He was probably driven to desperation by the low prices in his line of business. Three people were asphyxiated by natural gas in Lifaye.te last night. Such a tting could hardly have oc curred in this city the last few days. The annual exports of the Philip pine Wands, even under the wrt tched rule of Spain, exceeded by $175,000 the sum of $20,000,000 which we are to pay for them. rttntr never been a time in .the history of Richmond when as much could be accomplished as now by a business men's organization such as our commercial eluB was. The eigns are now more hopeful than they have been in many years for expansion of our business interests. The commercial club should be revived and reorganized. It is badly needed right now. In the legislature yesterday the senate bill was passed by the house to amend the act to provide for free licenses to ex-Union soldiers and sailors. The bill authorizes the auditor to issue licenses upon presentation of papers of discharge. Soldiers in the Spanish American war are also included. The house also passed the senate bill making the life of the appellate court six years from March, 1S07. A careful estimate of the vote in the senate on the peace treaty, gives 61 votes in favor and 29 against ratification. It is believed that the Sullivan resolution, which practically means nothing, will be passed before the vote on the treaty is taken, as sop to the wavering senators. The following is the text of the Sullivan resolution: "Resolved. That the ratification of the pending treaty of peace with Spain shall in co wise determine the policy to be pursued by the United States in regard to the Philippines, ncr shall it commit this government to a colonial policy; nor is it intended to embarrass the establishment of a stable independent government by the people of those islands whenever conditions make such a proceeding hopeful of successful and desirable results." We have received a copy of the Remonstrance, a paper published in Boston by the "Massachusetts Association opposed to the further extension of suffrage to women." This organization is entirely composed of women. The following is a sample cf the Remonstrance's arguments against woman suffrage: Utah has signalized hur advent to the Union under woman s nil rage by electing a polygamic to conpiess. It is to be hoped that woman suffrage is not immediately resporsible for this, but one cannot help recalling the remark made by Mrs. Cannon, the only woman chosen for a state senator. When running in the Presidential campaign on the free silver ticket against hr husband, she said: "I believe in polygamy. I think the women of Utah think with me, that we were better off in polygamy. Sixty per cent, of the voters of this state are women. We control the state." To Curs a Cold In Ons Day TakeL&xative Bromo Quinine tablets. All druggists refund the money if it fails to cere. 25c.

LETTER BY GEORGE FOX.
Editor f the Palladium: I have been much- interested in the articles on township reform which have appeared in your paper written by the trustees of different towr ships. I can sympathize with them in their earned efforts to please the taxpayers and yet do i bur duty in assisting tb.9 poor. I ktovr that oar trustee is a man of large sympathy, who ha Lever forgotten the interest of the tai payer while he has been very careful to re member mercy in helping the needy I have recently come in possession of an eld letter of George Fox written to early Friend, when, as he puts it. they were walking in the life and power." 1 am certain if taxpayers and poor people wonld look mora afttr the rules laid down by tut there wonld be a better state of affairs. The trustees would not have to complain of being ground down, the poor wonld not suffer, and the taxpayers would Ls bleat. THE LETTER. 1GC8. lo Faithful Friends, concerning the first spreading of the truth. When I came to O. Roberts 'hoose, about eiu'ht in the morning, there camel in Sarah Blackberry to romplainto mel of the poor, and how many poor; Friends were in want; and the Loid showed me what I should do in L s eternal power and wibdom.

And they lid o accordingly, tnch as were sensi-i' ki e a. i At lug U d. An-1 whet the loid bid opened unto me I declaied to them, concerning inur naviog a meetisg once a week, every second day, that tbey might see and enquire into the' necessity of all pcor Friends, who were sick and weak, and in want, or hiows and fatherless in the city and eubmbs.

Gkorue Fox, What do You Believe the Greatest Blessing. Undoubtedly the greatest blessing to mankind is good health, and whatever will produce health must be considered as no less a blessing- The greatest blessing in the shape of a medicine is certa n'y Dr. Greene's Narvura blood

Mrs. Cruger picked up the cradls in Paris at an auc tion. It is of dark wood and without any particular ornamentation. - America possesses another relic of Napoleon Bonaparte the sleigh in which he escaped from Russia In 1812. It belongs to a Chicago wofian, and has been in her husband's family for fifty years or more. A parchment certificate, dated April 7. 1?16, and signed by a Bonaparte of Silesia testi lies that this is the sleigh in which the Emperor of the French made his es cape from Russia. The harness is wonderful piece of workmanship. Queen Victoria treasures among her relics Prince Charlie's walking stick the one which waa mislaid by him on the morning of Qulloden and afterward found in his bedroom. The handle of the stick has carved upon it two heads, one representing Wisdom, the other Folly. The Queen got it at auction for 160. The Empress Josephine's piano is in a London showroom. It was made in 1808 by order of Napoleon and presented to the Empress. It was stolen during the sacking of the Tuilerias and afterwards sold at public auction. The case is of the finest rosewood, orna mented with ormolin, while the keys are made of mother-of-pearl and tor toise shell. Napoleon's taste is shown by the fact that one of the five pedals works a drum and triangle attach ment. The wedding dress of the unfortunate Queen Marie Antoinette has been discovered in the ancient church of Kenuweg, near Vienna. It has for many generations been the custom for Austrian brides to present their wed ding dresses to a church for the adorn ment of an image of the Holy Virgin. or to be made into vestments. The mirror before which Gen. Wash ington made his daily toilet has for the last thirty-five years been hanging in a house in Warrenton, Va, It was pur chased at the sale of the personal effects of Lawrence Washington, a greatnephew of the first President. The glass Is framed in gilt, and at the top, in a background of white and black enamel, is Washington's coat of arms engraved in gold, with hia motto, Exitua acta probat. Another Washington relic is a sage palm belonging to the White House. The present head gardener has looked up his history, and verifies the fact that it was presented to Gen. Washington by a Baltimore merchant, who got it in Cuba when it had already obtained a respectable age. The plant was for a long time at Mount Vernon, but one day Washington presented! it to a fair visitor who admired it. Tte plant was an h Jirloom until about fi years ago. when with other things was sold at auction and secured by head gardenef of the White House is thnngh to x yeara oiu The Mole'a Eyri. The mole has been supposed to almost destitute of eyes, either throulh disuse or because it has little need such things in its underground habitation. The new idea is that it burrows n the ground to get out of the light. Its eyes are so constructed as to receive only the, impression of light, and that impression is painful or annoying to the animal, which dives underground to get rid of the disagreeable sensation. Ice From (larirn. Glaciers are now "exploited" to fur nish ice for the market. Perhaps the first was that of Du Casset, on Mount Pelvoux, from which the ice is brought down by an aerial line and sent to Paris. At Grindelwald, above Interlaken, the glacier from which the river Lutschine issues, has now been turned to account in this way. (raiua Rewarded.

The offering of a cup of tea seems about the simplest form of hospitality, and on its face appears hardly capable of affording much entertainment. It remained for two ingenious girls to find out a way of relieving "afternoon teas" of their monotony and rendering them truly entertaining. These girls had traveled, and they had observed that tea was served in different ways in different countries. Their idea was to prepare tea for their 1 guests after the method of other lands, serving it in all the more interesting ways in succession. They began with the Russian samovar and the slice of lemon or lime. That was simple enough, but the next "tea" was more novel. It waa a reproduction of tbe Uruguayan mode of tea Jrinking. The tea of that country was used, prepared like Chinese tea, but with the q. inking came the really entertaining part of the affair. There was something far removed from the hackneyed in the sight of a group of guests drinking tea through silver tubes, each of which had at the end a ball-like strainer, known as a bouiba or bombilla. It is little wonder that this tea was pronounced a success. Next on the li" was a Mandarin tea In which a large artistic cup was set iu a brass or silver holder. In this cup the tea was placed and covered with boiling water. The process was continued by the placing of a little saucer inside the cup in an inverted position, the saucer being of such a size that it Just fitted the cup and kept in the steam and flavor of the tea. When the tea was drawn it was poured from the big cup into dainty little ones no larger than an eggshell. A Java tea, served in broad, fiat cups and flavored with Batavia arrack, was fourth on the programme, and was followed by the Formosa, in which the tea was steeped with tea flowers and one cr two orange flowers. The result was a perfume and a flavor of the most intense kind. One of the guests remarked that they were not drinking tea so much as wedding bouquets. 'mmal '1 He farther soutli one fgamZ A census was taken lately in Algeria, and it was found that the youngest Arab married was twelve years old, and that there were very many boys who were married at thirteen and fourteen, while some at fifteen years of ape had several wives. There is a youthful Algerian widower of fifteen and a divorced husbard of the same age. Girls are still more precious, and are sometimes married when only eleven years old, though twelve is the more usual age. There are 1S9 widows of fifteen, and 1,176 divorces of the same age. Women In Ancient F.Kypt. The religious Egyptian believed his ulterior happiness and his everlasting union with the divinities in the eternal world to be wholly dependent upon his preparations beforehand, and with these the wife had much to do. She was, in fact, as the morher of his chil dren, his savior and liberator, for none but a son could pray for the father's soul on its way to paradise, and she was entitled to and received his hom age and loyal obedience. To C are F"reellea. An excellent freckle lotion which is used a great deal in France is made of six ounces of rosewater, half an ounce of glycerine, two ard a half drachms of cherrv laurel water, two and a half drams of simple tincture of benzoin, and one and a half drams of rinely pow dered borax.

No one ever walks in Porto Rico. The mule's the thing there. The women ride s great deaL Tbe better classes use the Knlish side saddle, although a few prefer the more picturesque and safer, but less graceful. S-'panish saddle. In the country ditrkts the pillion is txx-aUnally employed, while among the lower classes n.auy women ride astride without exciting couiineut. Wbt n the natives are both pretty and good riders they display considerable cwjuctry in the saddle. I noticed one rider near Juana Dias a writer says who took my mind back to the old days of chivalry. She was a lovely girl of about fifteen or sixteen, with a face like a madonna and a figure like an arUsfs model. One little foot crept out beneath her silk riding skirt, and to my surprise it was devoid of hosiery. The skin was like polished velvet, an i was of a pinkish gold of an exquisite tint It was shod with a tdipper of satin or silk, embroidered in color, and had an arched instep which made the foot all the more charming by its setting. The time to see the women at their best is on Sunday morning, when they ride from their homes to mass in the nearest church or cathedral. On one Sunday luuruiiij:. while riding leisurely into a ma!l village on my way to this town, I met a crowd of worships l-rs on their way to mass. Nearly all the women were on uiuleback and sat or lolled as if they were in an easy chair in their own homes. A few, probably wealthier than the others or else delicate in health, were accompanied by little darky boys, who held over them a parasol or au unhrella. On Sunday each woman wears a huge rosary, sometimes so Uirfre as to le uncomfortable. I saw several that were so tin wieldly that they went over the shoulders aud formed a huge hue, larger indeed than a string of sleigh liells. These are ornamental rosaries and are not used for prayer. The praying rosary is as small and dainty as those used by fashionable women in our own Komau Catholic churches. Besides Uie fau and the rosary every woman was provided with a neat and often handsomely bound prayer book and a huge lighted cigar or cigarette. This is Indeed the laud for women who love the weed. A few smoke cigarettes and pipes, but a majority like partajas, perfectos. Napoleons and other rolls of the. weed larger than those usually seen in our own land. They smoke them at home and in the streets, at the table or on the balcony, lying in hammocks, or lolling on their steeds, and only desist when within the sacred wails of the church. The moment mass is over and they emerge iuto the sutilight the first thing the women do is to light a fresh cigar aud then climb into the saddle. They make a beautiful picture upon the roads. Imagine an intensely blue sky above, with Ik-Iow rich green vegetables and startling dashes of scarlet, crimson, Vermillion, orange and white from the flowers which seem to bloom the year through, setting off the bright lines of the costumes. It combines the picturesque side of New Orleans life. of Florida scenery, of the Maine lake country aud of the New Hampshire hills.
