ing up admirably under the strain and will appear to answer the charges against her.
 MT. Carpenter asked that denial be made of the report that Mrs. Chad wick attempted to make her escape to- day. He said that before she moved to the Hotel Breslin from the New Am sterdam. she consulted with the secret service men. This statement was con- firned by one of the secret service agents, who added that they had been informed by Mrs. Chadwick each time she had changed her quarters.
 MT Carpenter declared emphatically that MT. Powers was not the lawyer referred to by President Beckwith as having represented Mrs. Chadwick in Oberlin and Cleveland in vouching for the signature Andrew Carnegie" on the notes. He explained that this was impossible because MT. Powers did not go to Oberlin until Sept, which was long after the loan spoken of by Beck with was made.
 I have known MT. Powers, he said,
 Twenty-Five years and he is not the kind of man to make the statement credited to the lawyer in question by BeckWith. He is absolutely incapable of making such statement z

GOOD ADVICE FOR MISTRESSES.
 The employer of domestic help might as well make up her mind at the outset that masterly executive ability, lofty integrity of character and Chesterfield dian polish of manner can command higher inducements than she can offer, and that she doesn't have to call in the assistance of any X-ray to discover. the things she could wish altered in her servants. If she Is wise she will promp- tly decide whether it is a bearable or an unbearable matter. If 1t is unbearable, and can't be changed, the parting is inevitable. But if you find that, though you object to that particular manifes- tation of human weakness, still you can stand it without suecumbing to nervous prostration, then make up your mind just as far as possible to ignor 1t. It doesn't make the rolls any lighter to say every time they are ser we'd that they are heavy again, and 1t does make the breakfast table less cheerful. If she comes in late of an evening, it doesn't change her habits for you to lie awake watching and worrying and exclaiming every time the clock strikes upon the lateness of4the hour. But it does break up your beauty sleep, and perhaps your husbands too and you are liable to set up with a headache and start the day with the lowness of the domestic barometer in variable caused by a silent and visibly suffering person at the head of the table.-Good Housekeeping.

HOWE $ STEqSON OPENING.
THE SPLENDID REW ADDITION
 STOCKED FOR PUBLIC.

Big Additional Floor Space in New
 store-some of the Great Improve
 ments-How the store is Ventilated
 -Great stock Carried sy Firn,-Ho,v
 Some of theGOOdt Are obtatned.
 A great pre-Christmas event in the New Haven department store circles is the big opening sale at Howe 6 stet- sons celebrating the opening of the large addition to their store, it being an extension fronting on Pitkin street. Yesterday was the opening day of the exposition and throngs. of shoppers, ladies in the main, inspected and ad- mired the handsome new quarters. To add a further charm to the splendid effect Seeley's orchestra was on hand to discourse a pleasing musical pro- gramme. During the remaining days lo of the exposition which is scheduled to close Saturday night the orchestra will continue its offerings.
 The new store has floor space of 22,SO0 square feet, or nearly half an acre, and the basement part is now the largest and most conveniently laid out basement in the state. Down stairs and on the main floor part these are high ceilinged, light. bright and full of leheeriness.
 The new part of course forms an in- tegral part of, the entire store, but it has in addition an entrance of its own issuing into Pitlin street, that new business street that is being so finely built up now. This is great advant- age both to the public and to the firm, as 1t does away in part with the con- gestion on Chapel street and so renders both receipt of supplies and shopping easier.
 Near the Pitkin entrance is a very Large section devoted to house furnish ings which Hanks, as it were, a still larger area assigned to dinnerware, crockery and medium priced lamps in the center of this section. By the side of the elevator is the handsome section displaying imitation cut glass and lamps of finer quality. The depart ment for real cut glass, silverware and the finer and more ornate wares is handsomely beautified by the many mirrors which set off the wares to ex- cellent advantage and present most delightful and splendid sight.
 The new basement is ventilated by the aid of a powerful dynamo and fan which brings fresh air down from above the roof, forces it over steam heated pipes and distributes it through duets which carry it in every direction. At the same time all the impure air is forced out. The result is a continu- al supply of fresh air. heated to the proper degree and evenly distributed through the store Dampness is obviat- ed by concrete foundation under the thick wood flooring.
 l The stocks represent the choicest se- lection from the great manufacturing houses of America. and Europe. The quantities are practically unlimited, the whole years output of whole fac- tories being purchased. The cut glass goods are the firms own make. Pot teries sifi Europe make dinnerware, hric-a-brac, vases and such wares, es- peeially for this company. And so this great store invites you, one and all, to come and inspect this gorgeous array of stock, one of the largest and most complete in New England,

in one piece, so that all that has to be done to fix them is to lay them on the ground and put in the fish-plate bolts. Very heavy trains are being run, the minimum load over many parts of the line being sixty-ffye trucks, while it rises sometimes to eighty-fve or nine ty. Traffic is most congested on the Manehurian section between Tsitsihar and the Russian frontier at Manchuria station; in consequence of the extreme- ly heavy gradients there, not only are the trains shorter, but especially pow erful engines are required, and even So the speed up hill is sometimes no more than Q walking pace. The train,- in which our informant. travelled, and which was not passed by any other train, took three and one-haif days in getting from Kharbin to Manchuria station, distance of five or six hun dred miles, This section includes the Hing-ngin tunnel, which is not bricked and is very wet; it is lighted through out by electricity, and watched by guards stationed in recesses cut at in- tervals in the rock Big locomotive running sheds are now being built at Khailar. for serving this piece of line, but before these were taken in hand the nearest locomotive shops were at Kharbin. The congestion of traffic is also very great at Kharbin, owing to the huge accumulation of wagons which it is impossible to send back to Russia without interfering with the east-bound traffic; and in order to gain some room for shunting and working the trains loop is being built from a point on the Mukden line few miles south of Kharbin to join the Vladivosr tok line.
 The fuel chiefly used on the railway is wood, and of this huge stacks six feet and eight feet high and many yards thick are to be seen at almost ey- cry station along the line, whether in wooded or unwooded regions, the quan- titles stored being apparently sufficient to last for years Twenty miles east of Manchuria station thereais coal mine yielding Ignite of very poor quality, but at Mukden itself there is d large stock of coal, some of which has been brought up from Port Arthur, and some from the Yentai mines. The en- ElIpeS DeIW6en MukQSIA dUQ hndrDln are fired partly by coal and partly by wood.
 Cur informant took twelve days to travel from Mukden to- o9Irkutsk. thus traversing about one hundred and twenty five miles a day, including the passage of Lake Baikal, performed in an old German paddleboat, built at Stettin, which did not do more than eight knots. He saw the military trains going round the lake by the new railway From Irkutsk to Moscow the trains were taking ten days to cover a distance which normally is done in six or six and one-half days. It must be remembered, however, that the vest bound trains were often kept for hours in sidings, preference being naturally given to east-bound trains. Of these latter he counted ten or eleven daily on the average lone day thirteen) in the time during which he was not sleeping, say from six in the morning till eleven at night. The total number passing in the whole twenty-four hours must therefore have been about sixteen,
