A PRETTY TABLEAU
A Scene in Which inc Rough Riders
 Flag Was Conspicuous.

In all important newspaper offices the watchword is to first get the news and then get it in the paper without error. The Republican gives the news but itsis not always presented without some detail slighted, name spelled wrong, or perhaps left out entirely.
 The opening of the reception on Thursday night by the Woman's Re lief corps and the G. A. R. posts of the cii,y to the Rough Riders was prayer by Dr. Halsey, and a t2bleau in which Miss Mills, for the Woman's Relief corps, Mrs. Depew and Rough Rider Payne were the central figures, and the flag carried by the Rough Riders through Cuba was the main object Of interest. Standing between Mrs. De- pew and Miss Mills, Rough Rider tayne dressed in full uniform waved the historic flag amid a bursi, of enthu- siasm from the audience. Mrs. DepeW then sang America in clear and charming manner, and it was a fitting close to a most impressive scene. Mrs. Depew is an accomplished singer, pos SesSing a voice of magnificent strength and volume, but she never sang sweet CT CT more effec lively than on this oc- casion.
 Miss Mills. who presented the flag 10 the Rough Riders when they departed for the front on behalf of the Woman s Relief corps, recited the history of the flag from the time it left Phoenix until it's return a shor'. time ago. She paid a beautiful tribute to the Rough Riders. Addressing the Rough Riders present Miss Mills said: Words cannot ex- press what we think of ou. When we gave you this flag We did not think it would wave as the signal of the first invasion of Cuban soil; Cha, you would be the boys of the first flag, and the first boys in the field O. battle Yours was no empty boast; you won the principles for which you fought. and may our blessings be with you where ever you go. As we look upon the soiled and bullet-pierced folds Of the flag as it is returned to us we feel that we. too, took a small part in the great battle.''
 Miss Mills address was delivered with much feeling, and her words made deep impression upon all who heard them.

 The sermon delivered by Rev. s. L. Guthrie at the tabernacle last night was listened to by large audience. Many of those present had never heard MT. Guthrie talk before, and ex- pressed themselves as highly enter tained. The speaker traced the growth of religious thought and showed how the greet lovers of the liberty of the mind were transported across a sea which protected them af- ter they reached these shores. These were two things this nation had to be thankful for.

SIGNIFICANCE OF A PREFIX.
Won Before a Name Implies Nobil-
ity, but Van" Means Nothing.

1t is a common mistake of those who
speak only English to suppose that
the prefix wan before a Dutch name
signifies nobility. In the Glow coun-
tries"-that is, in the kingdoms OF
the Netherlands and of Belgium
wan" has no particular meaning.
Names with ivan" are to be read on
shops as we'll as on the doors of the
most aristocratic mansions. The
humblest persons have them as we'll
as the most exalted, and a great num-
Der of the very oldest families are
without it, But in Germany won
implies nobility, and all persons who
belong to the nobility prefix won" to
their family names without any ex-
ception. Persons who do not belong
to the nobility cannot have the right
to put won" before their names. A
man who is knighted for some reason,
however, has the same right to put
won" before his family name as a
person of ancient nobility. For in
stance, when Alexander Humboldt was
knighted he became Alexander Won
Humboldt. All his descendants, male
and female, take the prefx.-St. Louis

A WAY TO TREAT GARBAGE.

Cleveland is trying to treat the gar
bage question in an intelligent way,
and is greatly to be praised therefor.
Still it is merely in the infancy of the
question, and it could learn much if
it were to turn it's eyes in the direction
of Shoreditch in England where a new
system for the utilization Of such
waste has been in operation for
month or so. Yet short as the time
has been. the immense value OF the
method has already been successfully
shown. The system was established
by Lord Kelvin, an inventor OF the in
genuity Of our Edison, but with a far
greater basis OF sound knowledge; one
Of the greatest scientists, in fact, in
all the world. Last week I told of
system that was in operation near New
York, and l deem the matter of such
vital importance that I give up space
today to an account Of the English
method which is much superior.
The refuse matter Of that municipal
ity is collected and brought to a dust
destructor, where it is burned to pro-
duce steam, and this steam is utilized
to generate electricity. There are in
the apparatus twelve Instructor cells,
or furnaces, with a heating area Of
twenty-five square feet each, and six
| water-tube boilers at the side, each
with three hundred square feet OF
heating surface. The garbage is
brought to the works and placed in
| electric lifts, by which it is automatic
! ally raised to the tipping platform.
Here it is run along tracks until it
is above the furnaces, and then dump
ed in. Between fifty and sixty tons Of
refuse are thus consumed daily.
In order to secure perfect combus-
ton, forced draught is used, the air
being drawn by motor-driven fans
| from a neighboring sewer, thus venti-
| lating the sewer. The dust destruc-
ton continues day and night, twelve
men stocking in three shifts of eight
| hours each, and, as the greatest de-
mand for the electric light and power
is during the night, a system Of steam
storage has been inaugurated.
The steam is used to drive great
high-tension engine, producing eleven
hundred volts from each of three gen
orators, and there are besides three
low-tension >dynamos, each producing
one hundred and sixty-fve volts. The
electric-light station supplies the arc
lamps for lighting the streets until
midnight, when they are switched OH

COULDN'T FOOL THIS Girl,
Lover Who Tried to Pass OF Shoes
Worth $3.50 as a Sc Pair.

Inc modern young man may think he
is very smart, but the modern Girl is
a little smarter, as the following story
Will prove. young man resolved the
other day to present his beloved girl
with a nice pair of shoes. He accord
ingly procured her measure and pur-
chased $3.50 pair. In order to make
the present appear more valuable he
marked Sc upon the soles of the shoes
and at his request the shopman. who
was friend of his, put receipted bill
for IS into one of them. The pres
entation was made and the lovers were
happy, as lovers should be. But mark
the sequel: The girl examined the
shoes in the daylight and was not sat-
1shed. She was convinced that her
lover had been cheated in the purchase
of such pair of shoes at that price.
She decided to go and change the
shoes and obtain better bargain. The
rext day she appeared in the shop and
selected pair of shoes, price 81, and
politely requested the clerk to take
back the shoes for which she said her
husband had paid S. The receipted
bill was procured in proof and the boot
man found it impossible to go behind
the returns The smart girl took her
81 pair of shoes and obtained 50 in
money and went home happy and sat
isfied. The boot seller sent a bill for
81 to the young man, who promptly
paid the difference, but he thinks that
girl little too smart for him.
