His Scheme Worked.

It is related that a certain man was
recently very sad because his wife
had gone out of town IN a visit,
which she would not shorten in spite
of his appeals to her tc come home.
He finally hit upon a plan to induce
her to return. He sent her a copy Of
each of the local papers with n item
clipped out, and when she wrote to
find out what it was he had clipped
out he refused to tell her.
The scheme worked admirably! In
less than a week she was home to
find ont what it was that had been
going on that her husband didn't want
her to know about.-Pittsburg Press

PRETTY PARTY FOR BRIDE.
Unique Affair Thoroughly Enjoyed
by the Guests.

A very unique affair vas given re-,
Gently for a br~ide-to-be.
The guests were invited to a linen
shower and were also told to be pre-
pared to drink the brides health in
a toast.
After the arrival Of the 20 guests
and an exchange of greetings, the
packages, which had previously been
deposited on a small table, were
opened. The hostess announced that
a prize would be given for the most
ornamental gift, and another for the
most useful, and each guest was
given a slip of paper and pencil upon
which to vote.
Shortly after the prizes were
awarded the guests were invited into
the dining-room and seated at a LONG
table. The bare mahogany board was
laid with cluny lace over green. In
the center, resting on a high old
fashioned cake stand, was a wedding
cake covered with an elaborate icins
and topped with white doves. At in

A Paris Fad.

The new floral scarf-long and sup
pie as a length Of softest crepe or
chifion--is a novelty in Paris. These
charming items Of feminine attire are
becoming popular with theater goers,
and" writes a French correspondent,

made Of pure white violets and of tiny
dog roses. At the opera n night
last week I saw the still popular ma
rabou combined with small flowers
in a scarf, and the effect was excel.

Of palest gray marabou with long
lengths Of heliotropes between, and
the flowers we're arranged in such a
sklllful manner that they were quite
supple and the harmony Of color was
charming"

Fancy Work for Fall.

Even centerpieces show the color
influences, and we have gone back to
the solid embroidery on white linen,
where the whole effect depends on the
workers artistic sense and knowledge
of shading. These new floral designs
are holder than formerly, and we see
hydrangeas, peoples, hibiscus, azaleas,
or roses instead of dainty Dresden
flowers.
BY fall there promise to be many
new ideas in colored embroidery de-
veloped in wool and floselles. The
work is German in character, the de
signs modified art nouveau and the
coloring extremely rich in mahogany,
old blue, green, red and yellow tones
brought out by a black outline.
The stitches of this coming work
though intricate in appearance, are
really adaptations of wellSknowr
forms--as. for instance, a couchet
pineapple stitch or a much-slantet
satin stitch, barred in a different
color, or the satin stitch done in three
or four shades, which gives a wover
effect, or even the old-fashioned brial
stitch with the center caught In
contrasting color.

unique, and thoroughly enjoyed by
the guests.
The chairs were covered with
white, pictures of water and snow

mass of glittering diamond dust, from

polar bears bore the place cards.
Glass icicles hung from the chande-
lier. All the guests were requested
to wear white, and be prepared to tell
the coolest experience they had ever
had. No one was permitted to men

New York, Aug. 30.-The prelimi-
nary statement of the Erie Railroad
for the fiscal year ended June Both,
1906, made public to-day, shows gross
earnings of over $4,000, 900, an in
crease yer the previous year of s4.-
277, 900, and an increase in net of
$1,547,0
OF the increase in working expenses,
$2,73 900, an expenditure of more
than one million dollars was in main
tenance of the roadway, which was
given an unusually liberal allowance
of new steel rail and ties. Operating
expenses during the same period had
an additional charge of 100000, in
rehabilitating the equipment, the re-
suit being that the power has been
placed in an excellent condition for
increased business. The additional
expenditures in the improvement OF
the roadway and equipment are mani
testify in the right direction and are a
direct addition to the assets Of the
Company.
Not the least interesting showing Is
that the Company incurred an add
tional expense of only 100000, in con
Quoting the transportation of ovel
$4,000, 900, additional gross earnings
This is a further Indication that the
improvements which have been com
pleted are producing the desired re
s:lts in lessening the cost of transpor
tation. About $4,000, 900 of the Com
pany's income was used for further
improvements of the property during
the year, an increase of $566,00O owe
the previous year.
The Company is now better pre-
pared to handle a largely increases
business than aver before in its his
tory.

The double box plat which runs

Clear and Concise Statement of
Existing Differences Made by

SAYS BILL SHOULD NOT BE

ITS OBJEcT-MAY RESULT IN
COMPROMISE.
BY Associated Press

Washington, Mar. 1.-THE Senate
to-day continued the consideration of
the railroad rate question by listen
ing to the reading of the report of
the House bill by Mr.. Tillman and to
a speech by Mr.. Nelson.
Mr.. Tillman's report was read at
the request of Mr.. Aldrich who said
he was curious to hear the opinion of
the South Carolina senators.
In the report Senator Tillman en-
bodied the first clear and concise
statement of the differences concern
ing court review feature and other
proposed amendments that made a
unanimous report from the committee
impossible. Without hesitancy the
senator declared it to be his belief
that the bill should be amended, but
that the amendments should not be
of a character to impair or prevent
the accomplishment of the objects of
legislation which were set forth best.
he said, in the presidents message
to congress.
Brief attention was given by the
senate to the message of the presi-
dent. transmitting a letter of fne sec
rotary of war relative to the recent
Moro battle Mr. Bacon spoke of the
killing of the MOros as slaughter"
and M Lodge deprecated the criti-
cism until the facts should be known.

He declared that every dollar ever
spent by him on account Of the New

and approval Of the proper officers Of
t1e company. He said a bill should

peCleQ appearance and by the speech
he made or the intensely dramatic
character Of the whole episode.
His face flushed and his voice trem-

poured fourth a food of denunciation
and invective upon the members of
the board Of trustees Of the New York
Life, several of whom were present
The only name he mentioned was
tha, Of the late President Mccall. in
reference 10 whom and TO whose
death he displayed marked emotion.
He declared uneQUivOcaliy that
