There will be no "men's days." no- can members invite their husbands, brothers cr. "other girls' brothers" to have luncheon with them there, and the only recognition of their existence is the reception room, -where "the man" may call for the young- woman whom he is to escort to theatre or dinner. The club Is a sew departure in New-York in organizations, having no object except the purely utilitarian one of providing a comfortable resting place for its members, a large proportion of whom are suburban.

Most of those who live in Mar have secured membership in the club because they have country -homes also, in which they pass much of the year. Already there are four hundred members enrolled, and about a fourth of the number availed themselves of the clubhouse privileges yesterday. All of No. 9 and a part of No. 7 East are occupied by the club, the upper stories being connected.

The sofa pi-low has a wider latitude, perhaps, in the household than almost any other furnishing. It contributes to the general comfort, fills up ell sorts of hollows in chairs, sofas and seats, gives Just the right touches of color to corners otherwise sombre, and brings Into harmony warlike surroundings. As the average housewife has appreciated more and more the important part which the sofa pillow plays in the adornment of her homo, the manufacturer has kept pace with an ever widening variety of coverings, until with the opening of the present season it would seem as if the limir of his ingenuity mur. have been reached. Shadow silk is one of the newest fabrics shown this tall, ami is admirably suited to almost any place.

The character of the silk is suggested by its name. soft. overshot surface, dull, changeable colors and conimiiHoiiii designs fitting it for the drawing mom or the den. The revival of ribbon work is making possible especially exquisite effects on satins. A pillow just finished is made of white satin, embroidered with ribbon in a Dresden design.

It is finished with a broad white satin ruffle, on which the delicate colors of the floral pattern are repeated in frilled rows of the tiny ribbon. Only on drawing: room pillows now are ruffles often seen. Others are left Vain on the edges, have their corners drawn in. are finished with cord or have pompons at the corners Pompons are also used in more ornamental kinds. There are fabrics of every sort and to fit every kind of a need and purse in pillow Cottons and linens always find favor for bedrooms and other places where it is desirable to wash them occasionally, and for these nothing can be better suited than the printed chintz, with its dainty and quaint patterns.

"Ait" squares of all descriptions are plentiful, some doing credit to their name, and many more sadly discrediting It. The startling and "Gibson" designs continue favorites among the. young people. These require a few stitche? in coarse outline to produce the desired effect. Bulgarian work, which Is more used for table covers.

Brocades and similar weaves run the gamut from pure silk through every decree of wool to nil cotton in patterns that recall old tapestries.

OLD FASHIONED DESSERTS.

RECIPES FOR THANKSGIVING INDIAN PUDDING AND PUMPKIN PIE. The Thanksgiving dinner would seem incomplete to many a New-England family if among the desserts which close the feast Indian meal pudding and pumpkin pie were not to be found. Tradition has given these dainties a place second only to the turkey among the essentials of the real oid. fashioned good time, and it will not be long before in many households, especially country homes, an atmosphere of excitement will pervade the culinary department. "Unless I've got a whole row of deep dish pumpkin pies on the pantry shelf and a lot of other desserts I can't get up a real thankful feeling." said a New-England woman when discussing the approaching feast.

Some of these desserts were discussed by Miss Helen Louise Johnson at the last lesson of the fall course which she has been giving in the assembly hall of the Young Men's Christian Association Building. Brooklyn. Baked Indian podding was spoken of. although the lecturer was not able to follow her usual method of preparing the food described in the presence of the audience, as the pudding has to be baked for six hours. The fault with the average Indian meal pudding is that it is not sufficiently cooked to be digestible, she said.

One or two hours at most are allowed by many housekeepers for baking a pudding which cannot be properly cooked under six hours. The recipe given was as follows: Three and one-half quarts of milk, three neaping tablespoonfuls of cornmeal. one tiii.ksrioontul of butter, one-half pint of molasses, one ttaspoonful alt an Singer to taste. Scald one 'mart of milk, add to it the molasses, butter salt and spice Stir enough milk into the cornmeaJ to make it smooth, then add this to the milk mixture. Cook the whole together for rive, minutes, then turn into a greased baking dish.

Have this dish large enough to allow for the increased bulk of the pudding after the cornmeal has cooked and the milk has been added. Put the pudding in a moderate oven, and when a crust forms on top stir it from the bottom or the dish and add one pint of cold milk. Be sure that this is thoroughly blended. Continue cooking and repeat this process every half lf necessary at more frequent intervals if it browns too rapidly. The pudding should bake six hours in all, and the entire quantity of milk should be taken up by the meal In the manner described.

Serve the pudding hot with sauce. This sauce may consist of butter and sugar creamed and flavored. A favorite mixture for this purpose consists of maple sugar srirred into rich cream and kept cold until pound over the pudding. Boiled Indian pudding is a somewhat heavier dish than the baked article, because of the suet added and once it has cooled It cannot be heated to advantage. It Is more easily prepared, however, all the ingredients are put in at first, and it does not require the constajit watching which the baked pudding receives.

For these reasons it is frequently made to complete the menu of a "boiled dinner." For boiled Indian pudding the ingredients required are one quart of milk, one pint of Indian meal five tablespoonfuls of dark molasses and two spoonfuls of suet chopped line. Bcald the milk and pour it over the meal. Add the other ingredients and mix thoroughly. Put in a. pudding bag or mould and boil four hours.

Serve with any hard or liquid sauce. The ingredients for pumpkin pie are one and a half cupfuls of pumpkin pulp, two cupfuls of milkone teaspoonful each of salt, butter, cinnamon and ginger, one tablespoonful of molasses, two eggs and SU the pumpkin into small pieces, remove the toft part and seeds. Cook in a steamer until tender then remove cover and cook until the water has evaporated. This will require some care, as pumpkin bur easily. When It has become sufficient iv dry.

press the pulp through a colander and ready to be mixed with the other Ingredients, Stir in the salt, butter, cinnamon, ginger, molasses and iugar When the mixture has cooled, beat the andstlr them In. Line a deep pie with nfe cr it and fill with the mixture. Bake forty mmutes in a moderately Blow oven. JUVENILE DEPRAVITY. From The Chicago Tribune.

TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 19. 1001. MISS APPLEBEE OX HOCKEY. SHE THINKS IT KEEPS A WOMAN YOUNG -COLLEGE GIRLS' ENTHUSIASM FOR THE SPORT.

At Wellesley this autumn English field hockey is the game par excellence. It has been introduced by Miss Constance Applebee. who comes out to give a lesson about once in two weeks to the freshman class, the first to receive instruction in this country. "Regarded from the standpoint of healthful muscular activity." said Miss Appiebee the other day. "there is no golf, tennis, basketball, bicycling or can compare with hockey as the English girls play tbe game, and 1 am sure the American girls will 00 quite when they have learned how.

us the frame can be played from the end of September to the first of May. quite as it can here. It is greatly enjoyed, ami it keeps women young indeed, often a mother and daughter will belong- to the same team. The youngest members of our regular hockey teams are about seventeen, but women play up to the age of fifty. "Training usually begins while the girl is in school, twelve or thirteen years old.

so that by the time she Is twenty-five she has become a thorough adept in scientific hockey is scientific when correctly played. Since the All-England Women's Hockey Association was formed, five years ago, we have had an All-England team, made up from the best players, winners at the county matches; and. so far. it stands at the head, after having played with the Wales and Ireland teams. "English women players wear skirts which clear the ground by at least six inches, and a Tarn o' Shanter cap, with a quill or club emblem, is the conventional headgear.

The large teams have their own specially designed costumes, and. of course, choose their own colors. In the recent match game between the England and Ireland teams the English costumes were skirts of a rose red shade, with Tarns to match, and white shirt waists, while the Ireland team members were dressed in dark green skirts, light green shirt waists and dark green caps, a shamrock leaf on the blouse pocket and on the cap, where the English girl had a rose. The of all this color against the green was delightful. "The general qualifications for all outdoor sports hold good for hockey, and, naturally, the better the physique of the player the better her game.

It Is in no sense a dangerous game, and It ought not to be in the least rough. Roush play In hockey is never good play, and it is always bad form. There is no chance of hitting with each other's sticks, as the players are obliged to keep the relative positions they hold at the lineup. The captain is the only person' allowed to speak, and she gives briefest directions. The strictest etiquette is observed in piaying the hockey matches in England." Wellesley has admirable quarters for hockey, a portion of the athletic field adjoining the tennis courts being utilized.

Hockey grounds are laid out. 100 'by 60 yards, and marked off in 50 and 25-yard linos. Two goal are placed at each end of the grounds. Tbe hockey ball resembles that used for hard, white and about 4'i inches In diameter. Two "elevens," twenty-two players in all, are necessary to a match same, and there must be two umpires and two referees.

The players are divided into forwards, halfbacks and backs, and the regular lineup is five forwards, three halfbacks and the right and left backs. The eleventh player, called the goal keeper. Is stationed at the goal. The captain, who leads the game, is usually centre forward. The forwards must be good runners, the halfbacks must possess agility and endurance; not so much is expected of the right and left backs, but the goal keeper must be especially calm and steady.

Starting the came Is called the "bully off." Then the two centre forwards try to gain possession of the ball; they strike the ground and each other's Sticks three times in quick succession, then aim for th. first knock at the ball. Each side tries to gain possession, and to send the ball through Its opponent's territory between the goal posts. About 35 minutes are allowed for each half of the game. and the side scoring the larger number of goals In seventy minutes wins th" game.

Miss Applebee has already given several lessons to the Wellesley freshmen, and during her last recent visit put the to.imn upon nome advanced points. The game is being developed hi-re as a regular feature of the physical education scheme. Miss Lucille Eaton Hill, director of gymnasium. hopes to form a field hockey association In this country eventually, similar to the English organization, and that the game may he introduced Into the preparatory and hich schools. "Girton College.

In Cambridge, and Somrrville College. In Oxford, have regular hockey says Mis? Applehee. "and all Encllrh high schools and preparatory schools of good boast their hockey elevens." An exhibition game of hockey Is to be played on the Wellesley green Monday between freshmen and a recently organized sophomore, eleven. In oysters and most kinds of fish, a little lemon Juice added to the fat in which they are cooked improves their flavor. Sardines prepared In this way make an excellent dish for Sunday night suppers.

For these, use a tahle3poonful of the lemon Juice to a tanlespoonful of butter. Creamed oysters are improved by the addition of the lemon Juice. Put half a tablespoonful of butter in the pan with a teaspoonful of the Juice. When the mixture Grabbles, drop in twenty oysters, one by one. and cook them until they begin to ruffle, Remove the oysters with a fork to a hot dish and drain off the liquor Into a cup.

Put two level tablespoonfuls of butter Into the pan. and when It is melted add two tablespoonfuls of flour and cook for three minutes. Then add a cupful of hot milk and a cupful of the oyster liquor (drained from tho pan) and cream mixed. Cook and stir until smooth and thick. Drop in the oysters, and stir In quickly the yolks of two eggs, and serve at once.

If a thicker sauce is wanted, use heaping tablespoonfuls of flour. Some people like the flavor of a small, thin strip of lemon peel cooked with the cream sauce. Bmelts are delicious covered -with lf-mon Juice and allowed to stand for an hour before cooking. Then r-ill them In flour and saute or fry them in deep fit. If.

after the fish have been rolled In the flour, the heads and tfiiks nre fastened together with a toothpick, and they are cooked In that shape, they may ed as a border for thf platter, while the DOtai cupies the The fastenings should, of course, removed before sending them to the ta! A delicious dish for luncheon or supper Is made of green peppers and clams. Put a tablespoonful of butter in the pan and cook In It fur five minutes a preen pepper chopped fine. Then add the hard parts of twenty clams chopped fine, and cook them four minutes. Put in a third of a cupful of the clam Juici- and th" soft parts of the clams and cook three minutes longer. Season with salt and paprika and serve on toast.

One Of the many pretty trifles now to be seen in the large shops Is a tiny purse of silk meshes and with sterling silver top. The chain has ring in the middle, just large enough to slip over the finger, so that one can carry change for carfare without Inconvenience. A fetching novelty theatre bags Is of Dresden figured taffeta, outlined with spangles or beads.

Another style Is of plain satin or peau de sole, with a design embroidered In beads. The "gate top" of v. or two ago is replaced by the curved top of soiid metal, either of sterling or plated silver or gun metal. In some of the shops there are the most adorable South American Jars and baskets, made of green or brown tree fibre. The shapes are quaint and Odd and the decoration Is bizarre to the last degree, but they are exceedingly artistic.

There seems to be a decided reaction from the frivolous French and luxurious Oriental Rtyle? or furnishing, and the somewhat severe and Puritanic mode is now in order.

WHILE HE FIGHTS A MAN WHO SCATTERED MONEY. A stylishly dressed young man amused himself for nearly an hour yesterday by throwing nickels, dimes and quarters to a crowd of nearly hundred school children who had collected around him at the southeast corner of Twentyfirst-st. and Eighth-aye. The excitement was only ended after the young man had mixed himself up in a fijtht with a bootblack and three policemen had been sent from the West Twentieth-st. station to quell the disturbance.

The policemen had apparently placed the man under arrest, but after walking a block they let him go. The only explanation that could be obtained at the station house was that the young man was a friend of the policemen who had interfered. At 3 p. m. the children began to file out of school.

Just as the first batch was passing him, the young man dove his hand into his coat pocket, and. pulling out a handful of small change, showered it over their heads. The children made a wild scramble for the money, dropping their books and going down on their hands and knees in an effort to get the coins. The young man repeated his action again and again, until the crowd, which had been largely increased, blocked the sidewalk. At last the store of change gave out.

but the children cheered and called for more. The man told the children to wait and he would get some more change. He went into the saloon of Henry Hirsch, on the opposite corner, and emerged soon afterward with his hands full of coins. After this was exhausted he went back into the saloon for more, but it was refused. The young man began to protest, and.

drawing from his pocket a large roll of bills, shouted. "I'll buy the saloon!" He became so boisterous that the bartender ordered an Italian bootblack to put him out. The Italian grasped the man by the coat collar and pushed him to the street. When the two men reached the sidewalk, they fell, and rollei around, striking each other with their fists. The crowd of children who had assembled outside the door resented the action of the Italian and pounced on him.

pulling his hair and scratching his face. The Italian retreated into tho saloon with the young man him. When they got inside a free tight ensued, from which the young man came out second best. When he emerged his left eye was closed and he presented a dilapidated appearance. The children decided to have revenge on the Italian, and soon his bootblack stand was thrown out into the middle of the street and broken up.

The policemen arrived on the scene just then, and the crowd scattered. SEWER BLAMED FOR DELAY. DRIVE) VIADUCT rONTRAfTOR SAYS HE HAD BIT OUT OTHER 3.

Mr.

Clausen said that he was determined to have work completed as soon as possible, and Instructed Mr. Holler to push the contractor as much as possible.

delegated him to procure the loan. Mr. Boyd was classmate of Mr. Gould, and on his rej. on of the possibilities in coffee plantations Mr.

Gould advanced the money. When Boyd essayi to collect his commission he says that Vale denied there was to be any consideration, and refused to pay. John Boyd, father of Richard C. Boyd. said yesterday to a Tribune reporter that the coffee plantations in Colombia were at a standstill on account of the revolution there, but that when hostilities ceased Mr.

Vale's plantation, which was unusually fertile, would yield a income. Mr. Gould, he said, was In no danger of losing any part of bis loan, because it was tied up in the land. which could be taken Its owner as a result of the revolution. Within the last two years Colombia, which had always made larKe shipments of coffee to York, had not produced any coffee for the Importers fa re.

MONEY RAISED FOR A CHURCH. A GOODLY SUM SUBSCRIBED BY MEMBERS OK THE SIMPSON METHODIST EFISCO- I'AL. CONGREGATION. At the morning and evening services on Sunday the members of the Simpson Methodist Episcopal Church. near Brooklyn, raised by subscription $20,000 for the purpose of making extensive repairs on the church next This Is considered a remarkable achievement, when It is remembered that the members of the church are not wealthy.

Nine years ago, when the Rev. J. O. Wilson was pastor, was pledged to free the church from debt, but the subscriptions were obtained over a period of a number of weeks: The amount pledged at that time, all except $10, was collected, and it is believed that an equally good result will he obtained in collecting the pledged on The pastor of the Simpson church Is the Rev.

PABST PORTICO MUST COME DOWN. LEGAL CONTROVERSY OF TWO YEARS' STANDING DECIDED IN CITY' 3 FAVOR. After a hearing yesterday in the Supreme Court of the action brought by the city against Charles Tborley and James B. Regan, the owners of tha Pabst Hotel, in between Broadway and to compel the defendants take down the in front of the hotel, which occupies city property valued at $34,000.

Justice Mc- Adam decided in favor of the city, and said he would grant a mandatory injunction calling on the defendants immediately to remove the portico. The litigation between the city and the defendants has occupied the attention of the Suprema Cfturt for two years, and the efforts of the city authorities to have the portico removed has been several times frustrated by counter-actions begun by the defendants. The city held that the construction and maintenance of the structure were unauthorized, were against the laws of the State, and that its maintenance constituted a nuisance. Thorley and Regan in February. 1901.

applied for an Injunction restraining the Cortfmissioner of Highways from taking down the portico, and the suit decided yesterday was the result of this proceeding. Justice McAdcim at that time denied the defendants's application for an injunction. MR. TESLA'S LATEST PATESTB, MEANS DEVISED TO INCREASE THE SENSITIVENESS OF RECEIVING APPARATUS IN WIRELE3P TELEGRAPHT. Several taken out by Nikola Tesla within the last few days are described by "The Electrical World and Engineer" and "The Western Electrician." They all represent methods and devices to be employed in wireless telegraphy, and relate exclusively to receiving apparatus, regardless of transmitter or the medium by which the impulses are conveyed.

Those who have studied Marconi's system know that at the receiving station a short circuit of wire is made to Inclose a small "local" battery, an instrument called a "sounder" which ticks off the messages as in the Morse system, and a device Invented by Branly and known as a "coherer." Under ordinary circumstances, the current from the battery is not strong enough to force its way around the circuit and to actuate the sounder. But when Hertz waves from some distant point reach the coherer they lessen Its resistance and allow the sounder to respond. Now, when these waves come from too great a distance they are too weak to Influence the coherer. The special object of Mr. Tesla's recent researches, therefore, has been to increase the effect of feeble impulses.

The most important expedient resorted to by him is to put Into the receiving circuit a familiar bit of apparatus, a condenser. This acts like a storage battery, and intensifies the action of the incoming; waves upon the sounder. Incidentally, there are one or two other attachments, of a purely mechanical and technical character, which need not be described here. They are designed to enable the condenser to do Its work more effectively. One other idea, covered by a recent patent, deserves mention, however.

It is intended for service only when the Incoming signals are given by light, or radiance closely akin thereto. It is a well known property of selenium that when light falls upon It its electrical conductivity is increased. By putting a bit of this metal in his receiving circuit at the right point. Mr. Tesla makes it serve the same purpose that the coherer does in Marconi's system.

It permits the local battery to act on the sounder. THE CHARLESTOy 770 V. The New-York State Commission to the Carolina Interstate and West Indian Exposition has Just returned from a trip of inspection ta Charleston. Concerning the exposition S. C.

Mead. the president of the commission and assistant secretary of the Merchants' Association, said: The plan of the Charleston exposition exceeds those of the Atlanta and Nashville expositions. Pennsylvania, Maryland. Illinois and other States have- erected buildings, and are making efforts to place exhibits from their various manufacturers, with the purpose of securing the trade of the Southern States. The conditions In the South are such that that section of the country is most promising in its purchasing power for the next decade.

As far as we can ascertain, the New- York merchants and manufacturers do not seem to be properly represented among the exhibitors. The mild climate, the historical surroundings of Charleston and the attractiveness of the exposition ought to result in drawing a large number of Northern visitors to it. The New-York State Building is just about completed. It next to the Art Gallery, the most beautiful building- on the grounds from an architectural standpoint. THE VARIOUS DIVORCE LAWS.
