A Young Chicago Married Couples
Walls Are Adorned with Lit
erary Patchwork.

A young married couple who recently
went to housekeeping on Clybourn ave-
nue. had just enough money to buy the
necessary furniture. They had not
sufficient cash to invest in notices and
pictures. The young wife is handy
with brush, but has considerable yet
to learn in books. She made an effort
to supply the deficiency in notices for
the wall by working at odd times on
plain cardboard with water colors.
Here are some of the mottoes that now
adorn the Clybourn avenue home:

Heavy and Rxhnusting Work of Laun-
dresses Caused by summer
Eashion.

This Is the season when the shirt
waist wearer comes forth in all her
glory and refreshes both herself and
the casual beholder continually by her
attractive display of nicely starched
and ironed linen. The girl who has
just attired herself in spick and span
shirt waist just fresh from the laundry
is as delightful to the eye and the
senses of her fellows as is the spotless
shirt waist to its gratifed wearer. But
to the girls who iron those waists
we'll, that, to use Kiplingism, is an
other story.
One hundred, 10, 100 and even high
er now and then the thermometers in
the big laundries often register. And
in this heat shirt waist girls-not wear
eSs, but ironers-stand and toll all day
long. Many, many hours of hard and
exhausting labor daily is necessary in
order that the other shirt waist wom-
en-, the wearers, may do themselves
proud" in the ubiquitous garment
which has proved itself such a good
friend to womankind. Nor does the
work of ironing shirt waists belong
to the order of that which may be
performed hastily, with Il minimum of
care and labor. No, indeed! Every
woman who wears shirt waist wants
it perfectly ironed, naturally enough.
and that means work. Very few wom-
en- have sufficient shirt waists in ordi-
nary use to allow the pretty ''blouses"
sent to the laundry one week to be
returned the next. AS rule two or, at
most, three days is all that can be al
lowed for their laundering. And that
means work also-overwork, overtime,
but, alasl not overpay, as general
thing, for the shirt waist ironers.
Doctors and hospital nurses tell grew
some stories occasionally of dread dis
eases brought on and young lives sac
rificed by the perpetual standing on
one foot and the heavy machine work
performed in many laundries. The girl
who stands on one foot all day long,
year in and year out, pressing down
the heavy treadle of an ironing ma
chine with the other, until she grows
too sick to work longer and goes to
the nearest free hospital or lapses into
semi-invalidism at home, has no love
for shirt waists as rule. For much
of this exhausting and difficult labor
is carried on in behalf of the shirt waists
which most other women love, and,
lest the non-shirtwaist-wearing half
of Chicago humanity grow unduly
puffed up, let it be said that the deli
cate and fragile negligee and outing
shirt. so favored of mankind for some
time past are very nearly, if not quite,
as bad as the shirt waists. While as to
''rush" orders-well, there wouldn't
be SO many of them, perhaps, and the
average man and woman would order
few more shirts or shirt waists, even
if little pinch had to be felt some-
where else, if only they realized all of
the torture and strain, and all for very
low wages, which must be undergone
by some one every time they make en-
phatic demands for their laundry bun
die TO be returned ''just as quickly as
possible. Chicago Chronicle.

with a large cheese in his possession
and that 1t doubtless was the one which
belonged to Schmucker. The men were

that one of the fellows had settled with
Schmucker for the cheese and that they
had ben released and the charge against
them withdrawn.

New York, Dec. 26.-The eighth an

between Columbia, Harvard, Yale and
Princeton, will take place here, the
scene Of the contest being Columbia s
grammar school. The games will oc-
cupy holiday week the hours of play
being from two to six and to 10 p. m.
The Representatives of the universities
will be: Columbia, Kaufman G. Falk,

stitutes, H. A. Boehm, 1900, s.; r. f.

ule of play is arranged so that every
representative plays once with every
player from the other contesting uni
versities, making six games for each
contestant and total score of twelve
games for each college. 1t is conceded
that the tournament will be more even
than any of recent years. In the semi
annual tournaments played Columbia
won the first two and Harvard the last
five. To retain the intercollegiate
trophy college must win it ten times
in succession. The tournament this
year also has interest for the reason
that the players in the cable match
with oxford and Cambridge next April
will be selected from the men making
the best scores. The officers of the
tournament will be the same as last year

that he is a fit subject for congressional

suaded that he is. 1t seems eminently
proper that Stark county should have

something onto so modest a county.
Besides having the president, secretary
of state, supreme court justice, consuls
and charge d'affairs without number,
timber and government land inspectors,

clerks and government employees in al
most all branches of the government
service, it is but fitting that con-
gresham should come from there, too

ing-and Stark county says he must
have it, and he can leave the arduous
duty as trustee of Mt. Union college
for a season, why let's boom Silas fol
the place. But say? Where is Mahon-

with the man we've got that you want

Williams is a good man and an able one
but Stark don't want the earth, does

WERE CELEBRATING
And the Officers Thought They
Were Too Noisy and
Arrested Them.

On Sunday night the officers patroll-
ing the heats along the Pennsylvania
railway track at the intersections of
South Cherry street, heard con-
siderable noise emanating from the
throats of some men who were appa-
rently coming down the track from the
east. 1t seemed to the officers as
though fight was in progress, and they
hurried to the point whence came the
yelling. A crowd of boys who had been
out for a good time had gathered and
were proceeding along the track at the
old Spring shop, when the officers caught
up with them. When the fellows saw
the officers coming they ran and scat
tered. Five of them were apprehended
and taken to the police station and
charged with disturbing the peace.
They put up for their appearance and
were given hearing Monday. at which
time they pleaded not guilty. They told
the mayor they had not been with the
