own buildings in order TO exhibit the ma
chinery. The occasion will be made the
most of by foreign nations to introduce
modern methods among the Japanese, who
are Just at the stage when they are ready
TO adopt new ideas. The competition will
be keen between the United States and
Great Britain.

NObIemen and Their Bids.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
The openly expressed desire of three
European noblemen to marry American
heiresses is creating some amusing COM
ment and speculation as to the identity of
ambitious foreigners of title. The gen.
tlemen have advertised anonymously. One
saws he is a German baron. He is an Off
Ger who says he is worth s1.000.00 and
wishes to marry an American woman with
not state his nationality, but says he is
twenty-seven years old, "of highest aris-
tocracy, good character and appearance
He would marry some woman of means
who must be identified with the best So
ciety I'm New York and must be without
prejudices." The third is a nobleman by
birth and an author by profession. These
advertisements went the round of a large
dinner party this week, and all present
declared they knew who one of the aspir-
ants 10 an American heiress is.

Cured the Headache, Anyway.
Washington Post.

Washington Post.
/ never did know what girls carry In all
those dangling boxes and TASKS and chate-
laine affairs that have now given way to
the omnipresent silver bag. but 1 heard
the other day of what a Seventeenth-street
girl carried in hers. A month or so ago
she attended a luncheon, and her next-seat
neighbor complained TO her Of a racking
headache.
Here" said the chatelaine girl, fishing
up a tiny bonbonniere and passing 1t TO
the sufferer under the table. Take two
of these headache pellets. They're the
best thing 1 know, and will make you as
good as new in five minutes. Nobody
will see you. Just slip them out and swal-
low them quick"
So the other girl felt under the table,
took out two of the small, smooth avoids,
popped them into her mouth, swallowed
them and soon her headache disappeared.
A fortnight later the two met again at
another luncheon:
"Madge," called the girl who had had
give Flo some of those headache pellets
that helped me so the other day"
Madge hShed up the little silver box and
passed it across the table.
Lets see what they are before Flo takes
Them" suggested the hostess. Madge opened
the box and gasped:
"Jennier' she cried. Did I give you the
pellets out Of this round box?"
YES" said Jennie, ut was that same
box"
Great Scott!'' said Madge. 81 had my
headache pellets in the square box. You
swallowed two of those lovely Mexican
opals Uncle Charley brought mel"

THE DRAMATIC CLUB PLAY.
The next play Of the Dramatic Club will
be given on the evening Of Shrove Tuesday,
Feb. II. The club is especially honored in
being able to present Mr.. Booth Tarking-
toms play "Margery's Kisses" and in hav-
ing his personal supervision in the rehear-
sails. This is the fourth time that Mr..
Harrington has furnished the play for
Dramatic Club performances. The first of
his plays. which ii presented, was The
Ruse," a comedy in three acts, then The
Prodigals," a comedy, which, by the way,
is the play that attracted Mr.. Mansield's
attention to Mr.. Harrington, and later
"Eloise de Marmantel," a play of the
French revolution. "Margery's Kisses
was written for a neN York magazine
| called John O'Dreams and published in il
anonymously in 1894. although the ~illustra-
tions, which are beautiful. were signed by
Mr.. Harrington. 1t was written first as a
literary play, out ike everything MT. Iark-
ington has written was so intensely drama
tic that he was persuaded TO adapt it for
use on the stage. 1t is Of one act. The
scene, which is at a ball given in Phila-
delphia ten days before the evacuation of
the British troops, is remarkably condensed
and rich in incident. The action takes place
in a garden off the ballroom, where during
the whole scene the minuet is being
danced. The cast is an exceptionally good
one.

DOWIE HAS SETTLED.
Probably Has Paid Stevenson $3.50,
900 to Avoid n Receivership.

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-On the announcement
in court to-day by the counse in the
Dowie-Stephenson suit for receivership Of
the Zion lace industry that an agreement
had been reached by the parties to the
suit out of court, Judge Tuley dismissed
the suit and announced that Elmer Wash
burn. whom he had named as receiver.
would not be appointed. Attorneys for
both sides refused TO announce the basis
of settlement, but 1t is supposed that the
full amount claimed by Samuel Stephen
son, about $3.50, 900, Is close to the amount
agreed upon.
Attorney Packard, for DIR" John Alex
ander Dowie, said: THE fact that Judge
Tuley, in his decision, exonerated DIR.
Dowie from charges of fraud led to the
settlement. We did not deny that money
was due Stephenson, but we fought the
case because the charges made reflected
upon Dr. Dowie."

A Woman as Street Contractor

Philadelphia Telegraph.
The sidewalks of the Eighteenth ward of
Rochester, n. Y, are not numbered with
frozen snow and slush and mud in accord
with the weather and negligence of man.
Instead, they are kept clean as can be
and the condition tells the story of what
a woman can do.
This woman made n bid for the contract
to keep the sidewalks clean during the
three winter months for $500 less than any
other specification. The Council was a
little shy of the terms. But she offered
gilt-edged securities TO make the work as
good as her bid-and she got the job.
OF course a protest was launched
against the usual deterioration i'm remu-
n~eration when a woman does the work
of a man. But the woman in this case
hires men to shovel and sweep at the
same price that her predecessor paid. and
she's making a fair p~roft-with no perqui-
sites for herself or anybody else, on a
dark side.
