Mrs. Mary E. Lease, once Of Kansas, has been revolving about the Hub" tor some time, and has at last been drawn into the center. She has Solemnly associated herself
 with the Boston Branch of the Social Democratic Party of Mas sachusetts." At the same time she gives notice to the world that she has utterly and forever severed all the entangling alliances that have hitherto claimed her heart and tongue. We do not learn that Mrs. Lease has sent for her Charley with the kitchen stove and other things from Wichita. Alas, it appears that Msry's old habits still cllng to her, and instead of settling down as a good citizen to the attempt to keep the family underclothss darn ed and patched, she has arranged for series of meetings" for the cause of Social Democracy and the gate receipts.

"Little tubs of butter are arranged on shelves to the amount of i've thousand pounds, and in company with these are twenty thousand eggs. Twenty five hundred quarts of milk and cream are stored Tn & separate room, all having been sterilized. This market has a room especially for salt meats, and here hams, bacon ard tongues to the amount et four thousand pounds, There are some articles of food without which the epicure would be unhappy, and which must be alive when cooked. Chief among these are oysters, of which sixteen thou sand are carried to meet the wants of the passengers. Clans are only provided to the number of fifteen hundred. Lobsters are not abund antly supplies; seven hundred pounds is all the storeroom shelters. This market Tn the bottom of the ship contains, beside the things mentioned, truits, green vegetables and an enormous stock of groceries. The latter is only limited by space for groceries are not perishabIe goe( : and will keep from one voyage to another until used. Tea and coffee are used in large amounts-about thirty-three pounds days of tea and fifty pounds of coffee. Perish able supplies are taken on board in proportion to the number of pas ssngers booked, and anything of thls kind which is left over when the ship reaches port is eaten by the crew" ~
