RUFFLED HER VANITY.
Humiliation of Pretty Girl Who Wore
Her 'Kerchief Under Her Hat

her herGnleI lIQuer her Hat.
There was a girl on Lexington street
| yesterday who was pretty and well
dressed, and all that a girl should be,
but, nevertheless, she suffered much
| bitterness of spirit for a few moments,
and all because of a handkerchief--an
iniinitesimaI bit of linen and lace. You
see, this handkerchief wasn't in her
sleeve or her purse or wherever the
proper place for wo-nan's handker-
chief is, but was on top of her head
engaged in the herculean task of keep
ing her hat from sinking too low on
her brow and rendering her unbeauti-
full.
While that is hardly the usual func-
ton of a mouchoir. all would have been
well if this depraved inanimatc thing
hadn't chosen to allow one of its ends
to stray from beneath the confines of
the hat and mingle with the chestnut
tresscs of the maid. OF course, p1o-
pie looked at that end.
Dear met said the girl to her com
panion, don't people stare oddly" for
a pretty girl is never auEered by any
amount of this sort of attention.
We do seem to be attracting a good
deal of notice." replied her compau-
ion, unblushingly try ing to claim some
of the looks for herself
Directly, however, as they paused at
a window, they looked each other
squarely in the face.
'Well!" gasped the companion, I
don't wonder people stared Nellie. ].

WANT CENSUS PLUM
Republicans Think It's Ripe For
Picking.
OGDEN MAN IN THE FIELD
B. F. THOMAS ENDORSED BY
WEBER COMMITTEE.
He Trains With the Arthur Thomas
Lannan- Whittemore Crowd, But
So Does A. S. Geddes, Who Also
Wants the Contemporaries May
Be Effected Between the Two.

An interesting scramble for a juicy
plum that is just ripening in your Uncle
Samuel's orchard is promised before
very long. Already the boys are stand
ing out in the big road looking over
the fence with a suspicion OF moisture
about their mouths and an itch in their
fingers. The plum is the superintend-
ency- of the Utah census. 1t is worth
in the neighborhOod of $1,000, and the
good Republican who gets it will have
things coming his way for d While.
The fight is already on, although the
appointment, in the ordinary course Of
events, will hardly be made for some
months. On the priciple Of the early
bird, the Weber county Republican
committee has already endorsed a can
didate. 1t is not likely that the adj
ministration would know the Weber
county Republican committee if it
should meet it sauntering down the
pike, but the endorsement won't do
any harm, anyway.
B. +. Thomas, editor of the Ogden
Press and a staunch McKinleyite, is the
endorsee. Mr.. Thomas, so far as has
been given out, is not kin to Salt Lake S
postmaster who bears the same sur
name. Both are Republicans; both are
Welsh, and neither of them cares who

said to end. Mr. Thomas has ALWAYS
trained with the Arthur Thomas-P. II.
Lannan- Whittemore crowd, and hopes
to receive their endorsement.
A. S. Geddes, who is also Thomaslte,
etc, is seeking the same place. This
puts Cousin Arthur and Uncle Pat and
Brother Whittemore in q hole. They
don't want to turn down any man who
has had the courage to follow them as
they meandered. If they endorse
Thomas, Geddes will be hot, and if
Geddes gets their approval Thomas will
be real mad. To tell the truth, though
Geddes is said to belong to the Any
Other Old Thing club.
He wants to study law and live at
the expense of the public while doing
it. Accordingly, it is stated, he would
cheerfully accept a clerkship in Wash
ington that would enable him to do
this. The upshot of the matter prob
ably will be clerkship endorsement
for Geddes and the other for Thomas.
The anti-Thomasites, headed by for
mer Senator Brown and Lindsay Rog
ers, haven't picked a candidate as yet.
They will hardly let the other outfit
beat them to the job without a struggle.
SO they'll select a man before long and
run him for all he's worth. L will be
fight worth going long way to see.
and the S. r. O. sign will likely be
hung out very early.

NO CHANCE FOR QUAY.
Ex-senator Dubois Discusses the
DapncuT-n11io Toca

Pennsylvania Case.
Ex-senator Fred T. Dubois of Idaho,
accompanied by Mrs. Dubois, arrived
in the city yesterday from the east, and
are guests at the Knutsford, where they
will rest up for a day before proceed
ing to their home at Blackfoot.
In speaking of the action of Governor
Stone III appointing ex-senator Quay
to fill the vacancy caused by the Penn
sylvania legislatures failure to elect,
! and the probability of his being seat
ed Senator Dubois said machine poll
tics in Pennsylvania had received some
hard knocks lately, and since the &C
quittal of Mr. Quay on the serious
charges recently preferred against him.
an effort was being made by the ma
chine to rebuild its fences. His opin-
ion was that Governor Stone had made
the appointment, not because he had
any hope that his appointee would be
seated, but because the Republican ma
chine of the state did not propose to
drop him, and it wanted to resume bus
! mess at the old stand by using what
prestige there might be in the declar-
alton that the governor is for Quay"
The senator declared there was not
the slightest chance for Mr.. Quay to
take his seat. A precedent was first
Established IN 1888, Nnen, IOr the UfSL
time in the history of the country, some
of the gislatures-Delaware, Mon
tana and Wyoming, he thought-failed
to elect senators, and appointments
were made in each case by the gov
ernors. The senate at that time was
very evenly divided, politically, but it
decided, by a close vote, not to recog
nize the appointments. When later
the same proposition had to be met in
the case of Oregon, the senate was al
most unanimous in it's decision against
the applicant, and he was quite sure,
frcCn his knowledge of how such mat
tiers are viewed, that Mr.. Quay would
not be seated.
Regarding politics in Idaho, Senator
Dubois said he knew absolutely moth
ing, and from his expression it was
easy to discern that he cared less. He
had been east since December. he said,
had received few letters and fewer pa
pers from home, and was, therefore, in
absolute ignorance Of the conditions
prevailing in Idaho.

CONGRESSMAN IN TOWN.
MI. Fletcher of Minnesota Talks of
Quay Case

Congressman Fletcher of Minneapo-
lis. Mimi, was in the ciey yesterday on
his wav home from California. The
gentleman is a Republican, and looks
upon the governors appointment of
Senator Quay as simply expressing the
will of majority of the people of that
state. In Washington the opinion was
that had the verdict of acquittal been
rendered while the legislature tvas vet
in session, Senator Quay would have
been elected. From the precedent es-
tablished in former cases, however, the
gentleman was convinced that the SEN
ate would not recognize Senator Quay's
appointment by Governor Stone.
Salt Lake, Mr.. Fletcher says, has
undergone a delightful change in ap-
rearance since his last visit here, some
fifteen years ago.

So the officer lay in wait, and when the

into the rig, relieved Norma of the

it a huge joke until the desk sergeant
