.aLooDFlELr's REPUTATION NOT
IMPROVED.

Bloodfields reputation, none too
savory at best, has not been improved
by the treatment accorded the negro
lawyer Toliyer, who has been con-
fined in the Warwick county jail
since Tuesday in spite of the fact that
his friends are willing and anxious
to furnish bail for his appearance be-
fore the Circuit Court TO prosecute
an appeal from the sentence of the
magistrate under which be was lock-
ej-up.
Toliver WIS convicted In Justice

niable fact that the negro had not
paid his license. but II Is equally as
true that the license for this year.

has been paid by only two or three
of all the members OF the bar In this
city. Very few professional or busi-
ness men pay their licenses on the
day they are due, and the commits
sioner never thinks of attempting to
enforce payment until at least thirty
days have passed. Therefore, the
proceeding against this negro was I'M
usual, to say the least 1t was so
unusual that one is justified in be-
iieying that any other lawyer in the
State who had not paid his license

authorities agreed two days ago to ad-

The Daily Press has nothing to say
for this NEGRO as an individual. Toll

Recovery Takes Place on the
Stock Exchange.
RUMORS ARE DISPR0sED
Quality Of Alarming Reports is Stamp
ed by Traders as Source With
Operators Seeking to Force De-
cline in Prices.
CIV Associated Press.l

NEW YORK. May 26.-The recoy-
cry of stocks today was owing, IN
large part, to the disproof OF the
fumors OF dangerous developments
which came into circulation while
prices were falling yesterday. The
quality OF these rumors In itself
stamped the source of them with
operators seeking to force decline
in prices. With the realization oil
this fact there was no further eager
ness on the part of holders of stocks
10 let them go. The bears, on the
other hand, were nervous over being
left In an exposed position and Were
inclined to cover shorts.
These conditions were sufficient to
account for q natural rebound In the
market. Superimposed upon. them
we're a number of favorable develop
ments of a more positive character.
OF these the violent break in the
wheat market was the most consid-
cred. owing to the far reaching impli-
cations carried with It.
The technical side of the specula.
ton in wheat was not lost sight OF
IN taking account Of the price move
ment there, especially the reports
that private settlements had been eff
fected with the shorts in that market.
Opinions OF the crop prospects are
growing much more confident as
shown by the hopeful views ex-
pressed by the price current. AS
surances of abundant harvests and
with a price adjustment which would
revive foreign demand and correct
the dislocated foreign trade position,
would' clear up practically all doubt
full points in the present outlook.
Engagements of gold today for
shipment to Canada emphasizes the
importance of the harvests. There
was a renewal of rumors today on
this subject which pointed TO large
exten 3ion of the sales effected and the
helated official announcement of the
ST. Paul s50,000,000 bond sale, was
made.

Woman Of Business Turn OF Mino
Makes Money for Both Grocer
and Herself.

Making !ellies, preserves and canned
goods Is one OF the standard occupa-
lions for women of the present day'
but one woman has made so business
like and profitable an arrangement
with regard to her source of supply OF
fruits that she deserves mention
among those who have developed an
original idea She arranged with ner
grocer to take all his fruit which was
not sold during the day, to make 1t up
into canned goods, preserves or cor
dials. and to place 1t with him for sale.
She proved to him that her goods
were first class in every particular.
and he was glad to add them to MS
stock. He also found that he had an
added advantage in the perfect fresh
ness of all his fruits which were
offered to customers. Every grocer
reckons upon a certain amount OF loss
from perishable goods Of this nature,
since 1t is impossible for him to esti-
mate exactly how many boxes of ber.-
ries or how many dozen pineapples
he can sell. Under such an arrange
ment this loss was eliminated.
There are many women who could
put up fruit successfully. who have
not seen how they could secure the
supply they needed while living in the
city. Perhaps this woman's method
may help to solve their problem.

CONCERNING THE DINING ROOM
Some Matters of Moment That Are
Worth Retaining In the
Memory.

Coffee may be served either from
the kitchen or from an urn placed on
the table in front. of the hostess.
Cheese is passed on separate
plate. not placed upon the pie plates
by the hostess. Cheese sticks are
served with salad and sometimes with
after-dinner coffee.
Never wash gilt-banded or gold-dec-
Grated china with a strong. acid soap.
It will eat off the gold. 1t remains
uninjured If pure white soap is used.
The shining sideboard has disap-
peared. This article is now built in"
the dining room. It has low mirror
back of the lowest shelf and lead
glass doors In small diamond shapes.
The woodwork Is white.
A nice supper dish Is one of pot:ed
beef and mashed sweet potatoes thor
oughly mixed together, nodded in the
form of croquettes and fried in butter.
The mixture should be seasoned with
salt and pepper and the mashed sweet
potatoes entirely free from Jumps. Use
about one-third potted beef to two
thirds sweet potato. Fry the cro-
quotes until a rich brown and take
care that they do not burn.

f'PIcKED UP" THE LANGUAGE
Novel Manner In Which New York
Manufacturer Learned to Speak
Italian.

There are many ways of acquiring
a foreign language, but an unusual
method in which a reading and
speaking knowledge of Italian was
obtained in ten months was ex-
planned in downtown importing
house, says the New York Tribune.
The president Of. the company ex-
pressed desire to learn the italian
tongue, but he said he had little
time to give up to study. The house
had dealings with firms in Italy and
as it proposed to increase its italian
trade the president was anxious to
learn the language. He spurned
studying from books and declined to
give up any of his time in the Office
or at home. Finally he hired one of
the best italian instructors in New
York to accompany him in his auto
mobile going to the office in the
morning and returning to his home
at night. Two hours of instruction
each day going to and from the Of
fec amounted to about 50 lessons a
month and in ten months the s'boss"
had studied SO hours and learned
Italian.

Gliding Picture Frames.

The method of gliding picture
frame is as follows; The plain wooden
molding is first given a coat of oil
paint. and from four to ten coats Of
fine whiting mixed with fine glue are
put on, each In its turn being
smoothed with fine sandpaper. This
done, a coat of goldsize Is given to
those parts which are not to be
FURNISHED, but those which are, re-
ceive only coating Of clear animal
size. The gold leaf is then laid on,
and FURNISHED where desired. In
stead Of real gold leaf. Dutch metal,
which is simply copper beaten like
goldleaf. is sometimes used, as is also
the so-called gold paint, which is fine
ly powdered brass or similar alloy
mixed with size.

REFERRED TO THE TREASURER
Neat Reply Of British Labor Leader
That Got Him Out Of Rather
Tight Situation.

He who goes into politics must re-
member what he is recorded to have
said, for it is the habit of the sharp
nosed public to search out past ut
terances and hold the candidate re-
sponsible for them. John Burns,
says Mr.. Grubb, in his life of that
labor leader, once made the slip of
remarking that no man was worth
more than $500 year. Accord
lngly, when he became a cabinet
member with salary Of $4,000, he
was obviously open to attack.
When he first met his constituents
at Battersea after he was made presi-
dent Of the local government board,
a candid friend recalled the state
ment about mans worth by call
ing out in the middle of his speech !:
1eWot abaht that ere salary of
s2,oO0?"
Mr.. Burns was equal to the occa-
sion.
''That is the recognized trade
union rate for the job" was his apt
reply. eff l took less I would be a
blackleg." =
''Wot yer goin' ter do with the ff-
teen hundred pounds over?" pur-
sued the inquisitive questioner.

Burns, "apply to my treasurer, Mrs.

At Our Best.

No man Is the man he might have
been-no man will become the man
he may be-who does not come to
know Jesus Christ Christ Is an ap-
peal to manhood. His is the power
to awaken. To know him is call
to the heights, the latent energies OF
ones better self. Peter came to know
him and the vacillating became the
granite of stability. Thomas came to
know him, and hesitation yielded to
assurance. Bartimeus came to know
him, and sightless eyes began to see.
Zacchaeus came to know him, and In.
Justice became fourfold power of in
tegrity. Paul came to know him, and
the prosecutor became the apostle.
Bunyan came to know him, aid the
profaner became the pilgrim! The
same transformations are being
wrought in this day, for, warns and
sweet, and tender, even yet, present
help is he.
In Christ we see ourselves at our
best. Looking into the face Of Jesus
we are transformed into the same
image. Rev. Ellsworth Higley, D. D

KNOWN AS TRAVELLERS PSALM
Number 1871 Has Been the Favorite Of
Many Men of Worldwide
Prominence.

Psalm 121 has been appropriately
called the travellers psalm. It be-
gins with the words II will lift up
mine eyes unto the hills" So ap-
propriate indeed is this psalm for
the use Of pilgrims or travellers that
many good men have habitually used
it before setting out for a journey.
1t was the custom Of Bishop Hooper
of Gloucester, who was afterward
burnt at the stake within sight of
his cathedral, to recite this psalm
before leaving home on his diocesan
duties. David Livingstone read
this psalm with his father and
mother before he left home for At
RIGA. t'On the morning of the elev-
enth November, $780," writes his
sister, eve got up at five o'clock. Ny
mother made coffee. David read
Psalm 121 and prayed. Then my
father and he walked to Glasgow to
catch the Liverpool steamer" In
like manner we are told of Bishop
Harrington, who followed in the
train of Livingstone, that every
morning during his long and dan
gerous journey from Frere Town to
Lake Victoria Nyanza, he was &C.
customed to greet the sunrise by re-
peating his travelling psalm 81
will lift up mine eyes unto the hills"
