Quite a pleasant surprise was in
store for number OF young people
on Saturday afternoon when Miss
Myrtle Frame invited them to Il
FOrty-Two Party and at the concu.
sion of the games announced her
engagement to Mr., John Freeman
None of the guests suspected the
nature of the party and were not
even enlightened when they saw
score cards of hearts on the tables
on which the count of the games
We're kept.
The tally cards were cup;d5 and
hearts, which might have been sus-
picious were not Cupid such a
friend of youth and such a favorite
at parties.
After a few games, Mrs. Arthu.
Kyle sang 20 Flower of All the
World"
The persistent applause secured
for encore "A Lovely Garden"
Refreshments were then passed
and the guests curiosity thoroughly
aroused by the hearts on each plate.
Across each heart was a black cat
md the words, The cats out of the
bag A close investigation of the
heart disclosed leaf of white paper
on which was written:
On Thursday evening, June the
first,
The bands of singleness we'll
burst"
Myrtle Frame.
John Freeman.
AS soon as the verse was read
Miss Natalie Williams began to play
Mendellshon' Wedding March and
Miss Frame and Mr. Freeman came
in amid the clapping of the guests,
who were eager to offer congratula-
tions and find out all about it,"
Miss Marguerite Noble gave o
very happy toast to the groom, and
Mr.. Freeman gave a clever response.

WORKERS IN LOWER BRANCH Of
CONGRESS: RECIPROCITY IN SENATE

Washington, April 30-Three weeks
of the extraordinary session having
passed into history with a record
Of rapid fire legislation by the house,
the senate is finally organized, but
in no haste to consider that part of
the democratic program already dis
posed of by the lower branch.
Canadian reciprocity is the only
matter now being considered by the
senate and that probably will not
come before it for several weeks.
The finance committee, to which ii
was referred, will grant hearings
on the bill. How long committee
deliberation will continue is prob
lematical but the prospect is for
a lengthy discussion.
Chairman Penrose of the commit
tee is in favor of the bill, but the
majority is opposed to it. The pre-
vailing opinion is it will be report
ed without recommendation. The
committee will meet tomorrow or
Tuesday
Senator Stone OF Missouri will ad
dress the senate tomorrow on the
bill and endeavor to explain some
of the Misrepresentation that have
been made regarding the proposed
agreement After this speech there
will be nothing before the senate
and adjournment until Thursday is
probable. with adjournment until
Monday to follow
Reciprocity in Senate.
There is no prospect of the
ate considering the house bills pro-
viding for popular election of sena-
tor, publicity of campaign contri-
buttons or reapportionment until the
reciprocity issue has been decided.
in the house the democrats are
keeping up the rapid legislative pace
and most of the coming week will
be devoted to the farmers free list
bill Chairman Underwood demon
strated his desire to hasten action
and also to give al members a
chance TO be heard by insisting up
on II o'clock as the hour to con-
vene instead of noon.
1t is probable that debate will
close Thursday or Friday. That 1t
will pass there is no doubt. the
democratic support being almost sol
id, reinforced by the votes OF a few
republicans.
Many members are smiling at the
forgetfulness of Representative Dal-
zell Of Pennsylvania, who on Satur-
day attempted to block the effort
of the democratic leaders TO take a
recess until Monday to dodge the
committee discharge calendar. Mr..
Dalzell, who headed the rules COM
mittee of the last congress, had
forgotten that the democratic house
had changed the rule relative TO
motions to discharge committees

continues to champion women's wear
ing apparel. In answer to a biting
criticism on their dress from fell
low writer, he says:
Does woman betray "A lack of
sense in her habiliments? She does
not. As a matter of fact, barring
her hat and possibly her clumsy
skirt, woman is much more comfort
ably and sensibly dressed than man.
Men will not permit women to wear
trousers That is not a theory, but
an absolute condition. But, aside
from this prescription, womans gar
menture is to be praised for its ar
tistic lines and the comfort it al
fords its wearer Have you not oc-
casionally strayed into a street car,
on a hot day, Pitchfork, and noted
the women clothed cheerfully in
delicate fabrics, with short sleeves
and waists cut away at the neck?

An outcome of the recent Woman's
Jubilee for foreign missions is the
formation in about fifty cities of
Women's Social Unions, similar in
name but not in work to the Mems
Social Unions found in many cities.
These new unions are federatiOns
of women's missionary organizations,
all bodies, in particular cities. The
plan had its beginning in Spring
field, H., some years ago, and is
now applied to the task OF perpetu-
ating the late campaign. The new
unions undertake no financial pro
iects beyond their own expenses,
but aim to assist incomes of eX-
listing societies, especially foreign
ones. In some cities they have charge
of missionary conventions of women,
similar to those jus. held in such
large numbers
The general campaign, holding its
closing convention in New York,
has now 100000 of the $l,OO0OOO

STOCKS ARE INACTIVE
After Brief Advance at The Open

With Little Trading.

New York, Aug, 31-Following a
sharp rise at the opening of the
market and subsequent recession
stocks moved in narrow range to-
day. Trading was aimless and trad
ers Indifferent. Business fell to the
smallest proportions for several
days.
Demand for stocks seemed to
arise from the short interest and
buying from that side of the market
was largely responsible for the
opening advance in which number
of important issues gained from |

Pressure was again directed
against Lehigh Valley and at one
time the sticks fell points, Later
in the day Amalgamated Copper was
attacked, relaxing nearly points.

An offer was made of 3.l0 for the
stock ex-subsidiary but traders re-
fused to deal in the issue on those
terms.
Various plans were an foot today
to prevent violent fluctuations in

close of the day it was uncertain
what course would be taken.

FISH FOR IRON THROUGH ICE
How the SWedes Get Orc From the
Bottom Of Some Of Their
Lakes.

The bottoms OF many Swedish lakes
are covered to thickness OF six or
eight inches with fragments of iron
ore OF the size of peas. This Lake ore
consists chiefly OF ochre, or hydrated
oxide OF iron, mixed with silicate and
phosphate OF iron, clay, sand and other
Impurities, and yields pig iron OF very
good quality.
The ore is obtained by very print
tive methods. In winter hole is cut
in the ice, a scraper attached on q
long pole is inserted and all Of the
ore within reach Is collected into q
heap beneath the hole. Some OF the
mud which has been scraped together
with the ore Is removed by stirring
the mass with poles. and the ore is
then scraped into bags which have
been sunk and is hauled up.
In summer this curious mining oper-
alton is conducted in a similar man
ner from RATS anchored In the lake.
Two miners can bring up about four
tons of ore In a day Steam dredges

"All that?" inquired the toothless

poe's Conundrum.

Edgar A. Poe. great as was his gen
ius, had but little humor. He had.
however, hard, intellectual wit which
scintillated In the most unexpected
ways. He was accustomed to de-
nounce punning as the most banal and
foolish OF all kinds Of pleasantly. and
satirized on every occasion the pow
erty OF faculty which INDUCED Itself
in this kind of pseudo-cleverness.
On one occasion brilliant company
in which he was present, knowing bis
foible, was teasing Poe with a pro-
fusion OF conundrums, and challenging
him to make one. The poet grimaced,
and instantly shot forth this:
why Is Aesop's fable OF the fox
that lost his tail disproved by seol-
ogy?' a,.l.
Every one was nonplused. and Poe
had to give the answer:
Because no animal remains have
ever been found in trap."-Youth's

after Christianity was introduced into

the dead IN unhallowed ground on the
land where they died, and that stake
was get up over the grave. When
the priest afterward came says the
sage, the stake was pulled up and
holy water was poured into the hole,

Nothing Is certain concerning rad

otherwise is bluffing, but 1t seems like
~ that those leaders In the dress
making world who have most to do
with launching new modes will make
desperate effort to effect very con
siderable changes this fall
The prosperity OF the trade demands
it, II has been possible for several
seasons past for woman to wear an
old frock without appearing actually
out of the fashion, and that is thing
painful to manufacturers, merchants
and dressmakers Something really
must be done to relegate all last win
ter's frocks to outer darkness, and
the only effective way Of accomplish
ing this is TO bring about decided
change In the silhouette. Mere change
of detail will not be enough.
But this change Of silhouette can.
not be brought about too abruptly.
The women who wear the clothes do
have something to say about them.
and the women have chung rather
tenaciously to the straight, narrow
silhouette, with It's scant skirt and
simple bodice and close clipped
shoulders and high waist line.
To win them from their allegiance
will be a work OF diplomacy and the
designers have been experimenting
gently for some months past. Here
and there one has seen a skirt with a
tlifle more amplitude than the major
lily, a noticeably smart frock with
natural waist line defined, Flounces
and plaitings have crept into use
though so fiat and limp are they thai
they do not seem aggressive.
