ications with brick as called for, sub
stituted for the stone corner quoins and

In case, corner quoins and the narrowest
part only of all the outside fiat and round

Charles w. Fiske put in a bid for the
carpenter work for the sum of $2,973, but
1t was rejected on the motion of Com
missioner Mills, who said 1t did not COM
no bids for steam heating received, and
the Board will more than likely advertise
very soon for proposals.
During the past two weeks two hun-
bred and twenty permits were given out
by the clerk upon the order of the Com
mittee on Combustibles. The clerk was
directed to ask the Board of Finance for
$S24.16, the balance of the appropriation

WILLIAM ". EATON.

How soon we are forgotten Who that knew William w. Eaton in the days of his power and glory as one of the most influential Democrats and
 public men in his State and the nation realized then that he would soon drop so completely out of public life and public notice as he did? He seemed then to be a great and lasting force, but now it is only the old timers who can remember the impression he made, and they have to make an effort to remember. MT. Eaton was strong man, a sincere man and a thoroughly honest man. He was much trusted by his fellow citizens and he did his best for them according to his lights As events have proved, he was totally wrong in some of his political ideas, but he was very earnest and enthusiastic in the advocacy of them. His honesty won the respect of even his opponents. It is remembered of him that Roscoe Conkling was one of his firmest friends in the United States senate and much appreciated his worth. He was con- spicuous as an old-fashioned unswerv- ing Democrat, and it is a sufficient tribute to say of him that his honesty was as unswerving as his Democracy.

made @ acquisition for four pounds, two of white and two of blue, the whole of the value of about eight cents. This requisitlon was signed in due time by the Colonel of the regiment, by the Brigade Quartermaster, by the Brigade Commander by the Division Quarter master and by the Division commando CT. That brought it to the Chief Guar termaster's office, and there it was halted for deliberation as to whether the Twelfth Minnesota really needed so much chalk, and the amount was re- duced one-half. With nearly as many signatures as there are on the Declara- tion of Independence the mutilated requisition for four cents worth of chalk went back through the channels by which it went forward, and Quar- termaster Lind, by sending man three miles to wait half day at the Quar- termaster's depot, got his little bundle of chalk .". ..
 This was good work, It is quite evil dent that Quartermaster Lind didn't need four pounds of chalk to mark with.

THE REMAINS,

The Democratic mountain at Bridge port labored nightly yesterday and there was a ridiculous muss. It is fair to say, however, that "Jeffersonian bi- metallism" is better than the Chicago silver lunacy and Daniel N. Morgan is a pretty good man to offer as a sacri- fee. The arraignments, the demands and the call-attentions of the platform sound fierce and must have given con- siderable savage joy to those who in vented them.
 There is now an opportunity to decide which are the remains to look at, and every Connecticut man who aches to be a Democrat will have a serious job in trying to discover whether he is ss or $.

ARTIFICIAL EGGS.

A few years ago the world was
 startled by the news that an egg fac
 tory had been built in New Jersey
 whose product was to be fully equal to
 anything that hens had done or could
 do. Great and general interest was felt
 in the new and promising business but
 strange to say, nothing more was ever said about it. Perhaps it was found to
 be the best plan to sell the goods as
 genuine hens eggs and conceal all the
 facts about the making of them. Now
 there is a new scheme which promises
 competition with the humble but indus
 trious hen, and open competition too
 It originated in Belvidere, Illinois and
 F. A. Bowers appears to be the origin
 ator. At the Boone county fair a cake
 in which artificial eggs were used took
 all the prizes. MT Bowers called on a
 Chicago chef and invited him to go to
 Belvidere to investigate. The chef tasted some Of the cakes made from the egg and declared that revolution in baking had been inaugurated. The artificial egg in it's present state con- sists of a yellow powder, which an-
 swers for the entire egg ill the prepa- ration of such toothsome dainties as pound cake, while a white powder, freed from fatty substances, is an exact substitute for the egg albumen in the
 making of angel food and meringue for the top of the custard and lemon pies.
 It is claimed that for every baking pur- pose the artificial egg is as good as the hen product and that it can be put on | the market much cheaper than eggs. The new egg is made, according to the best information, from pure milk by a 1 process of cooking, baking down to a brown mass and pulverizing The omission of cream and different man. l ipulation is declared to be responsible for the artificial albumen.
 | Perhaps eggs will not always be twenty-five or thirty cents a dozen.

GOOD WORK.

Those who have felt that there was loose and extravagant management by the government during the late war are respectfully invited to consider the ex- perience of John Lind, quartermaster of the Twelfth Minnesota. Quarter master Lind wanted some chalk. When his regiment was awaiting orders at Chickamauga to go to Porto Rico gen. eral orders were received that when regiments travelled on cars, should two different regiments come together in
 one car, that is, if part of Wisconsin regiment and part of Minnesota reg iment should occupy the same car, it should be the duty of the senior officer in command of the attachments in the car to have the line of demarcation be-
 tween the commands marked on the car floor with white chalk, so that Min nesota and Wisconsin might know their true boundary. Then the steps of the car were to be marked with blue chalk, showing to which command those steps belonged. In view of such pos sible need of chalk Quartermaster Lind

sgners are striving to catch the exclu- sive sets with brown, the gown shown to-day is illustrative. It was brown cashmere trimmed very freely on both bodice and skirt with bands of white silk almost covered with braiding in a lighter shade of brown Though the color of the dress stuff was not new the combination with white and a lighter brown was not to be mistaken by anyone as hand-over.
 The only new thing appearing in gloves is a revival of the directoire These are very large and loose, with un- cut wrists. Their bagginess empha- sizes the slenderness of the hand with Tn. They come in all the dark feathers the kid used is so heavy it seems right to speak of it as leather-and also in undressed kids in the lighter shades and white. They are to be worn with calling and street costumes, but as vet women will be shy about using them for dress occasions. The woman who gave much attention to her hands has set this fashion. Her nails are rosy from health and friction. The skin of the fingers Is transparent white, and lit tie blue veins show on the inside. These fingers are daintily ringed, not laden with costly jewels, and such hands are supposed to slip in and out of the big soft gloves without the least squeezing. The gloves are to protect the hands, not to make them presentable Only at suggestion of exposure to temperature or soling do the gloves go on, as in the carriage on the. street, during the walk. As soon as the goal is reached the gloves are slipped off. This idea is better than torturing ones hands into tigh: kids.

 Brown is in revival, and the surpris- ing thing about it is that practically no new shades of it are put forward. Can 1t be that dyers have exhausted the possible supply of new shades, and so are compelled to turn to familiar ones However that may be, browns are now attractive because employed by the best dressmakers. How long they will please advanced dressers who usually want something strikingly new as well as stylish is a matter of uncertainty, but the run of women should be pleas ed.

The hand-organ question is up in Verviers, Belgium. The commissioner of police has been empowered to grant licenses, but must first listen to the whole of the repertoires and satisfy himself that the machines are suffi- ciently in tune for popular purposes. At first he was disposed to be good- natured and gave it to be understood that he would pass almost any instru- ment which did not contain too many tunes. But now he has had such sur felt of music, sometimes spending the whole morning and the greater part of the afternoon doing nothing but listen to piano-organs, that he has become extremely fastidious, and, at the pres- ent rate, it seems likely that there will soon be no more street music at Yer viers. Some of the disfranchised or ganists however, are averaging them selves by returning to the police station every morning and demanding that the commissioner shall listen to the whole of their repertory over again, on the pretext that they have remedied the defects of their instruments of torture during the previous four-and-twenty hours.
