Furnishing the Hom-.

There Is no idea more wantonly erroneous
than that 1t requires liberal expenditure
Of money to have comfortable and artistic
home writes Edward W. Box In tho April
Ladies' Home Journal. The very essence of
elegance lies in simplicity. 1t Is not art 10 make
parlor the duplicate Of an exhibition room
in furniture store. That simply calls for an
outlay Of money and failure to exercise
taste. There Is no tone TO such . room no
air Of reposc, no comfort. no individuality.
1t speaks for what II Is; an exhibition. True
art in furnishing Is found In allowing home
to slowly develop under the tastes OF those
who live in it-the adoption Of m idea hsre, an
other there. The development Of tastes requires
time and cultivation. No house worth living
in can be- complete at one time. A home Of
comfort unfolds itself so to speak, and unfolds
slowly. True Improvement comes in this
wav. and only in this way. Young married
people cannot bear this fact in mind too
strongly when furnishing their homes

HFFEcrs OF KLoNDIKH FEVER.
A Drain Upon California's Supply of
Dogs, Beans and Coal.

The rush to the Klondiks has ALREADY
begun, and the excitement IL growing
greater with every departure OF steam
ship. All over the state there Is q great
call for big dogs suitable for sled hau ling
In Alaska. Tho pound master Of san
Francisco says that all such animals are
snapped up as soon as they are brought
iuto the pound. and that he could easily
sell 20 dogs Of any large, long haired breed
every day for 81 piece. 1t used to te the
custom to shanghai men for service at
sea, but since the Klondiks boom set In
1t Is dogs tnat are sha nghisd.
In San Francisco, and In all the cities
of the state, as well a. In the country
districts. there has besn loud complaint
for the last month from the owners of
valuable dogs. High-priced dogs have
been stolen aud hidden In out-of-ths-
way places, where they could be trained
for the work that Will be required OF
them. In the country districts there are
many training stations where long
strings Of dogs can be son drawing slsds
and small wagons.

toned to send 20 the sacred Goldfish are
iIkoly to 90 TO Alaska this year. A
shortage OF coal Is threatened also on 90
count of the Kiondike boom. The
bunksrs of the wholesale dealers are
about empty, and II is sstin ated that all
the coal that can rescn this city from
foreign and eastern mines during the

tons while the normal consumption OF

An Appropriate Death.

W. c. Brnnn, OF Waco, Texas, met an ap-
propriate end on April 2. as the result Of n
meeting with Captain M. T. Davis. Both
gentlenien used pistols. and Captain Dave
was wounded, perhaps fatally. Brann was a
remarkably character. He was born In Ken
lucky about thii ty-nve years ago, was edu-
Gated for preacher. and enteredl the Bap-
tist ministry, where the boldnoss o. his at
tack on accepted ideas soon made him con-
spicnous he was too progressive, however,
for his ministerial brethren, and was expelled
from the Baptist Church. Then he turned
newspaper man, practicing that profession
first in Kansas, ana later In Texas. After
feeling the pulse Of the public at Houston, he
went to San Antonio and there started the
Iconoclast. but tho vigor Of his structures on
men and matters there presently caused him TO
be mobbcd. and then he moved TO Waco.
There he followed the same methods, but
with better success. and was able to enlist
popular sentiment on his side. His death
was consequences of a series OF attacks
which he made on the faculty of the Baptist
university at Waco. For this he was set upon
and beaten last October by students Of the
university: but he continued to give offence.
and was presently again assaulted and beaten
by one Of the trustees, assisted by two stu
dents That led to ngnt with pistols be-
tween Brann's friend, Judge Gerald of Waco.
and W. A, Harris editor of a Waco paper.
Harris xas killed. Gerald dangerously
wounded Brann went right on exyressing
his views with eotiro candor, until. as stated,
Captain Davis intervened. and pacifcation
has followed.
Brann was n very vigorous writer with
much humor, snd was, rs may be conjec
tured. thoroughly earnest in what he under
took. 1t is told to his credits that he was
kind. brave and sincere. loved his friends,
hated his foes, and fought for the side he be-
lieved to be right. The trouble was that his
discernment OF right and wrong was not
clear. Judging from the attractions that New
York seems to have for successful journalists
Of San Francisco st. Louis, and other wes
tern cities. 1t does not seem unlikely that
IL Brann's usefulness bad been protracted
for another decade he wouli have used up
all likely subjects OF offence In Waco, and
moved into this klondike of Occidental edi-
tors. There are so many. many things and
creatures here that are nt to engage the at
tention of such person. II Is too late row,
but one siQhs to think Of what might have
been II Brann had not dalliei too long in
Texas-of the yachts lie might have sailed,
the funds he might have started, and the
delegations of Congressman that he might
have sent here and there to do mis- errands.
But perhaps SO much success rs that Is only
possible to impulsivsness when 1t is heavily
backed by capital. -Harper's Weekly.

THE sfrUlrz0N IN CONGRESS.
The vote on the Senate resolution was
somewhat Of surprise, bscause the ma
jority In favor OF the recognition Of the
republic OF Cuba az . preliminary to In
tesvsntion was larger by ten or . dozen
votes than bad been looked for. This
majority iust,fies the Senate In making .
stronger fight against the attitude gf the
Houso than had been expected. In a
word, the situation in congrvss is pretty
seriously snaried up at this hour.
How far the tremendous majority that
passed the House resolution demanding
Intervention, but not reoogniticn. can be
maintained as against the latter proposi-
tion when tnat Is presented to this House
for direct vote without any complica-
tions rs 1t will be In the call for concur
renee on the Senate measure IL would be
hard to Judge. for there is sentiment in
the House strongly In favor OF recosni-
tion, which, however, voted tor the
House resolution because 1t did not de-
sire to refuse what could be got although
1t could not get all 1t wanted.
AT the same time, 1t Is still to be ex-
peoted that the bill finally adopted In
coneurrencc will not include recosni-
tion. The President is known to be
against 1t. Tbs House has already,
though, to be sure. In a negative way.
declared against IL. The country at large
is divided on the question, but today is
probably strongly against IL, as 1t has
only served to embarrass the situation
and delay action. The people. whatever
their sympatnies, regard recognition In
the present conditions as a detail that
would better not have been introduced ct
this time since 1t has only created quar-
rel. 10 secure 10 would doubtless might
lily please the Cuban junta, 5ut the
American psopie have no sympathy with
any ambitions or aspirations that that
body may have. except In the broadcast
and most general spirit of their laburs.
There are, fortunately. other points of
difference bstween the resolution passed
by the House and voted down by the SEN
ate, and the resolution passed by the
Senate that II undoubtedly to be voted
down by the House. and these afford
ample opportunity to demand and to
m AXE mutual concessions after decision
IL reached on the chief bone Of oonten-
tion--ths recognition CLAUSE. While.
with the exception Of the recognition fsa-
turs, both resolutions apparently ssek the
same. object In much the same way, the
Senate has placed Its purposes and the
reasons therefor In an altogether stronger
light than has the House, and the differ
ences suggest plenty Of ground for con
troversy. But We take 1t. that unless
the confsrsss on the part Of the Senate
receds from their position In the matter
of recognition. the oonferees on the part
OF the House will practically decline to
negotiate, and In view Of the tremendous
lsajority--a practically unanimous vote
