Whatever the reason his name was seldom men. tioned by machine republican without the prefix of a participial adjective be- ginning with "D."

 Telegrams from the Caucasus, where Q state bordering on anarchy has ex- isted for a month. say the news of the ,nutiny on board the Kniaz Potemkine made an electric impression and was the signal for a general movement of revolt.
 Revolt has spread to the Russian ar my at Warsaw. where fourteen sol diers were shot in fight with Cos sacks after refusing to go to Manchu- ria.
 An Odessa report says that the Kniaz Potemkine is bombarding Theodosia, that the town Is burning and that the soldiers of the garrison are engaged in footing. It also says that another tor pedo boat has joined the mutineers.
 RumOrs of the most diverse nature are in circulation, one of which is that two torpedo boats attacked the Kniaz Potemkne and were sunk by her.
 The cZar has received telegram from the people of Tomsk protesting against the address presented by Prince Troubetskoi and the other members of the deputation from the all Russian zemstvo congress. The tel egram declares that Russian liberals will only be satisfied with republic on the American model.

 The Roosevelt summer home is a plain house of red brick with wide ve- randas and cool porches, overlooking the sound. The rooms are spacious and all the proportions so we'll managed that it is with an effort that one realizes that it is large house. Two months ago it was hundred feet long, irreg- ular in shape, typical "two-and-a-half- story" house. This spring a great library has been built upon one end cor responding in style and arrangement with the main house The addition alone cost $15,0 ,000, as the room is spacious and fireproof for the sake of its valu- able future contents. Mir Roosevelt has always been lover and a buyer of books, and he has now in Washington and in Oyster Bay a valuable col lection. Of course the house is also full of trophies of many hunts in the west. Int hall particularly bears upon the walls noble mounts of bear and elk heads.
 The new library is a dignifed room, somewhat more formal than the plain remainder of the house. It is adorned with the combined monograms of MT. and Mrs, Roosevelt with eagles done in gilt and with classic details-all very colonial. In spaciousness and dignity 1t reminds one of the state dining-room at Mount Vernon. And have seen three out of four people enter, view and leave the same beautiful room of Wash ington's planning without noticing that 1t is full two stories in height, unlike the other rooms on the ground floor, the difference being masked on the exterior by false windows in the upper story whose blinds are always closed.

 The cortege was now formed and proceeded along the Avenue de rAlma the Champs Elysees, across the Alex ander bridge to the Esplanade des In valdes.
 Heading the procession came a squadron of cuirassiers in glistening helmets and breast plates, stretching from curb to curb, with a division of Infantry under General Frey. After them rumbled the gun caisson bearing the flower laden coffin, with guards of American sailors on either side. Back of the coffin was long line of distin guished officials, headed by Ambassa dor Mccormick, Special Ambassadors Porter and Loomis, Premier Rouvier and his cal binet. the foreign ambassa- dors and French generals and admi- rals, all walking. according to the French custom.
 Arriving at the Esplanade des Inva- udes an imposing picture was present cd The French government had erect ed large pavilion in which to deposit the coffin.

publicaps the more.
 Mayor Mcclellan is very popular, even with those people who loudly be- wall his subservience to Tammany. He has appointed to office frankly for political reasons some almost incred- ibly unfit men, corrupt, ignorant and neglectful The administration mas been anything but successful. Yet MT. Mcclellan is himself strong with the voters. He worthily represents the city on public occasions, makes good speech, has good appearance, is be- yond the reach of financial temptation, and represents quite as much as Mayor Low the idea of the scholar in politics. So when the Dean of Princeton col lege in conferring upon the mayor an honorary degree unsuspiciously re- ferred to him as the best mayor New York had ever had, the newspapers at first chortled with glee at the joke and then, taking the matter more serious ly, told the mayor that it might easily be true if he would stop playing poli-. tics and do his best. That is about the attitude of the public. He is the strongest candidate for mayor to-day.
 But the more extreme advocates of municipal ownership of street rail- ways, gas works and the like are down on Mcclellan. Most of these men are naturally democrats; their Ge- lection will reduce Tammany's strength, but Tammany nas strength to spare. Tammany cannot easily be beaten in a three-cornered fight The republicans are tempted, by the sight of a city which will spend $5OO,OoO,OOo within the next four years, to put up straight ticket. The municipal own ership people may in that case go it alone.
 Such a three-cornered fight once took place. Abram s. Hewitt was the democratic candidate, Theodore Roose- welt the republican, Henry George the radical. George was elected, but Hew- itt was counted in. Roosevelt was at the foot of the poll. What changes IS years have made. The radical ele- ments are far stronger now. But Hewitt had not McClellan's popular personality, though an excellent man: and the radicals now have no Henry George to run. A combination be- tween the radicals and republicans might be irresistible even against Mc- Clellan; but wonder if that is with in the possibilities of practical politics. That's what Odell is wondering, too.

RECIPE FOR GRAPE JUICE.

This is the way have prepared grape juice for
a number Of years and it is always satisfactory:
Take ripe grapes (any kind, pick over, wash and
boil them over a slow fire until seed and pulp
separate don't add any water, for by pressing
the grapes a little there will be juice enough to
start them cookng) press the juice through &
fine cloth; measure and add quarter OF rs
weight in granulated sugar. Then bring TO a boil
no more Bottle hot and seal hot. This will keep
for wears Wrap the bottles IN paper; keep in cool
drv place BE sure the bottles pure A good
way is to put them in wash boiler in cold water,
add washing soda and heat very hot before using.
Also have new corks for the bottles soaking them
first in cold water and press in very tight Much
depends on the way the juice is put up. If this
rule is carefully followed you will have trouble.
