Philadelphia, June I9-The huge hall
filled slowly. AT 1890 there were not
over 900 persons in the hail. At noon
Quay entered and was greeted with
cheers. A little later Senator Hanna
came in but his low stature concealed
him from the eyes of delegates and
spectators. At 1885 the band played
"The Star Spangled Banner" and Hanna
rose, followed by all the delegates. Al

prayer by DR.. Bolton of Philadelphia
Then Hanna said Secretay Dick would
read the call. Both Hanna md Dick
were loudly cheered, After the reading
by Dick, Hanna presented Senator VOL
colt as temporary chairman. Wolcott
was greeted with great cheering. Time
and again he took the convention off its
feet by his eloquence. The widest scene
followed his statement that "the passage
of the gold standard bill marked the
termination forever of any sort of differ
ence between the Republicans OF the
west and the east growing cut of the cur
rency problem" Loud continued cheers
followed. Roosevelt jumped to his feet
and waved his hat and his example was
followed by every delegate on the floor.
After appointment of committees on
credentials and resolutions the conven-
ton adjourned at 3 o'clock until noon to-
morrow.
All is speculation as to the vice presi-
dency, most of the delegates believing
Roosevelt is sincere in declining and
that he would add strength to the ma
,ional ticket as candidate for governor,
Hanna said at noon: Roosevelt must
be counted out oil it now"

TORTOISE SHELL ORNAMENTS.
A.. n Present More Popular Than
Ever and Are Worn In
Many Forms.

At the present time tortoise sheu or.
naments are very much in evidence, and
perhaps the newest and smartest OF all
these beautiful things is small bou-
uuet holder that pins on the front OF
the gown. 1t is devised to hold just
enough water to keep fresh few sprigs
of lemon verbena, heliotrope or bit OF
other sweet-smelling plant. In shape
the holder is similar to small tube
about three inches long. At the lower
end it is tapering and closed. The top
is finished with narrow band Of gold,
and at the back there is pin also OF
gold with a strong clasp. By its means
the holder is always held in an upright
position.
The same material is being much
used for the handles of parasols, and
very fashionable ones are to be found
in the fashionable shops. The hand
soonest one that has yet been seen was
brought by New York woman from
Switzerland, where she had il carved to
order for her. 1t represents turkeys
claw holding ball. The ball revolves
as though on its axis; but ii could be
readily seen that the whole thing was
carved out of one piece of the most ex-
quisitely marked shell. The parasol
that it upheld was lined with white and
covered with rare bit of black lace.
Hare's and ducks heads are also made
| in tortoise shell for parasol handles, or
rather for the handles of the small UNI
brella parasols that are called b. the
French en- tout cas-, as they answer
equally we'll for rain or shine.
The word large hardly seems to ex'
press the dimensions of the back combs
at present, and they are made either OF
a solid, severe piece of curved shell, OF
they are most Enthusiastically carved
Cupids drawing chariots and swans fly
ing about appear to be favorite designs
OF course, it would only be correct Il
wear them in the evening, and even so, II
is far from being every style of face thai
finds them becoming. Bows to pin il
the hair, modelled from those made o.
wired ribbons that of late have been 81
popular, are also late novelties. Fo
such purposes the shell is used very thin
and is quite transparent.
To hold up the willful little scoldinl
locks at the back of the head, orna
ments in shell can be bought in almos
any fantastic design, they have becom
SO popular. 1t is now not unusual to Sc
young tortoise of high polish an
beautiful colors calmly reposing upo
the back of some fair head. A long pi
Of shell passes through the turtle
body on the under side and fastens

To Prevent Colds.

An excellent preventive against colds
is an all-over sponge bath in water that
has stood in the bowl over night on ris-
ing in the morning. This is heroic
treatment ON cold day, but if perse-
vered in, where one is not too delicate.
the result is beneficial. Rub the body
well with the hand and a coarse towel.
This will set the blood TO circulating,
opens the pores of the skin and keeps
it in a healthy condition and tones the
entire system. Buy bag of sea salt,
pour quart of boiling water over a
cupful and add tablespoonful of am
monia and one of camphor. Put the
mixture in quart bottle and keep on
your washstand. Add one ca two table,
spoonfuls of this to the water for the
morning bath, and it will be found an
excellent touic and cleanser National

The custom of deceiving people on
the LIST of April and then calling them
April fools was once more general than
It is now, and on one occasion it was
turned to good account. Francis, duke
of Lorraine, and his wife were impris-
oned at Nantes. On the LIST of April
they planned to make their escape.
Disguised as peasants-he with hod
en- his shoulders and she with basket
of rubbish on her back-they passed
through the gates of the city. As they
did so woman recognized them, and,
running to the guard, told the sentry
who they were. "April fool!" cried the
soldier, and all the guards laughed and
shouted: "April fool, mother!" The
story was told the governor as joke
and he laughed, too. Soon, however
IL was discovered that the woman spoke
the truth. but by that time the fugi
tives were well on their way. The Isl
Of April saved them.-London Chron

turer by comparison. Theseexhibits
consist of manufacturer articles, the
product of various countries, with
which the American may be called up

In this section are samples of hats,

In one group are gathered specimens
Of the print cloths used in different

each sample is affixed card bearing
the name of the country where it is
manufactured, the country where it is
sold, the cost price and the selling
