Vinaigrette Collecting,

The mania for vinaigrette collecting is
on the increase, according to an English
paper, some of the best specimens being
owned by Mr.. McCalmont. There is
great fascination for lovers of antiquities
about these tiny boxes. When the lid is
raised lovely bit of filagree work is gem
orally brought to light, the grating above
the contents of the vinaigrette being often
curiously formed in the shape of nose
gay of flowers, a ship, or tiny landscape.
At first sight one might imagine a vinai-
grette was only an ordinary snuff box,
but the difference is easily seen because
the former opens in two places-in the
middle and at the top Two strong little
springs open the tink box at the side, the
first compartment being intended to cor
tain the bit of sponge soaked with aro-
matte vinegar, the second disclosing the
grating through which it can be
smelled.

BURKE DELAYED TOO LONG
Fire Board Will Have No.
IA House Completed at
His Expense.

The Fire Commissioners at a meeting
last evening received a reply from Cor
poration Counsel Allan L. McDermott in
regard to making Timothy Burke, the
contractor whose bid was accepted for the
mason work on the new engine house to
be known as No. IA and to be located in
the Twelfth ward, continue his work with
out further delay. The reply sent by Mr..
McDermott was as follows:-
'In October, 1S99 your Board awarded
to Timothy Burke contract for the
mason work in the building known as en-
CINE house No. IA. Mr.. Burke has not
completed his contract. The present con-
ditions are that work has been stopped,
while liens for labor and material furnish
ed to him and used on this work to the
amount of $500 have been filed against
any monies due or to become due to Mr..
Burke. In order to complete his contract
it will be necessary to spend about $500
to met which expenditure there is bal
ance in the appropriation made for the
building of this engine house.
'sUnder the contract with Mr. Burke, If
he does not make timely progress with
his work your Board shall serve a notice,
signed by the chairman of the Committee
on Department Buildings and Repairs, di-
recting the contractor to proceed. If he
does not do so within three days after the
service of the notice. your Board should
proceed to employ men to procure ma
terials and complete the contract, charg-
ing the cost against that portion of the
appropriation which has been unearned
by Mr.. Burke.
I'm my view liens are against moneys
due the contractor or that may hereafter
become due him, and no money would be-
come due to the contractor on account
of work or material furnished by the city
in order to complete contract in which
he has made default.
Yours respectfully,

Perkins Seconds Oldham.

Mr. E. b. Perkins, of Dallas, Texas, in
secondng Mr.. Bryan's nomination for
President, said:
THE Democracy of Texas comes to this
convention desiring one thing only-the
election of William j. Bryan to the Presi-
dency in November. To them this seems
the one supreme Importance. But today
the issues for the campaign of 1900 are
made up. The platforms adopted at Phila-
delphia and Kansas City cannot change
them. To meet and act upon the issues
which exist, AMI which are coming, re-
quires true greatness. For that, genuine,
true, open, honest, courageous manhood is
the only foundation. Without it there
may be superiority, but no greatness.
We know the man we advocate. He came
and mingled with my people. They have
studied him--watched him in the various
relations of life. They found that he
was endowed with manhood in a high de"
gree. Had they not, no Texas vote would
have been for him. They are old-fash-
toned, and make this the first, but not the
only test. They found also that, in intel
lectual culture; in the profound knowl-
edge of the theory of government, and
of the details of its administration; in
love for his people and patriotic devotion
to his country, this man was the peer of
the greatest statesman of the best days
of the Republic. They do not indulge in
hero worship. The hero's claim to great
ness rests upon past achievements. He
may or may not deserve the honor. Be-
sides, Texans. Texans follow not those
who faunt their own deeds before the
eyes of the world. and strut the platform
for applause. But the manly man, who
comes forth to fight the present and COM
ing battles of the people, him they honor
and him they trust.
"The hour has come when such an one
is needed. For now, the theory of the

hundred thousand valiant men to that
unequal fight
"And the story of how we'll he fought,
how fearlessly he fell, and how dearly the
enemys victory was bought, has all gone
out into history now.
Back from his first battle he came
a baffled but unconquered hero of the
rights of man. Conscious of the rectitude
of his purpose, and cheered by the belief
that no issue is ever settled until it is
settled right, he cheerfully acquiesced
his loins for the next great contest be-
tween the dollar and the man.
For four years he has waged an I'M
ceasing warfare against the people
enemy-for four years he has held ur
the partys standard and his voice has
cheered the hosts of Democracy in every
State and territory. When the trusts
began to increase under the protection
of Republican administration, he was
the first to point out the danger.
when the alarms of war for hui
mainly reused the heroic spirit of ouI
land, he offered his sword to his coun-
trys cause on the day that war was de-
clared.
when later he saw the Administration
departing from the ancient landmarks OF
our institutions, in it's enchanted dream
of empire and militarism, he was the
first to raise warning voice, and re-
signing his commission on the day the
Treaty of Peace was signed, he threw

Republic is called in question. Individual
liberty and local self government are
gravely challenged. Not SO much by
words as by deeds.
"On all issues the Republican party
has committed itself and the Govern
ment, to I'M American combinations of
power. For these it stands, and against
them is William J. Bryan. He favors a
tariff for revenue only so adjusted as to
burden and injure none. 1t favors high
protective tariff, so laid as to burden the
millions and benefit the few. He favors
