GUARANTEED under the Food ant
however Speaker McClain and
President pro tenn Of the Senate
Woods intended to proceed on those
lines when they appointed the in
vestigators, it may also be assumed.
But Governor Stuart defeated that
purpose when he appointed James
A. Stranahan and James Scarlet
counsel for the State. They are
able and incorruptible and their
regulations are guarantees of thor
oughness. For that reason the
machine men understand that there
will be complete exposure. But
they hope to defeat the effect of it
by fulsomely praising the criminals.
They toolishly imagine that an ex-
preston of their confidence in a
man will secure him in public con-
fidence. No greater mistake was
ever made.
The only thing that could be said
against Stuart during the campaign
was that he was associated with the
gang and if Emery had been a trifle
more prudent with his tongue, that
affiliation would have defeated
Stuart. In view of the fact it is
folly for machine managers to
praise Pennypacker. He has been
caught in the act. The treasury
was looted beyond question and
Pennypacker aided in the operation.
The people understood this and
honied words from Murphy, Nc
Claim and Adjutant General Stuart
will not divert just popular indigna-
ton or obscure the palpable facts.
Restitution is probably out of the
question and criminal prosecutions
may be expedient. But public con-
demnation can run and should run
as long as the conspirators live.
HARD FIGHT FOR TROLLEY FREIGHT
The event of last weeks legisla-
tive proceedings was the fight made
by Mr.. Greasy, supported by nearly
all his Democratic colleagues, for
effective legislation authorizing
trolley railroaes to carry freight.
1t occupied nearly all of last Thurs
day and was decidedly the most
spirited incident of the season, and
probably the most significant. 1t
has been discovered that there is a
possibility of defeating the legisla-
ton in question by collusion be-
tween the steam and trolley roads.
That is to say the steam roads
could acquire control in trolley lines
to refuse freight by paying bonus.
To avert this danger Mr.. Greasy
proposed to make the carrying of
freight compulsory upon the part
of the trolley lines. This was re-
sisted by the greatest vehemence
and some profanity by the agents
of the steam railroads on the floor.
The Speaker came down from his
handsome rostrum and engaged in
the debate and finally Greasy was
defeated.
It was expected, of course, that
the members from Philadelphia and
Pittsburg would vote in the inter
est of the steam roads. So far as
the Philadelphians are concerned
they are practically appointed in
the Broad Street station Offices and
the Pittsburgers are not much bet
ter. But when the Republicans
from York, Cumberland, Crawford,
Armstrong, Fayette, Erie, Warren,
Jefferson, Blair and Dunmore ol
Tioga voted against the interests o
the people the complete dominance
of the machine is revealed. Duns
more has completely surrendered
to the machine. He is as much
the instrument of that sinister or

Spring Humors

Impure or effete matters accumulated
in the blood during the winter cause in the
spring such disfguring and painful troubles
as boils, pimpes, and other eruptions, also
weakness, loss of appetite, that tired feeling.

Use foo Old Newspapers

The modern newspaper is a very giant
in proportion to its progenitOrs of half
a century ago; nor Is 1t entirely useless
when il has been read.
People who expect 20 move should
keep all the old newspapers they can
get hold Of. for they are invaluable for
wrapping up china to pack in barrels.
for wrapping books and TO lay between
picture frames to keep them from
scratching.
Newspapers do nicely also to lay at
the bottom of kitchen drawers and
closets to keep them clean, a great ad-
vantage being that the newspapers may
be constantly renewed and burned up
when sOiled- OF creased.
Old papers to be thrown away should
not. of course, be put into the same re-
Ceptable as ashes, for the latter are
often too hCt when removed from the
range or furnace, and so might ignite
the papers More fires result from this
cause than is often realized by careless
housekeepers. But let the papers be
put into a safe corner, well away from
| fires and ashes If they are to be thrown
away; If not. they must still be kept

| ceptacle,

M that household linen has its
fashions, with everything else.
At present white is In great IA

rich lace. For luncheon the table cloth
is out Of fashion. A fine Chinese mat
is put on the table itself, and before
each guest round or square serVietJe

embroidered with .colOred flowers. For
large dinner parties white linen is in
greatest favor. The linen IS as richly
trimmed as possible, with renaissance
or Colbert lace. The napkins and table

For curtains hung beneath heavy
silk or wool, India muslin is used. Cow
cred with fOunces, It serves as a kind
of blind. The fOUnces are edged with
fine SuVered ribbon, an effect that is
newer than trimmings or fllet or lace.

According 20 a German story. the mis-
sion OF providing Easter eggs for poor
children whose parents could not buy
them was committed 10 compassionate
rabbits who. at that season alone, laid
eggs of varied hues by the nestful IN

Easter morning.

L as they were boiled. to make the
shells slip of easily. Five min

SPAIN FEN FETE
Great Rejoicing Throughout the King dom Over th1 Birth of Royal
 Heir.

Madrid, My l..--There was little sleep in Spain last night. Public re- joicing over the birth of an heir to the throne continued everywhere until almost morning. In the provinces the church bells were rung, there was music in the streets of the various towns and aims were distributed to the poor. The capital was brilliantly Illuminated; there was great dis play of fireworks and regimentai bands marching through the streets, which wer ethronged, and cafes were crowded until almost daylight By the Kings order sumptuOus supper was served at midnight to the troops com posing the garrisons throughout Spain. Dawn was breaking when the weary crowds sought their homes. Queen Victoria and the baby passed a satisfac- tory night, and this morning the condi- ton of both mother and child was pronounced to be excellent.
