for the night. It was jolly party of six. including Mir. and Mrs Zaeha' rlah Hatch. that encircled the table at that last supper of the dying year Myrtle's married brother. Edward Hatch. and hls young wife had prom ised to be home for the holiday. in- tending to come up from Rochester on the evening train. Their nonappear- ance was the only cloud that hung over the Hatch homestead that night.
 As in every reunion of old friends. it would be easier to tell what they didn't than what they did talk about. but it was when music was the subject claiming attention that Myrtle re- marked:
 since you went away I've lost my voice. I cannot sing for any length of time without becoming boarse."
 "Dltto here" added John.
 You should try our Professor De beau's prescription" advised George.
 (Which is"-
 Professor Debeau. our instructor in vocal music. says such trouble results almost entirely from a persons breath Ing through his mouth, especially when asleep"
 "Dld he suggest a remedyT
 "YeS. He says that the best remedy Is to take wide strip of lsinglass plaster and to fasten the lips together with lt and leave 1t on all night. If you buy a yard of the plaster and use it every night. before it's gone your voice Is all right It's sure death to snoring too"
 "Dld you ever try ltl" was Johns poser.
 "No-o." admitted George. Out sev. eral of the boys at college thought lt cured their hoarseness. aud sore threats. too. at times. and one thing Is cCrtaln-it will keep a person from snoring"
 The pleasant evening enjoyed by the gathering has nothing to do with our story. Suffice lt to say that an hour or SO after the party rose from the supper table the young men excused  themselves and left May and Myrtle to an exchange of condolences while they set out for a stroll. Hardly had the door closed upon their departing forms when Myrtle exclaimed: May, have promised to sing at an enter tainment next week and have been dreadlng lt for days. Suppose we buy some of that plaster and use 1t to- night"
 May bad been thinking of just the same thing.
 Agreed, but we mustn't let the boys know anything about it." was the re- sponse.

 Having secured their treasure, Myr' tle and May hurried back and were soon In the privacy of Myrtle's room. An hour or so later they decided, as May expressed t. to "muzzle them selves" and retire for the night May had felt a tickling ln her throat that was doubtless of an imaginary or sym pathetic nature and had decided to try the cure herself. So each cut generous strip of the plaster, molsten- ed and applied It and sat down, hands pressed tightly over mouth. waiting for the plaster to dry.
 Naturally when the drying process was completed they found 1t impossl- ble to speak. So they had recourse to paper and pencil to describe their first sensations as mutes and were soon ready to pay their respects at the shrine of Somnos.
 While the young folks had been en- toying themselves In the parlor Mir. and Mrs. Hatch had been ln the sit- ting room. he with his paper and she with her knitting. It vas the wife who looked up and said:
 "Zachariah. don't you think 1t would be a good plan to get some of that plaster and see lf 1t wouldn't help you swear o0 snoring for the New YearI It's dreadful! If you could only hesr yourself snore. you wouldn't stop at trouble or expense"
 "Perhaps-some time" replied Mir. Hatch. manllke. without taking his eyes on his paper.
 "But don't you think you had better try lt tonight and start the New Year rightT' persisted his wife. You don't want Mir and Miss Loveroy to go home and say that they couldn't sleep be- cause you snored so loud"
 q suppose so Don't bother me. Send Myrtle after some If you like" replied the rather gouty tempered Mir. Hatch.
 "No: believe will go myself and not let the girls know anything about It." And hIs good wife laid down her work and started for the drug store.
 The druggists surprise gave way to astonlshnent as Mrs. Hatch demanded of him yard of isinglass plaster. H' concluded that somebody must be pret ty badly cut up over at the Matches.

BIG MONEY IS BID
FOR BOARD FENCE
Twenty Seven Dollars Thousand
Feet Paid for Union Square
Barrier.

When Col. VIII Z. Fisher mounted
the auctioneer's box at the Union
Square yesterday to sell the board fence
which has surrounded the once plague
infected premises, there was a general
feeling that the fence would sell at
about the figures realized from the sale
of the Chinatown fence. Between SIG
and SIS per thousand feet accrued from
the auctloneer's efforts to dispose of the
Chinatown boards. Fisher started the
bids at good gait, and soon urged the
seekers after old lumber into sending
the figures up into the twenties.
The competition was lively and the
men who wanted it kept raising the
price until Fisher got them to $25. Here
halt was made for some time and then
another dollar was added. Another
pause, and just as it was about to be
knocked down at S26, a bidder jumped
in with $27 offer. This held good and
Fisher stepped down satisfied that lie
had beaten the Chinatown bids by a
good margin.

Stephen A Douglas IN tbs Bear kin

Mr.. William c. Morris. the we'll
known insurance man, was exchanging
"reminiscences with me the other day,
when something was said about Steph-
en- A. Douglas.
You know that Douglas" said Mr..
Morris, like many great statesmen of
his day, sometimes drank to excess, and
in his frolics with the boys forgot all
about Senatorial dignity. | saw him
gloriously drunk in a little Illinois town
in 1859, after he had made a great
speech.
The Senator at that line had an iron
constitution. He could work harder
and drink more than any of his con-
temporaries, and his excuses did not
muddle his head or tangle his legs.
in this little Illinois town he lost
his equilibrium for once.
After drinking many hours with
scores of tough old tOpers-drinking
champagne, brandy and whisky-the
Little Giant unexpectedly collapsed.
A moment before he stood like a
granite statue Then, without the
slightest warning he was a shapeless
lump of booty humanity, lolIing in a
big armchair.
THE reckless jewellers had just sense
enough to know that Douglas was
drunk, and their next step was prac-
teal joke, which was a disgrace to the
town.
I'm front of drug store stood a big
stuffed bear. The drunken mob pulled
him down. They ripped him open and
pulled out the stuffing.
at was O'Clock in the morning, and
the sober citizens then on deck were too
few in number to do anything.
THE town boys had their way. They
TANNED the unconscious Senator into
the beaTskin and stitched it up.
Then they propped the horrible fig
ure in a large chair in the hotel lobby
and stood around it in state of wild
and noisy hilarity until daylight.
Occasionally the bear would give a
lurch forward, but the bystanders
Strengthened him up again. The Sena-
tors snorts and grunts were so decid-
eddy bearish that the boys were de-
lighted.
I'm the early morning hours, when
the bear left his chair and gave chase
to his tormentors, swearing at them in
good old-fashioned Anglo-Saxon, the
tipplers went into spasms of glee, and
il was difficult to induce them to rip
open the bearskin and put the furious
Senator to bed.
THAT was the NEE nest practical joke

DeOp Summer Drinks AFP M aQM THEY

The lice Trust Cocktail" is here, like
wise the Mamie Taylor" the new drink
invented by a party of Washington cor
respondents. Each is a long, cool
drink but the former is extolled more
by the local beverage dispensers. The
Mamie Taylor is made by squeezing
lime into a tall, thin glass, then
throwing in a quantity of cracked ice.
over this a good sized hooker of Scotch
whisky is poured, and then the glass is
filled up with ginger ale.
At the capital the Mamie Taylor
achieved instant popularity. 1t seems to
have superseded completely the gin and
whisky rickey and the Scotch highball.
The 'Ice Trust Cocktail was devised
by the "Only William" of lower Broad
way. 1t is simply creme de menthe and
brandy in equal parts, well shaken up
with cracked ice and poured into a cock
tail glass; This drink made such a hit
that he got up the "Ice Trust Cooler
for those who wanted a long drink. Half
a lemon is squeezed into tall glass.
Civilian is constitutionally opposed to
lines for reasons about to be explained,
then Rhine wine, sherry and brandy In
to taste The mixture is decorated with
fruits in season, such as a couple of
strawberries, a slice of pineapple and
orange. For ladies tablespoonful Of
ice cream is added.
Wouldn't that freeze your" inquiries
the "Only William" with his most Sc
ductive smile.
The two other popular drinks this sum-
mer are the Zephyr" made Of one-third
sherry and rum and two-thirds Rhine
wine and a teaspoonful of lemon Juice,
and June Punch" composed of Rhine
wine, Moselle and sherry in equal parts,
nip Of rum, dash Of brandy and q
teaspoonful of champagne.
For ladies a thirst quencher that has
hit the popular fancy at the summer re-
sorts is called whisper of the Forest"
Two long sprigs of mint are put into a
high tumbler, finely cracked Ice is ad-
ded, half a lemon squeezed over 1t, g.
tablespoonful of powdered sugar and
claret, sherry and rum in equal proper
lions poured in. When thoroughly mix
ed with a long handled spoon, two
straws, slightly dampened, are held
against the side Of the tumbler by capil-
larry attraction, and the concoction is
served milady on the veranda
1.-THE rickey Is dead letter now" de-
clares William. LINES are all right
but lime juice is deadly in its action on
the stomach If taken too literally, cut
ting the lining literally to shreds. In
telligent men who consider the after ef-
fects do not drink rIckey except OCCASION

BERLIN, July 1.-The Chinese situa-
ton continues to assert a depressing In

erations were small, and business dull.
The monthly tax settlement passed off
without difficulty, but there was consid-
cradle forced selling, and the boerse was

The money conditions for the settlement
were unexpectedly easy. The discounts

position than it was year ago. Consid-
