late Robert Bonner ever made a bet was

swiftest composition on earth.

you haven't tried Bonner yet"

Milking in Fly Time.

The perpetual twitching Of cows tail
into the mixers face and eyes is ex-
tremcly annoying, aside from the liabil-
ity of getting dirt switched from the tail
into the milk-pail. Some mixers tic the
cows tail to her leg, but the flies make
the cow so uneasy that she will soon
switch her tail loose, or else will break
into n run. The best way to keep flies
from cows is to rub little grease over
will be enough. Then spread over her
branches cut from the trees, allowing the
green leaves to extend down her sides.
The mixer can then milk in comfort. 1t

three days, keeping it in water when

Lobster Kills a Rat.

A hungry rat got into a Bath kitchen
the other day, aud espying some live lob
sters seized one and started with it for
his hole. The lobster, in his turn, seized
the rodent and the next morning the lob
ster was found on the kitchen floor and
the rat was there also, the lobster alive

in the lobster business for one who

THE DOLLAR DINNER.
II Promises to BE n Notable Political
Event.

Republic Special.
New York. March 24.--Msny shades Of
modern thought will be REPRESENTED at the
dollar dinner" in honor of Thomas Jeffer-
son. to be held at the Grand Central palace
In this city on April 10.
Among those who have been invited and
who are expected to be present are Bishop
Henry G. Potter. Rev. Or, Felix Adler. r.
Fulton Cutting, DR.. Edward MGGlynn. Samuel
Gompers and John n. Parsons.
Two women only will be invited. That was
decided upon at meeting OF the dinner
committee today. One OF these is Miss Helen
Miller Gould. The name OF the second woman
to be invited has been agreed upon, but will
not be announced at present
The dinner is developing into nonpartsan
movement and the full list OF invited CUE SITS
win be interesting.
Oliver II. P. Belmont will be guest of
honor and may be included among the speak
ers. Mr.. Belmont and his brother. Perry
Belmont, are sworn enemies politically and
their personal relations ara not OF thu best.
Oliver Belmont not long ago retired from the
banking business TO enter Journalism ana is
dGyoting himself almost exclusively TO a
weekly publication. He is out OF sympathy
with his former friends in the Democratic and
Manhattan clubs and believes that the time
has come for men in his position to identify
themselves with the progressive movements
of the time Mr.. Belmont has been mentioned
as q possible candidate for the ice prest-
dency on the democratic ticket IN 1900. but
he has no ambition IN that direction.
John C. Sheehan. who is soiourning IL Hot
Springs. has been considered a pretty good
democrat. even by the most radical friends
of Colonel Bryan. but the gentlemen in
charge of the dinner say that Mr.. Sheehan Is
not up to the standard OF democracy fixed
for this occasion and. therefore. no will not
receive an invitation to the dollar dinner. "

The announcement in yesterdays Post
to the effect that plans for system of
train sheds at the Grand Central depot in
this city had been prepared and forwarded
to the New York offices OF the Houston
and Texas Central for the consideration OF
the officials there. was read with a great
deal of interest by the people Of Houston,
who for some time past have been con-
WINGED that such an Improvement was due
the city for several different reasons. The
amount of business done at the depot
every day would alone seem to warrant the
erection of the Sheds for when 1t Is con-
sldered that there are thirty passenger
trains in and out OF the station daily IL
does not require any extensive stretch OF
ones mental powers to see that great
many people get on and off trains there
In the course OF year. Then, too, Hous-
ton is Il growing and progressive city. and
the immense strides she Is making toward
metropolitan proportions and Importance
creates necessity for the establishment
OF improvements In every possible direc-
ton. The improvements now being made
ON the depot Will. when completed, make
Il one OF the very finest structures OF tho
kind In the entire South and In view of
this fact and the additional one that there
are many cities in the United states
which are net nearly SO large nor so i'm
portant, from commercial standpoint.
as Houston, but which have union depots
equipped with sheds and all the modern
appliances OF an UP 20 date station, the
contemplated Improvement is all the more
to be desired

any event the sheds will be In the nature
