TO TEST A TURKISH RUG.

A test of the genuineness of an Ori-
entail rug or carpet which a Constanti-
nople gentleman says is sure is to ex-
anime carefully to see if each stitch Is
knotted, instead of trusting to those
easily-put-on marks of age, patches
holes and crooked places. If the stitcn
is knotted and firm the rug is genuine
Turkish, but if the stitch can be pulled
out it is imitation, no matter how closely
the original rug may have been copiei
in pattern or color. An Oriental dealers
test is to drop a live coal on the rug
and when it has burned q little to re-
move it quickly with the fingers. If The
scorching entirely disappears, leaving
the original colors unaltered, 1t is proof
of the genuineness of the rug.-New
York Evening Post.

BALLorINd FOR SENATORS
Fails to Relieve the Anxiety Of Csndt
dates
Chairman Jones Earnestly Adviser
Idaho Democrats to SEND Dubois
Back to the Senate.

SAL TLAKE, Utah, Jan. 23.-The bal.
loting for United States senator for the
past five days has resulted in very littl3
change from the first ballot. Thatcher
has shown the most strength so far. He
received nineteen votes on Tuesday and
had twenty-th three votes today.
Rawlins started with 1 Svotes, dropped
to 49, but had IS on the last ballot today
Henderson started with 16 votes and
has increased to IS. The adjournment
this afrtenoon appears to have been
brought about by the concerted action
of Thatcher and Henderson, forces and
that led to rumor that they feared any
further ballotting today would show In
, creased strength for Rawlins.
WASHINGTON.
OLYMPIA, Wash, Jan. 29.-Speaker
| Cline's stock advanced in the ballotting
| for United States Senator today and the
contest at present is between him and
| Judge Turner Other candidates remain
! in the field, including Senator Squire,
but the lines have been distinctly drawn
| between Cline and Turner, with the
Populists on one side. and the silver Re-
| publicans, Democrats and Fusionists on
| the other, and the fight has sifted down
/ to a struggle between these two.
Turner must gain ten more votes
! than Cline, but IL either can win, the
| conditions favor Turner. This is made
apparent by Turner's advocacy of eau
/ Gus and Clines refusal to assist in ar
ranging one.
Four ballots were taken today maxi
ing thirteen since Wednesday. AS the
result of an agreement made at a secret
| meeting last night. Cline or the first bal
lot today jumped to the front with "a,
as against II received on the last ballot
received yesterday. Turner got "a, same
as yesterday. Cline, increased his
strength from Daniels forces mainly
and by swallowing entire those of Baker
| and RAIDER.
FAVORS DUBOIS.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator
Jones, chairman of the Democratic ma
tional committee. today sent telegram
to Secretary Walsh in Idaho saying:
"On full consultation of the situation
we believe the controversy in Idaho to-
day Is the same that was fought in the
last campaign-that the interest of the
national Democracy demands the cleo
ton of Dubois, who, with Teller and
others, led the silver Republicans from
the Republican party. His defeat by
! Democratic votes or by the failure to
obtain them will not only affect our par
ty in the senate but will weaken and dis
sipate our strength in the west and GEN.
tral west. We regard his election of SUI
preme Importance Can we present q
stronger argument to our brother DEM
ocrats of Idaho?"
