RIVER AND HARBoR BILL.
It Carries Approximately 6O,OOO,-
600, the Second Largest ApprO-
DriatfOn on Record.

Washington, Dec. 22.-The river
and harbor bill was completed Fri
day night, and Chairman Burton gave
out a statement showing the amounts
appropriated. The total is approx
mately $6O,O0O,OOO, of which about
$2s, 100000 is in direct appropriation
and about $37 ,OOO,OOO in the authori-
zation of contracts for continuous
work. Compared with former river
and harbor bills, the present one is
the second largest on record, and
after the senate he's added amend
ments it is expected TO be well up to,
if not ahead of, all previous records.
The bill of 1900 carried $39,95S,165,
and that of 1897, which was the larg-
est on record, carried 72,275,954.

To Raise Palms from Seeds.

To start palm seeds is an easy mat
ter. Place half dozen seeds in six
inch pot, covering them so they will
be about two inches below the sur
face. They should then be well wa
tered, and the soil should be kept
fairly moist continually until the
little seedlings push their way up.
The soil should never be allowed to
dry out, nor should It be kept Soggy.
Another good plan is to place all the
seeds in a box of moist sand and ex-
anime them every few days. Those
that burst and begin to sprout may be
potted, if well started, in small pots.
1t should be borne in mind that the
embryo, or seed, leaves of palms are
usually entirely different in form
from the true. or character. leaves
which come later. In the embryo
leaves the form is long and narrow,
swordliie, and usually with no di-
visions-Robert r. MeGregor, in
Woman's Home Companion.

INSTRUCTED TO SIGN.
Secretary Hay Orders Minister Com
ger to Attach His Name to
the Joint Note.

Paris, Dec. 21.-The Havas Agency
has received the following dispatch
from Pel1ing, dated December 20:
''The foreign ENJOYS have signed the
joint note with the addition of Eng
lands stipulation that China can not
be allowed to foresee a cessation of
the occupation of Picking or the prov
ince of Chilli so long as she has not
conformed to the conditions of the
powers.
''Nlr. COnger has deferred signing
owing to the instructions to insist on
final moderation. but he thinks Wash
ington will not insist"
Washington, Dec. 22.-Secretary
Hays action in instructing Mr.. Con-
ger to sign the joint note was APP
proved by the cabinet at its meeting.
1t is learned here that the agree
ment signed by the ministers of the
powers at Picking, naming conditions
as preliminary to the negotiations of
peace terms, contains a demand for
the severest penalties that China can
impose in the punishment of the
high officials believed to be response
BILE for the Boxer outrages. This re-
fers particularly to the IL prominent
Chinese mobiles whose names have
been mentioned in the press dis
patches as those whom some of the
nations cOntended should be eXecut-
ed. Our government has persistently
held to the position that penalties
should not be inflicted on the Chi
nese government which she was UNI
able to carry out. The demand for
the death penalties was stricken out
of the agreement, and that for the
seYerest penalties possible inserted.

FADS AND FASHIONS.
some Of the Many Pretty Novelties
That Are Seen In Up to Date
Costumes.

Something unique in the way of q
dress trimming is made of cloth in the
pale biscuit shade, cut in Grecian and
other odd conventional designs in two
or three different widths, the narrow
ones stitched on the wider, giving a
raised effect, says the New York Sun.
The ribbons this season are charm
ingly varied in lowered striped and
spotted designs, the pannette ribbons
being especially soft and rich.
Cloth lace, or an applique trimming
of cream cloth finished around the
edges with small white silk cord, is
one of the popular decorations for
gowns and revers of the fancy coats.
Girdle belts made of ribbon are one
of the novelties in the shops They are
wide, pointed in front, and made on a
boned foundation to keep them in
shape. Tiny little gold knob buttons
fasten the plaits, laid in the ribbon in
vertical lines.
Gold cloth made with design in the
weaving is one of the latest novelties
Betting of panne velvet polka dotted
with white and edged with gold cord
serves a good purpose with flannel
waists worn with tailor-made skirts
but the panne or the spots should
match the waist in color.
\ popular garniture for gowns and
opera cloaks is made of chiffon to repre-
sent flowers attached to embroidered
stems. Violets are not too complicated
for this branch of industry, and they
are really very natural in coloring and
effect. Taffeta silk is also used for va
rious kinds of flowers for evening
gowns.
White satin seems to be the popular
coat lining for both SHORT fancy coats
and long garments for evening or day
wear.
One of the latest Varietiesof hat pins
is an irregular shaped pearl, set
around with diamonds and filagree gold
if it is genuine. But the imitation pearl
set.with rhinestones is much cheaper
edition..
Pannes in Persian colorings and de-
signs are much used for waists, as also
are figured velveteens.
Castor gloves are very fashionable
for street wear, and then there are the
heavy dressed kid gloves with pique
stitched seams.
There seems to be no limit to the
varied possibilities Of tucks, and now
we have them in fur, as if it were not
expensive enough without doubling up
IN its Value in that manner RraifSoh-
wanz is the one pelt which can be sue
cessfully manipulated in this way, but
the plan adds very little if any to its
beauty. The short blouse jacket is
shown in one style, with three tucks at
either side of the front beginning at
the shoulder and narrowing in at the
waist line.

A TOTAL LOSS.
Schooner Jennie Hall Stranded Near
Cape Henry-Captain and Three
Men Were Drowned.

Cape Henry, Va, Dec. 22-By teIe-
phone from Dan Neck Station it is
learned that the schooner Jennie
Hall, which stranded eight miles south
of Cape Henry at 4 a. m, will be a
total loss. The captain and two men
are drowned. The bodies are not yet
recovered. Four nearly died from
exposure, but were rescued in the
breaches buoy. One man still chung
to the mizzen crosstree. By heroic
efforts the life savers succeeded in
getting the sailor into buoy, and he
was hauled safely off. One of the
surfmen was washed out of the life
boat, but was rescued. The weather
is rainy, with light fog and a north
west gale blowing so miles an hour.

BRASS BEDsTEADs.
Polished Surfaces I'm
furnished.

Old-fashioned people who see the
brilliant brass bedsteads and other
brass furniture of the day, which re-
quire no polish of rottenstone and
chamois skin to keep them polished,
are astonished until they learn that
this is due to the surface of the
metal being covered with lacquer,
which keeps it from furnishing, says
the New York Tribune. The secre.
of this lacquer we learned from ths
Orientals, and the English seem t.
have learned it better than we did.
At all events, the lacquer on English
brass bedsteads lasts much longer
than that on American bedsteads.
This lacquered surface requires some
care. 1t should not be scratched, and
in damp weather it should be wiped
off with chamois or dry flannel dus-
ter, as dampness is always injurious
to lacquer. 1t is needless to say it
should never be touched with damp
cloth. When brass furniture is moved
it should be very carefully covered
with cheesecloth or some soft cloths,
as a lacquered surface of metal is as
delicate as one of polished wood, and
as easily injured by being scratched.
Lamps when lacquered soon become
defaced and must be relacquered. This
is because of the heat of the light.
The relacquering of such small pieces
does not cost much. Fine sets of brass
which are continually subject to heat
must be secured with rottenstone and
chamois skin in the painstaking, old
fashioned way, as these pieces will
not bear lacquering any length of
time.

DECLARED OFF.
The Strike of the photographers on
the Gulf, Colorado & Santa
Fe Road Ended.

Houston, Tex, Dec. 22-The strike
of the telegraph operators on the
Gulf, Colorado e. Santa Fe was called
off. 1t is presumed that there would
be issued at once an order calling off
the strike on all branches of the At
Gibson system, but the Order of Rail-
road Telegraphers' committee has
jurisdiction over Texas alone. The
strike was inaugurated in Texas Is
days ago. No concessions were asked
by the men or offered by the com
pany as preliminary to calling off
the strike.
Topeka, Kan, Dec. 22.-President
Dolphin, of the Order of Railway Te-
legraphers, has declared the strike of
the operators on the Santa Fe off,
All the striking operators here have
received orders from President Dol
phin that the strike would continue
no longer. The operators are begin
ming to speculate as to whether they
will be reinstated in the employ of
the company. They now have the
permission of the organization to
work if they can secure work.

American National Bank, of

Washington, Dec. 22.-The comp

Frank Aldrich temporary receiver of
the American National bank, of Bal
timore, Md. This bank, it is stated,
has suffered large shIinkage in de-
posts and has sustained some heavy
losses, which involved its capital and
surplus and reduced greatly it's cash
resources. The condition of its as
sets is such that the loss to deposit

of the condition of the bank, no fur

THE AUTONOMY PARTY.
Leaders Submit a Platform to the
Philippine Commissioned Step
Toward ScIf-GOVernment.

Manila, Dec. 21.-The leaders of the
projected autonomy party have again
visited the Philippine commission
and the platform proposed was dis
cussed privately and in an informal
way. The commissioners advise the
eliminatiation of few minor fea-
lures. Personally they approve the
movement as forward step in the
direction of the ultimate measure of
self-gOvernment which the committee
has already been instructed to en-
deavOr to bring about. The plan of
the party is to form United States
territories involving candidature for
ultimate statehood. The platform
declares in favor of a senate and
house of representatives elected from
the districts of the archipelago ac-
cording to population. In preparing
a bill of rights the United States con-
stitution is utilized, with the excep-
ton of the feature of trial by jury.
According to the plan, the gov
ernor general appointed by the pres
ident would have the power to veto,
except in cases of two-thirds vote
of the legislature. The legislature
would choose five delegates to the
United States.
The platform opposes the sale of
the Philippines without the consent
of the legislature. 1t contains little
regarding judicial or local affairs.
In the main it repeats the features
of the United States constitution.
The most influential and honorable
natives are identified with the move
ment.

DRESSED BIRDS ARE DEAD.
The Needed Lesson That Was Given .
Fault Finding Poultry
Dealer.

During last Thanksgiving week poultry
man Of the northwest sent several barreIfuls
of fat, dressed turkeys to certain commits
sion merchant, who is an extremely CLOSE
buyer" and never fails when he receives a
consignment to claim an allowance for some
thing alleged to have spoiled on the way.
Heretofore, says the San Francisco Argo-
naut, he had dealt exclusively in live
fowls, and probably the correspondence
clerk got things mixed. AT any rate the
shipper was astonished to receive letter by
return mail about as follows:
Dear Sir: We regret to advise you that
four of the turkeys in your consignment Of
November reached here dead. Please make
deduction for same and return correct
amount. Yours truly"
The poultryman communed with himself
and replied thus
Dear Sir: am sorry to say find it i'm
possible to make the concession requested.
have established a rule requiring all GUS
toners who desire live dressed turkeys to
notify us in advance, so we can send them
in heated cars. Turkeys without feathers
and insides are liable to catch cold if shipped
in the ordinary manner. The mortality
among dressed turkeys was very large this
year. Yours mournfully."

TO HOUSEKEEPERS.
BuKgestiOns Concerning Various
Matters That Come Within
Their Province.

Feathers may be cleaned and the
peculiar odor that sometimes pertains
to them removed by washing them
in water into which ammonia has
been put. 1t is better to dampen
them before taking them out of the
ticks, so they will not fly. While still
wet, after the cleaning process, pin
them or sew them in a bag made of
"a large sheet and run this on the
line where the sun and air can have
their way with them in the process
of drying and freshening. 1t may
take several days to dry them per-
fectly. In the meanwhile wash and
dry the ticks. Choose, for pillows and
mattress covers, the light gray and
the light brown tickings, rather than
the dark blues, etc, says the Detroit
Free Press.
1t is not good style to pile the din
ner plates before the carver's place
and pass them from thence. A plate
should be put at every place. The
maid then takes the plate from the
carver and hands it to the person,
taking the plate at his place back to
the carver. If there is no waitress,
the full plate is passed and the place
plate returned from hand to hand. If
soup is served the soup plate is set
upon the place-plate. Theie is, how
ever, no plate under the salad-piate.
Correct serving requires a plate at
every place except where the table is
being cleared for the dessert.
Tn brass picture hangers (hooks)
which slip over the picture molding
and hold the picture wire sometimes
gets badly tarnisneG. They may be
made as bright as new by getting
some muriatic acid, putting it in
cup or tumbler, and after stringing
the hooks on a cord, dipping them
in it for a minute or two. Do not
get this acid on hands {: clothing.
Biscuit and rolls should be allowed
TO rise one-half longer than bread. be-
cause the loaves of the former, being
smaller, are more easily penetrated
by the heat and the fermentation is
more speedily arrested, therefore
they do not rise % mucn in the oven.

EARNED HIS SALARY.
with a Few Notes from His Chest he
illustrated the Value OF
His Singing.

A favorite story of the late Sims Reeves
tells how, once upon time, the famous tenor
was stranded at country junction, waiting
for train. 1t was cold and miserable and
the singer was naturally not in the best Of
temper. While chewing the cud Of iisap-
pointment an old railway porter, who recog-
nized him from the published portraits, en-
tered the waiting-room.
Good evening, Mr.. Reeves" he said.
Good evening, my man" replied the vo-
calist, getting, ready the necessary tip. But
the man sought for information rather than
tips.
"They tell me you earn heap of money"
he remarked.
""Oh!" murmured Mr.. Reeves.
"And yet" pursued the porter, "'you don't
work hard. Not so hard as I do, for in
stance stance. But ! dessay, you earn--p'raps ten
What do you earn?" asked the singer.
Eighteen shillings a week all the year
round" said the porter.
Sims Reeves opened his chest: "Do re, mi
dol" he sang, the last note being ringing
top one, "There, my man; there's your
years salary gone!"
