The adjournment of Congress was fol-
lowed by very rapid exodus of Con-
gressnler. Engal dement's to make Fourth
of July speeches took many OF them
away, but anxiety to get in touch with
the voters at home and expiain this and
that measure and their votes thereon is
the Chief reason why few of them lin
gered. The political pot in Washington,
however, never ceases its boiling, and
this year the fire under it viii be kept es-
pecially hot. The congressional elections
next Noyember are looked upon as a
sort of barometer that will indicate what
kind OF Political weather is likely to pre-
vail in 1904. Both of the congressional
campaign committees will have headquar-
tiers in Washington, and there viii be
many more Congressman AZ town during
the summer months this year than usual
All OF the leaders will make periodical
visits and the lesser lights will drop in

scopes and to get their confidence on
straight again.
Evidently the administration officials
anticipate report that clear title car

The Secretary of State has commenced
negotiations with Mr.. Concha. Colombian
minister, for treaty under which the
United States will complete and occupy
the Panama waterway. The treaty will
follow closely the lines of the protocol or
preliminary arrangement and will be val
ueless unless the Attorney General finds
that clear title can be obtained from
the new Panama company. Mr.. KnSx
is expected to start for PFris about
the first of August. A recent decision in
the French courts favorable to the Pam
ANA company, involving a question of rs
title, brought by stakeholder in the old
company, has gone far toward removing
what little doubt has existed of the abil-
ity of the new company to deliver clear
title.

Miss Hattie Brown, aged rs, formerly
Of Trempealeau, from which place she
went to La Crosse some time ago, has
been sent to the Mendoza asylum for the
insane after four different attempts to
commit suicide. The~frst time anything
wrong was discovered was a couple OF

throat, but was frustrated and attempted
to slay her sayiors. A short time later
she tried the carbolic acid route, but
was discovered again. Then she rushed
down through town and attempted TO lind
relief in the deep Mississippi river, but
was caught while making ready to leap
into the cool, inviting waters. Failing
in this. she again got hold If butcher

LADIES AT DINNER.
From the Position of Carver TO the
Principal Seat.

From the Position of Carver TO the
Principal Seat.
The presence Of ladies at dinner was
brought about by necessity more than
by the gallantry due to their sex.
Servers and henchmen were superseded
by lady carvers. who worked at a side
table. In Elizabethan times at private
dinners II became usual TO place the
principal Joints and grand pieces at
the upper end OF the table. above the
salt. so the chief guests could see the
Joints and secure choice helDings. we
have something Of this kind in the haD'
# which prevails ut restaurants of first
showing the game, poultry, etc, to the
diners before carving. The place which
cam, to the fair sex from necessity was
soon claimed by them as their right.
and they passed from the menial posi-
tion of carver to the occupiers Of the
principal seat. The lady had helpers
who deemed it an honor to serve her
In their turn.
In this duty of semiprofessional cary-
er lies one of the first causes or the
paper frllls for legs Of mutton, etc, for
it was used in every case where the op-
orator had to grasp some tangible part
of the Joint with the left hand. In 1853
a grand dame suggested that 1t would
appear more comely and decent to use
q fork" this in spite Of existing pref
udice.
Itwas Mt this time, too, that travellers
from Holland introduced into England
the fashion of seating men and women
alternately. the adoption Of which put
an end to lady caryers. Then the au-
thor of THE Cooks Oracle" suggested
that joints and large birds should be
carved before they came to table, thus
starting the now prevailing fashion OF
carving at the side table.
