The calico social of the Railway Y. NJ
C. A. on Thursday evening was a very
pleasant affair, and was attended by
about 200 members and friends of the
association. Each guest was invited to
wear a piece of calico of some kind or
other, and in failure to comply with the.
request fine was imposed of cent per
foot for as many feet as the guests were
tall. An impromptu program was en-
joyed early in the evening, being com
posed of piano solos by Misses Diiley
and Frances Mooney and vocal selec-
tons by Mr.. Gordon Allen and Mrs. A.
L. Bryant. One of the features of the
evening was the auctioneering of calico
aprons and busting caps, made by the
members of the auxiliary. under whose
auspices the social evening was given.
President n. L. Stuntz, OF the associa-
ton, acted as auctioneer. The ladies'
realized about SIS from the Gale of the
calico garments and confectionery and
collection of fines. A little confusion.
caused by some OF the smaller boys liz
the audience during the rendition of the
program, has caused Secretary FEELING
ham to announce decision that here
after. at the weekly entertainments an6
social gatherings OF the association, nc
children will be admitted unless ac-
companied by their parents.

Another test of the presidents loy- in the case of Commissioner Roden- burg of the civil service commission. It will be recalled that Mir Rodenburg was appointed to the commission af- ter the adjournment of the last con- gress, which will necessitate the pre- sentation of his name to the senate for confirmation at this session. Mir Rodenburg was not civil service re- former when he was appointed by the late president,an his appointment was concession to the spoilsmen of the republican party who desired q friend at court. The appointment was de- plored by many republicans at the time, who believed that however much the president might see fit to restrict the authority of the commission, the commission itself ought to oe kept free from anyone not in entire sympathy with the purpose for which it was ere ated. Since his appointment MT Ro- denburg has not demonstrated any particular hostility, although the com mission has permitted some wide de- viations from the spirit of the law, and in favor of the spoilsmen. Mir Rodenburg has a powerful republican faction back of him, and it will re- quire the utmost courage for :lfe pres ident to signify a desire for his res ignatiOn.

There are rumors afioat in Washing
 ton. says correspondent, that the democrats will invite Admiral Schley to head the next presidential ticket, but they are regarded as mere rumors by all of the democrats I have met in Washington. As a matter of fact, no one knows what Admiral Scnley's pol itics are, nor if he is in sympathy with any of the traditions of the party be yond what may be inferred from the fact that he is Marylander. It is even intimated that the rumors have been started to hurt Sch1ey, as 1t is well know that the Insignificant little presidential bee that got into Admiral Dewey's bonnet injured him. rFbe in dications are that Admiral Schley has too much good sense to even listen to the siren voice of political ambition.

 When Rear Admiral Crowinslield retires from the head of the bureau of navigation he will also retire from his rear admiralty and become '.nce more simple captain. His appointment to the European station will necessitate his promotion to the rank of admiral by the president and the confirmation of his appointment by the senate. It is by no means impossible that he will encounter too many friends of Admiral Schley ill the senate to permit of con firmation, in which case he will be compelled to take ship ill the squad ron of some other officer to whom lie would be subordinate or to apply for his retirement.

THE HISTORY OF HUNTING.


 The recent newly awakened interest in the life and times of King Alfred, due to the celebration of the thou santh anniversary of his death and the placing of statue at his birthplace, has resulted in some interesting infor- nation on the evolution of the sports man. One may see, by reviewing the customs and conditions of Alfred's times, how it was that hunting came to be regarded as the noblest of all amusements. It was absolutely ne- cessary to the safety and welfare of the people that the wolves, bears, wild boars and other dangerous animals which then roamed over England, should be eXterminated. and, of course, the king and his knights, as the brav- est and best armed of the fighting pop ulation, were setting a good example and doing good service in their hunt ing parties. These conditions contin- ued for some hundreds of years and the nobility of the sport of hunting be came firmly established and hedged about with many traditions as to the proper method of killing the game. The persistence of traditions in Eng AdI1u iS PlONClOii1, ttlO lIChSS. uILSI luc whole country became as safe as q barnyard, people continued to suppose that there was something essentially courageous and fine in deer stalking and grouse shooting.
 The question now confronted by the intelligent American citizen is this; whether it is necessary for q new coun- try to take over the ideas and conven- tions of it's parent on this subject Are We to consider a man q sportsman be- cause he kills rabbits and pigeons, as his father killed bears and partners? Is the man who takes his sport with rod and gun any more more manly or brave than the one who arms himself with a camera or a microscops? The Englishman would probably say yes, because he was brought up to believe so.
 The fact seems to be. however, that mere ability to go popping about with a gun does not constitute sportsman ship. The old-time huntsman, en- countering a stag at bay with the primitive weapons of his day, certainly did need to be brave; his modern proto- type. armed with repeating rife, is generally safe; the animal is the one who needs courage. The idea that there is some peculiar manliness in shooting harmless animals is, let Us hope, vanishing illusion.

Editor Kenoe of the New Britain i

Editor Kehoe of the New Britain In dependent takes over q column of his paper to explain why he seconded the nomination of Editor Vance last week at the convention in New Britain, and also why he should be elected. It seems to be a case of two evils with Editor Kehoe and he chose the least, in his opinion. There is one thing he should remember, however, for he has cause to remember it, and that is that Webster is q republican, and Vance is a democrat only when he thinks the party thinks as he thinks. Editor Ke- hoe should get at least space rates for that article.

his creel open beside him. He had captured four or five fish and put them in the basket, when suddenly an eight-pound projectile fell into the creel. This man hasn't been fishing since nor have his neighbors, as it seems too dangerous an occupa- tion.
 The storekeepers seem to have about as much trouble as anybody. Naturally these big explosions of dynamite make a great concussion and about every fourth time 30- ton mass is smashed up a Rockhill storekeeper loses whole shelf of crockery, jared off by the tremor which has shaken the earth around there Housewifes are afflicted in much the same way.
 The company used to have a whistle blown when they were about to set off a blast, but they have given that up. The whistle used to be a good warning and whenever the farmers heard it they would hustle to shelter. The horses took care of themselves as best they could and there has been more than one crooked furrow made across the field as the animals started on gallop to get out of the way of jagged cannon ball.
 Now, however, the farmers have agreed that this must stop. They have come down to the county seat and secured preliminary injunction restraining the company from scat tering more projectiles over the countryside. There is to be hearing soon and it is then hoped that more of the residents up there can be in- duced to tell of the things that have happened to them when explosions have been the order of the day.

Shortly before Dunne had written his "Alone in Cuby,' in which he had made Doo- ley portray Roosevelt as writing q sto- ry of the Cuban war, as if he had fought it all by himself. When Colo nel Roosevelt met Dunne he said, "Ry Godfrey, MT Dunne, I would rather meet you than any man in this hall.

which is doubtless the most curious cemetery in the world.
 The founding of the cemetery came about. in 1888, when several of the horses met their deaths by fire. Among the number was the ill-fated champion yearling lilly, Norlaine. As Norlaine was a champion and much thought of at Palo Alto, the most beautiful spot on the farm was se- lected for her burial place.
 One by one new graves appeared The attention of Mrs. Stanford was attracted by the mounds, and on in quiry she learned that 1t was the burial place of horses that had made Palo Alto great.
 At that time there was nothing to show what horses were buried there Mrs. Stanford remarked that such noted horses should have tablets placed on their graves, showing their names, dates of birth, death and rec ords, and immediately issued instruc- tions. She had a monument erected in memory of the great Electioneer, the son of Rysdyk's Hambletonian and Green Mountain Maid. The plot was then heightened and surrounded by Q neat iron. rail fence, flowers and shrubs were planted, and in the center of the horse graveyard was placed the. mon- ument to the greatest of sires.
 The inscription on the monument of Electioneer reads: .'To the memory of Electioneer, 125. Foaled May, 1868. Died December 3, 1890. By Rysdyk's Hambletonian. Dam, Green Mountain Maid.n

SHOWERS OF STEEL.
Pennsylvania Farmers Tell Strange
 Tale of Woe.
Company Is Breaking Up a Lot of Gir- ders with Dynamite, Which Is Bad for Farming and Not
 Good for Fishing.

Up in Rockhill township, Bucks county, Pa, the farmers have had troubles of their own of late. Until B week ago they couldn't safely go out in their fields to till the soil and gather the crops without first talk ing out an accident insurance policy. The trouble all lay with the Rock hill Industrial company, which took 30-ton pieces of old steel from the big steel construction companies and blasted them all up into little bits, so that they could be worked up over again. The industrial com pany made a fine profit on the jobs, although they lost a good many pounds of metal every time they fired blast.
 They put a lot of dynamite in the middle of one of these big chunks of steel, made electrical connections so that the explosive could be fired from safe distance and then low cred the metal into a deep pit. The next step was to get all of the work men safely barricaded. Then the button was pressed and the dynamite went off.
 So did the steel, and it rained pieces of metal weighing from four ounces up to 22 pounds all over the country within half-mile radius. When a farmer was blowing and there was an explosion and ten pound piece of cold steel dropped into the ground alongside of his blow he didn't appreciate the dis turbance.
 The farmers of Rockhill occasion- ally take half a day off and go fish, ing-or rather they used to do so. They have stopped for awhile. One man was sitting quietly enough along Three-Mile run one day with

 Phil May, the cartoonist of London Punch, has won a reputation in the art world of London similar to that en- joyed by Maurice Barrymore in Amer ican cities before his mind failed. MT. Mays latest exploit was in unique rebulxe administered to rich and obtrusve woman at D dinner party. The artist had exquisitely illustrated menu card for a souvenir, which, be- ing passed around the table, fell into the hands of the woman mentioned a stranger to him. First the woman tried to buy the drawing. This effort being ignored, she sent a 50-pound note to Mir. May by waiter with an order for duplicate. The artist then sat down and drew on the back of ths note a caricature of her that was as hideous as it was truthful. The note thus decorated he sent back to the woman, who shortly afterward left the table.
 This particular 5c-pound note is now out of circulation, both as legal tender and as work nf art

TABLE AND KITCHEN NOTES

All stone fruits are considered to be injurious for those who suffer from the liver.
 Onion salt is now to be had the same as celery salt in cans or bottles for f1avoring purposes.
 Bread pans should never be heated before putting in the bread or the loaf will have a raw, doughy taste when baked.
 Croquettes will not stick to the wires if the frying basket is dipped into the hot fat before the cro- quettes are put in.
 When making corn bread the result is likely to be more satisfactory if the meal is scalded before adding the other ingredients.
 Cream vegetable soups should be accompanied with squares of toasted bread, oyster and clam soups with pickles and crackers.
 Maple sugar cake is delicious va riety of layer cake and is made after these directions: Beat together 1A cupfuls of finely shaved maple sugar, one egg and one-third cupful of but ter; add one cupful of sour milk, one half teaspoonful of soda and two scant cupfuls of milk; bake in layer tins. The filling is made by cooking one-half pound of maple sugar and one-half cupful of water until the sirup hardens in water; remove from the fire and pour slowly over one egg, beating constantly; whens the mixture is nearly cold spread on the cake layers.
