In an Iowa case brought against a
dead man, and so entitled by an at
torney who was apparently absent
minded, the following motion was
filed, as we learn from the Davenport
Republican:
Defendants Motion to Dismiss
In the District Court in and for
County.-Claus Knutson Morvke VS..
Knuteson Sofiord, Deceased.-Behold!
!! ! Now doth appear the shades of
Knuteson Sofjord, deceased, and dis
daining to be sworn after the manner
of men but with all the solemnity of
those long dead objects to the juris-
diction of this court
list. For the reason that 1t ap-
pears from the record that he is non
resident of Iowa and a resident of
Elysium and this court will take
judicial knowledge that no lawyers
are allowed in that domain and he is
thus deprived of the ability to de-
fend in this action
I'd. The suing of a dead man is a
cruel and unusual mode of punish
ment unknown to theology and for
hidden by the constitution of the
United States.
sd. Defendant admits that the
notice of this action (Which was by
publication reached him and, on ac-
count of the universal and uniform

tors they are always received in the

KEEPING COOL.

We're all a-keepin' cool today,
We're all a-keepin' cool;
The children run most all the way
In goin' to the school
For fear of freezin' on the road;
An GOALS so dreadful high,
We all so broke on every load
That we're compelled to buy.
An fathers indignation gets
Sc warm we're half afraid:
An ms Their kind O grieves an frets
In fsct, we're all dismayed.
But fathers threat and mothers frcwn
Don't change the winters rule:
Thermometers keep goin' down
An we are keepia' cool.

The law pays little heed
To Titles. it appears:
The bandage on Justicia's eyes
Quite likely interferes.
Microscopy was not begun
Tho Coke did write on Littleton.
Hence briefs are rarely brief,
Points are not points at all;

His fees are seldom small
All these are what the law expects,

Concerning Flies.

The common house fly is above all
things else a scavenger. No doubt the
flies were intended to serve good pur-
pose by destroying filth and waste, but
in their work they are liable to do seri-
Gus harm, to say nothing Of the con-
slant annoyance which they cause. 1t
Is believed that flies are effective dis
seminators of disease germs. Coming,
we will suppose, from a heap of offal
which contains the germs of typhoid
fever. they enter the dwelling house
and light upon some article of food. Is
it not reasonable to suppose that they
may bring with them some of the mi
mute organisms which develop this de-
structiye disease?
If the fly could be confined to his
proper place, which, as said in the be-
ginning, is that of scavenger, he
would serve a valuable purpose; but,
like some human beings, he may cause
trouble when he goes outside his ap-
pointed sphere.-New York Tribune.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
IntelI4sent DishwashIng.

Household work, especially kitchen
work, may be so much simplified by a
little method and beginning at the
right endI The woman who starts to
wash dishes when they are spread all
over the kitchen table makes herself
unnecessary work. How many false
motions does she make and what an
unnecessary number of steps she takes.
She will reach for a plate, scrape it,
drop the knife, wash the plate, then re-
peat the process, perhaps picking up
dishes indiscriminately as to kind or
size, and, no matter how much she may
hurry, she is working at such a disad-
vantage that it is no wonder dish
washing has a terror for her.
Contrast this way of stepping around
and it is no eXaggeration-with the
way another woman Will prepare for
her work. She clears the sink, scrapes
and piles each kind of dishes by them
selves; her towels, plenty of them, are
clean and at hand; plenty of hot, soapy
water in the dishpan and the drainer
clear TO receive the clean hot dishes,
which require very little drying after
their two successive hot baths. First
the glasses are washed, rinsed and
wiped while the silver sOaks in the
suds, then the silver, each relay being
wiped as coon as rinsed and drained,
while the next is in the dishpan The
waters are changed frequently, as are
che towels. and in this way dishwash-
ing becomes pleasanter work, and the
array of shining glass, silver and china
is n delight TO the eye, proving that
there can be q satisfaction even in dish
washing. and it is done IN much less
time and with far less effort than in
haphaZard way Cooking Club.

An Effective Dining Room.

y white and yellow dining room is
decidedly something of q novelty. 1t
is difficult for decorators and home
makers to get away from the idea that
Il dining room should be treated in
markedly dignified if not somewhat
subdued and heavy style. Yellow and
white IS not necessarily fiippant, and
when the room to be treated is in the
country and has green and shaded
outlook the effect is really charming
An apartment of this sort in cottage
that is perfect in harmonious effect
throughout has the wall paneled to
within seven inches of the tops of the
doors. and all the woodwork is painted
ivory white. Above the paneling is

brown and the chair seats of chestnut

dill and white form the window hang

for electricity is suspended by long sill

table and a more charming and invit

weather, can hardly be imagined.

admitted it to be an opera far above
the average. The fact that Mr.. Grau
has determined to put it on at the Met
ropolitan is another full proof of it's
merit.
Mr.. Aptomas, the Welsh harpist, re-
Gently gave a recital at the Carnegie
Chamber of Music in New York that
was full of interest. Mr.. Aptomas is
how IS years of age, and among his
hearers were a number of old New
York music lovers who had heard him
many years ago. He is well known to
American as we'll as to English au-
diences, and he played, besides sew
eral Welsh melodies of his own COM
position, Handels Blacksmith" and
Mendelssohn's Songs Without
Words" His performance proved that,
even ut his advanced years, his hand
has lost none Of its cunning nor his
artistic instinct any of it's capability
of instrumental results. In genuine
reality of the lines of Scott,
I'm varying cadence, soft and strong,
He swept the sounding chords along"
This appearance of Mr.. Aptomas re-
called to the memory of many who
heard him the happy and pleasant mu-
sicales of the days when Washington
Square and lower Fifth avenue were
in their social glory. 1t seems a pity
that an instrument that can pour
forth the soulful, mellow music of
which harp is capable should not be
more frequently heard.
The last New York performance
this season of the opera 1.-THE Silver
Slipper" was given at the Broadway
Theater last night. This is the opera
in which Mckenzie Gordon made his
first appearance on the operate stage.
Mckenzie Gordon was formerly of
Savannah, known here as George Nc
KenZie, when he sang in Christ
Church choir with Mrs. Agnes Postell.
Mrs. w. P. Hunter and Mr.. Julian
Walker, under the direction of Mr..
Marc Steward. In this connection it
will be of interest to know that the
name George Mckenzie" was given
him by Mr.. E. E. c. Habersham of
this city. AS the cabin boy of Mr..
Habersham, then purser on one of the
steamers of the Ocean Steamship
Company, his name was plain Peter
Mack. Thinking that the name was
not sufficiently high sounding, he one
day asked Mr. Habersham to suggest
one under which he could thereafter
go, and Mr.. Habersham suggested
George Mckenzie" By this name he
was known until he moved to New
York and secured a choir position at
st. Bartholomew Church on Madison
avenue. He then changed his name
again and took that of Mckenzie Cor
don, by which he is now known with
great distinction in musical circles at
the North.
