they would call in Ireland ''mad
hot. y something at least not far from it.
AS to quantity, some teapots seem to
require less tea than others, and tea
spoon is an elastic measure when ap-
piled to s'dry measure that is, solids.
A tea cozy, it is said, should be SO made
as to allow the steam to escape unim-
peded through the spout. Lastly, there
is great art in pouring out tea. Some
times the tea is made worse than it need
be under the management of the tea
president. We have noted this difference
with corresponding regret, and rejoicing
when the teapot has changed hands from
day to day in the same home circle. But
when all is said and done, it remains
strange, unsolved riddle to even skilled
teamakers why, with the best attention
and care, their tea should turn out SO
variable thing.
An ex-Ceylon tea planter is emphatic
on quite new point-namely, that no
water should be added to the teapot
after the tea is once made. He insists
that directly additional water comes in
contact with the leaves an injurious
chemical effect takes place. When, on
pouring out several cups, it becomes
necessary to reduce the strength, water
should be put, he says, into the cups,
not into the pot. Another thing this tea
planter insists upon is the harm of
drinking cheap teas. He says that many
cheap teas are nice enough to the taste
A little pekoe or other good tea mixed
with great deal which is pernicious
gives what is called character. /" To
show how the quality of tea affects
the nervous system he quotes a tea faster
who told him how his hand shook and
trembled after tasting (not swallowing)
teas of inferior sort. Yet it is the com
monest thing for ladies to boast of the
low price they give for their teas.

Paste For Paper Hanging.

Decorator and Furnisher gives these
directions for making paste:
First heat water to boiling, then add
-four, with constant stirring. To pre-
vent the formation of Jumps. the -four
may be passed through a sieve SO as to
insure more equable distribution
Agitation is continued until the heat
has rendered the mass of the desired
consistency, and after few moments
further boiling it is ready for use. In
order to increase its strength, powdered
rosin, in the proportion of one-sixth to
one-fourth of the weight of the -four, is
added.
To prevent its souring oil of cloves
or a few drops of carbolic acid are add
ed, but it is advisable not to make up
more than is needed at one time, as it
is so simple to make taking as it does
so very little time and material.

Short items.

For a week the secretary OF the
Passaic Democratic County Commit
tee has been sending out strong hon
est money literature printed in the
German language. An honest money
Democrat had sent big bundle of
the leaflets to him and he did not dis
cover the difference until Tuesday.
Now he has blood in his eye.
A fire, mysterious as to its origin,
occurred at Oak Shades, between
Matawan and Keyport, at 2 O'Clock
Wednesday morning, in house own
ed by Patrick O'Connor. The house
had been unoccupied for week.
The fire was discovered by Augustus
Heiser. who saw flames bursting from

The trial of Asher Fleming, for the
attempted murder of his wife in the
woods near Peapack, ended in the

An Old chestnut tree which has
stood on Anderson Readings land,

was cut down on Wednesday. For
the past twenty-one years honey bees
have made their home in the tree,
and when it was cut down nearly 100
pounds of honey was found. 1t was
taken from the bees with great
difficulty. Tradition has it that
Washington once stood under this
tree.

The Poster Party.

This is an amusing entertainment
given by the modern hostess, who i'll
each invitation must suggest to the in
vited guest what poster or picture or
magazine she is to copy in her costume
In preparing these dresses the material
used can be as expensive or as cheap as
desired Table Talk explains that the
gentlemen are expected to inform them
selves of the politics, religious views,
ETC., of the publication they represent
and air them with energy. The ladies'
as a rule, take up some noticeable fea-
ture Of the book or magazine and exag-
gerate it in an amusing way. From
these suggestions guesses are made as to
the characters, books, ETC., represented
and the prizes awarded accordingly.

Nitrogen In cottonseed Meal.

The Connecticut station experiments
have demonstrated that the nitrogen in
cottonseed meal and linseed meal is
fully as available as that in dried blood
and more SO than in tankage Nitrate
of soda and cottonseed meal will give
the desired combination of mineral and
organic nitrogen at least cost
The more intelligent farmers seem to
understand this, for immense quantities
OF cottonseed moal have been used in
bone mixtures this year The bright
yellow meal should always be used.
The dark. unhulled meal is costly at any
price at which it is now offered. In es-
timating the cost of potash in the same
way it has been found that muriate is
by far the cheapest source, in some
large lots falling below cents a pound
in price

The Army Worm.

The army worm has come and gone.
The caterpillars that did SO much dam
age are now sheltered under stones,
boards, grass or rubbish along fences
or burrowed in the ground, passing
through the pupa stage. In this connec-
tion, Rural New Yorker says: "We need
not fear them again this season, but we
may prevent future broods by killing all
we can of this years crop. Wherever it
is possible burn over the grass or grain
fields where the worms were seen.
Burn along the fences and clean up the
rubbish. A heavy roller on level fields
will kill many of the worms. Where
furrows were made to stop the worms,
the grass and rubbish left at the sides
should be carefully burned or removed,
for in such places are the worms likely
to be found. y

Edward Nevins, who keeps a gro
Gerry store at Paterson, caused con
siderable excitement in that neigh
borhood on Saturday by hoisting a
big black flag uron the pole over his
store. American flags were flying
everywhere in the neighborhood and
the pirates flag shone dark against
the national colors. The flag was
hoisted about II A. NJ. but little at
tention was paid to it until about
noon, when crowd gathered. New
ms refused to say why he put ont
the flag and also refused to pull it
down. Finally delegation of Gus
toners called on Nevins. and he con
sented to haul down the banner.

Suits, vet remain. No such bargains
have ever been placed on the market

The opportunity to buy fine cloth

protection From Early Frost.

In districts in Japan where fruits
and vegetables are liable to suffer from
early spring frosts-or, to speak mete-
orologically, late spring frosts-they
carefully preserve all the prunings of
their trees and make heaps of them in
various outlying portions of the Or
chards. When the frost likely to do injury
is imminent. they start one of these
brush fires in the direction from which
the wind comes. They only make fire
enough to make smoke, as explained
in Meehan's Monthly. To make fire
has tendency to bring the cold into
the orchard rather than to keep it out
Heat rarefes or lightens the atmosphere,
and the cold or heavier air presses for
ward unto the vacuum made by the
heat expanded. They depend on the
smoke and not the heat for protection.

The Defeat of Mr.. Danser.

The Democrats put forth every
effort to regain control of the Cour
House and they succeeded electing
Mr.. Fields Sheriff by plurality of
about 706. The Republicans have
lost vantage ground in the defeat
of their Sheriff that cannot we'll be
estimated at this time. If Mr.. Danser
had been elected it would have made
the Democratic fights for other
County offices in future years almost
hopeless. While we cannot but de-
plore the wholesale trading among
Republicans that made Mr.. Fields
successful yet the Democrats have
even a worse complaint than we have
on that score as they sacrificed every
nominees must feel anything but
satisfied at the shameful way they
have been treated. Mr.. Danser dur
ing his canvass, did more to heal dis
sentions in the Republican party
than any other candidate. He was
untiring in his work for the whole
ticket and he deserved success. 1t
was great pity that Republicans
could not have at least obtained con
troll of one Office in the Court House
when it could have been done SO
easily and it was great mistake in
not standing together and eecting
Mr.. Danser. We hope that the Re
publicans by their action in voting
for Mr.. Fields have not forever
thrown away their chances to elect
County officials in Monmouth.

LASH INJUNCTION HOLDS.
Pilliwink Dispensary Is Declared a
Nuisance,

The argument for the demurrer to
the petition in the Lash injunction
case was heard in district court. The
demurrer was over-ruled and a mo-
ton was then filed to dissolve the in
junction. Ii the motion to dissolve
is over-ruled the county attorney will
make application for citation to make
the defendant show cause why he
should not be dealt with for contempt
Of court. The law provides for con-
tempt fine Of not less than 800 and
80 days in Jail.
The motion to dissolve the iniunc-
tion in the Lash cash was over-ruled
in district court and consequently it
holds. As Lash did not cease busi-
ness after the injunction was issued
to restrain him from so doing in the
location where he is now operating, he
may be held liable for contempt of
court and the county attorney may
so act. The action will doubtless
close up the establishment, which
was what Mr.. Smith went after. He
has pushed the case hard and his
work has won.
