often small entirely lacking, is a con-
venience that the average woman will be
glad to possess, especially when she knows
that 1t is inexpensive, and may even be
made at home If She has enough ingenuity.
This new portable closet is made of a
round piece of white wood that is from a
quarter to an inch IN thickness, and NAV

cording as 1t Is to be used for the support
and protection of one or more skirts

screwed into the center, for it is used to

PREVENT ILLNESS.
Boiling Drinking Water As a Wise
Precaution.

Drinking impure water through the sum-
mer when away from home is one great
cause Of Illness in the autumn, and should
be avoided by simple precautions possible
for every housekeeper to take. Everybody
knows that water which has been boiled
and tightly fastened as soon as the steam
ceases to rise is pure, but, unfortunately,
this gives a slightly undesirable flavor of
fatness to the taste This lack of fresh
ness may be obviated by pouring 1t after
boiling from one vessel to another, thus
clearing Hvening it.
The old housewives home made filter con-
sisting merely of a thick piece of flannel
tied over a faucet, is a strainer, but in no
way a filter. 1t will not in the least clear
out the organic matter and should not be
regarded a safety device.
Quickime is a good purifier of water that
one may be obliged to use in camp, and
the method is simple piece of lime weigh
ing about pound is put into a cloth and
dropped into a pail of water. AS
the water has stopped boiling" take out
the lime and let the water stand for an
lour at least. The surface should then be
skinned and the water remaining three
inches above the bottom may be poured
off and drunk. The lower three inches are
not good. Alum neutraliZes an earthly taste,
and half a teaspoonful to a gallon Of water
will be enough. Let this stand for
couple of hours and then filter
Unless one understands more than does
the usual housekeeper of what the proper
and safe situation of well should be, the
dictum should be made in a household
where the water supply is drawn in this
way that none should be drunk until first
boiled. 1t should then be bottled and placed
In cool spot to be chilled before using.
1t is unfortunate fact that a well which
may seem all right may really be a fer
tile source of typhoid and no unnecessary
risks should be taken.
There are extremely simple tests of pur-
ity that may be applied to water to know
its condition, and of these the Hirsch meth
cd is simple. This consists of filing a pint
white glass bottle two-thirds full of water
and putting in half a teaspoonful of granu-
lated sugar. The bottle should then be
fastened with a glass stopper and put into
a light. warm room-the kitchen. for in
stance. After forty-eight hours 1t should
be examined. and If found to be cloudy 1t
is not good to drink without first fltering,
or disinfecting, as it were
The fact that water is clear and has no
odor by no means indicates purity, and
this should be borne in mind when picnic
Ing and happening upon a spring. Unless
the water flows from stony source, one
knows to be pure, 1t should be let alone, no
matter how thirsty one is, unless, of course,

The officers Of the Department of the Dis
trict of Columbia. United Spanish War Vet
Grams, are closing up their accounts and
compiling their annual reports preparatory
TO submitting them to the annual encamp-
ment of the department to be held in G. A.
X. Hall, August 8. One of the important
matters to be transacted at the coming
meeting will be the election of officers to
serve one year. The name of Capt. Rich
mond Pearson Hobson had been proposed as
a candidate for department comma nder. but
in letter received from him by leading
member Of the organization yesterday he
reiterates his positive decision not to allow
his friends to enter him In the race. Rep
resentative Hobson says he does not believe
any man should accept an office unless he
is prepared to give his time and attention to
its duties, and this he feels he could not do
should he be elected to the commandership
of the Department of the District.
The other candidates whose names are
mentioned in Connection with the honor are
Capt. Edward l.. Cogan. commander of Rich
ard J. Harden Camp: Maj. Joseph Milton
Heller. commander of Henry w. Lawton
Camp. and Past Department Adjutant G. E.
RausCh
During the present administration 1t is
said the membership of the local depart
ment has nearly doubled. and five new
camps have been instituted, as follows:
Gen. Andrew s. Burt Camp of this city;
Fitzhugh Lee Camp of Richmond, Va;
Thomas Camp of Wilmington, Del; Roe
Camp of Fredericksburg, Va, and Young
(colored) Camp of this city. The financial
condition of the organization here is said to
be in excellent shape and the esprit du
corps good.
The commander-in -chef Capt. Hamilton
Ward, on the occasion of his recent visit
to Washington, declared that the District
Department was one of the finest in the
United States.

EMPLOYERS MAKE DENIAL.
Report Of Refusal to Meet Bricklayers
Declared to Be Incorrect.

The statement that the Employers Asso-
citation has refused a conference with the
Bricklayers' Union was denied yesterday by
an officer OF the organization Of employers.
The communication from the bricklayers
was received and given consideration, 1t is
said. but as the purpose Of the proposed
conference was not made clear, the secre-
tary of the employers was instructed at last
secretary Of the Bricklayers' Union and ask
that body to state more explicitly what
matters were to be brought before the sug-
gested conference committee.
An employer stated that it appeared to be
the purpose Of the bricklayers to reopen
the entire matter in controversy in the
plumbers dispute, which has been twice
arbtrated.'' If such is the case. he added,
he believes the Employers Association will
decline to go into the matter
Another employer said there would prob
ably be no objection to holding a confer
ence should it be shown that such a meet
ing would tend to bring about better condi-
tons in the building trades.
But" he added, ut is too ALFRED hot to
waste time and effort on a useless expendi-
ture of words without prospect or tangible
results to follow
It ia expected when the board of gov
ernors OF the Employers Association meets
next Tuesday or Wednesday a reply will
and the matter will be disposed Of.
The statement was made yesterday after
noon that several master painters had dis
CHARGED their union workmen and replaced
them with non-unionists.
AZ labor headquarters this afternoon the
statement was made that matters are in
statu quo but that some developments are
expected next week.

OFFER CUP AS PRIZE
METHOD OF PROCURING EFF
CIENCY IN TARGET PRACTICE.

The Secretary Of the Navy has received
from ]. Grant Hinke. adjutant of Gen.
Charles King Camp, No. 4, United Spanish
War Veterans, of Spokane, Wash, propo-
sition for the city of Spokane to give a
s. 500 cup to the Atlantic fleet prize
for yearly efficiency in target practice. The
cup is to be held by the winning ship until
it is captured by another war vessel Of the
same fleet. This proposition has received
the hearty Endorsement of the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce. 1t is also proposed,
Adjutant Hinkle says. that should the WIN
ming ship be transferred to another squad
ron while holding the cup it will turn over
the trophy to the commanding officer of the
Atlantic fleet who will present it to the
winning battleship or cruiser at the next
annual practice.
In letter to the department commander
of the Spanish War Veterans of the Dis
trict of Columbia, Mr.. Hinkle says:
I'VE have some live wires in King Camp
who enjoy doing things of this sort, and
will get this up in short order. Indorsing
President Roosevet's policy of encouraging
the gunners in the American navy, l.. G.
Monroe secretary of the Spokane Chamber
Of Commerce, has forwarded the following
communication to Secretary Metcalf:
I'm accordance with instructions from
the board of trustees of the Spokane Cham
Der of Commerce, l have the honor to adj
wise that our citizens are DESTROYS of pre-
senting a s1,5G0 silver cup to the United
manship. While Spokane is an inland city,
several of her are in the navy, and
public sentiment here is strong in it's in
dorsement of President Roosevelt's policy
of encouragement to the man behind the
gum
Reason to Be Proud.
Spokane has reason 10 be proud Of the
country's new navy and the men who wear
the blue. Less than year ago there was
unveiled in this city a costly monument
erected by our citizens to the memory of
Ensign John Robert Monaghan OF Spokane,
a gallant member of the navy, who sacri-
feed his life defending wounded COM
rade, Lieut.. Philip V. Lansdale Of the
United States cruiser Pluta, during the
skirmish with the natives near Apia, Sa-
mOa. April l, 1889.
I'VE submit for approval of your depart
ment the following proposition: A silver
trophy, which will be known as the 'Spo-
kane cup, and which shall be competed for
by the ships of the Atlanuc fleet in annual
target practice, the cup to go to the win
ming ship-that is, to the crew which shall
be awarded the best score of target practice
under the navy rules governing such events.
The cup shall be competed for annually,
and in the event the winning ship is trans
ferred during the time the prize is held by
1t to some other squadron the Spokane cup
is to be Earned over to the commander of
the next target practice of his feet and
then awarded by him to the winning ship
as before
Il may say that the suggestion of do
mating this naval trophy came from Spo-
kane boy, Ray Spear, paymaster United
States Navy, now stationed at Mare Island
If this meets with your approval we
shall be pleased to submit designs and any
Information you may think necessary in
the premises
