II is, perhaps, needless to recount rea-
sons why Durham and O'Brien might
be averse to any caucus agreement in
which Drew was a component part
hereafter. One had drawn an indict-
ment and the other an unenviable
newspaper notoriety in his own city
OBrien is not under any obligations to
the Republican party, although elected
on it's ticket. He was twice beaten out
Of the place by the Pillsbury influence
which has just gained the elevation Of
Fred b. Snyder to the state legislature,
and that has had tendency to make
him distrustful of the party prophets.
Durham represents a strong Demo-
cratic ward, and could lose little with
his constituency by voting with the
Democrats on organization, especially
as this is his second term, and third
terms are rare in that body.
Aid. Currier, while he submitted to
the party lash In the organization of
the council just going out, has never
been servile since, and the fact that his
fellow Republicans are looking on him
with distruSt, as they did two years
ago. may drive him into a-caucus where
he is assured a cordial reception.
Dickinson and Phillips are believed to
be loosely bound by party lines. and the
Democrats hope to swing in Erick
Rhode, whose constituency is inclined
to Democratic principles. That Rhode
stood by his party in the last organ
ization was accredited in some quarters
to the personal influence Of Aid. Snyder,
with whom Rhode was closely associ-
ated in political deals. This time Sny-
der has other deals to occupy his at
tention more directly.
The fourteenth vote the Democrats
hope to secure elsewhere in the Re-
publican ranks. - -
There are, two strings to their hope,
one that some conscientious Republi-
can will revolt on account of the sus-
picion cast upon all who voted for the
Nicollet avenue paving and other i'm
pIovementS, the other that the turn Of
the political wheel may drive some
Republican, who is spurned by his own
party and menaced by the Good Citi-
zens' league, into spirit of freedom
where he may be tempted by such
plums as the steering committee Of the
Democrats may be: enabled to hang
up in the way Of committee chairman
ships. The Democrats do not assume
that honors such as these will be
lightly esteemed.
There is, however, one possible OBJ
stacle in the way of this scheme, which
should be given expression, and that
is the difficulty Of keeping enough mem
bers of the present city council out Of
Jail to organize the new body with an
effective working majority.

State OmciaIs Can't Ignore Them,
Says the Court.


PIERRE. 8. D., Dec. 25.-Among the
decisions handed down today there are
several of general or special interest.
Among the one In which the decision
was written by Corson. in which the
title is Arthur L. Carter, assignee of
the Free Press company, and w. G..
Yates, VS.. the State Of South Dakota, -
which is brought as an original action
In the court. Carter, as assignee, sued
tor the value of certain printing which
the Free Press and Yates claimed they
were entitled to under contracts with
the state, and which work had been
given to other parties by the state Of
hcials who had the work to give, The
case was submitted to referee, ana
his finding as to the amount Of damage
sustained by the action of the state
officials has been slightly reduced by
the court, and Judgment is given to
Carter for $410 with interest from June
80, 1893. on the claim Of the Free Press;
and for 1866. AZ, with interest from Sep
TENDER "a, 1894, on the claim Of Yates.
This decision will probably lead to
other claims being filed for damage in
cases where state officials have refused
to give out work in accordance WITH
contracts, and allowed favorites to do
the work.

The Correct Thing.

Always get up to shake hands with
a woman; if you are hostess, always
get up for a man, or if you are a
guest, and he is your host; if mutual
visitors you can sit still, unless he is
much older or more celebrated than
you.
When calling, avoid signalling too
patiently to your party your inten-
ton of going; quietly rise, when
they should Immediately follow you,
bowling first to the people they were
at that moment talking to. In no
case should a man or daughter,
etc, precede an older woman on 60

Conversation is an art, and can
scarcely be defined by etiquette, ex-
cept in so far as it should include in
quiries after the health of absent
members Of the family, etc. The art
end is equally unteachable; suffice it
to say, never get up jerkily, breaking
in or abruptly ending a conversation.

typed phrase, 'What a visitation I

A Pretty Quilt.

Those of our readers in search of
new designs for quilts will find the
following helpful to them:
A novel idea for quilt is to get a
large square of some dark thin mate
rial, such as Turkey twill, or fine
cashmere of a rich shade of crimson,
or any other color that will suit the
appointments of the room in which
it is to be used. When it is ready,
piece of white or Turkish toweling
must be tackled very fatty to it, then
a border and four handsome corners
in a good bold design traced on it.
This tracing may first be done
with colored chalk, and then put in
darker with a paint brush dipped in
ink or dark paint. These lines must
next be followed with knitting cot
ton, either white or of any color that
will suit the rest of the work. II
coarse cotton is chosen, one strand at
a time will be sufficient; if not, two,
or even three must be used. The cot
ton is laid down on the outline, and
held in position by the left hand; a
needle threaded with fine white
f1ourishing thread is brought through
from the wrong side close to the line
of knitting cotton, is taken oven it,
and put through the material again
to the wrong side. This catches the
cotton down to the material. The
thrown-over stitches should be plac-
ed about the eighth of an inch apart.
When all the lines are traced out
in this way, the Turkish toweling
must be cut away outside the pat
tern with a sharp pair of scissors
close to the lines of knitting cotton.
Finally, sew down a very fine red
cord close to the outlines already
worked, but outside them, so as to
hide any raw edges that may be left
when the toweling was cut away.
Brown bath toweling may be used
instead of white, as it does not catch
the dust so.

steps in-the great, wide, careless,
inevorable world, which cares moth
ing for any one PERSONS whims and
passion, which requires certain quail
tiles worthy of admiration before it
will admire, and which is, in the
main, a just world in awarding it's
appreciation or indulgence. Into it's
struggles and stress the self-willed,
pampered man or woman must
plunge unstrained, unarmed, often
fatally handicapped. The shock of
the discovery that no one cares par
ticularly what they think, that no
one admires. or even notices, their
pet qualities, that every one resents
their self-indulgences and contrarie-
ties, is a tremendous one, and many
of them are soured permanently at
the outset. They become people who
have a grudge against the world,
who proclaim themselves misunder
stood and unappreciated by all, who
criticise others bitterly and contin-
ually, and who quarrel constantly
with those whose unhappy fate it is
to be connected with them. A spoil
ed girl who is not success in socie-
ty, spoiled wife who is disappointed
in her selfish ambition, spoiled
spinster in a boarding house, a spoil
ed man who failures, well-deserved,
have embittered every thought, a
spoiled valetudinarian who claims on
public sympathy have worn it out
we all know such people, and we can
not help plying the helpless, bit
ter revolt of their undisciplined souls
against the inevitable neglect, the
unshakable justice of the world.
Surely the parent that leaves his
child, as a result of false kindness,
unfit for the battle that must come,
and ''naked to his enemies,' is either
blind or cruel beyond belief. True
parental love is not indulgence but
guidance, and the children of a weak
mother will never rise up and call
her blessed.

Flaxseed is one of the best rem
edies for cold on the lungs. Use
the seed either ground or whole,
pour over it boiling water, let it
steep and drain off the liquor, thin
it sufficiently so that it can be used
for a drink. To every bowlful add
the juice of one lemon and sugar to
make it palatable. Drink freely Of
this whenever thirsty or oftener if
there is little thirst. The result is
