AFTER a conference between the
political leaders and the members of
the United Gas Improvement company
of Philadelphia, last Saturday, Thomas
Dolan, president of the company, an
nounced that it had withdrawn and
annulled its bid for the City Gas
Works
The councils had passed an ordinance
authorizing the sale and the sale had
been made; but the people of the town
protested against these proceedings and
the Mayor intended vetoing the or
dinance. The affair will weaken the
hold of the present bosses on the people
of the city; and for time it promised to
become state issue, as many millions
were involved.

An Afternoon Tea.

The latest u1ethSd Of making tea IS TO
prepare tiny chacsecloth or muslin bags
that hold just a. spoonful OF your faV-

the cup, place two maraschino cherries,
with the tiny bag; pour on the water,
and place the saucer on top OF the cup,
after the tea has drawn sufficiently, re-
move the saucer and fish out the nttle
bag, then pass slices Of lemon, which
have been slightly sprinkled with just
q suggestion of cinnamon.

These scarfs are two and a half yards

both the net foundation and the design.
