BRIDGETENDERS
WE'RE ELECTED
Employees of the Court House
also Named by Republicans
DEMOCRATS WERE MAPPING

By appointing county bridgetendels
and court bouse officers Saturday after
noon majority of the Republican men,
bers of the Levy Court fooled three
Democratic commissioners and played a
clever political game.
Not only.were the appointments a sur
prise, but the men selected were equally
so, for with the exception of John B.
Kelly, day ianitor, and William R. Clark,
clock regulator, none OF the court house
officers were retained.
The case was the same in the appoint
ment of bridgetenders, for changes were
made at all of the city bridges. Michael
Police alone being retained, but being
transferred from Eleventh street bridge
to Washington street bridge.
Bridgetenders at Christiana and
Churchman'S bridges which are in Com
missioner Robert McFarlin's district
were not appointed.
The appointments follow
Third street bridge-Pennil Stetser,
day man; William Virden, night man.
Eleventh street bridge-WiIliam F.
Walker.
Seventh street bridge-William File.
Market street bridge-WiIliam Fl.

night man.
Washington street bridge - Michael

Brandywine-Wiliam Hemsley, COL
ored.
Newport-James Mahan.
Odessa-William A. Rhoades.
Fleming's-Jacob A. Gibbons.

These court house officers were ap-
pointed: Night watchman, William
Logue fireman, Solomon Peterson; day |
janitor, John B. Kelly; night janitor,
Amos Collins, colored; clock regulator,
William r. Clark.
While the appointments were being
made there was stir of excitement about
the court house, and genuine surprise
was expressed on every hand at the
result.

THE BREAKwATER HARBOR

Congressman n-elect Burton is credited
with making the following statement
concerning the harbor at the Delaware
Breakwater:
"The condition which has prevailed in
shipping during the last two weeks should
demonstrate to the river and harbor COM
mittee, to the government engineers and
to the owners of vessel property that the
Breakwater harbor should be shut in at
once. 1t is made necessary not only be-
cause of suffering and privation of crews,
the damage to vessels and vessel property,
but is necessary because of the fact that
vessels dragging about in the ice and the
north winds have reduced the mud flats
and are filling up the harbor. With the
north end of the Breakwater closed in
there would be absolutely no possibility
OF the harbor filling up because all will
admit that the harbor will not be filled
up by the inflow from the sea-

At this writing the closing arguments
in the tedious impeachment proceeding
against Judge Swayne are being made,
and Congress and the people breath a
sigh of relief that the affair will soon be
over Never, perhaps on any business
has the Senate, been more closely con-
fined for longer time. Constituted as a
court every lawyer among the Senators,
and the majority of the Senators are of
that profession, felt the necessity of hear
ing all of the testimony which they were
to consider in their decision. The wit
nesses have been for the most part unin-
teiesting AMI the testimony has been
painfully wearisone. Realizing the mass
of work that had accumulated and was
waiting to be done the Senators have
chafted under the tedious taking of testi-
mony and have been fairly free in their
self announcement for having so blithely
undertaken the business at this time.
Five hours are to be allowed each side in
the closing argument and the settlement
of the case will allow the Senate less than
five days in which to transact the block
ade OF work that the delay has caused.

ing to witness the unique Mardi Gras
celebration at New Orleans, the Pennsyl.

of higll-cass Pullman equipment will be
run, in charge OF a tourist agent. Three

uonsly, SO that hotel accommodations and

.parades. Round-trip rate, including
round-trip transportation, Pullman berth
in both directions and during stay in New
Orleans, all meals in dining car during
entire trip, and seat in special grand stand

The Swayne case was displaced for
awhile Thursday while Mr.. Penrose with
his post office appropriation bill and Mr..
Stewart with bill for Indian appropria-
tions clamored for recognition. Neither
of them succeeded though for the Senate
was disposed to act on the Canal PROPOSE
ton and after some debate a bill was
passed, which eliminated the provision
made in the bill as it came from the
House that the canal commission be
abolished. The President is in favor of
abolishing the Commission and Secretary
Taft after his trip to Panama states that
in his opinion, the Commission was
hinurance rather than aid to the admin
istratiop of affairs in the canal zone.
Senator German however and Senator
Allison who is friend of rear Admiral
Walker the President of the Canal Com.
mission, headed all opposition to the
provision and it was striken out. 1t is
not likely the House will accept the bill
as amended and the Interstate Commerce
Committee of the House proposes to
carry out its threat to formally lay before
the President the facts developed at the
recent investigation of the Commissioners
the acceptance OF fees for SER
wing as directors of the Panama railroad.
This, they say is in direct violation of
the orders of the President.

THE WISER WAY

BY MRS. MARY B. wINGATE
II thy friend is sad and weary,
Rest him for while.
If his way is dark and dreary,
Light it with smile.
Let some helpful word be spoken,
Give a tender, loving token,
1t may cheer a heart that's broken,
And its grief beguile.
Like a medicine that healeth
BY its subtle art,
Is the sunny ray that stealeth
From a merry heart.
As the song OF some sweet bird
Holy memories oft hath stirred,
So kind and hopeful word
Will its strength impart.
Thou canst lessen pain and sorrow,
Lessen it by half,
By the magic thou canst borrow
From happy laugh.
Let thy light shine full and fIee,.
Bid the darksome shadows flee,
Till the sad ones turn to thee,
As their stay and staff.
Carry, ther, face that's smil np,
With thee everywhere.
From its weariness begIiling
Many life OF care.
Soothing oft a heart OF sorrow,
Teaching it some hope to borrow,
That will gild the coming morrow
With rainbow fair.

Magazine Notes

The frontiersman of our day, the hardy
settler of the Canadian Northwest, is
realistically drawn in rattling good
bear-story by Frederick g. Scotford in
the March McCltre's This new author
does not belong to that school of nature
writers who clothe the blutes of the forest
with human attributes. "Three Toes"
is ranger-bear learned in traps and the
WAYS OF men. There is no glamor thrown
over his bear nature. He remains as
diabolically wicked as only ranger-bear
can be, and tile reader, when Molly has
suffered from his claws, burns to join her
Young husband in the chase. We
breathe our relief when daring Molly
traps him in the root-cellar, and it is
real satisfaction to know that when
David comes in from the woods the ter
ror of the wilderness farm will meet
well-deserved fate.

Time has somewhat notified the acute
difference between the White House and
the President but the condition is un-
changed. There are certain representa-
ii. eS of great corporations on the floor of
the Senate and there can be no peace be-
tween them and the great corporations
backing them OH one side and the Presi-
dent of the United States with the people
Of the United States backing him on the
other side. The President has nothing to
ask from the Senate or the people. The
people have given him all that he wanted
and he has publicly said that he wants
nothing more, and for the next four years
it is believed by those versed in political
astrology there will be relentless war on
every species of monopoly, no matter
how firmly it may be intrenched in the
Senate of the United States.

Investigation OF the Standard Oil Com
pany recommended by the President III
the unequivocal command to "begin at
once 20 to the bottom and report early"
is going to prove test OF strength OF the
United States government that has seldom
been equalled. The Standard Oil Com
pany is one of the most powerful indus
trial and financial institutions in the
world with ramifying interests in banks
railroads, lands, and great insurance COM
panies, and when the United States under
takes to investigate this company it is
not to be imagined where the work will
end. The resolution, however, introduced
by Representative Campbell of Kansas
and which has given that heretofore OBJ
scure young man fame in a single night
appeals to the popular imagination already
quickened by the magazine and news
paper articles that claim to have been ex-
positions of the conditions in the great
trust organizations. Mr.. Campbell is
insistent for criminal prosecution of the
company and in response to all interviews
asserts that he has the material in hand
to prove every charge which he made be-
fore Commissioner of Corporations Gar
field, and that these he belives, will make
action by the Department of Justice and
imperative requirement. Whatever the
end of this investigation, and no average
mind can begin to see the end, Mr..
Campbell has set for government the
biggest task it has undertaken and though
the House without respect to party was
eager to adopt the resolution offered by
him it is believed that the party issue of
the next campaign may be drawn on this
very issue.

An amendment in the army appropria-
ton bill covers the question OF the pay. of
General Miles who at present receives the
full amount of a lieutenant general. The
effect OF the agreement is to give him the
full retired pay without reference to the
compensation lie may receive for serving
on the staff of the Governor OF Massachu-
sets. The public is glad to be rid of this
much mooted question at last even if it
does reduce the Generals income.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb 25, 1905.
THE Senate has been called in extra
session to convene Immediately after
the fourth OF March. Its presence will be
necessary to confirm such appointments
as the President about that time will
make. There will be at least one new
member of the Cabinet, a new Ambassa-
dor to Great Britain, Hon. Whitelaw
Reid, and probably two or three others,
with numerous minor appointments.

Every farmer should be shy OF the
stove men who are all the time travelling
about the country. They charge twice
as much as their stoves are worth. Not
one farmer out of dozen but regrets his
purchase, if he should be wheedled into
buying one of the stoves. The best way
is, to bny of men at home who are re.

THE WORST CUT OF ALL.
opals That Had Brought Misfortune
Were Not the Genuine
Stones.

II think Sir Walter Scott is largely re-
sponsible for the superstition as to
opals," said the travelling salesman of Jew.
elry to the Philadelphia Inquirer. BE that
as it may, it is still widespread. There is
a large .jewelry house in one of the big
cities which will not handle opals. This
means loss of thousands of dollars an.
nually The founder of the house put the
bar on opals, and the third generation is
keeping it up.
Il was behind the counter of house
in the east. A lady came in, and hand
ing me breastpin set with opals, said:
Mr.. Jones, what will you give me
for these stones? They were an heirloom
in my husbands family, but since they
have come into my possession my husband
and | have had nothing but misfortune
We have lost our residence by fire; there
has been sickness in the family all the
time, and he is experiencing business re.
verses. must get rid of the opals; SO
make an offer for them
Madam, ! said, are you sure that
your troubles are due to them?
Oh, perfectly surep
You cannot think of any other
cause?'
4" No; make me an offer, please
Madam, | replied, deferentially, Il re
greet to inform you that those stones are

POINTERS ABOUT GLOVES.
A Woman Should Not Try in This
Day of Easy Fit to Buy Tight
and Short Fingered Glove.

Don't buy a glove that is too SMALL"
advised woman buyer in one of the big
department stores. ut not only cramps
the hands, but it prevents grace of mo-
ton and gives poor service.
Not one-half of the women who come
in here know what points to watch out
for in buying gloves. | try to instruct
my girls to inform customers, but a
woman must be ripe for the knowledge
through personal experience or the adj
vice will not be appreciated.
BLACK gloves are generally less elas-
tic than light colors. Dressed kid
gloves usually retain their freshness
longer and are more durable than suede.
Short-fngered gloves give the hand q
uniformed look, and they soon break
out at the tips or between the fingers.
Putting on glove for the first time
has no more to do with the fit and wear
than almost anything else. Take time
to fit them and, if possible, wear them
good half-hour before closing the
fingers. Button the last button first, for
the greatest strain naturally comes on
the first"

WAYS OF COOKING ONIONS
Especially at This Time of the Year
Is This Succulent Vegetable
Relished Heartily.

To boil onions, pour boiling water
over them and remove the skins. Put
them in boiling water which is pretty
well sailed and boil five minutes
Change the water again and boil until
tender, which is usually in half an
hour. Be careful to keep the onion
whole if possible. Drain off the water,
add milk enough to cover, season with
butter, salt and pepper. Serve plain
or as garnish for meat.
When baking onions, take large Ber-
muda onions and peel them and boil
in salt water and milk until quite ten
der. Then place them in baking-pan
with butter on the surface and little
fresh milk. Bake until brown in a
slow oven.
To scallop onions boil and, if very
large, cut into sections. Put into a
shallow dish, cover with butter sauce
and buttered crumbs and bake until a
crust appears.
To make onion sauce, take off the
skins from a dozen small onions, white
preferably; put in pan with boiling
water, cover and boil an hour. Then
drain and pass through fine colander
Make a white sauce, add the onions
boil up once and it is ready for use
This is capital with boiled chicken.

DISCIPLE OF SOCIALISM.
Mike Was Willing to Share with His
Fellows Anything He
Didn't Have.

Once, as the story goes, two Irishmen
were, engaged in discussion, when Pat
asked Mike what socialism was, relates the
Louisville Courier-J Journal.
Well, socialism is sort of an equal d.
vision of property, declared Mike. What's
mine, is yours and what's yours is mine.
That's the idea
of you had s2,OOO,OOo,' asked Pat,
would you give me 81 900, 0OO%
would that said Mike. That's ac.
cordlng to my principles
:" If you had two houses would you
give me one of themY was Pats next
question. Mike insisted that he would.
=" And fyou had two fine horses would
you give me one%
Mike declared that he would follow his
principles
Z" And if you had two goats would you
give me one Of them| finally asked Pat.
81 would not. | have them, declared
the socialstic disciple"
And there is not in the books, be it re
membered in these days when SO many
men are pretending to be socialists, bet
ter definition of socialism than that.
