Letter to B. q. Howe.

Dear Sir: 1t takes 5000 gallons OIL
paint for the two big hotels at Coney
Observation-Disclosures and Oriental. They
are painted once in three years with
Devoe lead and zinc.
Why so often? Three reasons: (1)
sea air cuts paint; ~ sand in the wind
cuts paint; ~ hotels especially pleasure
hotels, want freshness and color as much
asprotection. Once in three years is often
enough and not too often to paint a
hotel on windy sand beach.
Flow long do you think lead and oil
would last therei One year. Is there
anything for you in this?
Yours truly,
20 F. ". DEvoE & Co.

appreciative audience on Wednesday
evening to hear the Boston Sextette
Club and Mary Howe LAWN. The club
gave choice program and the soloists
were frequently applauded. The Brat.

greeted and sang as sweetly as ever.
Her closing selection, the mad scene from
Lucia di Lammermoor was the most
dlthcult OF the evening, though her rendi-
ton OF the English selections, notably
Home, Sweet Home" was especially
hne. Vermont's prima donna is always

Representative TayIer Looks ia
Canal LeEialation at Coming Session

Representative TayIer Looks for
Canal Legislation at Coming Session.
Political affairs in Ohio. SO far as the re-
publican party is concerned. are in a state
OF serenity. which has not been eQualed for
many years, according to Representative
Robert w. Tayler of that state After
spending the day in Washington Mr. Tay-
Ter left This afternoon for his home in Lis
bon, where he will remain until next Tues
day, when he will come here for the ses-
sion.
As chairman OF elections committee No.
1 Mr.. Tayler attained prominence In the
last Congress because OF his vigorous and
successful fight against the seating of Rep
resentative-elect Roberts Of Utah. While
the present Congress will doubtless not be
without contests for certain seats, Mr.. Tay-
Ter does not expect that there will be any
case which will involve a principle outside
of election returns.
Mr.. Tayler believes with the majority of
his colleagues who have expressed their
views that start will be made on the
Nicaragua canal project at the coming ses-
sion, and also that a Pacific cable will be
provided for. He is decidedly in favor of
the principle OF reciprocity, but looks for no
change In the tariff laws.

AMONG THE WHISPERS.

Mrs. Carpenter and Mr.. Tallferrio. with
l6o points to their credit, led the east and
west. Several OF the hands were unusually
wen played. the development demonstrate
ing that the ladies are fully able TO cone
with the supporting card lead ana are net
above leading singletons when the situa-
ton justified.
Last Friday night Miss schmidt's class
gathered at the Marlborough rooms, nine
tables being I'm play, and the class OF play
was very creditable. Mr.. and Mrs. Fry
made the top score for the east and west
division. while Miss Schmidt and DR.
Brown had the best figures for the north
and south column.
The exclusive Saturday afternoons" at
the Marlborough have become very attrac-
tive to the ladies OF the club on account
OF the fine article of whist played by
everybody. The different teams IN the
club are practicing assiduously for the
winters campaign, and is expected that
a determined effort will be made 10 bring
back the cup captured by the Baltimore
team last spring.

being no applicants from this county. The
report Of Secretary White showed The to-
tai disbursements for the first quarter to

Contrary to expectations the recently
elected county commissioners did not take
the oath of Office yesterday, and subsequent
ly the board was not reorganfzed A caucus
Of the members of the new board was held
today and 1t is understood the delay in

be lively contests on for the two clerksnips

w. w. Welsh Is the chief clerk to the
present board, and 1t is understood that

Indication OF her pension claim.

Officials Not Inclined to Attach Niue
Importance to the Reports.

The State Department officials are not
inclined to attach much Importance to the
reported mistreatment of United States
Vice Consul Schilling at Zittau. Germany,
1t appears that Mr.. schilling is a German
by birth, and is not an American citizen
His consular Office does not therefore pro-
tect him from the operation OF local Ger
man laws and methods. II his consular
records are wantonly disturbed that might
receive attention. So far Ambassador
White has not reported upon this case
to the State Department and II is pre-
sumed that he will not until he has made
thorough investigation. Paul e. Schill-
ing was very recent appointee, his COM
mission being dated October o. last
