tation of his relativ. Ransdell, called at the office of the organ and demanded that the quotation be not published. It was a long time before the proprietor of the organ would release this rare opportunity to stick a knife into Mr. Ketcham and leave it there. The proprietor of the orKan asserted his independence and reasserted his purpose to destroy Ketcham, but the end of it all was the withholding of the objectionable, dangerous and offensive paragraphs. This decision was reached only after the "slick six" had threatened to withdraw their support from the organ's particular candidate for county treasurer. This candidate was William) II. Schmllt, an antl-IIarrison man. whose chief competitor was Ithody Shiel, a Harrison man. It was one of the queer things of politics. thi.- confusion of Interests, shewing unreliability in all thing3 where p. personal revenge and purposes controlled. Schmidt was nominated and it is understood that there will be a division of appointments under him with the owner -t the party organ. When it came to giving up this possible patronage or the revenge it was desired to Inflict on Ketcham the owner of the party organ held to the possible patronage and put-aside h3" revenge until a convenient reason. The organ, though, is not supporting Keteh'.tr. Its agreement is to keep quiet and it dire not break that agreement lest it should fall in the hands of a murdering mob of Incensed republicans. The Argument. As !t was through the Influence of the "Slick Six" that the organ's assault on Ketcham was prevented, so through the influence of the "Slick Six" will the patronage to th2 organ from the county treasurer's office in the event of Mr. Schmidt's election be preserved. "If the republican's elect their ticket." siid on? of the party in the lir?t ward the other night, "ni one can expect any position preferment about the curt house except on order of the 'Slick Six.' " The auditor's office will b taken car? of by Ko?s Hawkins and the treasurer"! office by Harry New. ThLs is in keeping with t- program of the Harrison mfn, who wdl see that no political ew.ud is given unle-s for past, present and future loyalty tJ the ex-president. The pun'JS" h to Intrench the Harrison crowd in th? Marion county court hiuse. which will become a base for future operation. through th? most notorious ring of disreputable politicians that has ever disgracI Indiana politics. They will work for th? restoration f Hirri.-on and th? restoration of Harrison will be to give ü!l the offices agiin to the men who have be?n out of ydace only since t'ae b?ginnintf of Mr. Cleveland's administration. The Harrison crowd cares nothing f r the other fellows except to get their votes and influence to help them into ofTicial position. When Jthsy have done that thy can step aside and look on at i division of offices among men whose fortunes have been mide by the repub- ' l--in party, who If they will tike nothing themselves will see to it that the places 1j not p.t beyond their control. The future of one's reward for services will depnd up-n the grac he can find with th? "Slick Six." Republican success means that and nothing more.

THE tIFE OF AN ACROBAT. William Hanlon Talks of Ills Experiences. William Hanlon. one of the Han'.on brothers, whose "Superba"' attracted such large crowds this season at English's, and whose stage spectacles and pantomimes have had such a phenomenal career, is an entertaining talker when he can b? induced to tell of his thrilling career. He hi? now abandoned entirely all acrobatic feats anl is giving his entire attention to the management of "Superba." After traveling in a'.l countries of the wrrM the Ilanbns! came to the United States in 1SS1 an l have beert here since. Mr. Hanlon was a.ki I when here as to the life of an acrobat and if the years of ha.r.1 training from childhood were ompensateil: by the returns. He replied: "It is a question, and a great question wh.-tlur the success that might lie gained by a profession-it acrobat is worth the years of constant: training, the hardships and the terrible dingers of following flica a vocation. I woul 1 not advise a young man to uniertake to become a professional acrobat for those reasons. I remember I go my first fall at Malta through the carelessness of a Mr. I-ees, to whom I had been apprenticed. The drop was only about twenty fett, but I lost my senses th moment I began to fall. In subsequent falls I was conscious until the thul' came, and in my first great fall, strange as it may seem, I had time during the drop of thirty-five feet to think of all the terrible accidents I had ever seen in my life and of many other things as well. This lasti happened in Manchester. England, anl the. result was a badly broken arm, which the English doctor failed to properly mend. I was laid up for a year, during which time we crossed the Atlantic, and Dr. James K. Wood, a then famous New York surgeon, fixed me up in good shape, a Job which caused a. jjreat deal of talk at the time amon the medical profession throughout this and the o'.d country. "I had another terrible fall in Havana. Cuba. In Rio de Janeiro. Brazil, I got nnother bad tumble; in fact all of my brothers as weil as myself had at least twenty bad falls during our acrobatic carter, but the worst happened to poor Thomas. It was at Pike's opera house. Cincinnati. In all our career we had never used nets, as they. do now days, and yiu can easily imagine what a tumW? to a hard .taso llMr meant to any tf u. In making the flying leap fr m one trapeze to another Thomas lost his hold and fell Into the footlipnts, bounding from there into the orchestra, and smashing the bass violin. His head Struck two gas jets, breaking t.Vm off. and it was a long time before he seemed on the mad to recovery. "Sirange enough, just one year from that time we were again playing in Cincinnati and one night Thomas was missing. He was found a few days after wandering in a demented condition in HarrL-burc. Ia.. and diel there. It was afterward found that a fragment of the skull, whicn was fractured by the fall, had penetrated the brain. "Still, there are bright sid. to the life t th pr fessional acrobat. If he is superior in his lino his triumphs are absolute and pleasing. Ho isi received well wherever he gos. and he is given opportunities to see things that many wealthy people are even unabH to observe, as was the ens? with us. We saw and met many members of royalty, including Eugenie, npres.1 of the French; the duchess of Theba of Spain, the duke and duchess of Elba, and the queen of Spain, but of all the. royal pp".e we met th? rajih. of Jiur.lnan was the most maKnificent. His throne, which I was allowed tu see als.), "Wis thfj costiihst on, earth. It was wide enough for two very' larer? men to sil on and built of s tld gold. T'n seat -was upholstered in th? finest down and satin, and the arms terminated in two knobs, each half the siz. of a min's head, thickly incrustI with rubies as targe as a pigeon'. egg. and other rare j.-wels. A silken canopy was surmounted by a dove, which wa ablaze with first-water diamnds of great siz. This throne was. worth a king's ransom, but everything in the rajah's court wa on a similar scale of magnificence. The Hrahmin priests had a remarkable Influence over the prince, an! were constantly concocting plans to rob him andi enrich themselves. One was to Induce him to build a golden cor. life size, hollowed so that h could ,et inside, and once or twice a year fast f ir twenty-four hours. At the prlnce'8 dath the goldeh cow was to become the jroperty of the priests. The prince died. All such sights and experiences go to make up the enviable side of a professional acrobat's life, but the other side leaves ine the only survivor of a once large and happy family." A Trie Wonmn. "And what kind of a chin has she?" ehe asked, as he paused In the middAe of an attempt at description of her features. "A movable one," she said, after a moment's sober thought. And then he heaved a dep and pensive sigh. Somerville Journal. ........

Mrs. .William Astor's collection of rings Is the most famous of any in this country. She has several rings once the property of the Empress Eugenie. One is the noted "Napoleon ring," which represents a lily in diamonds, with a drop of dew upon the petals. The dewdrops are pearls and the petals are. diamonds. Mrs. Astor also owns a ring made of turquoise, fashioned into forgetmenots. Another is a snake ring, which was purchased in Egypt. It is made of fine gold wire, which scintillates and moves as if alive. Each scale of the snake's back 13 a tiny wire on which is a ruby, an emerald and an amethyst. The effect is marvelous. Mrs. Burke-Roche is fond of rlng3 and seldom wears 1-ss than four or rive a pinky ring on her right hand, set with a catseye, besides the wedding ring and a circlet of pearls with the narrow gold guard. There is a pinky ring on the left hand anil two on the third finger, one with small diamonds, the others set with a sapphire. Mrs. Paran Stevens decks her hands brilliantly upon festive occasions. More often she wears only her wedding ring, a narrow band of the old-fashioned type and rather worn from long wearing. She possesses a ring which once belonged to the Turkish empire, which is certainly wonderful. There is an intricate band woven of line silver. At the setting is a lizard made of diamonds. In the tail is a spring, and when it is touched the mouth of th? lizard opens to divulge the Interior of the throat, which is made of rubies and diamonds. Mrs. Madge Kendal has among her collection a "glmmal ring" Riven to her by a member of the royal family. It parts into three hoops. The tooth edge of the central hoop forms an ornamental center to the ring, with two hearts in the middle. A hand Is a ranged in such a way that, when the hoops are closed, the fingers of th hand clasp tightly over the two hearts. liarbaria little ornaments are thumb rings, but they are worn, however. Mrs.' Elia Wheeler Wilcox has one which Is costly and always in its place on the thumb of her right hand. The actor Pixey wore one for a long time. A member of Sorosis has also taken to the thumb ring;. Mrs. Leland Stanford has a collection of sixty rings, with every kind and description of precious stone represented. She wears only her wedding ring, however. The others, all strung on a black ribbon, are put away with the rest of her jewels in a safe deposit vault. Mrs. Clendenin. nee Gabriel! Gree'.ey. has no fondness for jewels. She never wears any of any description whatever beyond her wedding and1 engagement rings, th" latter being a diamond gypsy ring. Mrs. Richard T. Lonnshery has some beautiful rings and usually wears several. Among the number the particularly noticeable) one is a seal ring with h r itinls cut in Turkish characters. St. Louis Republic. The American llenuty. The most artless of these types of young Kirls. and. to my mind, the most touching, for reasons which I shall name, is "the beauty," says M. Ruirget in the Uoston Herald In writing about American girls. There are two or three of them for every town, and th- ir royalty is so well established that you receive notes couched in the follnving terms: "Come to tea tomorrow after tomorrow to meet Ml X.. the Itichtnimd beauty." I have taken Richmond at random. You can in its place put Savannah. Caarles'.m, Albany, Providence. I'uff.ibi any city of the nonh or fsouth which may suit you. "The beauty." to merit her title, must b beautifijl indeed, of that dazzling beauty which, in a ball, at a dinner, at the theater, extinguishes that of all the other women. She must be tall and very well built, so that the line of her face and figure shall be favorable to those reproductions of which the newspapers and :heir readers are so fond. She must know hw to dress wi:h that gorgeousness which is here inseparable from elegance. Once she is known, it is for her, who is often not more than twenty years old, the entrance into a kind of official, almost civic, exisence. Her name prints itself naturally in the columns of the papers consecrated to "social gossip," so of:en have the printers composed it. She forms part of the groat dinners and the great balls, like the roses at a dollar apiece, and the dry champagne. The tjwn is not enough for her, o-. rather, she does not fulfill her missioa if she does not go to represent that town at Xew York, at Washington, at Newport. In all the hirse shows, at all the regattas, at all the races where American society defiles as on a stage. She is. in fact, an actress of the world, and in that line she is a champion as well as a mas. er (f billiards or of chess let us be nnre noble like a pugilist, like Jim Corbet:, th ' Californian. In order that her success be complete it is necessary for her to compete abnad, to hold in Paris, L ndon, in Rome, her first place in the salons. Her Story In IJke n Romance. That first college woman that we hear the alumni speak of s) much was Miss Marv W. Mitchell of Dover, .Me., ?ays President Cheney of Bites college. Her story is -like a rommce. Young, ambitious and strong, she came to Lewiston to work in the factory, and before h?r father knew it had "paid the mortgage on the farm," which he had struggled to do for years. Then she came to wo-k in my family and expressed the desire to go t col'.eg?. She was a good scholar and quickly fitted for college, and in 1M15 had applied for admission. We admitted her, and it was a nine days' wonder for the newspapers. And why not? Was she not the first woman ever admitted to a Xew England college? In reoogn It ion of the money given in college by the state the governor appoints ten scholarships, and as Mis Mitchell was the first woman to apply in a college for admission I requested the trovermr to give her a scholarship. When I went to her with it, a great parchment, with the state seal, etc., she looked it oer and said: "Oh. give it to the brethren! I can look out for myself," and she paid her tuition. When commencement day came in 1SG3 and she went on the plutform to receive her diploma, she was greeted with the most hearty and enthusiastic applause. I 'believe she afterward taught in Vassar college and opened a private school in Boston. Then sh married and is now settled in Laconla. X. H., a good wife and mother, owning the proud distinction of being the first -wife in the world with a New England college education. Lame I'nrnltnre. When a piece of furniture Is very bally defaced and dented, it should by intrusted to some good repairer, wh may sometimes find it necessary to scrape off the old finish entirely in order to make a satisfactory piece of work. When tha wood is slightly dented, one may sometime overcome the trcuLIe by steaming the iddentation with a hot Iron ami a wet cloth, afterward making a small pad of mjslin and rubbing over the surface some thin Fhellac, Just adding a touch of oil to make the work easier.

professionals rely on. As a rule, they use no, other. The woodwork should be first careruny wiped off with a dry soft cloth an J the dust thoroughly removed from corners and carvings. The best article to accomplish this is a large paintbrush, usually called a painter's duster. The oil may then be applied with a sma'.br brush, wiping off with a soft cloth and rubbing thoroughly dry. It will be found that dents and scratches lose their1 prominence "under thla treatment. Should this method be pursued regularly there will be no difficulty experienced in having furniture retain a fresh appearance. EffecHve IlreanlnK. A clever woman, according to an authority on dress, can wear two apparently unlike and unconnected garments and make the world think they have been intended for each other from time immemorial. In illustration of her meaning -madame pointed to a skirt and waist which were lying ready to be sent home. "They do not seem parts of the same gown. Is it not so?" said she. And the listeners heartily agreed that they did not. The skirt was of tobacco-brown crepon, flaring to an unusual degree, even in this period of hues. The waist was of blue silk, entirely covered with black accordion plaited chiffon. There was no trace of brown crepon about that bodice and no suggestion 0f blue silk about the skirt. A If BROWJj The waist bad a high collar and cuffs of polii braid. Jut ni:ul.imc assured her hearers that when the pirticu'.ar woman who was to wear tho.? garments donned them they would seem more harmonious ' than the blue serge bodice and th blue serge skirt, which were cut from the same piece of poods. "And so it will be," continued madame. "when she wears the bodice witli her black silk skirt or her brown crepon skirt with the green velvet bodice. It all depends on the woman." The- problem of dressing effectively is here made easy for the woman who is sure to possess that particular form of cleverness admired by madame. St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Dieting for Children. It Is as cruel a thing to compel a child always to clear his plate as it is at other times to refuse him more when he wants it. If you think the child is simply greedy, give hint dry bread, but give him something. Cm tho other hand, how often a child, sickening- in some fever, has, by refusing food even when sorely pressed, taught the mother wisdom. Again, children often have a hured of certain articles of food. Fat. underdone meat, eggs, pork, liver and other things are often hated by children, but a certain amount of fat and butter U desirable. In such cases it Is unwise to press th"tn beyond a certain point. Fool eat?n with aversion or under threats is pretty siriv to disagree. Children should n L le allowed to go too long -with. ait food, especially in the middle of the day. If they cannot come heme to dinner, make sure taey have a good, substantial lunch and see that it Ls eaten, and that money th.it may be given to get it i-i n ;t spnt in nth.-r ways. Another mistaken id.-a is that sugar is had f.r children. It is. on the contrary, one of the. mast nourishing articles of riet, ar.J taken pure with food is quite wholesome.

"Skip the dining room," Mme. Nellie Melba said one day, speaking about flesh, "and you can weigh what you like. Eating Is a fascinating vice.

A fire is never made in her apartment; She dislikes society affairs because of the bad atmosphere that prevails.

WalktnR Into n Complexion. Mrs. Langtry always asserted and stoutly maintained that she -owed the firmness of her skin and tbe brilliancy of her complexion to the fast 'walk w hich she took daily. When she was at Long Itranchone summer, she walked along the coast drive half way to Asbury Park and back nearly every day. while her companions drove edowly along in their pöny carriages. Many American women walk, but they are slow walkers: And the complexion specialists say that a slow walk is no better than none at all, exc. pt that it obliges the walker to . breathe f-esh, cpen a r. which is always good. To get the full beneficial effects 'of a walk for the complexion there must be rapid movement for the blood, quick breathing for the color in the cheeks, muscular exertion for the development of the whole body, including the chest and chin and' neck, and finally the general exercise for calling to life the I sluggish organs of the body. That is the general explanation. Practiced, it works wonders. To walk a prea' deal an I rapidly Is one of the thincs now tauyht a debutante. It is arKU.il that if she learns this art early In life and many women never learn it at all she will be-likely to continue her daily exercise in walking always. , and so will keep herself In blooming health and at the same time check herself from growing stout. X. Y. Herald. The Inruly Placket. The trouble is that one needs either .a constant pier glass or a double mirror to see the (back "of one's gown, and that is the reason we go about the street making spectacles of ourselves, with untidy, gaping plackets. We mean to do right, and we trust t" pins and to faithless hooks, and then we gj wrong all unknowingly and present as varied an aspect as the god of war, since ,we are visions of loveliness when we approach a friend and figures" of fun when we are going from her. . . Truth to tell, the unruly placket needs a drastic remedy. Pins won't do, not even safety pins ami hooks give way, and metal eyes drop off in times of need. Ruttons might solve the difficulty, but they would be clumsy. The best thing s far seen is an arrangement of two pieces of whalebone or steel Joined together at one end. When open it is an article dn the shape of a V; when closed the two pieces of steel or bone are close together and fast closed. This little invention is sewed neatly into the placket place and Mpcns and closes In tbe quickest possible way. The beauty of it is its reliab.lky. When it is once shut it remains shut until pressed open. It never flies vide apart of itself. Chicago Post. The (ilrl of Arcadia.

John Terry, who is with the Rarnev Ferguson company, is a young man who ha 3 had a varied experience. A native of Wa!e- he was for four years a seaman In the Rritlsh navy, and served two years on the same shin with Prince George, son of the prince of Wales, with whom he messed for one year. He tells some amusing stories of the scion of English royalty with whom he was necessarily thrown into intimate terms. When Trlnce George entered the navy he was compelled to com in as an ordinary seaman, and not only share their rooms and mels. but perform the same menial labors, such as serubbing the deck, standing watch, and all other hardships. Every morning the roal youngster would take his tin bucket and a cake of coap, set it on the mess room stool, and scrub his royal face t'nd neck. In fact, he would scrub his royal countenance as many as ten time a day and always had to use the rule accommodations afiorded by a man-of-war. Liquor was not allowed an board, which fact was a great privation to his royal highness, who was very fond of srome mild stimulant. During one cruise from Alaska, dowa the Pacific coast to Patagonia the ship touched for the day's outing of the sailors and among those who went ashore were Prince Georgi and Terry. The liquor used there is a distilled" weed which is called "anniscttai." His highness and Terry stole ofli through the brush to a village of huts back in the foot hüls and bis royalty at once entered Into negotiations for some "booz?." The only way to carry it back was in a Sheep bladder, and a mutton wad Killed to outa.n I the long bladler. This was filled wltn the liquor and the pnnce sirapoeu u aiouuu his waist and smuggled it on boari. Ii so hippem-d that as the two were ascending the side of the ship signs of an approaching typhoon were noticed and the sharp order came for all ta go aloft and make fast. The prince, burdened with the load of liquor, had to Jump as nimbly as the rest, and up the ropes he darted with the rest while the stern and dignified officers were pacing the snowwhite deck bel)w. In reaching for a rope the prince's fastenings gave way and down to the deck below dropped the bladder full cf liquor, which broke and spilled' a portion of the contents on the deck. The oath of the officer was heard and the prince turned white. "Terrv," sid he, "here's h 1 tapay. You take the blame for this and I'll square it." Terrv agreed, and when the officer asked in a tone of thunder who commlt-

ted the offense he touched his cap and acknowledged that he wa3 the culprit. He was at once court-martialed while the prince called, the captain to one side and whispered in his ear. The lieutenant was In command of the deck and was a stern disciplinarian. It looked blue. At the critical moment, however, the captain came forward and said: "Lieutenant, I am informed that Master George (.which was the term used in peaking of or addressing the duke of York) asked Terry to bring this aboard. It is a cologne used by the natives which 'he purchased for his own use." "The lie," says Terry, "was pretended by the lieutenant to be swallowed, and when we went to the mess room I had the, pleasure of taking a drink with the duke from the bladder which we found on the bunk of the prince." "Excuse me, madam, but you dropped your glove," exclaimed a well-dressed young man at the corner of Pennsylvania and Washlngton-sts. yesterday afternoon. The young man was red-faced and excited from the effects of a run he had Just made to overtake the lady. It was at a time when the streets were crowded, and the sight of the young man running at a breakneck speed after a lady and stopping her so abruptly as he did had attracted the attention of a number of people,- and when the young man made the above remark it was heard not only by the lady, tout by a dozen or more persons who formed a circle about the two and overheard the conversation. "Oh! thank you," replied- tbe lady sweetly. So kind of you to bring it to me." and she extended a dainty hand to receive the glove. "Oh. I didn't pick it up." and the young man looked foolish, while the crowd smiled. At this point a boofblack ran up with the glove, which he handed the lady without a word. He had picked it up in the postoffice a block away. The lady accepted it graciously, handed him a dime, and. with one of her sweetest smiles, said, addressing the young' man: "You might have earned that yourself if you had sense enough to have picked up the glove." She turned and walked into a drug store, while the young man sneaked away down the street. A rabbit's foot hanging to the clock in Mayor Denny's office has excited no little comment. It was sent to Mr. Denny by an old colored man when the municipal campaign was at its night. The mayor was enjoined by the donor to keep in ever about his person and he would surely be elected. He was further let into the secret that the foot was from the right hind leg of a rabbit killed at midnight, on a moonlight night, in a graveyard (cemetery would not do). The fact that the mayor was carrying the mascot was not known until after his election and installation In to the office. One day he was asked by a newspaper man to what he had attributed his wonderful success in the campaign. 'He made no reply until he had fished the rabbit's foot from his pocket. Then he told the story. After it became known that the mayor had carried a rabbit's foot, several persons attempted to steal it from where he kept it hanging to the clock and one was finally successful. Its place was vacant but a few days, however, for after a while another was received from tho old negro with a note inclosed stating that he had been waiting "for the mo?n to git right."

I'm in an awful hurry." The breakfast was eaten in short order, really bolted down. The man Jumped up, hurried to the counter and paid the bill. As he did so he looked up at the clock und then pulle-.l out his watch. CJoo.l heavens," he said, "is that clock rlpht?" He was informed that it was and looked Sheepish.
