NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-Archbishop Ire
land to-day gave out the following per-
sonal statement as to his attitude in the
present campaign:
How do 1 intend to vote? 1t cannot at
first sight but seem more or less imperti-
nent for any citizen TO tell the public
how he intends to vote. In voting each
citizen obeys the dictates Of his own sense
OF civic duty; he should simply do this,
and leave to others TO do likewise. How
ever. since certain number OF newspapers
have undertaken to say how 1 intend to
vote, and in so doing have misinterpreted
to make political capital out of my sup
posed vote. will give to the question-how
1 intend to vote-a categorical and unmis-
taxable reply. / intend to vote for Will
liam Mckinley and Theodore Roosevelt.
In giving my vote for the candidates of
the Republican party. am satisfied in my
own conscience that / serve the best in
terests of the country at home and abroad.

the country's material prosperity and of

classes of its population. that 1 aid the
country in bringing about the safest and
most honorable solution OF the complex
problems which confront it as the result of
the late war, and in retaining for itself the
exalted position which it holds at present

There is hardly doubt that the United
States and Japan win concur in the prin-
ciple upon which the agreement rests. In
the face of such an alliance 1t is not likely
that France or Russia will venture on a

note was designed TO define the objects

agreement is formulated TO adjust the in

ings among the allies. 1t appears to give
the coup de grace TO the unavoidable
scheme OF spheres II influence, and Il
loyalty accepted wil do much to facilitate

who supported Palmer and Buckner four
years ago. declared himself to-day for
Bryan. Judge Harmon was on the bench
here for many years and succeeded Score

repeated efforts during the present cam

letters Of inquiry, but has not indicated
his purpose or preferences until to-day,
when he gave the following letter in reply
to letter from George NJ. Irwin, an at
torney at Colorado Springs. Col:
while 1 disagree with Mr.. Bryan as
strongly as ever about many things, the
free coinage OF silver included, l intend TO
vote for him because, like him and the
Democratic convention, I believe those
things are not so important nor so urgent
as others, on which / heartily agree with
him. Under our system, when President
seeks reelection. the primary question al
what he has done. especially when he
means TO keep on doing IL. In this instance
I wish to condemn. and have no means Of
doing so except by voting in the only way
which can possibly be effective The at
tempt Is made, it always. is, to prevent
condemnation for what the administration
has done by foreteiling dreadful things
which the opposition will do But IL there
be such danger. wise men always prefer a
risk 10 a certainty, especially when. as
now. the certainty involves so much more
than the risk"

Music Hall tonight. Long before the open
ing OF the doors the street in front OF the
hall was crowded by waiting people Judge
II. ID. Peck presided. When ex-senator
Hill was introduced he met a reception OF
cheers, waving OF handkerchiefs and clap
ping Of hands that continued several min
utes. When the applause subsidized Senator
Hill said:
low-Democrats-This reminds me
more of Kansas City than any other place

He said he had no apology TO make for
his position, that he acquiesced In the
choice OF the Kansas City convention be-
cause its candidates were the choice OF the
people. He said that the platform In The
main met his approval He did not expect
any platform to please him In every par
ticular, but was satisfied when the main
principles met his appreciation
At this point there was some disorder
that sounded like an intentional Interrupt
ton I'm the rear of the hall. The police re-
moved the disturber and quiet prevailed
ever afterward. negative popularity OF
the speech was his entire omission OF any

Snap Shots With a GraphophOne.

The graphophone is to the ear what
the Photographic camera is to the eye,
and more; for the graphophone catches
instantly and preserves every tint and
shade of sound. The most interesting
use of the graphophone is to make
records of your friends voices to be
preserved for future use. You can
catch the story of your jolly friend just
as he told it, the favorite song of some
loved one just as she sang it, and the
bright, quaint sayings of the little ones
natural to the life. They can be re-
produced perfectly at any time and as
often as you please. Besides, the
graphophone affords wonderful enter
tainment in the way of reproducing
the music of bands, orchestras, and
vocal or instrumental soloists. When
used in the sick room the graphophone
helps to while away many tedious
hour of convalescence. No investment
will return so much in pleasure as the
purchase of graphophOne. Graphic
phones are sold from IS up.

A Packed House.

The Grand opera house never held a

sembled last night to see the VanDyke

When the doors opened not seat

people were turned away from seeing
the excellent performance "Across the

The play was bright and full of wit
tay sayings and funny situations, and
in the hands of such a capable COM
pany proved to be as pleasant az enter

presented in our city.
One noticeable feature of the even
ing was the absence of "stars" and
"steiks." The company is composed
of evenly balanced actors and actresses
who know how to entertain, their work
showed careful study and preparation,
their wardrobe was as it should have
been, "just right" Their specialties
were well received, and but one YER
dict is heard this morning from the
900 people present: "The best popu-
lar priced company ever in Des

We cannot pass by two features of
the evening, however, without special

He Could shoot str.ight.


Said the man who had travelled:
"Years ago in a western frontier town
a traveller, footsore and weary, arrived
one afternoon and made his way down
the one street Of the burg. He was
suddenly startled by the sounds Of
shots, and, looking up, discovered four
men shooting at one another. The
men were standing at the four corners
Of an imaginary square, and each was
shooting at the man catacorner to him.
Being in what he supposed a safe posi-
ton, he paused to watch the outcome
Of the fray. when bullet, going wide
Of its intended mark, cut by his ear.
That reused his wrath, and, drawing
his pistol, he dropped the man in his
tracks who had all but dropped him.
Another bullet flying wide from its
mark, but near to the stranger, caused
him to lay out one of the other pair,
and the two remaining men sought
safety In fight. In that particular
town duels had been previously COM
paratively harmless amusements, ow-
ing to the poor craftsmanship Of the
contestants, but the man who could
shoot had arrived. and the inhabitants,
although they turned out to greet him
In a body and grant him the freedom
Of the city, did so In manifest awe and
trepidation.

A Dastardly Trick.

Last Saturday Andrew johnson Lea,
who lives few miles south of DEBORAH
came to town to do some trading and
hitched his team, one of which was a
stallion, on the city hitching grounds.
While he was up town doing his
trading some miscreant stabbed his
stallion in the side and stomach with
knife. 1t is valuable horse, and
may never recover from this wound.
Amy person who would do such a con-
temptible trick should be made to
suffer for it.

Death Of an Old Settler.

Mr.. Severt Atkinson Tvedt, one of
the Oldest settlers of this county, died
on Friday last at his home in Pleasant
township, at the age of II years. Death
was probably the result of a stroke of
paralysis which he suffered few days
before his death, followed by injuries
received from fall down stairs. He
was the father of Albert Atkinson, of
this city, and man highly respected
by all who knew him.

PEACHES AND CREAM.

Delicious Desserts That May he Served
While the Luscious Peach Is en-"
In cooking, the aroma of the peach is
largely lost. Approaching this fact and
believing that the fruit should be served
fresh whenever it is possible to do so, a
writer in the Boston Cooking School
Magazine presents number of recipes,
the mere reading of which causes ones
mouth to water. Following are few
of them:
A dainty method of serving that time
honored favorite, peaches and cream,
is to pare large peaches, ripe and rich
In flavor. Cut small slice from one
side, so it will stand upright; cut a
section from the other side about the
size Of dollar piece, and, with a small
knife, remove the stone and part of the
pulp. Fill the cavity with cream, whip
ped and sweetened, letting the cream
surmount the peach in a snowy cone.
Serve ON a pretty dish covered with
delicate green peach leaves Do not
pare the peaches until about to serve.
but keep them icy cold.
The success of this dish depends upon
the proper whipping of the cream. So
few persons understand how to whip
cream properly that / give the method
for its proper treatment. In the first
place, procure sweet double cream and
the finest powdered sugar Put the
cream into bowl and surround with
cracked ice. Let it stand about l 8 min
utes, until the cream is we'll chilled.
Then, if necessary, renew the ice, and
with an egg whip whisk rapidly until
the cream is thick to the very bottom Of
the bowl. Then sweeten with the finest
sugar dust stirred in lightly. Set on ice
to become we'll chilled before serving.
Cream should be very delicately flavor.
ed or it is disagreeable. A very little
almond, rose, pistachio fiavoring or the
delicate yellow rind Of fresh lemon,
grated, may be used.
Peach Gateau.-Use a sponge cake,
baked in a quart mold. Scoop out the
interior, leaving thin wall on the
sides and bottom. Fill with peaches cut
small and well sugared. Pile on top a
pint of chilled cream, whipped and
favored with peach extract and sprinkle
with pistachio nuts, chopped. In serv-
ing. cut the cake in wedge shaped pieces.
Peach Foam.-Pare and cut some
peaches fine. Mash to smooth pulp.
Whip half q pint of cream to stiff
foam, add slowly eight ounces of fine
sugar and whisk in half pint of peach
pulp. Whip briskly, add few drops
of almond extract and set on ice to be-
come chilled. Serve in tall, thin glass
es, strewing over the tops little rose
oolored sugar, or sprinkle with blanch-
ed almonds, chopped fine. Serve with
delicate waters.

smooth, fine grained and Of snowy
whiteness. Scald quart of thin cream,
add quarter of pound Of sugar and set
away to cool. When cold, add pint of
peach pulp prepared as in preceding

extract. Freeze carefully as for other
sherbets. Serve in tall, thin glasses,
with white cake daintily iced and fla
vored with bitter almonds.
