A LUXURIOUS BATHROOM
Designed by the Daughter Of Claus
Spreckels for Her Own Use.
WIN Cost s1o.OOO-UnIess She Becomes
ReconcIled to Her Father She win
Never Enjoy Eta Magnif-
cent Appointments.

A New York Herald special from
Trenton, N. j., says: If Mrs. Thomas
Watson becomes reconciled to her
father, Claus Spreckels, she will have
the most luxurious bathroom ever con-
structed in America. The thing and
decorations for this bathroom were
viewed by q delegation of architects,
decorators and sanitary plumbers
from New York and other places.
The bathroom will cost $4,000 and
will be part of a suite of rooms which
Emma Spreckels, daughter of the sugar
king, designed for her own use after
inspecting famous houses in all parts
of Europe, where she travelled for the
sole purpose of getting ideas for the
Sc, 900, 900 home her father is erecting
on the Pacific coast. Her apartments
were designed to cost more than $780,
900. Her ideas formed, the architects
were told to try and get all the materi-
ais in this country, and the order for the
bathroom finally landed in Trenton,
where there are several concerns which
make decorated tiles and porcelain
bathtubs. The concern which received
the order began work on last June, and
gave an exhibition of it's product. There
were many women, in the crowd which
viewed the decorated tiles.
The bathroom will be only ~ feet
wide by sR feet long. The floor is to
be covered with caustic tile of small d.
mansions, in neutral tints. The sides
8nd ceiling are to be of tiles four by
five inches. Each side of the wall will
be paneled. The dadoes will be in
solid colors, but each main panel viii
represent bathing scenes from the
classics. One panel will show brook,
in which two women are wading, one
leading child, while Cupid will sport
on frieze. The ceiling is of delicately
tinted tile.
Metal swinging doors lead from the
room. The bathtub is of porcelain, the
faucets are of solid gold, and so is the
piping for the shower and needle
streams.
Since the heiress drew her plans in
colored inks she has been married. Al
though only 81 years old she was mar.
ried to Thomas Watson, who is SO years
old. 1t was a secret marriage, the day
before Christmas, in San Jose. Bride
and groom are now living at the Cali
fornia hotel in San Francisco. When
the bride heard that her father objected
to her marriage she sent back the
100000 which he had given her.

VIII Be Five During the Coming Season
An Opportunity for American Ladies'.
American ladies DESTROYS of pres
entation at the drawing rooms of the
coming season can rely upon five taking
place-three at which the princess Of
Wales will act for the queen and two
which will be held by the queen her
self in May and early June. The rule
is to be strictly enforced that no more
than 200 presentations are to be permit
ted at each drawing. The drawing
room in June will just precede the
diamond jubilee" functions, and will
form brilliant prelude to those cele-
brationS. Some of the European
princes, who come to the jubilee, will
have arrived and attend the drawing
room. Her majesty continues in fine
health, is busted over the programme
for the diamond jubilee, every detail of
which she insists on supervising, and
has still, according. to court report, q
good ten years of working activity in
her.
The sensational reports of her illness
have elected semi-official denial. 1t
is stated that even her chronic winter
rheumatism is abating. The court re-
turns from Osborne to Windsor castle
on February10. On March her majesty
will start for CimieZ, France

A DISASTROUS EXPERIMENT.
Jamaica Falls in Her Attempt to Place
Her Fruits on London Market.


Her Fruits on London Market.
1t is apparent from the ill-foytune
that has attended the shipment Of fruit
from Jamaica that American shippers
of fruit to England have little to fear
from competition in that direction.
When the merchants of Jamaica decided
to embark in the fruit trade in the hope
of recouping themselves for the losses
sustained through the running of the
sugar industry they chartered a steam
er and loaded her with oranges and
bananas for England. The whole cargo
spoiled before the vessel had been many
days at sea. Later another attempt was
made with similar results, the steamer
returning to Kingston after having
been compelled to throw all the fruit
overheard. The latest venture has
been equally as disastrous. The fruit
arrived at London in such bad condition
that all of it was condemned. tits said
that the Jamaica growers are not ac-
Quainted with the methods of picking
and preparing fruit for long sea voy-
ages and until they learn these it will
be impossible for them to gain market
in London.

GRAFTON one day recently Of character
not reported in the medical journals.
The patient was the household cat.
They had noticed her going about with
n lump on the side of the neck. Frank
found a foreign substance beneath the
skin and went to the medical chest and
procured some chloroform. He satu-
rated a rag with it and placed it at
pussy's nose. Soon it was asleep. His
little sister held the cats legs. The
youthful surgeon, with pair of scis-
sors, made an incision in the skin and
took from the cats neck a good-sized
needle, attached to which was a yard
of thread.
With the same needle and thread he
sewed up the wound, and the cat is
as playful as before. The needle had
entered at the throat. The children's
grandmother, Mrs. Hoagland, had left
the room before the operation, and was
surprised at the result when she re-
turned.
