ABOUT THE HOUSE.

The candClabrum is to the fore as a
dinner decoration. The lights, soft
cned by co!ored shades, enhance the
beauty of the shining silver and glitter
ing glass.
For tired feet put a handful of com
mon salt into four quarts Of hot wa
ter. Place the feet into the water while
it is hot as it can be borne Then rub
the feet dry with a rough towel.
An cid housekecpr says the cleanest
and best d.ghwasher is round whisk
broom made of the finest and best
broomcorn. 1t is cleaned readily by
holding under the spigot and running
hot water through it; after which hang
ii in The air TO be dried. This does away
with the annoyance of u discolored and
often musty dishcloth.
One Of the best disinfcctants in the
eickToom is basin of fresh water. Wa
ter is Il great absorbent of noXious
gases. Water that has stood open in
the bedroom soon gathers impurities
and is unfit to drink. A wide-mouthed
vessel Of pure water will often do more
to bring refreshing sleep to u ncr-
vous patient than will an opiate. This
is not theory, but experience.
An unusual and new dinner table dec
GRAFTON that seems to be received with
much favor, particularly where the
table is large, is as follows: Over a
white damask tablecloth is arranged n
latticcwork OF leaves, leaving a mar
gin wide enough for the plates, glasses
and table furnishings. Here ANA there
in this latticework are stuck flowers.
One blossom, and possibly two kinds Of
blossoms, may be used in this dcoora-
ton.

The LITERARY WORLD.

When Walter Scott was a very small
child he clapped his hands and cried
"Bonnie" to the. thunderstorm. When
he was dying, he took pleasure in the
ripple of the Tweed over its pebbles.
Carlyle called the world "a squeezed
orange" SO it was to him, poor dy&-
peptic and pessimist! But it need not
be, to anyone with normal views of
life, and a healthy physical and mem
tai digestive system.
Anthony Hopes very successful
novel, "Phrcso," is to be dramatized by
Edward Rose and II. V. Esmond; and
it is rumored that Charles Frohman
has already acquired an interest in the
prospective play.
Lowell wrote this to Hawt wthorne in
1860: Don't print too much and too
soon. Don't get married in a hurry.
Read what will make you think, not
dream Hold yourself dear, and more
power of your elbow. God bless
you!"
Shelley was at times subject to
strange Authorizations. He imagined
that he was getting elephantiasis-
that assassins were lying in wait for
him--that strange faces were pressed
against the windows, staring at him,
etc.
Boswell, dining one day with DR..
johnson, asked him if he did not think
that a good cook was more essential
to the community than a good poet.
"ldon'tsuppose," said the doctor, that
there's dog in town but that thinks
So"
A customer, inquiring at booksell-
er's for THE Lady of the Aroostook," y"
was told by the clerk, after some de-
lay and consultation with another
clerk: "We haven't got The Lady or
the Rooster but we can give you The
Lady or the Tiger"
Marie Corelli, unlike many other
prolific writers, does not repeat her
self. According to one of her readers,
she furnishes Eat least one brill to
every three pages" hence her works
are somewhat summed by the mother
OF the young person"

a CATASTROPHE AVERTEO.
The Clerk Was just About to Call n
Policeman.

They were two daintily dressed, chic
girls. and they were evidently out for
a giddy afternoon, says the New York
Telegram. They stroIled down Broad
way into Herald square with the gay
est of smiles ON their faces and the
sauciest of looks in their dancing eyes.
They stopped at drug store in which
mammoth frosty soda fountain
stands i'm all its glittering temptation,
and soon became engrossed in two de-
licious, creamy, frothy mixtures.
They chatted as they drank and slow
ly ate the ice cream with the long-dis-
tancc spoons with which each alluring
glass is provided
AT last the ice cream soda was
finished, and the girls went laughing
out into the street, when suddenly a
look of CONSERVATION oyerspoad the
face of one of them, and she exclaimed:
"Oh, Kitty"
Then she rushed back into the drug
store, and laying holdof the edge Of the
counter, began to pull! it.
The other followed in amazcment.
The soda water manipulation and the
drug clerks regarded the tugging young
woman with aStonishment, then fear.
Still she pulled at the counter till it ap-
pearCd to be in imminent danger of
coming loose.
At length, when the proprietor was
thinking seriously Of calling in po-
liceman, something gave way and the
young woman fell back with an excia-
n1ation Of relief and popped something
into her mouth.
Nell, whatever is the matter with
you?' asked her companion.
Nothing answered the other, in
nocently. 81 nearly forgot my chewing
gum"

kINSMEN IN THE SENATE.
White, of California, and Mallory, o.
FIOridn, First Cousins.


If one man Of family gets to be SEN
ator he ought to be accounted fortunate.
When two men of n family find seats
in the senate together it is a remarkable
event, and deserves recording, says the
Washington Post.
Stephen Mallory White is a senator
from California and Stephen Russell
Mallory is senator from Florida.
There is more than mere coincidence
in the similarity Of the names. The
men are cousins. Senator Mallory's
father and Senator Whites mother
were brother and sister Ii is little
curious that the two senator's should
represent states as far apart as it is pos
sible for them to be-onc On the Allan
tic and the other on the Pacific coast.
The grandfather Of the two senator's
was one of the earliest settlers cf Flor
ida, while their grandmother was a
Spanish woman Of fine stock, consider
able beauty and remarkable ccnstitu-
ton, retaining 10 her cd age all Of her
faculties. Much Of Senator Whites
sturdiness comes from his grand
mother. He was not born in Florida,
for his father and mother crossed the
plains in 1850, attracted to California
by The reports Of newly undiscovered gold
The senator was born in San Francisco
in 1853. The Mallorys, on the other
hand, remained in Florida, and now the
whirligig of time and The strange hap
penings of politics reunite the familes
in the senate.

"Compressing air until it will remain

it in such a form, it will remain there
for some time in the open air: that is,

There will be no further delay in get.

The following correspondence explains
the formal transfer of the old White

road, Of which Mr.. c. b. Eddy is the
president:
"To B. f. Daibyshire Ell Paso: De
tails OF the sale Of the White Oaks road

The prope ty which is here turned
over TO MIR. Eddy is ten miles of the
original Wbito Oaks track which Cap.
tain ChHs. Davis, as receiver, and acting
undor an order from the court, sold to
Jay Gould, in 1892, for $4,000. 1t was
understood at the time that Mr.. Could
purchased the property for the Texas g.
Pacific, which company would build the
! road on to White Oaks. But it seems
that the property WAS never transferred
to the L. & p. but was transferred to
the Gould helre, eurly III 1888. to Mr.
Sattcrice, and the road was named the
| El Paso Northern. L. S. Thorue, gen
eral manager Of the T. e. p, was made
| president Of the road and Il. +. Darby
shire, secretary. This accounts for those
gentlemen signing themselves as pres
ideut and secretary in Transferring the
property to Mr. Eddy, who closed deal
for it last September and paid down the
cash fnr The ten miles of road.
Yesterday the T. & p. people cleared
the White Oaks track of all their rolling
stock. President Eddy, of the I'll Paso

of steel on the line for the new road
Mr.. Eddy has leased two engines from

placed an order iu the east for six new

REMEMEERED HER CHILDREN.
EiOped Fifty Years Ago, But Wiilcd
Property to Her OEspring

EiOped Fifty Years Ago, But Wlilcd
Property to Her Offspring.
During the gold excitement of 40 a
young Irishman named Thomas Hogan
settled in Calayeras county, Cal, with
his wife. lie became a miner and
amasscd considerable property before
he died. His widow afterward married
John c. Scribncr, of San Audrcas. lie
died a few years ago, says the New
York World, and left his property to
his widow. The twice-widowed woman
thus came into the possession Of about
100000. She died few months ago
and left the bulk of her property to
her "nieces and nephews" in Ireland,
naming two men and two women.
The lawyer appointed to administer
on the estate wrote to the addresses
given, and learned that two of the four
were dead, and the remaining two had
no knowledge of an aunt in California
or any other place. An investigation
developed the fact that the supposed
Mrs. Hogan was really Mrs. Richard
Barnes, and that she had left her hus-
band and four children TO elope with
the young lrishman. She had kept the
skeleton in her closet hidden for nearly
80 years, and even in death she tried to
protect the secret by referring to her
children as her nieces and nephcws.

"A Land That Has Riany Good Mill
tnry hands.
One does not have 20 travel far or
stay long in Mexico TO discover that it
is quite as much a musical country a3
any other in the world, says Lippin-
oott's. Even tho stay-at~home Ameri-
cans dozen or so years ago fancied
that they had made this discovery
when Mexican military bands and typi-
cal orchestras began to tour the
United States, astonishing as well as
delighting the crowds they attracted
everywhere. But the truth is, the
American stay-at-homes, with all their
admiration for the music the Mexicans
brought to them, gained scarcely any
idea of how far the MeNicans were to be
cassed rs a musical people. They sup
posed, very naturally, that the famous
--th regimclt band and the typical or
ehestra comprised all, or about all, that
Mexico had to send abroad; that they
fully represented the music Of their
country; and that they were probably
considered prodigics In the land whence
they came. Such Impressions are
quickly dispolled in Mexico.
The eemi-weekly concerts in the 10
ealo, the Alameda and the Pascs. in the
capital, do not suffer In the least when
the Mexican war department grants
one of the military bands, even the
best Of them, leave Of absence for a
tour in the United StnteS And nc for
the other cities Of thc republic. even
such comparatively isolated towns as
,IaInpa, Pueba, Oaxacn, Tomca, Chi
huahua, Morelin and Guadalaiara. each
has ut least Que military band that
would be likely to carry Off the honors
in any competition with the military
bands OF America.

HOW TO FIND OUT

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twentyfoul
hours: a sediment or settling indi-
Gates an unhealthy condition of the

PlTH AND POINT.

We sometimes think that people do
not die OF old age; they worry them
selves to death
You are an exceptional person if you
ION t give to new friends and try to
eell to old friends.
Every one agrees. in speaking OF
some one else, that it beats all how
some people spend money.
You cant do anything with some
men unless You scare them. They have
no regard for patriotism or duty.
There is such a thing as an aggravat,
ed wrong Have III enemy so stupid
that he doesn t know it when you get
wen with him.
When you find a man who is very
liberal minded about a certain thing.
you will find 1t is because he is not per
sonally interested.
1t Is an awfully short time between
the day when u boy worries because he
didn t eat more at the party the night
before. and as an old man he worries
because he ate too much. -Atchiso,.
