incident caused the audience of the street
preachers to swell considerably.

A RnttIcsnake's Wisdom.

The writer of this rode bronchos and
punched cattle on the ranges of Mon
tana and Wyoming twenty years ago
and had ample opportunity to study
the habits of rattlesnakes. He knows
how they went into their holes then,
and 1t is doubtful II any Improvement
has since been made In their method.
They start in head first, and one would
promptly come to the conclusion that
they reach the bottom of their holes in
this manner, but Mr.. Snake is too willy
to keep his head where he cannot have
an eye on the rest of his body; there
fore as soon as he enters the hole few
inches he makes n half turn which
brings his head TO the entrance again
and then permits the remainder of his
length to glide down out of sight-a
very simple performance, you will see.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

The burning of sulphur candle in a
room infested with pests of any kind
will relieve you of them in short time.
Glasses which have been used for
milk should be washed first in cold wa
ter and then in hot soapsuds. This will
make them clear and shining.
Wilted or dropping flowers may be
revived by giving them quick plunge
into moderately hot water in which a
few drops of ammonia have been
poured.
Never put soda in the water in which
you wash china that has any gliding
on it. Soda Injuries the gliding. In
stead use soap, which answers just as
well and has no i'll effects.
In washing cut glass only modeE
ately hot water should be used on ac-
count Of the glass being of varying
thickness, which causes the dishes to
expand unevenly If subjected to ex.
cessive changes of temperature.

MR., CORAY'S REPLY.

Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
Committee:
Replying to your letter advising me
of my selection as the candidate of the
Democratic party Of Pennsylvania for
the office OF state treasurer, l desire
in accepting the nomination to say,
appreciate the trust you have reposed
in me. To justify that confidence and
to carry into effect the principles enun-
ciated in your platform, SO far as they
relate to the Office of state treasurer,
will be my single purpose il elected.
l also wish to express the honor which
/ feel in being associated on the ticket
with so pure and able jurst as Judge
Yerkes, whose election at this time, for
obvious reasons, is matter of great
importance.
In this connection it may not be in
appropriate to make some allusion to
the issues Of the campaign. During
the first Ave months OF the present
year, the people of Pennsylvania were
permitted to witness the unfolding of
the most ingeniously devised and gi-
gantic scheme Of public plunder ever
attempted in any single session of the
state legislature. The scheme involved
the purchase OF the organization of that
body. 1t involved the purchase Of a
seat in the United States senate 1t
involved the changing OF the libel laws
for the purpose Of muzzlng the public
press. II involved the destruction of
popular government In cities of the first
class. 1t involved laying all the real
estate OF the great City of Philadelphia
under tribute to the machine. Finally,
1t involved reimbursement to the ma
chine and its henchmen for all the
time and trouble incurred by them
selves out of the assets of the com
monwealth-that Is to say the tax
payers of the state were to be made
to pay the expenses of their own humil-
iation and robbery. 1t was in the
spirit of resistance to this conspiracy
that fusion had its birth; the decent
Democrats and decent Republicans in
the legislature laying aside all ques-
tions of party policy upon which honest
men may honestly differ, fought
shoulder to shoulder for the honor of
the commonwealth and the protectio u
Of its taxpayers. In that battle you.

THE PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW.

1t is a significant fact, as noted by
Democratic journals of the state, that
in the present campaign the people
seem to be doing their own thinking.
For many years they have observed
the suggestive earnestness of the Quay
combine when a state treasurer is to
be elected They have been led to be-
lieve that there is something which
they ought to know, which has been
kept from them, and they have about
made up their minds that they will
solve this great mystery Senator
Penrose, in recent elaborate speech,
tried to make it appear that the public
records of the treasury vindicated Re-
publican management. He claimed
that there was no evidence of wrong
doing, etc. All this may be true, but
every one knows that while the official
statements alluded to give nothing
away that hurts anybody, the story Is
not thus told in full.
~ mere VI anu
expenditures is not what is wanted. 1t
is the between-times doings that the
taxpayers are after. For instance, at
one period recently, the treasury had
on hand sS,OOo,OO0 in cash. Think of
the possibilities of self enrichment
herein embodied The banks only pay
the state two per cent. interest. How
much more is pad-somebody else
and to what extent is the tempting
opportunity for illegal and dangerous
speculation utilized? Further, an hon
est treasurer can prevent the looting
of the public chest by legislative raid
ers in many ways. Then the power
of control over those interested in the
management Of the favored banking
institutions has been Systematically
used to raise large campaign and cor
ruption funds in aid of the machine
and it's candidates.
The treasury, indeed has been the
citadel of the ring for a generation and
more. Such an inquisitive and fear
less Investigator as Mr.. Coray, might
find out many queer things and the
people seem to be determined to give
this intrepid foe of the machine
chance to root" at will; to turn on
the light and show up the whole busi-
moss. This spirit Of curiosity will be
turned to good account at the polls
next week There is no partisan issue
at stake 1t is a plain question Of
open and honest management of the
public finances against the odious and
costly method of the long entrenched
ring. There surely will be a great vote
this year for this practical reform can
didate for state treasurer.

AN ECCENTRIC DINER.
The Tall story That In Told of a Pa
risian Gourmet.

risian Gourmet.
Paris Is par excellence the city of
gourmets and cranks, and many a
story concerning them has added to the
gayety of the nations. Here is one
French head waiter: One of the regu-
lar customers of n famous Parisian
restaurant used to be a short, thin,
shy and shabbily dressed man whose
name no one knew, but who gave out
that he was a butter dealer, for which
reason he was called the butter man at
the restaurant in question.
He ate next to nothing. but his soup
tureen, filled with soup specially pre-
pared for him, was always put before
him. He took few spoonfuls and
had 1t taken away. Next came
whole flllet of beef, from which he
cut the tniest slice. Then followed
four quais or large chicken. of which
he ate one mouthful together with
two lettuce leaves and one radish. His
dessert was four grapes-never a sim
gle one more--and cup of coffee. A
bottle of the best claret and another
of the best champagne were served
with the repast, but he only wetted
his lips with drop from them and let
them go. He took two of these meals
n day, and the price for each meal was
100 francs.
But this was not all. Every time
the butter man got up from his ex-
traordinary meal he gave 40 francs to
the head waiter, who put his food on
his plate, since the guest did not like
to handle spoons or dishes; 20 francs
to the waiter, 10 francs to the woman
cashier and 5 francs to the porter.
Thus each meal came to 200 francs.
The head waiter Of the restaurant of
ten did slight errands for him, buying
his cigars, etc, and took them to the
Grand hotel, where the butter man
lived. The little old man would then
open the drawer of a wardrobe filed
with heaps of bank notes of from 100
francs to 600 francs In value and
with an enormous mass of goldpieces
PAY yourself" said the owner, and
the head waiter did so, putting the
bills before his patron, who never
deigned to look at them.
One day the mysterious millionaire
went away and was never seen again.

When Grace Was Said.

A Barnard college girl tells in the

hold where grace was said at the table
semioccasionally. Her curiosity got
the better of her. and she asked the
mistress Of the house why they didn't
observe the rite regularly. "Why,'
said the lady with some surprise, 1--WE
say grace only when we have reason
to be thankful. We never dream of
giving thanks when we have only
roast beef or beefsteak or some simple

say grace, for it's worth while"

most champions of the rights Of the

most champions of the rights Of the
people
The results Of the struggle there
waged are now matters of history.
The public press is still free to expose
the schemes of the corruptionists, and
is improving the opportunity. The
states subfiuvial deposits of coal have
not changed ownership. The supreme
court has removed the tax ripping club
the machine held over the City of
Philadelphia. Popular government,
however, is suspended in our cities of
the second class. Trolley franchises
worth millions Of dollars recently
owned by the state now repose in the
pockets of the machine leaders-suffi-
cient in value to pay all the expenses
OF all the larceny committed; and to-
gother with the many smaller grabs,
variously disguised, leave a handsome
margin of profit to the machine for
its sessions work.
The harmonious action Of the Union
and Democratic parties concentrates
the heretofore divided opposition which
has hindered effective protest being
made against the machine at the polls.
The spirit and purpose expressed in the
parties are identical. They speak for
honest government. The machine
platform endorses all the plundering
acts committed by the legislature.
The issue is thus squarely drawn. The
struggle is transferred from the halls
Of the legislature to the people. This
10 the court Of last resort. Victory for
the machine would inevitably be con-
strued as an endorsement of all the
iniquities of which it has been guilty.
This election will have an important
bearing upon the contest for governor
and the legislature next year. If the
machine is entrenched when the legis-
lature of 1903 convenes, the largest
army of spoilsmen that ever assembled
at Harrisburg will be on hand clamor-
ing for the flesh pots. Another United
States senator is to be elected at that
time, and the machine has no other
assets with which to pay for services
rendered its candidates, than those
they get out of the commonwealth.
The kind of government we have in
Pennsylvania comes high, but the peo-
pie can have it indefinitely If they are
willing to vote for it, and pay for it.
1t is inconceivable, however, that they
will do this any longer, and l am
confident the day of deliverance is at
hand.
Recognizing that the Democratic
party Of Pennsylvania by their plat
form adopted August Is, 1901, have
made these questions the issue of the
present campaign for the purpose Of
overthrowing the corrupt ring which
now manages public affairs, have no
hesitation in accepting the nomination
Of your party upon that platform.
Very truly yours,
