a number of young people last Tuesday
evening in honor of the birthday of Mr..
Bert Holmes, a young man OF Seattle,
visiting at her home.
The assembled guests sat down to a
bountiful repast at 6 80 o'clock. Roast
pig occupied the attention of the diners
in the first course and when the elegant
menu had been carried through its sew
eral courses those seated around the fes-
tive board were conscious of the fact the
hostess, as usual upon occasions OF this
kind, had served splendid dinner.
The cutting OF the large fruit cake &C.
casioned considerable fun, insomuch as
a ring, thimble and ten cent piece were
to be found therein. The guest of honor
had the privilege of the first slice which,
however, availed him nothing insofar as
drawing a prize was concerned. Miss
Lucy Scudder drew the lucky ring and
according to tradition will be the first OF
the young ladies present to be married,
vr Erwin found the ten cent piece, but
the thimble, up to the hour of going to
press it has been impossible to ascertain
Just who is to be the old maid or bach
elor. Some of the guests present were
decidedly superstitious.

The Presidents Chair Disappears.

After the ceremonies on Monday, the
fine upholstered chair loaned for the
occasion by Lombard & Hors,ey mys-
teriously disappeared. Every possible
means were used to find it, and it was
feared for time that the one securing
it would never divulge its hiding place.
However, it appeared this y orning and
is now at the store. 1t appears that
parties living in the neighborhood had
removed the now famous chair to their
home in order that the guests and vis-
itors should be accorded the privilege of
sitting in chair which the head of the
nation had also occupied.

TO MERGE LINES o o
Northwestern Road Will Take IL

Northwestern Road Will Take thu
Omaha Under Its Wing Soon.
New York, Dec. 16.-The complete
merger of the Chicago & Northwestern
and the Chicago, St.paul, Minneapolis
& Omaha Railroad companies is said
to be under consideration. Recent con-
ferences OF capitalists jointly interested
in these two properties have been held.
and it is probable that a consolida-
ton plan will soon be laid before the
directors. For several years the Omaha
line has been operated as a part of the
Chicago & Northwestern system. Mar
vim Hnghitt is president of both roads
and nearly all of the executive officers
are the same.
The VaTderbiltS have a majority of
the directors of each company, and w.
K. Vanderbilt, Chauncey M. DepeW and
H. NICK. TWombly are on both execu-
tive committees. An independent finan-
c1al interest has been identified with
the Omaha line, however, and that
company has been maintained sepa-
rately with separate operating and
traffic departments. The principal
stockholders Of the Chicago & North
western have been increasing their
holdings Of Chicago, st. Paul, Mime
apolis & Omaha stock lately, and the
belief prevails among railroad men that
q consolidation Of the two properties
b. effected without any opposition.
These two roads make a system Of
1874 miles. If brought within the con-
troll of M corporation large economies
can be brought about, it is said, by the
consolidation Of departments.

THE TURK AND HIS WIFE.

Only One Woman in Most of tho Mos.
lem Harems Nowadays.
Century: Although Of late years, among
Turks highly placed, 1t has come to be
considered as far more chic to have only
one wife, yet this laudable increase in the
practice Of monogamy does not tend to q
complete emancipation from certain we'll
established Moslem traditions. The mem
ton of ones wife to a foreigner is nova
days made the easier when one may truth
fully speak OF her in the singular number.
TUX may, after some months of semi
intimacy, talk somewhat freely, indeed, Of
his domestic life, provided always his
household Is modelled after the European
plan Of life. The social line Is drawn at
the point Of asking even & lady TO call.
Frequent visiting between European and
Turkish wives. when these are in the sim
.gular number, is possible only after a
Somewhat prolonged residence and much
friendly intercourse.
f To the casual visitor there is an unex-
pected embarrassment in finding almost
all the Turks one meets in society married
ito one lady only. The singularity OF this
singleness is as trying, apparently, to the
Turks, on certain occasions, as 1t Is emf
nently disappointing to the European.

addressed. HE has but one wife. as, in
deed, we mostly all have"

WAS almost fearful. TT Pasha has a,

rs she Turk4eh?"
No: she Is a Circassian lady Of very
good family"
"Ah-h, a Circassian! She must be very
beautiful; the boys are SO handsome" the
pretty American remarked In a Modified
tone. From a romantic travellers point OF
View, If Turks persist In marrying as vir-
tuously and DULY as every one else, at
slave was a trifle more solacing than to
have found the single wife of correct
Turkish descent.
The young aid-de-camp smiled rs he
made answer: Eyes, you are quite right;
we mostly marry Circassians, and almost
all our children are beautiful"
There are still enough harems through
out Turkey sufficiently equipped with a
plurality of wives to satisfy the most ex-
acting of travellers in search Of a sensa-
ton. Even in C~onstantinople there are
pashas and effendis rich enough to keep
up The old standard of Moslem marital

Congressman Cousins on the Iowa DEL

N behalf of Mr.. Cousins for temporary
chairman of the republican national

his selection is assured. The

as final action will not be taken until

Cousins Is urged because Of his ability
as an orator and because in his address
before the last convention he struck
the keynote of the element opposed to
the Iowa idea. His stand was un-
doubtedly popular with many members
OF the committee.
Since coming here Mr.. Hart has de-

flickered out. He says Iowa is un-
