NOVEL FISH DINNER.
The Hostess Wore Wonderful Fish
Scale Gown.

Miss Elizabeth Tyree, leading wo-
man of THE Earl of Pawtucket'' COM
pany, gave her fish dinner the other
night at her apartments in New York.
There were twelve guests
Everything from the miniature lake
in the middle of the table to the won
drous fish scale gown worn by the
hostess suggested the realm of the
mermaids, says the New York World.
The lake was inhabited by scores OF
hungry goldfish and by miniature
sharks, whales and Holsters of wood.
In the mouths of the latter were pearl
pins, for which the men fished. The
souvenirs for the women were coral
ornaments. The menu was printed on
the mainsails of tiny yachts, which
flew the flag of the New York Yacht
club in the miniature lake
The gown worn by Miss Tyree was
of changeable green silk, covered with
thousands of opalescent scales. 1t is
said to have cost $780,

Caught in the Act.
Exchange.

A woman suspected that her hus-
band was in the habit of kissing the
servant girl, and resolved to detect
him in the act On Saturday night she
saw him pass quietly into the kitchen.
The servant girl was out and the
kitchen was dark. The jealous wife
took few matches in her hand. and
hastily placing a shawl over her head,
as the girl often did, entered the back
door, and Immediately she was seized
and kissed and embraced in an ardent
manner. With heart almost bursting
the wife prepared to administer a ter
rible rebuke to the faithless spouse.
and, tearing herself away from his
fond embrace, she struck a match and
stood face to face with-the gardener!

President Roosevelt tells the Utah Re-
publicans what he thinks of the proposed
election of Reed Smoot to the United
States senate. Like all his public ut
terances there is no misunderstanding
the meaning in the present instance. The
president sends a warning to the Repub-
icans of Utah, declaring that the cleo
ton of an apostle would work great
hardship to the state. 1t would
lead to harm and bitter contention, and
would unquestionably be misfortune to
those who are interested in all that goes
to make the state of Utah prosperous
and great President Roosevelt expresses
his confidence in the majority members of
the Utah legislature, and feels sure that
they understand the gravity OF. the stu
alton.
President Roosevelt goes firmly on re-
cord as opposing the election of a Nor
mon apostle to the senate. "a.
Smoot declines to withdraw as candi-
date and as the legislature is composed
largely of representatives of the Nor
mon church there can be no doubt of his
election.

The contention that with the present
primary law people did not turn out to
vote, will not hold good under the search
light of an investigation. At least in
Blue Earth county it can be said that
the vote cast at the primaries in Sep
TENDER was equally as heavy as that cast
at primaries where the old system of
electing delegates to party conventions
was in vogue. The. Free Press will ven
ture the assertion that the same proved
true in other counties in the state. Also
in the larger cities the vote at the Sep
TENDER primaries was as large as at the
primaries held under the old plan. And
how many people refrained from voting
at the primaries simply because they
were asked to declare their party affl-
iations? But very few.
