Latest Freak Banouets.

The third annual rat carnival of the
Monroe Yacht club Of Monroe, Mich,
was celebrated recently With a great
rat feast. A delegation of Chicago
yachtsmen, about 30 In all, were the
guests of honor. They sat down to
were prepared for those attending the
carnival. Mashed potatoes, corn,
coffee and bread we're on the side.
Persons were there from all parts of
the world, says What to Eat. c.
Oliver Iselin, well-known yachtsman,
headed delegation from New York
city. A rooster supper was novelty
recently enjoyed by the Eat En- All
Club" a mems society of Paoh, Ind.
The menu was artistically designed,
with a rooster feather attached. The
decorations contained similar en-
blems and each guest was required to
come with a rooster feather in his
hat. The menu consisted of:
Rooster Rooster on slickers.
Boiled rooster. Slickers on rooster.
Fried rooster. Rooster salad.
Rooster punch. Rooster cocktail.
The Eat EN- All Club" is com
posed of married men, each of whom
in turn gives a dinner every two
weeks, that the men may all get at
least one good square meal every now
and then. The meals are prepared,
served and eaten by the men, and no
woman is permitted to have anything
to do with them. Not a female mem
ber of any of the households of the
club members is allowed to partici-
pate in the preparation or serving of
the meals. Members of this club are
firm in thet convictions that women
are wofully deficient in the culinary
art. With all the comforts of rail
road dining car and none OF the dis
comforts, 100 friends of Charles
Frederick DAILY, recently appointed
general traffic manager of the Wander
bilt lines east of Buffalo, dined
sumptuously and toasted their col
league ON the eve of his departure for
the east The dinner took place at
the Auditorium, the banquet hall on
the sixth floor having been trans
formed into an excellent imitation OF
a dining car, without forgetting even
the view from the windows. There
was the occasional toot toot and clang
to remind the diners of eating at the
rate of mile minute but there was
none of the smoke, cinders or rocking.

THE REPUBLICAN DUTY.
Stand Fast to the Historic Position
Of Protecting American
Welfare.

Mr.. Bryan's utterances in Berlin
make the Republican task of opposi-
ton somewhat simpler than has ap-
peared, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
From these utterances it is not
shown that a trip around the world
has taken the burs of the wilderness
from this wanderer from the Platte.
For Mr.. Bryan still looks revolu-
tionary. He talks Of free silver, of go
ing SO far with soci>lism, of changing
the basis of our prosperity, etc, etc.
He still fiirts with isms.
Thus it follows that a policy that at
tempts to compete with Organisms is
not going to win, for it is very evident
that Mr., Bryan still rejoices in his
radicalIsm.
And it does not lie in the way of Re-
publican duty to take up greater radi-
calism as means of combating him.
1t does not lie even in meeting him
half way.
Republican duty is to stand fast to
the historic position of the welfare
of the American nation-to hold to
our prosperity, not to indulge in
caprices that will overthrow it. This
is the simple proposition that will
confront the Republican party and its
candidates for the presidency.
And whoever its candidate shall be,
whether Mr.. Fairbanks or Mr.. Root or
Mr.. Cannon or any other, the simple
Republican fact that he must recognize
national prosperity as the basis of ma
tional life must ever be kept up
permost

William Sherring, the young Cana
dian who won the Marathon race at
Athens, gives the credit to his mother,
who, he says, supervised his training.
She decided what he should eat, and
would not cook anything else. When
she was told that he had won, she re-
marked, "Of course. ! knew he would.
That is what | sent him over for"
This IS a very pretty sentiment, re-
marks Youths Companion, but leaves
one in doubt as to what the other
young mems mothers said when told
that they had not won.

between Il and 25 per cent. of the
