HELPS for HOusehOlders.

Two books, written from very different
points OF view, but both useful. come to the
assistance of the owner Of house. "The
Care of House." by T. NJ Clark (Macmil-
lans), is written from the architectural point
OF view and is exactly what the title says.
It tells how to keep house in repair and
about the troubles that may be expected
from the plumbing and the electric fittings
and the woodwork and roof and furnace
and kitchen stove, and tells what should
be done when trouble arises.
The other. Encyclopaedia of Household
Economy" by Emily Holt McClure, Phillips
4 Coz, ID Of more general character.
While it devotes some space to repairs and
plumbing and the furnace, and 80 forth, it
includes great many other matters Of
a more miscellaneous character. Among
these are suggestions about kitchen
conveniences, closets, housekeeping, the
laundry, the care of animals, from horses
and COWS to dogs, cats and hens, what
should be done in the sick room, and many
other matters. A chapter on herbs and
simples in a twentieth century book is
something of a curiosity.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Sept. 29-Conductor
Titus of the Long Branch express on the
Pennsylvania Railroad had an experience
recently that nearly took his breath away.
At Long Branch on the regular morning
run there were the usual number Of pas
senpers, and among them natty little
woman. full of life and hustle, with seven
small children and two maids, the latter
loaded down with satchels and bundles.
II was evident that the party was returning
home after summer outing, and all looked
extremely well, especially the children.
While collecting tickets the conductor
reached the Long Branch party and the
woman handed to him three single tickets.
The party were spread out, with their
sstchels and bundles, occupying four
seats. Conductor Titus looked at the
tickets and then looked over the party,
and. addressing the woman, said:
Are these all your tickets? hardly
think this Is right.
sYes; that's ALL said the woman,
but there are three grown persons and

here are only three single tickets.'

She had been freed from Ellis Island only
two hours and there was no wedding cake
available for Miss Lizzie Simpson when,
in the Immigfa Girls Home few days
ago, she married young farmer who came
from New Haven to claim her. So the
matron at Q State street, where the ceremony
took place, hurried out and bought box Of
chocolates instead. Bride, bridegroom and
minister partook of them as solennly as
if they had been the cake
When Samuel Cameron, the young farmer

sage money to Belfast, he said she was

Miss Lizzie, delightful study in colors, said

The minister who holds the religious
services in the home responded to the
bridegroom's invitation and received a
liberal fee. Before the ceremony was
performed, all the girls in the home filed in

An Improbable Book.

The st. Louis exposition Is responsible
for many books on the Louisiana purchase
and the history Of the Middle West, but,
we imagine. for none so worthless as "A
History Of the Mississippi Valley by John
R. Spears in collaboration with A. Il. Clark
"a. S. Clark, New York;. No part Of Ameri-
can history has been so carefully studied
Of late years by competent students.
Francis Parkman has presented the facts
in a manner that made them readable to
the general public and with the authority
OF the precise historian. Plenty Of careful
historians in the States that have sprung
up In the valley have treated Of matters
of detail In an entertaining form. We
fail to see what excuse there ia for retelling
what has been acquired from hasty and
undigested reading in famboyant journal
istic style, mingled with vapd defamation
on all kinds Of personal fancies. The
aversion to accuracy noticeable in other
books of the author is especially marked
in this. 1t may account for the omission
of all accents in proper names and foreign
words throughout the volume. That how
ever, is the least Of many shortcomings.

MITCHELL ON TRUSTS.
He Says tho Laws Regulating Them Are
Entirely Inadequate.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. 29.-In John
MitchelRs forthcoming book, the proofs
of which were received to-day at the United
Mine Workers headquarters in this city.
the labor leader discusses trusts and their
attitude and relation to trades unions.
Mitchell says that the present laws
regulating trusts are entirely inadequate
and advocates publicity as a means Of
controlling them properly.
Wages are not influenced by the number
Of employees, he says, but by the amount
OF employment, and !. il not probable
that the trusts will decrease the amount
of labor. Mitchell recalls that there was
a great dread Of displacement OF large
bodies OF men by the organization OF trusts,
but he insists that trusts do not reduce
the scope or opportunity Of employment;
Trusts should not be proceeded against
simply because they are such, but to pre-.
prevent abuse, Mitchell declares, and
should be considered from the point OF
the investor the consumer and the laborer.
Mitchell says that majority OF MEM
bsrs of trusts are opposed to treating
with trades unions, which, In his
opinion, is unfortunate for both sides
He believes that trusts are In better posi-
ton to treat with trades unions than are
individuals, and believes that trusts would
endanger their own interests by trying TO
crush unions,

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 29.-It was learned

No action has yet been taken on this.
Parks Is behind the resolution. He IL viz.
tually the executive committee OF local No. 2.
He will handle the money. He wishes to
assess each member Of the organization in
the United States 81, which would raise
a fund of $50 900 to start with, and he wishes
the convention to authorize the assessment
OF one day wages against ~ cry iron worker
In the United States. This would raise a
fund Of half million dollars. which he
wishes to use in fighting the employers
of New York.
The Parks and anti-Parks factions are
scheming tonight for votes. The election
of officers, probably will be- on Thursday
or Friday. President Buchanan is claiming
tonight fifty five votes out OF eighty -one,
but the Parks crowd say he has not that
many.

senator Lodge ON tho Revolution.

Before entering politics Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge Of Massachusetts, was student
Of history, trained by that great master,
Henry Adams. His subsequent long career
In active public life has enabled him to
look at the facts of history from broader
point of view than is vouchsafed to the
academic professor. He can therefore
say something that Is fresh and new and
at the same time Is worth saying on sub
ject so haokneyed as 'The Story of the
Revolution Charles scribner's Sons).
Readers who have followed Senator Lodges
articles O. they appeared in Scribner's
Maaains have been able to zee the df-
ference between his presentation Of the
salient points Of the struggle for indie
pendence with that Of the latter day his
tories. Apart from its historical accuracy.
the book Is important for its exposition
Of the personal opinions Of progressive
