Egs-cosy Can Be Easily Made in
Few Spare Minutes.

One of those pretty and useful little
articles that can be made out of
almost any remnant of material in
spare moments is an egg-cosy. It is
no new idea, but one always well
worth remembering when we wish to
fill UP idle moments. We give a

Wltnss,.d Stirring Scenes.

When the war was getting ready to
break, young Sobiesld's battery was
ordered recruited to its full strength
and the young Pole was ordered to
New York and Washington on recruit
ing duty, witnessing the Inauguration
OF Lincoln, the closing debates in the
senate and many other stirring
scenes.
He went all through the civil war
and was terribly wounded the first
day of the battle of Gettysburg. 1t
was his privilege to be an eyewitness
to the most dramatic battle in naval
history, the first fight of the ironclads,
the fight between the Merrlmac and
the Monitor.
After the war he went into Mexico
and began another fight for a peoples
freedom. He lived the hunted life of
a guerrilla warrior, eating rattlesnakes
and living a precarious life off the
country. He was commissioned a col
onel. He seemed to have a charmed
life. He came through a hundred
thrilling escapades mhurt-once be-
ing the only man of an entire COM
mand to survive.

directors of this company, held to-
day (January 18th), l was Instructed
to hand you our subscription for $500
towards the new building fund Of the
Y. NJ. C. a.
Two beg to say that. aside from
the benefits to be conferred on the
young men and boys OF our city by
=. the now building, we feel that our
subscription Is Justified from the
standpoint of advertising the city's
resources and demonstrating its pub
lie spirit"
The letter was read by General Secre-
tary Mckee. and was received as an
indication OF the good effect that the
work Of the young men Is having, as
we'll as an appreciation of the needs of
the association.
Rev. Dr. w. ]. Young, pastor of Cen
tenary NJ. T. Church, was visitor at
headquarters yesterday, and expressed his
best wishes for the success of the cam
paign.
After some Investigations made yester-
day by tho executive committee. 1t was
ascertained that never before has any
city in the United States been asked to
raise $4,000 in the short term of fifteen
days. To do this will be not only a
unique honor for Richmond but it will
be one of the most practical advertise
ments that this city has had for many
years.
1t will mean that in many ways Rich
mond will take leading place in the
South and, in some ways, in the United
States. The business men of this city
are on trial, and the eyes OF the entire
country are on them. Dispatches are
sent all over the country recording the
progress of the campaign, and when it
closes, if there is any eulogy or praise,
it will be known in every large centre
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The members OF the association will
be organized Monday evening to take
part in the campaign. luncheon will
be served at some place In the central
part of the city, 81 chairman will be Sc
lected, and the committee of one hundred
will be divided into teams similar to
those of the young business mems COM

Missouri In the Primary Column.
Even Maine Is WAKING Up.

Missouri In he Primary Column.
Missouri is the newest state to join
her sisters that have enacted laws pro-
viding that all candidates for elective
Office be chosen at a general state pri-
mary, held on the same day by all par
ties, at the expense Of the state. A
number Of the southern states, such as
South Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee,
Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Virgin
ia and Mississippi, have already en-
acted such laws.
1t means the passing away of that
very picturesque gathering, the state
political convention. I have always
maintained that the closer the govern
ment is brought to th~esindividual voter
the better it will be. In a primary ev-
cry man is of the same size, and his
vote counts one, and trickery, wire
pulling and slick manipulation have to
take a back seat. I hail the coming Of
the state primary with satisfaction. I
have commended for it for years. In the

honor to represent it has been in use
for thirteen years, this having been the
first district In the state to adopt the

Gently that there has been much men

gested. Among the Republicans the
one whose name most frequently APP

High Priced Bread.

The sunshine and the rain, by the
subtle alchemy of nature converted in
to walls of corn and golden fields of
wheat, have done much for the Repub-
lican party. Fortune has favored the
Republicans, and with infinite gall they
have seized the advantage and have
even boosted that Providence was on
the side of 1.-The great party Of God and
morality"
Pagan Bob Ingersoll in his wonder
full burst of word painting which in
metaphoric rhapsody described the re-
treat of Napoleon from Moscow ex-
claimed, 1.-The infantry of the snow
and the cavalry of the wild blast scat
tered his legions like winters withered
leaves"
We are told that the backward
spring, the heavy rains and the de-
structive insects, combined with the
constant trend upward in the price of
all commodities, are putting the price
Of wheat at such a point that bread is
bound to rise-that we will have either
a higher priced loaf than we have to-
day OF else a smaller loaf for the same
price.
At last the rising tide of costly liv-
ing has reached the danger mark, the
mark of grave danger to the party in
power. 1t was high priced bread that
drove the system of protection from
the British empire. 1t was high priced
bread that made England a free trade
nation more than sixty years ago and
that she will probably remain forever.
1t "a high priced bread that sent the
king and queen of France to the block,
creating that revolution that drenched
Paris in blood. Bread is the staff Of
life, but dear bread is the harbinger of
political death. 1t is the final straw
that always breaks the cancels back.
High clothing, high meat, high neces-
sites of various sorts-these come, pro-
duce comment and complaint, and then
the people get used to it, but when
bread goes up-well, there seems to be
a sacredness about it, like the ark of
the covenant, that none may touch it
and live. The Republican party has
survived much, has faced much, has
schemed and fought and bought and
bartered and sold for political power
and continuance, but it has never met
so dangerous a foe as dear bread. If
it goes up, it will be to the Republican
party as were "the infantry of the
snow and the cavalry Of the Wild
blast" to 1.-THE silent man of destiny"
Whether it be the trust magnate or
the green bug that puts up the price of
bread will make little difference to the
laborer with children to feed. He will
vote to GUST the party under whose adj
ministration it became dear, reasoning
that if they claim the credit for the
bounty of nature they should take the
blame if she grows parsimonious.
