THE scHooL-ALToGETHER IT
WAS A NOTABLE EVENT.
One OF the notable events of Thanks
Swing Day in Wheeling was the flag
presentation to the pupils of the Cathe-
drai High School by the Blessed vtr-
gin sodallty, composed OF young ladies
of the parish, The ceremonies were
preceded by e %pretenious street dem
onstration, which was participated in
by the several local Catholic organiza-
lions, who made a brilliant showing.
The parade formed at the st. Alphon-
sus church, on the South Side, and NOV
ed over a route in the business part OF
the city, winding up on Fourteenth
street, in front of the high school build
ing, The parade moved in the follow
ing order:
Chief Marshal and staff
Opera House Band.
Cathedral Cadets.
Knights OF ST. George.
Parke and Mullen Divisions, A. o, II.
ST. Stanislaus Society.
Knights of st. John.
Members of Order not in Uniform.
After a patriotic selection by the OPP
era House band, the ceremonies began,
the speakers addressing the assembled
thousands from a neatly arranged and
artistically decorated stand, in which
the red, white and blue predominated.
MR.. HUBBARD SPEAKS.
The first speaker of the occasion was
Hon. ". p. Hubbard, whose address
was most eloquent and received eener-
applause from the audience. The
love of country, said Mr.. Hubbard, Is a
natural instinct In man, and is strong
as the love of home and family. Love
OF country is seen In every land on
earth; 1t flourlshes beneath palm and
pine, DER mountain and plains aud by
the sea-for 1t no climate Is too incle-
ment, no hardship too rigorous-no
where and in no country does II wlther
and die. But In ones country love OF
| country Is more than a natural instinct,
there It has n definition with the ideal
meanlng-and that country Ia America,
No time or occasion Is more fit for
showing this love OF our country than
this day OF Thanksgiving.
In every age n people has stood for
the highest hopes OF humanity. For
such a people there is one central idea.
With the Greclans 1t was love or
beauty, with the Romans law stood
pre-eminent-with Americans civil lib
erty. (Cheers.)
To this country has been assigned by
common consent the post of leadership
among the nations. To no other coun-
try do the peoples of every other ma
ton come to make their homes. In this
| country Of ours the central thought Is
| civil liberty, but Is there a sufficient
| appreciation of this glorious privilege?
| No generation understands Its OWL i'm
portance In history and this is partlcu-
larry true of our country and genera
ton. The speaker then referred to the
Sn.otion ~ so sbort N limo ~ The
greatest structure civilization offers.

WASTING ELECTRICITY.
How II Is Done by the MOtormen on
Cars.

Carelessncss on the part of the motor
man is, according to recent investiga-
tons, the cause of a great waste of
electrical force. This occurs at the
starting and stopping. Sometimes the
power is left on until after the brakes
are set, at other times there are merely
partial currents, but quite enough to
foot up a considerable aggregate. In
fact, it is estimated that as much as
20 per cent. of power may be lost in
this way. So noticeable has this be-
come that it has been found advisable
to adopt a very simple device by means
of which the lost current is, at least
approximately, measured, and the
amount thereof can be charged up
against the unskillful or careless motor
man. This device consists of strip of
alloy placed in box prepared to re-
ceive It. The alloy is held against the
wire by weight attached to the lower
end of the strip. 1t is supported by u
short piece of German silver wire of
sGch cross section as to be heated by
the current which flows through it to
operate the car. At a certain tempera-
ture the wire melts it's way through The
strip of alloy, thus allowing the strip
and weight to descend. There is an au-
tomato device to prevent injury to the
recorder or the stOppage of the car in
case the wire should melt under an alb
normal current. The recorder is pushed
into place, at the same moment clos
ing the car circuit. To insure its use
the arrangement is such that unless
the recorder is in place the circuit is
open, and the ear will not start. A rec
ord is kept of the number of miles each
man runs, and the number of inches of
alloy melted during the run. This is
returned at the end of a month and is
posted up over against the mans name
1t has been estimated that a consider
able saving is effected by this MEANS

rately are ruches of snowy tulle, with
which are made neck trimmings lighter
and softer and more fluffy than half
boas of ostrich feathers. But they are
more fragile.
The tulle of which they are composed
is in all colors-black, white, silver
gray, mauve, pink, claret cOlored, China
pink and Nile green, in every case pow
dered with white; but the shades best
suited to the complexion are white,
pale gray, or black powdered with
white.
There are two ways of making up
these ruches; sometimes they are made
with coques, fixed Alpon No. IL or %

are fastened together with very fine
silk so as to form a sort of tuyau,
through which is passed a round pip

about 40 centimeters in length; then
with a silk to match the tulle the psIffs
are attached every one or two cent?
meters apart, forming rosettes of five
to ten centimcterS, according as the
ruche is required smaller or larger.
Sometimes they are made slightly deep

the ruche fuller.

field, H., stood for many years plain
board fence. Before it finally disap-
peared to make way for park" inn
provements it had been rebuilt at least
twice. At each rebuilding, however,
particular care was taken to leave a
certain top board" in exactly the po-
sition it had occupied before, not even
a new nail hole being made in it.
\ stranger, noticing one day this
popularity in the fence. asked an old
citizen, who was leaning against a
Iocust-tree and whiting a stick, if
there was any explanation.
Did the county run out of money"
he inquired, when it had got this fence
all finished except one board?"
NO, sir" replied the old citizen, put
ting his jackknife in his pocket, walk
ing to the fence. and laying his hand on
it in most impressive manner. This
top board is wuth more'n all the rest
of the fence put together, old and rotted
as it is.

At one OF the duke of Hamilton din

hand Of the duchess. AT the close of the
first course a servant brought round u
plate on which were a dozen little
square pieces of toast, with a delicate
morsel, apparently of meat, upon eaci',
which he ELECTED from the duchess to
consist of the inside of Il woodcock, and
considered a great delicacy. Uncon-
sciouS that the plate was to go round.
he took it from the hands of the serv
ant, placed it before him, and deliber-
ately ate up the whole of it, saying that
he found it excellent; but he ascer-
tanned that the delicate meat upon the,
toast was not termed in polite circles
the stomach" but was called the
trail" Whether that particular dish
or any other disagreed with his sliges-
ton, l know not, but ii happened that
the same night, a little before midnight,
the duke heard the footsteps of his
guest walking up and down in the pas
sage adjoining the rooms in which they
both slept The duke lit a candle,
opened his door, and went up to his
guest. and inquired whether he was suf-
fering any pain, and the latter replied:
Yes, l have got a very bad pain in my
