The Chinese Cook.

Mrs. White determined in the first
flush of her newly we'd dignity that
she was not going to be squeezed" by
the Chinese cook and the storekeeper,
as it was quite plain every one else
was. Accordingly she purchased scales
and weights and announced her inten-
ton of personally weighing everything.
For some days this method proved very
satisfactory. but she was sometimes a
little puzzled on finding that the provi-
sions occasionally weighed more than
was charged for.
One day tile mystery was solved.
She was carefully weighing a chicken.
In China not only is everything. living
and dead. sold by weight. but fowls are
always supplied alive. The chicken
during the weighing operation sudden
" entered a vigorous objection ana be
gan to flap and struggle with all its
might. ana during these fappin@s and
stru"gingS something wcighly fell
with q thud to the floor, evidently from
somewhere about the chicken. This

John looked thoughtful for a moment

"Why, I'd have a real solid iron

PAULDING OF LONG ISLAND CELE-
DRAFTED PIPPIN APPLE CIDER.

This pure cider is served on steamers on
the American line, and at the Waldorf-As-
toria and leading family grocers in New
York city.
Pauldings Pippin cider is made from
the pure juice OF hand picked apples from
his own mill on the premises. 1t is abso-
lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer-
Vescence is natural. and we guarantee il
to be the choicest cider in the world.
Leading physicians in New York and
Brooklyn recommend this cider to their
patients, its perfect purity is guaranteed
in Paulding's Pippin cider. only Long Is
land Newton's Pippins are used. The ap-
pies are LEFT on the trees Until late in Oc-
tober when they are hard picked and
pla ced in a dry room to ripen.
Paulding says the apples are thorough
ly crushed in his own mill and the Juice
pressed out and run into sweet clean
casks" The difference between crushing
and grinding apples is very great
You will know the difference between
crushed app s and ground apples IL you
take some stems and chew them you will
find that bitter taste which is not with
Paulding's crushed apples. This cider has
not the extreme sweetness of the Russet
cider, and everyone will find the Pauld-
ing's Pippin cider just right to take with
dinner LIPPMAN BROS,

GATE CITYS WATERWORKS.
MONEY FOR IMPROVING GROUNDS
But NONE FOR VALVES.

Nearly $1,000 spent an Building a
Summer House and Planting Flow
ers, but the Water Board Has Not
Enough Money to Make the Neces-
sary RepaiFs-Members of the
Board Who Did Not Approve This
Expenditure.
Atlanta. Aug Additional interest has
peen aroused in the waterworks situation
by the announcement that $4,000 has been
spent for Identifying the pumping sta
ton grounds without authority of the
water board, while the crying need for
new valves could not be supplied on ac-
count of a lack of funds
Since the expense was incurred by Supt
Park Woodward it has received formal
approval from a majority of the members,
but two of them-Judge George Hillyer
and Commissioner Lite Bloodworth-were
not at the meeting when the sanction
was given. They have endeavored 10 Sc
cure a reconsideration, but have failed.
The item over which a division has
arisen in the board amounts to 1886 for
building and grounds repairs" sum-
mer house was erected, terraces laid off
and flowers planted
Mr.. Bloodworth. in speaking of the af-
fair to-day, said:
Il cannot approve expenditures of the
citys money for identifying grounds
when there is such a scarcity of funds for
our broken machinery. I don't really
know how much of this 81 966 was spent
for this work. but | am sure nearly all
of it was. There have been some slight
permanent repairs to fhe buildings out
there, but as matter of fact the sta
ton shows little repairs outside of the
summer house on the knoll, the terraces
and the flowers.
Il tried to get an itemized statement
from the waterworks office of the eXpendi-
ture, but / was told by one of the Off
Gals that the accounts are kept in such
manner that the various items cannot
be ascertained.
Now, l am sure Col. Woodward had
the approval of the majority of the board
members before he spent the money, but
that does not constitute authority. /
think it is due members who object to
such expenditures that they be given a
chance 10 record their votes against it.
LAS long as am a member of the board
! will not approve such expenditures I'M
der the circumstances l will quit the
board first"

POPULIsT COMMITTEE MET.

Likely to Substitute stevenson's
Name for TOwne's.
Chicago, Aug. 9-The Populist National
Executive Committee held two sessions
here to-day. but contrary 10 expectations,
Senator Marion Butler of North Carolina,
the chairman Of the National Committee,
was not present, and no one seemed to
know whether he would come 10 Chicago
for the meeting.
Harry Tracy Of Texas was the only
other member of the committee who was
not present.
The committee discussed informally the
withdrawal OF Charles \. Towne, the
Populist candidate for Vice President. but
the members did not fix upon a date for
the calling together of the entire Ma
tional Committee. The Executive Com
mittee has no power to MI the vacancy.
This must be done by the National Com
mittee, and il is apparently expected that
it will meet before long and select Adlai
E. Stevenson as the Populst candidate
for Vice President
There seemed to be a good deal of APP
prenhension among the members of the
committee in regard 10 the attitude of
Senator Butler on the vice presidential
situation. There has been a strong rumor
TO the effect that the North Carolina Pop
ulist would take the bit between his teeth
and insist that a Populist be named for
Vice President on the Populst ticket.
1t is said that a number of the commit
tee take the other view of the situation
and believe Mr.. Bryan will be able to win
over Senator Butler in case the latter
takes an antagonistc stand regarding the
selection of Mr. Stevenson.
J. G. Johnson, chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Executive Committee. was
in conference for a short time with the
Populists.

Columbus Mill Men Have Rejected
Every PrOpOsitiOn.

Columbus, Ga. Aug IN. ]. Williams
of the National Board of Carpenters
Union, who came down from Atlanta to
adjust the difficulties between the car
penters and the contractors, has not sue
ceeded in his mission. He will return to
Atlanta tomorrow.
Mr.. Williams went before the mill men
and contractors this afternoon and made
the proposition that the men would re-
turn to work at once the mill carpenters
at ten hours per day and outside car
penters at nine hours per day. provided
that uniform nine-hour scale should go
into effect on Oct |.
The contractors had previously stated
that they intended to grant a nine-hour

tractors refused Williams proposition.
They would hire workmen on no other
arrangement. 1t is now a fight to the
finish between the contractors and their

four men. of the stranded British steam
ship Paestro were safely landed at Cape
Hatteras tonight by the life-savers from

seven feet of water in her hold and was
fast settling, her forward portion being
then nearly all under water.
She lies about twelve miles southeast of
Cape Hatteras lighthouse, and her posi-

can be done toward saving either the ship
or cargo, and both will prove a total loss.
The accident as before reported, was due
TO the unusually smoky weather which
