AMERICAN EMPIRE FURNITURE.

e"nao Of the Features That EntitIe This
Style to Notice.
The French revolution Of century
ago was responsible for many things,
good and bad. Among the pleasing
items the birth Of the empire style may
be reckoned. Among the many decora-
tions in this style qnivers, torches and
armorial trophies were freely made use
Of. The following illustrations of en-
piro will demonstrate few Of the fea-
lures which ontitle this style of furniture
to notice.
The broad backed chair makes q fine
looking, comfortable seat. Cleverly hol-
lowed out to catch the back and support
the shoulders, it proffers the acme of
comfort, without, at the same time, be.
ing stuffy.
Passing 20 the couch, we find form
which is very popular. 1t reminds ono
Of the old "high low" designs which

Luckily the main body of the audi.

notice.
The Madrid press is not satisfied with
either his explanations or his military fore
casts and calls upon the government to con-
vene the Cortes promptly and let the coun-
try hear all sides of the question. But the
government is not likely to convoke the
Cortes until spring, when new measures will
have to be voted upon.
People who know, say the government will
leave nothing undone to enable It to announce
before the end February that peace has
been restored in Havana, Matanzas and Pinar
del Rio provinces, and to proclaim admins
tratlve reforms for Cuba there, intimating
publicly how far the present government is
disposed to concede home rule later on,
with the assistance of Parliament.
The governments great wish is to be in a
position to do this in order that the Cubans
and the people of the United States may
know the whole program before Mckinley

BAyARD is GIVEN A BANQUET.

LONDON, Jan. 6.-Thc Article club an as
ISOLATION which is made up OF leading COM
mercial firms OF the country, representing an
aggregate capital OF f1 500, 900 900, the agents
general in London of the colonies, the heads
of the government departments and many
others interested in the commerce Of the
empire, gave banquet tonight at the Hotel
Cecil, the United States ambassador MIR.
Bayard, being the guest OF the evening. the
earl Of Jersey, who succeeds the earl Of
Wnchesca as president of the club, was
chairman and at the conclusion OF the din
ner he opened the proceedings. The earl
made a few remarks In eulogy OF Mr.. Bayard,
and then Sir Robert G. w. Herbert, agent
general in London for Tasmania, toasted the
colonies.
Cardinal Vaughan. archbishop of Westmin-
ster, proposed the toast of The People of the
United States" amid prolonged cheers. He
said: THE United States and Great Britain
have a common mission OF civilization, and
Britons have extended to their American
cousins the hand of fellowship" Cardinal
Vaughan proceeded with words of praise for
Mr. Bayard's tact and kindliness in the re-
cent anxious period growing out OF the
Venezuelan dispute. The United States, he
said had often chosen worthy representa-
tives in England but never had a happier
choice been made than that of Mr.. Bayard,
When Mr.. Bayard arose to reply to this
toast, he received tremendous ovation. He
said: II have sincerely tried TO be faithful
to my trust We look upon you as our Eng
lish cousins, and upon Canadians as our
American half-brothers. There is nothing
In the growth of Canada but what Will
awaken pride in citizen of the United
States. There is not and ought not to
be, any just obstruction between the United
States. Great Britain and Canada. There
should be no divergence by sharp phrases
and insults that sting longer than injuries -
Referring in his usual strain to the rela-
tions between England and the United States,
Mr.. Bayard closed by saying: "If l have
evoked the displeasure of some because l
have sought to preserve amity, | cannot
say | am very sorry. On the contrary /
am rather grateful for the distinction. 1t
is In no spirit of defiance, but in a we'll
considered spirit of gratitude, that l reflect
that | have been able to bring the hands
and hearts of the two countries together.
If that Is my record, I shall carry it away
and keep 1t wherever | CO.
The guests all rose in their places at the
conclusion of the ambassadors speech,
loudly cheering and waving their handker-
chiefs. 1t was the greatest ovation which
has been rendered to Mr.. Bayard during his
service here. He was visibly affected, and
he almost broke down once or twice during
the course of his speech,

FOR FREE HoMESTEADS
The bill providing free homesteads for

from the Indians was then taken up aud de-
bated at length. as it rassed the house the
bill applied only to Oklahoma and exempted
settlers there from the payment OF the govern
ment price heretofore required. AS amended
the bill extends the measure to embrace all
public lands acquired from Indians Letters
from the Interior department and the gov
ernment land office were read stating that
the exemption. If applied to lands in Okla
homa, would result in loss to the United
States of Sl5,50S, ,i62. and ii applied to all
public lands acquired from Indians the loss
would be S5,700O7S, Mr. Pettigrew, in
charge of the measure, urged that the bill
was in line with the government policy of
encouraging and developing the settlement OF
the far west. To compel the settlers on In
dian lands to pay the government rates
meant ruin to the settlers. their enforced
abandonment of the lands and the swelling
Of the idle population of the country. Mr..
Pettigrsw read the platforms of the politi-
cal parties favorable to free homesteads.
(which platform does the senator like
best?" asked Mr.. Chandler
81 must say like the democratic platform
much the best" responded Mr.. Pettigrew,
who is one of the silver senators who bolted
the st. Louis convention. THE new Eng
land senator does not seem able to stand on
any Platform" added Mr.. Pettigrew.
Mr.. Carter, republican of Montana sup
ported the bill. arguing that the policy OF
tho government was to make patriots rather
than profit out of the settlers of the far west.
The west, he said, raised no question as to
the vast sums spent for rivers and harbors
and for the navy which afforded them no
benefit. In the present case the issue was
whether these lands were to go to cattle
kings or the actual settlers.
No final action on the bill had been taken
when, at o'clock, the senate adjourned.

PRINCESS DE CHIMAY.
The princess talked with extraordinary
freedom to the correspondent. who went to
Hungary to see her and who has stopped In
the same hotel a week. He has lunched and
dined with her almost daily, and has visited
with her the gypsy hut in which dwell the
knfolks OF her lover. She sat for a photo
graph, and persuaded her new gypsy friends
to pose for the same purpose.
Besides debating the above address the
princess has written to the World corre-
spondent several autograph letters, including
one expressing regret that she could not
accept an invitation to meet Milan, formerly
king OF Servia, and a company of Hungarian
magnates at luncheon.
The Worlds correspondent In Buda -Pesth
is an American, but was educated wholly in
France and Germany. He knew the princess
in her earlier womanhood.
