Mayor stoy Talking at Random

If Atlantic City would retain the
confidence of investors in its credit,
it would do we'll to restrain the exu-
berance of Its Mayor. AT the meeting
last week of the Municipal League of
Seashore Resorts, Mayor Stoy under
took to tell Cape May the policy it
should adopt in order to rival Atlantic
City's proud pre-eminence. "You
must loosen up" he said. "This is the
secret of Atlantic City's success.
When we need anything we loosen up
and get it. If there is a squeal about
bonds, we issue more"
Prudent investors when offered mu-
nicipal bonds not only pay heed to the
present financial condition of the mu-
nicipality seeking the loan, but to its
general official atmosphere. Is it
governed by cautious, conservative
business on sound business principles?
Is there an evident purpose to limit
the public debt TO a figure where the
fixed charges a be comfortably met,
and for necessary public improve
ments, or is there a spirit of reckless
extravaganza and waste lulness which
piles one issue of bonds on top of an
other to the verge of bankruptcy and
until the bulk of the money raised by
taxation must be used to pay interest
on the debt?
If it is the policy of Atlantic City TO
answer the appeals of property owners
for economy in municipal affairs by
mourning more debt, the effects of such
a policy will soon show themselves in
impaired credit and inability to mar
ket its securities at advantageous rates.
That is one kind of ''loosening up"
that certainly will not pay in the end.
Perhaps, however, Mayor Stoy's re-
marks should not be taken seriously
when the man, the subject and the oc-
casion are all considered. Atlantic
City's reputation as a law-defying
community has done enough to hurt
its credit without the added imputa-
ton of financial recklessness. But
Mayor Stoy should remember the par
rot story.-Newark News.

THE RAGE FOR PELTS
Extinction of Fur Bearing Animals
Threatened by Prevailing Demand.

VI fS
Threatened by Prevailing Demand.
One of the matters which men pro-
TESS not to understand Is how 1t is
possible for women to pass one winter
clad in diaphanous material and to
load themselves down with the heavi-
est fabrics the next. Looking back, 1t
does seem rather wonderful that so
many women escaped pneumonia last
winter. This season, however, they
have gone to the other extreme and
are as warmly clad as If they We're
living In Labrador. Last winter 1t was
simply a case of 'shivefing, but styl-
ish;' now it is possible to be in the
height of the mode and still be COM
Portable in the coolest weather. 1t is
now the style to look snug and warm.
So universal is the rage for pelts
that the extinction of all fur bearing
animals is threatened. Nothing is re-
garGed as more modish $han a fur
coat to the heels, and a few ultra lux
urious women are wearing outer gar
ments of fur which sweep the ground.
All the edges of outdoor costumes are
bordered with fur, and more than one
kind is used on a single garment.
Coats are fastened well over the chest
and come up high in the neck. In
place of the pumps and low shoes of
last winter, worn with openwork
stockings, calfskin boots with fur tops
are prescribed.
Even the head is protected as it has
not been for many a season. The
fashionable turban shapes envelop the
head comfortably and are effectual
against the wind. Muffs are still enor-
nous. Some of them contain five en-
tire skins of sable.
1t is predicted that the spring will
see the ruffled skirt in full vogue.
Even now there are cloth costumes,
with short coats and skirts having
three circular rufles IN a silk founda-
ton. These skirts are worn without
petticoats, and the effect is slender
and decidedly graceful. OF ours
such a skirt Is out of place with a
long coat, but it is a fact that the
short coat is gradually coming in.
Some of the plated models in short
skirts have a stitched band around
the hips. This is not put on in the
old time way, straight around the fig
ure. 1t is started at the waist line,
the ends of the band being together or
crossed. They swing down the front
of the skirt. around the hips and up
toward the belt at the back.
The turban in its endless modifica-
tons is as popular as ever and now
threatens to survive the winter and
reach over into the spring. Spring Gre
atoms In this favorite shape are o

RAILROAD
a r

The nub of railroading is frst-class equipment and reliable
service. The Pennsylvania Railroad provides this for the public.
For many months big aT-steel coaches, built like Dreadnaughts,
have been operated on all through trains. Their e~asy-riding
qualities and steadiness of motion have been widely praised. The
alsteel dining cars too have distinct advantages over the wooden
ones. They are stronger and steadier, and the act of eating is
made more enjoyable by the smoother movement.
There are also some steel Pullman Cars-Combined Parlor-
Smokers and Baggage-in the service now. Travellers like them.
They have plenty of elbow room and they glide over the rails.
The Sleeping Cars are coming. Some four hundred parlor and
sleeping cars will be in use by Summer.
These steel coaches and cars are the strongest vehicles ever
built for passenger transportation. They are fire proof, break
proof and bend proof. They represent the climax of safety and
the perfection of comfort in railroad travel.
The Pennsylvania Railroad has always been the leader in all
manner of improved equipment as we. as in all methods of making
their patrons more comfortable. This is why it is known and
honored as The Standard Railroad of America.

The Steam Enoine.


 The Marquis of Worcester while thr prisoned in the Tower of London in 1858 invented and constructed a per feet steam engine and had 1t publicly exhibited the same year at VauxhaU in successful operation. Thirty-fouY years later, in 1890, Dennis Papin add cd the piston to the marquis discovery. In 1898 Captain Savary devised and built steam engine different in many details from those made by Worcester and Papin, and in 17O5 Newcomb, Cav. ley and Savary constructed their cele brated atmospheric engine, which was complete in every detail. The above array of historical facts notwithstand. ing. James Watt, who was not born until sixty years after these great men had given the steam engine to the world, enjoys the distinction of being the veritable inventor, originator and author of the most useful contrivance of the present day. Fulton, who lived and worked in the early part of the nineteenth century, is given the credit of being the man who demonstrated that steam could be applied to naviga. tion-this. too, in face of the well known historical fact that De Gary propelled vessel by steam in the har- bor of Barcelona in 1543.-St. James Gazette.

10 HOUSE VETERANS
 IN WAR TENTS
Government Will Be Asked to Pro- vide Sleeping Quarters for Old Soldiers When They Gather
 at Little Rock.

Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 2S.-The lodging committee of the Confeder- ate Veterans reunion to be held here next May has held an informal meet ing and will make an effort to se cure from the War Department the necessary tents to provide sleeping quarters for 10000 Confederate Vet erans.
 Cots will also be asked for, and the tent city will be pitched in the City Park.
 The committee will ask the City Council to allow it the use of the park, which will surely be granted, though it has been refused on every previous occasion. The streets ad- Joining the park will all be closed so vehicles cannot enter to disturb the veterans. There is a rule of the War Department which prevents tents or soldiers of the United States, being used on occasions of this kind, but all rules are flexible if the right pres sure is brought to bear upon the men higher up. This will be done through the intercession of prominent Repub- licans of Arkansas, and former Fed eral soldiers. Powell Clayton, the most unpopular man in Arkansas, so far as natives of the state are con- cerned, on account of his carpetbag- ger days record, will turn this trick for the old soldiers. Powell Clayton stands near the throne at Washing ton, and it is through him the com- mittee expects to secure the tents, al- SO United States soldiers to police the streets or participate in the pa rades, just as the committee desires. Only ex-Confederates will be allow ed to sleep in the tent city, where the meals will be provided for the city's guests, meal tickets being issued to the veterans daily. It is probable the street cars of the city will also be free to the veterans.

There was brought before him an Irish American charged with suspicious con duct. The officer making the arrest stated, among other things, that the culprit was wearing Republican hat"
 Docs your honor know what that means" was the inquiry put to the court by the accused's lawyer.

CoIors of the Stars.

Although there is no relation ap- parent between the two phenomena, yet 1t is interesting to recall the fact that among the stars certain colors ap- pear to characterize different stages of change, or evolution. Red stars, &C., cording to the testimony of the spec troscope, differ widely in their consti- tuition from white or yellow ones, and it has been thought that varying col ors may give a clew to progressive changes in the heavenly bodies. Sirius. for instance, Is said to have changed from red to white, and some have sus- pected that Arcturus is fading from red toward yellow.

MUCH INTEREST
 IN ARKANSAS
German Farmer Who Got the AIthei- mer Farm Presented it to
 His Wife.

Chicago, Nov. 27.-Manager G. P. Chicago Land Show is kept very busy answering the many questions asked E5 the great crowd of visitors concerning farm lands in Arkansas He says that since Arkansas day there has been greater interest in Arkansas lands than any other State.
 In giving away the farm, donated by Ben Altheimer, a glass jar of beans was used, and each visitor was al- lowed one guess at the number of beans the jar contained. Charles Scheuerer, progressive German, now shipping clerk in the plant of F. Potzack, manufacturing concern at Grand Crossing, Chicago, was the fortunate guesser. He has given his farm to his wife, because, he says, my wife has always wanted to own something, so I gave her the prize for Thanksgiving present. It was the happiest Thanksgiving we ever spent. I am busy here in Chicago and may not be able to go to Arkansas for a year, but my wife will go and can attend to the direction of her land, and we will probably eventually make our home there.'
 Laboring men of Chicago are at tending the show in great numbers. The clamor for farm lands has been so great and the guessing contest SD successful that Manager Waters hopes before the close of the show to se- cure another small tract of good land to give away. Mr. Waters has learn ed that Charles Scheurer is leader among the Germans in Chicago, and he will no doubt be instrumental in bringing many more of his sturdy race to Arkansas.
 MT. Waters was fortunate in se- curing for the Little Rock booth a real old Southern black nanny over ninety years old. He asked where she was born and she replied, Mas sa, I was born at Charleston, s. C.. the capital of the United States She was slave at one time in Arkansas She is giving away cotton seed and describes in the true negro fashion just the way cotton is raised. She is a great booster for Arkansas, and wishes she could come back to the Sunny South to spend her last days.

 Animals Arc Poor Sailors.

The polar bear is the only wild ami. nal that likes trip on the water, ac. cording to a French scientist wAo has studied it's behavior at sea. He is quite jolly when aboard ship, but all other animals violently resent such a voyage and vociferously give vent to their feelings until seasickness brings silence.
 The tiger suffers most of all. He whines pitifully. his eyes water con. tinually. and he rubs his stomach with his terrible paws. Horses are bad sailors and often die on sea voyage.
 Oxen are heroic in their attempts not to give way to seasickncss. Ele- plants do not like the sea. but they are amenable to medical treatment. A good remedy is buckefui of hot wa ter containing three and q half pints of whisky and seven ounces of Qui' nipe.-Fnr News.
