BALLOT BOX STUFFING IN
PENNSYLVANIA.

The Baltimore SIN, in a recent issue
discussing the crooked work Of the Re
publican party in Pennsylvania, says:
Philadelphia politicians according to
the testimony of some of the most trust
worthy and respected residents Of the
Quaker City, are past grand masters in
the art of padding election returns.
Ordinarily the work Of the artists who
manipulate the ballot boxes is done
with -uch skill and subtlety that even
the victims of the fraud cannot with

lous jugglers who furnish majortes to
order Judging by the comments of
some of the Philadelphia newspapers
the work of the ballot magicians was
not up to the usual standard this year
1t was the desire of the Republican
managers to- pile up an immense ma
jority in the Quaker City to offset the
gains which ii was thought the Demo-
cratic ticket might.make in other parts

How to Whiten and Prepare
Handsome .Centerpieces
and Doylies for Xmas.
Written tor the Citizen. I

a young housekeeper who is
going TO entertain relatives and
some friends and Schoolmates of
her younger sister, home from
boarding school, desires to know
the best method of whitening up
some very handsome old embroid-
cred centerpieceS given to her by
her mother, at the same time she
told her she doubted if she could
ever get them white again as they
had been laid away SO long that
they became very yellow, but
would be beautiful if she could
utilize them. You can try a sim
pie method which | have seen sue
cessful in restoring old yellow
laces and French embroideries,
especiallythe yellow embroideries.
First, throw them into a bucket
of cold rain water and let them
soak a half day. then put them in
second water, have it tepid,
and add a tablespoonful of boraS
and squeeze the embroidered
pieces out in this, then leave the
to soak again. You will then
make a good hot rain water suds,
dissolve two tablespoonful Of
pearline into it and rub out quick
ly with your hands; rinse in two
clear, warm waters, adding IA lit
tie bluing to the last. The EN-
broidery must be ironed Oh the
wrong side with blankets or d
thickness under it to make the
embroidery stand out handsomely
Never wash such pieces with othel
clothing, or never boil them
You will be surprised to see wha
lovely pieces it makes.

The Woman of Ability.

Woe to the woman who has ability

In which woman's work is developing
and such multiplying demands upon

strength that the capable woman is con-
stanlly pursued by social and puDllc
claims and does not always escape with
her life. The story is repeated every
day. Mrs. Blank begins by being elect

ALL but the process goes on cumulauvely
till suddenly one day she finds herself
staggering under a burden entirely too
large for her drained strength. says
writer in Harper's Bazaar.
Why has not Mrs. Blank the courage
to stop before the breaking pointf Why,
because she can drive two horses well,
must she take four-in-hand and then
go on to drive six. eight and ten till she
feels as if her life were a three ringed

that? There is point where the ac-
ceptance of further work and RESPONSE

1t is undoubtedly good thing for most

Success For Democracy.

The prominent and able Brook
Ign Democrat, Mr.. Edward NJ.
Shepard, finds in the election re-
turns much to encourage the De-
mocracy. He believes that it was
only President RooSevelt's de
nunciation of monopolies which
saved the West to the Republi-
cans-which checked the general
Western movement toward Tariff
Reform and Democracy. He af-
firms that sane and conservative
course on the part of the Demo
Gratis may swing New England
into the Democratic column. The
vagaries of Tom johnson in Ohio
and the coal plank of Hill in New
York were obstacles in the way of
the Democracy, yet in spite of the
Hill folly it was a narrow escape
for Odell. Mr.. Shepard strongly
maintains that by sobriety In its
platforms and high character in
its candidates the Democratic
party may make its success prob
able in the next Presidential cleo
tion.-Philadelphia Record.

JUDGE STAKE DEAD.
End Of a Successful Career on
the Bench and in Public Life
Sketch Of His Life.

Hon. Edward Stake. associate
Judge of the Fourth Judicial Cir
cult of Maryland, died in his
apartments on South Potomac
street, HagerStown, suddenly at
$40 O'Clock Sunday night of heart
disease. His death was a great
shock to the community. although
his condition the last few days
had been very serious.
Edward Stake was born in Will
Transport, Md, about SO years
ago. He was a son of the late
Edward Greene Williams Stake,
for many years cashier of the Will
Transport National Bank. Ed
ward Stake was educated at the
public schools and at the College
of st. James, and although very
young at the beginning of the
war went into the Federal army.
He entered the law Office of the
late Judge Syester, who was his
cousin, i'll Hagerstown, i'll 1896 as
a student. Two years later he
was admitted to the bar, and for
a quarter of century prior to his
elevation to the bench was en-.
gagged in the active pursuit of his
profession, most of the time in
partnership with the late Lewis
G, Smith, who was Speaker OF the
House of Delegates in 1873 For
a short time Mr. Stake was School
Examiner Of aShiugt0u county.
In 1919 he was nominated on
the Republican ticket for States
Attorney and was elected, In
1852 he was "a candidate tor as
>ociaie Judge against his former
preceptor, Judge Syrstcr, one Of
the strongest Democrats in the
circuit. and WIS defeated by Il
majority of but > votes. in IA total
of Is, 900. In 1850 he WAS placed
on the Republican ticket for the
House of Delegates and was the
only one of the four Repu blican
candidates elected. LII 1857 he
was nominated as a candidate for
the State Senate. and was this
time elected 10y the largest ma
iority Of any candidate on the
ticket. In the sessions of the
General Assembly from 1886 to
1890 he was regarded throughout
the State as one of the most con
SpicuouS and bic members of that
body.
In 1891, after the vacancy
caused by the death of Judge
Syester, he was again nominated
on the Republican ticket for as.
Sociate judge of the Fourth Judi
cial circuit, against Judge H. kyd
Douglas, the Democratic candi-
date, who had been appointed to
the bench by Governor Brown to
fill the vacancy. At the election
in November of that year he was
elected. His term would have
expired in 1906.
Judge Stake never married.
Surviving are three brothers and
three sisters john b. Stake, Will
liam Stake, of Washington coun-
ty; Melchoir Stake, of Cumber.
land; Mrs. Joseph l.. Meter, Mrs.
G. ID. Dennis and Miss Mary E.

Cuins ala Uuors.

Coins fresh from ,hr mint have no
smell. but after i!cy have been in circu-
lation Gov Il short time they emit a char
acteHi>tc odor. Why is this:
Metals do not give forth an odor Of
themselves or. at any rate. not one that
can be detected in the state in which we
generally handle them. The smell, as Il
matter of fact, is due to the chemical ac-
tion Of the acids that exude from our
hands Take Il bronze coin. clean it and
lay it on clean surface in the air; it will
emit no smell. Handle it for minute OF
so, and you will detect the familiar odor
of pennies and half pennies. Silver has
a different odor from copper after han
ding.
Aluminium, tin and zinc will emit the
same kind of smell when rubbed with the
hand, but this is not like the smell of
bronze or copper, which, again, are alike.

Wants Divorce From MolineuS

Mrs. Roland b. Molineux. wife
of the man who was acquitted of
murder in New York last week. is
i'll Sioux Falls, South Dakota, for
the purpose of obtaining a divorce
She authorizes the statement that
this is the object of her presence
there. Mrs. Molineux says she
has no reason for wishing to keep
the object of her going a secret,
and in fact wishes the world to
know why she has taken up her
residence in South Dakota. That
she is in earnest is shown by the
fact that recently she engaged the
services of the law firm of Kit
fridge, Winans & Scott, of Sioux
Falls, to conduct her divorce case.

The PrevIous ouestIon.

Old Senator Nesmith Of Oregon. one
OF the first settlers Of the state, used
to tell this story: At the time when
Oregon was admitted as a state and
the first legislature of the state met
Nesmith. who was a member, possess
ed himself Of a copy Of a book on par
liRmentary procedure. This work,
which was at the time probably the
only one of its sort west Of the Mis-
sisslppi. he studied diligently and by
the time of the first session was well
up in the rules of debate.
At the first meeting Of the new leg
islature a motion was introduced and
speedily carried. but IN the second
measure II dispute arose, and for three
days the state legislators wrangled
aud debated.
Finally. on the third day, Nesmith,
who bad watched the proceedings
without even opening his mouth. de-
clded it was time to use a piece Of bis
parliamentary procedure. so he rose
and moved the previous question"
There was u moment of silence fol.
lowing this motion. and then amid 9
shout OF dcrislon the speaker cried:
sit down. you fool! We passed the
previous question three days ago!"

Protestations nvaiied nothing. The
money was not produced. and young
Bliss was arrested. The conclusion
was reached TINT he must have met
and passed the money to a confederate.
Old Merely was satisfied that the
young man had yielded to temptation,
and the cashier was particularly bitter
against him. Before the day OF trial
came there appeared to be but one per
son In Grafton who doubted his guilt.
That was old Morely's daughter.
Their acquaintance had not gone be-
yond admiration on his side and esteem

sterling qualities and was persistent IN
