The Rain bow Party.

The latest fad is the rainbow party,
which derives its name from the fact
that the girls wear pretty aprons of
every shade and hue which their good
or bad taste may suggest, all of which
are left unhemmed. Every girl has a
number, and two of them take charge
of box containing duplicates, which
is placed near the cloakroom and from
which the men, having previously
bought tickets, draw a number, armed
with which they set forth on q voyage
of discovery to find the young lady
wearing the corresponding one ON her
apron.
When all have found their partners,
the master of the ceremonies pro.
claims the cOnditions-namely, that
the young men are to set about hem
ming the aprons, the one acquittine
himself the best gaining the prize
The girls supply the cavaliers with
needles and thread, and at the call o
"Time" the fun begins with the ef.
forts of the poor fellows to thread
their needles. At the second call ol
"Time!" the work is handed in to the
committee, which passes judgment
upon it and awards the prizes, which
sometimes are of great value, tt
the victors, after which the aprons are
ratified for, and the party winds uI
with dainty little supper.

THE WHITE HOUSE SKELETON
Some Facts That the Dig nifty OF the
office Concealed.

All that goes on in Washington,
and especially at the White House, is
not known to the general public, and
the following bit of delectable infor-
nation concerning the domestic rela-
ton of the octopus who has disgraced
the administration and'the country,
will be surprise rs well rs shame
to the American people.
A lady now visiting this city for a
few days, says this self-complaisant
reporter, who had access to the White
House, speaking from her personal OBJ
servation and knowledge, said last
evening that Cleveland was so brutal
in his treatment of his wife that she
packed up three times and left him,
going home to New York. After he
got over his brutal passion, he induced
her to return. He got drunk fire.
quently, and in his rage would beat
and bruise his wife and use the most
profane language, until life was bur-
den and she had to flee from his pres
ence. He would get so drunk at times
that it required four men to pack him
from one room to another and fling
him on the bed. He was ill-tempered
about his family departments and
many people were ashamed to be
caught in there when he was on one
of his tantrums. The informant also
gives the deplorable fact that Baby
Ruth" the oldest child, is born idiot.
These facts have been withheld from
the public in order that the White
House might not be shamed during
the administration. 1t was intimated
that Mrs. Cleveland will not put up
with his brutal conduct now. AS he
is worth over $2OOO,OOO, although his
salary amounted to only 100000 in
the four years he was in, she will stand
a chance to leave him with enough to
keep her through life. 1t is not to be
wondered at now that he proved an in
crate to his political friends, when he
was a brute in his household.

sanship had entered the discussion.
He thinks the passing and placing on
the statute books of such law as this
would mean greater disaster to the
States best interests than any other
measure that could be proposed. He
prOphesied that should this law be en-
acted the first act of the next legis-
lature would be to repeal it at the de-
mand of the people. In response to
a question he said it was advertising to
the world that We are taking the first
step i'll reputation
Senator Miller of Walla Wa,'ny /
pealed to the Republican side OF the
house to be fair in its treatment of the
Question, and of those who differ from
them. He did it nicely and fairly,
and Deckebach commended Miller for
what he termed a merited rebuke to
his Republican colleagues.
Senator Dorr strongly maintained
the legislature had no right to pass o
law to throw an obstacle in the way of
the making of such construct as two
persons may desire, in itself legal and
right, for such law is an obstacle to the
prosperity of the people.
Senator Davis suggested that the
motion prevail, so that the bill may
be perfected. His suggestion is that
the law be so framed as to provide
the maker of q contract shall make
but one covenant in contract. That
is to say, when mortgage is given it
shall not be a note, and when a note
be given it shall not be accompanied
by a mortgage. 1t would abolish the
deficiency judgment without subject
ing the act to the objections necessar-
| lily urged against the act that has
has passed.
Van Patten argued that the duty of
the legislature is to legislate in the
interest of the poor and weak, as the
wealthy and strong are always able to
take care of themselves. The law as
passed was such law, and he there
fore opposed the reconsideration.
The Senate refused to reconsider
the vote on the Crow deficiency judg-
ment bill. The motion was lost by a
tie vote of II.
The Senate met in the evening to
consider the House railroad bill. The
original copy of the bill was called for
and was missing. The record showed
that it had been sent to the House and
search for it was made there. 1t could
not be found, and after passing Yeend's
bills relating to the conduct of the
penitentiary, the Senate adjourned.

Bananas a. Food.

Few people outside of the tropics
value the banana as food and know
the real merits of the fruit. They eat
it i'll the raw state and think that is
the only way it is good, but when they
have once tried cooking it, they will
find it altogether different eating.
The banana is delicious baked as you
would a potato. 1t requires only
twenty minutes to bake, and at the
end of that time is soft and mealy.
1t is most nourishing baked, but is
also excellent fried and eaten as a
sweet, or boiled and served as a vege-
table. Bananas should not be eaten
raw, as they are most indigestible and
are full of animal germs. 1t is claimed
that baked bananas are ideal food for
nervous persons and brain workers
and should be eaten oftener than
meat.

 The Decatur News takes this sensible view of things:
 "A word to some quarrelsome fellows: Quilt abusing Governor Johnston; quit cussing the quarantine; let Dr. Sanders rest in peace; pity the poor refugees; sympathize with the bereaved; repent of your wrong dofngs and give of your means to help the needy and destitute"
