ever. Consequently, the Demo
Gratis in the Senate have banded
together and unless the conven-
tions are so amended as expressly
to omit from possible arbitration
the payment of these bonds they
will never be ratified.
The pre- spects are that the
President and his Secretary of
the Navy are likely to encounter
iusuperable opposition to their
naval programme. They have
asked that new vessels, which
will cost S42, 100000 be author
lied. The government has al
ready authorized ships which,
before they are completed, will
cost $3.50 900, 600 and there will
be a national deficiency of 800, :
600, 600, at least, this year Con
gress now declares itself ready to
authorize few of the ships
asked for, but positively declines
to authorize an additional ex-
penSe for new ships amounting
to nearly $50 OOO,0 900. In this
connection, attention is called to
the fact that the naval authorities
now declare that the Oregon is
obsolete, although it is one of
the largest battleships atiOat,
being of $1,000 tons burthen.
Now they demand ships of not
less than 10000 tons, although
none of the foreign powers ex-
cept England are building battle
ships of such gigantic size. The
more conservative members of
Congress insist that at least one
of the new 10000 ton ships al
ready authorized should be put
into commission and thoroughly
tested before more are authorized
and IN this economical and judic.
ious policy the Republicans will
receive the support of the Demo.

Filling the Cushions.
Written for THE CITIZEN. |

If during the summer months
you have kept your fingers busy,
perhaps the result is a number Of
pretty covers for cushions, and
YOU are wondering where you are
to get enough filling for them all,
as feathers or down make more
or less expensive filling, but there
are several which cost nothing,
and are very satisfactory. Ii you
will save all the turkey and
chicken feathers, you may have
nice down cushions for your GOV
ers and your bedticks. When you
dress a chicken or turkey, dry the
feathers, and put them in a bag;
then devote some idle hour to strip
ping these feathers, throwing
away the quilts, and putting the
down in another bag made of thick
muslin; then wash them in warm
suds. to which has been added a
few drops of carbOlic acid. Nice
filling for porch pillows can be
made by cutting excelsior very
fine, or by drying grass in the
sun, but this should not be press
ed so closely as to make the pill
lows hard. A very good substi
tute for feather pillows can be
made by cutting up clean, soft,
old pieces of cloth into quite
small pieces, fraying them a little
with the fingers, then filling the
cotton ticks with them; and paper
filing seems to be new to the
majority CT housekeepers. One
way to prepare the paper is to first
tear the pieces into long strips,
haitian inch wide, then across into
bits no longer than the thumb
nail; and another way is to cut
the paper into strips three or four
inches long, and then curl with a
knife or one blade of pair of
scissors. You can keep your
covers made of white goods beauti-
fully white and clean by washing
them through a warm pearline
Suds, and while the white covers
are improved by soaking in the
suds, those made of colored fab
RIGS should be washed, rinsed,
and dried as quickly as possible.
A tick that is to be filed with
feathers or down, should he turn
ed wrong side out and ironed all
over with beeswax to prevent the
feathers from working out, and
the wax should be rubbed on the
hot iron, and spread over the
cloth in this way, and one tick is
not sufficient for contining the
feathers. Your casing is ready
for the feathers after ironing with
the beeswax, and if, over this you
put a thin white slip, your pillow
is all right for the outside cover

FOR MARYLAND INSTITUTE
Carnegie and Jenkins Supply
Needed Funds and Ground
for the Rebuilding of this
Celebrated Istitution.

Mr. Michael Jenkins, one of
the most prominent tinanciers in
Baltimore City, and equally well
known as a philanthropist and
public spirited citizens, has do
mated to the Maryland Institute
the extensive lot at the North
west corner Of Mount Royal ave
nue. and Lanvale Street, Balti-
more, adjoining Corpus Christi
Catholic Church, itself one of
the objects of his beneticence, as
a site for new institute building.
Other mem bers of his family
having an interest in the prop
erty had expressed their hearty
approval of the gift being made.
BY this splendid gift to the
institute the recent offering of
Mr.. Andrew Carnegie of 1868, =
900 for the erection of a build
ing is made available, as his
letter to Mr.. Daniel c. Gilman,
expressing his desire to help the
institute. Mr.. Carnegie stated
that he deemed it reasonable to
expect that the city would give
the site, and this being arranged,
he would give the money to erect
the building. 1t is not thought
that Mr.. Carnegie would insist
that the site be given by the mu-
nieipality and the managers of
the institute and the public at
large are satisfied that this mag
niticent donation by a public
spirited citizen will fulfill Mr..
hfnegie's conditions.
Coming so close after the Car
negie gift, this one of Mr.. Jen-
kins is particularly a source of
satisfaction not only to the man
ayers of the institute, but to the
whole city. MI. Carnegie's letter
to DR.. Gilman was as follows:
"December s, 1904.
"My Dear Mr.. Gilman: Yours
of December 9 received. AS
understand the situation the total
assets of the Maryland Institute
are 1868, 900, i. e., insurance $40, =
600, endowment $4,000, contri
buttons from the State S175, 600.
"The City of Baltimore fur
nished the institute with site,
and it seems reasonable TO expect
that it would not do less when
the institute is ready to rebuild.
Il presume that an amount
equal to what It has now, say
1868, 600, would provide a suita-
able building, the site being
given by the city.
eff this be arranged it will
give me great pleasure to furnish
that sum, which would duplicate
the assets for the erection of a
building. Very truly yours,
"ANDREw CARNEGIE.
cdr. Daniel G. Gilman,
"6I4 Park Avenue, Baltimore

garded as the best possible reply
to Mr.. Carnegie.

Senator Dubois says the Mormon

the uncompromising foe of Mormonism.
He was born i'll Illinois in 1851 and
graduated from Yale college in 1872.
In 1880 he went to Idaho and entered
