Attractive Dishes.

The wise housewife will be quick to ap-
preciate the value of these little accGS-
series. They appeal to her nice sense Of
taste as well as aid in carrying out many
little economies in the way OF utilizing Earl-
Gus odds and ends that would otherwise
be impossible.
There is Surer or more effective way
of CultiVatinE refined tastes in a child than
by beginning at the table, surrounding IL
with every evidence of good form and
taste here and aSsoCiating in its mind with
the good things mother makes, all the nice
little Observances that make the plainest
and simplest table as attractive as the mil
lionaire'S. While individuals may eradicate
all other indications of early neglect in
home training, table impressions made
familiar to the child from its earliest recol-
lection are sure to go with 1t through life
and often cause them to be miSjudged by
careful observers of good form. RENE m

Things Taste Better.

The individual who argues that things
taste just good without so much fuss,
knows nothing OF the added pleasure and
enjoyment he would derive from foods
more daintily served. The tired hungry
day laboror can satisfy his hunger from Il
tin dinner-pail seated on the dusty road
side; but he looks forward to the enjoy
mCnt Of his Sunday dinner served on a
table with clean. though perhaps coarse
linen, well polished, though inexpensive
china and glass. Add to this a little care
and see how quickly he will respond to the
effort. Table influences are the greatest
factors all through life in their refining in

THE FENIANS ACTIVE.
They Are Engaged in Storing Large Guam
titles of Explosives and Provisions
on the Vermont Border.

Burlington, VT, Jan. At is re-
ported that the Fenians are engaged
in storing large quantities of dyna-
mite, lvddite ammunition and supplies
in few selected repositories in re-
mote districts of Vermont and Maine,
neal the Canadian boundary line. The
information comes from persons who
claim to have knowledge of the pur-
chase of some of the supplies, and
others who learned of their transpor-
tation by railroad disguised as gro
ceries. Dynamite and other explosives
have been secured in surprisingly
large quantities and stored under
ground on the Vermont border, while
quantities of canned meats have been
hidden in some large barns of sym
pathizing farmers on the Maine line
near New Hampshire.
1t is said that an efficient ambulance
corps is being organized under the
supervision of few loyal Irish wo-
men, and surgeons who were in the
lied Cross work in Cuba. They are
also preparing a large number of
''first aid" packages for the invading
force.
The movement is the work of the
Irish element of the larger cities, but
it is fact that large and important
work is being done among the farm
ers of the border states. A schedule
is being arranged of farmers who can
furnish wagons and horses and oxen
for transportation purposes, as this
sc 4 H.
tail. A careful study is being made
of the small railroad branches in
northern New England, and places are
being located where the road could be

THE HOLIDAY CHIMES.
of Trinity and other Churches
in New York.

New York, Jan. 2.-The usual holi-
day crowd gathered at Trinity and
listened to the chimes. 1t is estimat-
ed that 10000 people gathered in the
streets after the annual custom. Sew
cral thousand people also gathered in
Broadway and the adjacent streets to
hear the chimes at Grace church. A
magnificent program of 20 numbers
was played at tho church by Miss
Bertha Thomas.
Thousands also gathered in and
around st. Andrews church, Fifth
avenue and 127th street, for the pur-
pose of listening TO the splendid new
seguin chimes recently installed in
that church. Archbishop Corrigan
celebrated midnight mass at the Ca
thcdral. The service was the solemn
pontifcal mass held by papal decree
of Leo XIII. in comrnemoration of
the beginning of the last year of the
nineteenth century, known to Cath
oltcs as the holy year, or year Of
jubilee.

LEO NAMES HIS SUCCESSOR.
The POntif FavOrs GirOlamO Maria
GOttf, the Famous GenO-

Rome, Jan. at is asserted that
the pope, after the recent ceremony
of opening the holy door at st. Pc
ter's cathedral, addressed his intimate
encourage, and said: 81 thank Di-
vine Providence for granting me the
grace of being able to celebrate this
great function, and ] wish for my
successor grandeur and a long reign
to the greater glory of God.
my successor will be young, as
compared with my own age, and will
have time to see many glories of the
papacy and the church."
Later Leo clearly designated CardI-
nal Girolamo Maria Gotti. prefect of
the congregation of 1ndulgences and
Sacred Relics, as his successor.
Cardinal Gotti, the famous Genoese
monk, is man of perfect piety and
modesty. Now about Ga years of age,
he has always lived the life of an as
cetic. and, despite the dignity of a
prince of the church, he always sleeps

DISPUTE SETTLED.
Controversy over Extension of Con-
cessions In China Between Eng
land, France nnd Uncle sam.

Washington, Jan. THE announce
ment that the extension of the for
eign concessions at Shanghai, China,
has been finally approved, brings to
close diplomatic controversy be-
tween Great Britain, the United States
and France, which has at times be-
come rather acute. France taking the
position at one stage of the negotia-
tions that the American cooperation
with the British in opposing the
French plan of extension was an un-
friendly act toward F."ince. This and
other differences have been happily
adjusted, according to announcement"
from China, which are borne out b.
the information Of officials here.
The controversy assumed an inter
national scope when the three colo
nies at Shanghai-British French and
American-sought to extend their
limits. The concessions are just out
side of the old native city, and along
the river Whang Poo, near the point
where it joins the Yang-Tse- -Kiang.
They are chiefly important because

empire. The French settlement ia

French desire was to erect their set
tlement SO as to take in a large area
back of the old city. including five
American missionary institutions. The
British government opposed this ex-
tension quite vigorously.
The British plan of extension was
for an international settlement =

American attitude did not include an

made by the British. 1t was to this
