Simple Table Decorations.
New York Press: The fashion Of table
decorations changes often. and at present
red is In the ascendant. Table decorations
are more simple these days han ever be-
fore. It is not so many years ago that the
center Of q table was a forest inhabited
by souvenirs or a mill pond OF real wa
ter. About five years ago It was fash
ionable to have all these outlandish eff
fects, and a hostess was perplexed sorely
to devise some novel scheme Of decora-
ton. To Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs is at
tributed credit for the first step toward
simplicity. When she gave a n elaborate
betrothal breakfast for her sister, now
Mrs. Willie K. Vanderbilt, jr., it was ex-
pected that the table would be a perfect
jungle. Instead there was an artistic
scattering Of ferns on the cloth, and In the
middle there was a silver. bowl Of roses.
After that came the vogue of candles,
and hostesses We'd with one another in
displaying costly candelabra. The Astors
used candle-bearer Of gold. But now all
IS changed, and the fewer Of these gew-
gaws the better. A mere clump Of stunted
palms with trellises Of leaves or smilax
will suffice for the most ~pretentious din
ner. Tiny Japanese plants are In good
taste, and the scarlet poinsetta is In high
favor. Red is the approved color. At the
Gerry musicale the lights in the conser-
vatory were shaded with red, and red
roses were everywhere. At the Astor ball,
except for the ball room In lilies and
orchids, there were displays Of American
Beauty n Meteor roses exclusively. In

lions to poinsettas. but Mrs. Roosevelt is

HUNT FOR CENTURY OLD RUM.
Amos Patterns Descendants to Search

for a Buried lug.
New York Sun: During the fore
noon of July 4. 1903, Amos Patten Of
Bangor climbed to the top of Mt. Ka-
tahdtn, accompanied by two guides.
They We're the first two white men
who yer set foot upon the summit of
Names highest mountain.
In his diary OF the trip Mr.. Patten
records that he gave three cheers for
more for the American eagle and then
cried Death to all traitors!" three
times. After these ceremonies he sang
Yankee Doodle" in q loud, clear voice,
and when he a finished the patriotic
exercises of the day he and his guides
took "two stiff horns of new rum, en-
grayed our names on a sheet of lead,
wrapped the same about q gallon jug
Of rum and buried both under a cat
spruce tree on the very top"
At his death the patriotic mountain
climber left an estate valued at SIS, 900
and a family of five sons, all Of whom
made repeated trips to the mountain
to find the hidden record and the aging
rum. which was doing no good to any
body.
On July 4, 1853. sixteen Pattens stood
on the mountain top ana sang yankee
Doodle" Hail Columbia" and THE
Star Spangled Banner" They also
ca1nped among the trees and made a
thorough search for the jug of rum,
which was fifty years Of age inc no
doubt very mellow, but their labors
were without reward.
Twenty-Five years later. on July 4,
1878, twenty-three Pattens, all of whom
were descendants Of Amos. toiled up
the side Of Mt. katahdin and spent two
days In camp above the hardwood line.
They repeated all the old songs with
which the mountain was familiar and
added Rally Round the Flag
Marching Through Georgia." and sew
eral others left over from the civil war,
but though they looked under every
cat spruce tree Of a fve-acre lot at the
summit the ~75-year-old rum was not
discovered.
AS 1903 is the Tooth anniversary of
the first ascent of the mountain, the
descendants of Amos Patten will make
still another trial to unearth the elu-
sive run, n will pass a week on the
summit, singing patriotic hymns, max
ing speeches and digging for the jug
of liquor which Is more precious than
gold.
There are forty-two male descend
ants of Amos Patten between the ages
Of IA and 70. and Of these more than
thirty have pledged themselves to &C
company the party. A fife and drum
corps will go along and II that century,
old rum can be found. they are resolved
to know just how 1t tastes.

to put fat on your bones and

Nine-tenths OF the population
would be benefited by taking SCOTS

day for a month or more every fall
to fortify and strengthen the sys-
tenn against the cold and constant
changes that occur through the Win
ter. The benefit is particularly
marked with young, delicate chill

Democrats to Vote Republican Ticket.
Rev. s. L. Corruthers, president Of the
Washington Suffrage League, has sent let
tiers to a number Of colored democratic or
ganizations. asking their members to vote
the republican ticket next Tuesday. In
sending out the circulars attention was
called to the speech of Senator A. P. Cor
man. which, President Corruthers says. was
an insult to every colored man in the United
States.
Speaking to a Star reporter this morning
the Rev. Corruthers said that Mr.. Germans
speech had done an immense amount Of
harm to the democratic party, and it had
confused the party leaders. In New York,
Boston and Cleveland, Ohio he said, the
speech will cause most Of the members Of
the colored democratic organizations to
change their ballots to the republican can
didates. In New York city alone, he said
1t will make a change Of at least 15.UOO
votes. He said he had already heard of
some of the cOlored democrats who will
break away from their party at the COM
ing election.
