Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

January IL. 1882.-With the Criminal
Court so crowded that it required much
moral SuaSon on the part of the baillffs
to keep clear the space in front OF the
jury box. the closing arguments OF coun-
sci were begun today in the trial OF
Gitteau, the assassin of President Gar
field. AS soon as Judge Porter, who was
few minutes late IN arriving, came to
the bench, all of the members of the
court were present and the prisoner was
Immediately brought in.
Mr.. Davidge, of counsel for the Gov
eminent, spoke first. He said the only
possible plea in behalf of the prisoner
was on the ground of insanity which
could not, in his opinion, be proved.
I'm respect to his intelligence" con-
tinued Mr. Davidge. 'it cannot be doubt
ed that he is man of uncommon abil-
ity, nor can it be doubted that he has
nerve and resolution enough to execute
his conceptions. To sum up the man in
word, he has the daring eye of the
vulture combined with the heart of the
wolf"
Gitteau has requested the court to be
allowed to address the jury in his own
behalf and this will probably be granted.
He says his speech will fill several news
paper columns.
1T will be like an grafton of Cicero,
he said. ut is very important
document
This and the speeches of counsel on
both sides are expected to consume two
weeks or more. While it is not usual to
forecast the result of trial, especially
a murder trial, the conditions in this
case are so plain that it is generally
believed by lawyers about the court
room, as we'll as the public, that Gitteau
is certain to be convicted of killing the
President.
The trial began Monday, November
IA, and bids fair before it ends to last
beyond or near the middle of January.

QukIlP. Is JI1CIC
any place in this one-horse village
where you can pick up any excite
ment?"
The native pondered minute and
then, suppressing smile, answered,
why, yes. think so. Just walk two
blocks farther on until you come to a
basement. That's where most of
the town boys gather in the evening.
Just bust right in and tell 'em what
you think of this place. They'll show
you good time. I hope you enjoy
yourself"
Thanks, old top, I will" returned
the stranger, as he dashed on his way.
What happened to him before the eve
ming was over may be left to the mag
nation of the reader.

The guests were trying to disguise
the perfectly obvious fact that they
were bored. During most social func-
lions, unless the hostess is exceedingly
alert, there is bound to be a dead
spot" time when even small talk
ceases to interest.
Perhaps" said the hostess, "Mr.
Smith will sing for u.s."
In nearly every gathering will be
found a singer or one who can perform
on piano. Some of the guests stifled
a yawn and feebly applauded Mr.
Smith was a stranger, and it seemed
that he sang tenor or something The
modest young fellow said that he
would try If someone would play for
him. He had no music with him. and
he searched through the song sheets
on top of the instrument. He finally
drew forth piece by Percy Granger
and handed it to the volunteer pianist.

When Do You Spend Most?

OF course you know women who
| boast that no clothes are fine enough
| for them. and those same women may
be observed buying second best eggs
and butter for their families. Or they
may vaunt of the value of their jewels,
and then begrudge fair salary to a
cook or maid.
There Is a moral side to the spending
Of money, just as there Is moral side
to the earning of money. II you Will
recall when and where you spend most,
you will have a fair picture OF the
moral side of your own finances.
Nothing that money can buy is per-
manent. Clothes wear out, jewels may
be lost or stolen, houses deteriorate,
fine furnishings fade, in fact everything
Is subject to change and fortune.
On the other hand, good wholesome
food Is only seen once, 1t Is true. But
one need not ask which will produce a
healthier and happier family. good food
or luxuries of an ostentatious sort.
Money may bring happiness in other
ways. To spend money to make other
people happy is one way. Another way
is to spend money so that ones own
family may enjoy LIES pleasures and
comforts.
Generally, money is spent eithher to
satisfy real need or to produce show
of some sort.
Those who spend most on their needs
and least on show" enjoy to the full
est moneys benefits. There are some
items which do not fall exactly into
these classes: travel, art and other COL
lections jewels. luxuries of all kinds.
Travel may be needed diversion, or
an earned pleasure. Art may be ones
sole pleasure outside of ones routine

Everyday Psychology
BY DR.. JESSE W. sPROwLs.
Fire Psychology.

When the sirens sing and the fire
wagons rush through the streets, every
body takes notice. There is never
failing curiosity aroused by fires and
by the activity of the men and ma
chinery sent to extinguish them. No
one knows this better than f1remen. A
few have told me that If it were not for
the curiosity that Is aroused when they
are called to the hose and ladders, the
business of being fireman would be
too monotonous to follow.
Monotony and its relief occupy big
place in fire psychology. More for the
firer1en. OF course. But a fire helps
to relieve monotony for the public as
well. You always feel popped up
when the wagons go by. You have a
sense OF something else in the world
worth saving besides your own business,
day dreams and introspections.
But there are other factors in fire
psychology that are worthy of mention.
Every one likes to think that his bust
ness Is important. In all probability
vocational pride is more important to
the fireman than Is the monotony fac
tor. Who does not feel important when
large numbers of people are taking note
of the way he does his work? When a
persons work attracts attention, his
ego Is increased, his sense Of Importance
is magnified.
On the other hand, from the by
stander's point of view, fire psychology
is largely matter of attention and its
arousal. Fast-moving objects, loud
noises and the like attract attention
The whole outside world is momentarily
conferred on the here and now. None
but the hardest-boiled introverts can
resist the temptation to turn their at
tention to things that forcefully stimu-
late the eyes and ears. So curiosity
about fires is product of the psychol-
ogy Of attention-mostly that.

) Combinations of Figured Material
BY MARY MARSHALL.

1t is hard enough to spring a real
surprise-to think of anything in dress
that can possibly be considered a real
novelty. Sometimes it seems as II the
only way that a dreSsmaker could
achieve this desirable bit of novelty was
to launch something quite absurd, since
everything that isn't absurd has Obvi-
ouSly been thought of and tried before.
Perhaps the new combination Of
figures and plaids or of two sorts of
figured materials in the same costumes
Is just an absurdity. But the effect is
not really so preposterous as 1t might
seem, since the colors and shades used
in the two materials are the same.
Sometimes two distinct figures are
used in this way, but more often a
figure with plaid or check, or large
scroll figure with a dot, or a small figure
with stripe.
There are companion prints consist
ing OF chiffon and crepe printed in the
same color and design. These are less
striking. Then there are printed crepes
showing the same design and the same
colorS, only on one piece the dark color
is printed on the light and on the other
the light is printed on the dark. A
smart effect may be gained by COM
bining navy blue dotted with ecru
and an ecru ground dotted with navy
blue.
White has turned out to be more
in favor than most of us had expected
that is. pure white. The prediction was
often made that with sunburned skin
off-white shades would be preferred and
eggshell white and oyster white have
been seen great deal. But for the
smart evening ensemble pure white-in
satin, georgette, chiffon or tulle, worn
with the wrap of white MORE velvet or
ermine-has taken on place of real
importance both with older women and
with the younger ones.
This weeks circular for the home
dressmaker shows how to make the new
wool tuft trimming, which makes
most effective and inexpensive finish
for cuffs, collars and panels of the Win
ter coat or frock. If you would like a
copy, please send me your stamped. self
addressed envelope and will send it to

Egg Noodles.

Silt pint of flour into a mixing
bowl and make well in the middle
as you would if making soda biscuits.
Beat two eggs well and add to them
half teaspoonful of salt. Drop into
the well in the flour, and mix the flour
in until it is as stiff as you can mix it.
Flour the bread board and remove the
noodle dough to the board Roll into
a very thin sheet, adding -four as need
ed to prevent sticking. Allow to dry
for one hour, If possible If you have
not time for drying. they must be
Toured very thickly before rolling. Roll
the sheet into a cylinder and cut
across. To cook, drop into boiling meat
broth or chicken soup. They are de-
nciouS with stewed chicken and good
with any stewed fowl or meat. Boil
for three minutes after they begin to
boil. A good-sized dish Of noodles may
be made with one egg by adding to the
egg as much water as may be held
in one-half of the eggshell.

A rectangular table, with or without
drop leaves, may be placed at right
angles to wall and promote comfort
able use and provide excellent decora-
tive effect.
One of the good results of such posi-
tioning is that less wall space is taken
Up. This is of moment in small rooms
Another is that an irregular contour
is gained instead of the more usual and
less artistic straighter line resulting
from setting furniture against the wall.
Every homemaker has at one time or
another found it difficult to break up
such an even arrangement without en-
croaching on needed floor space. Here
is one solution.
If a room is longer than it is wide,
the length can be pleasingly interrupted
by a table set thus at right angles to a
long wall. It should never be so placed
against one of the short sides of the
room. In the first instance the results
are fine. but in the second they are
very poor, accenting the wrong lines OF
direction.
It is often possible to get good light
on a writing table or desk when it
stands at right angles to wall before
or near some window. Otherwise, the
light might come over the right
shoulder, which should always be
guarded against. 1t is easier on the
eyes to write with light coming from
the side than when one faces the light,

Nut size kindling charcoal

to broil steak.
If hooks to be used in the kitch-

enamel paint they will not rust.
When removing FASTING
threads do not pull a very long
basting. Cut it every few inches
to avoid pulling the material.
Be careful to keep fruit and
vegetables where they will not
freeze during the Winter weather.
A dry, cool corner in your cellar

Dried fruits, soaked over night,

as would result if the table were placed
against the wall under the window.
A drop-leaf table at right angles tc
wall is easily opened to its full size
whereas, when placed with its length to
the wall, it has to be moved when both
leaves are opened out. II the table
must serve for combination living
room and dining table, as so often is
the case in apartments, the ease with
which the table can be enlarged is one
to be considered.
Apart from the various decorative
aspects that may be pleasingly stressed
as indicated, the right-angle positioning
of table promotes a cozy scheme. A
person sitting at the table does not
have her back to the room. She is more
en- rapport with others. If, instead OF
writing, she is playing solitaire, this
coziness is delightful
To read seated at table with a book
opened on it, where the light is good
is a favorite pastime of many book
lovers. One does not seem so un-
sociable when the side, and not the
back, is toward others in the room
The monotony of facing a blank wall
is relieved when writing, studying or
reading at a table placed as described
1t will be seen that decoration and COM
fort are both conserved when a table
is positioned at right angles to a wall
in room where such scheme can be
carried out well.
