FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 23. 1S97. It must not be forgotten that Weyler is till holding down the insurgents in Cuba. At least he says he Ls. "Why is every Popocratic gathering in this State afflicted with DeWitt C.

De Witt? Can't they get rid of him? Latest advices from Princeton, are to the effect that Grover attended another pink tea as a post Lenten dissipation. It wouM be unfair to Pennsylvania if somebody should throw a blanket over our Legislature when it goes to Xew York and kidnap it. The death of William S. Holman, of Indiana, removes from life's action an honest man. Mr.

rTolnian was not a great statesman, but he served Li's people faithfully, and they will miss him. Offers of aid are made to Greece from citizen of every civilized country, but up to date no proffers of assistance have readied Turkey, and she will need a good deal of it before the cruel war is over. Uncle Chauncey Forward Black has returned borne from his visit to Harrisburg this week and taken the Spirit of Jefferson with him. He will put the Spirit in the camphor bag until it is time to go visiting again. It is about time that Harrisburg bad an ordinance to compel drivers of ash carts to cover them while on the streets.

One of the greatest nuisances in the city is the flying ashes from the carts on the way to the dumping grounds. Yes, the "Democratic party in the State has resumed its old gait and its former freedom of action," but only in the minds of the Popocratic organs. The Democratic party in this State has no more freedom of action than a hobbled mnle. A great many Greeks residing in this country have gone home to fight and they will materially add to the strength of the Grecian army. Some of them are naturalized American citizens, but their love for Helas takes them back to fight in the mountains of Macedonia against the hated Turk.

The disposition in the Legislature is to kill the civil service bill. The active workers in the party throughout, the State aTe beginning to ask the legislators what they have to hope for if all the offices are to be permanently filled. That is a hard nut to crack, and has set the average legislator to thinking. The Popoerats in Pennsylvania meet and resolute and denounce William F. Harrity and all other pood Democrats, and for three years they have the say, but when it comes to making up the roll of delegates to a national convention Mr.

Harrity steps in and walks off with everything in sight. It ia a way he has. When Senator Mason breezily criticises the antiquated rules in the Senate, he does not make friends in that body, but Le pleases the nation. The rules of the Senate would disgrace a backwoods debating society, and the venerable fossils of that body th'nk they are all right. Thoy need a few more Masons to stir up the animals.

When the Popocratic State committee net in Harrisburg tlrs week there was not a man of prominence present, nor one capable of intelligent leadership. Fopoeratie party of Pennsylvania has fallen pretty far down when the John Moon beam Garmaus and the Tommy Ryans boss it in Pennsylvania. But nothing else could be expected from a parry that has Bryan as its chief apostle. Pennsylvania is going to put on airs at The Nashville centennial, and it looks as if she will have a fine exhibit at the big how. Committees have already been appointed to arrange for a display of our agricultural and mineral wealth, while our educational resources will be properly represented.

Pennsylvania has a habit of showing up well at thes expositions and will do herself proud at Nashville. The Philadelphia papers having gotten around to the "Telegraph's" way of thinking that the Philadelphia Building Commission should be abolished lecause it is incapable of further good and a useless expense to the city, they may in time accept with resignation the fact that the Capitol is to remain in Harrisburg. Give them time enough lots of time and they will get around to everything that is good and right. One would hardly think it possible that Joe Sibley would get up in a Popocratic free silver meeting and acknowledge that Bryan's election would have created a panic, yet that is what the slick Joseph said in Harrisburg at the meeting of the Popocratic State committee. He added, however, that rt would have leen a panic like a spring storm it would have left the atmosphere clearer than before.

Mr. Sibley has his hum orous side. It is said that Captain George W. Skinner, of Fulton, the present pension agent at Pittsburg, has been selected to the candidate for State Treasurer on the Popocratic ticket this year, and that ex Representative Walter Ritter, of Lycoming1, will be the candidate for Auditor aeral. That is a ticket all head.

Cap tain Skinner is a heavy weight if ever one existed, while Mr. Ritter is decidely a light weight as to size. They will ninko a fairly good Popocratic ticket as far as Popocratic tickets go, and will be kuowo.1 under by the usual Ufpublienii majority. The people, of Pennsylvania have about concluded that the Popocratic party is out of business to stay, and will contribute' every way to keep it out. The man who goes on the Popocratic ticket this yer does so with th knowledge that he if a hop tfcat i wnrs than Youn Mr Baily, of Texas, whose Democratic leadership In Congress has baen disputed by some jealoua Democrats who have been in that body longer than he, shows every day that he is well qualified to lead.

He was taken to task yesterday because he would not fight, but ho showed how urterly futile a fight would be when the Republicans have such an overwhelming majority, and then to show his contempt for his traducers, voted with the Republican majority. Bailey is right. There is uo use in wasting strength, iu trying to defeat the will of tho majority in Congress, and the people who do so make themselves ridiculous. John L. Sullivan insists that he is in earnest in challenging Fitzsininions, and it may be that he really means what he says, but when he stands before Fita wearing six ouiK gloves, and it is a violent supposition to say that, he will wish he had never seen a prize ring.

The fact is that a gang of leeches have attached themselves to the poor old played out fighter and are influencing him to issue these challenges to tight in. the hope that they will be' the gainers. Sullivan in his present condition could not box ten rounds, much less fight hard battle of that length. If the new fish bill passed finally in the House will onl assist in the elimination of the fish) pirate along the Susquehanna it will do a great deal of good. FOR NEEDLE AND THREAD.

A Little Basket That Is Vsef at For Traveling Womankind. Every woman knows the convenience of an ever ready needle and thread and has felt the want of her own equipment daring a stay at some hotel or a visit to a friend's honse. A little basket 1 ht can be packed flat iu a trunk is made by cutting one piece of heavy cardboard 9 inches long by 6 inches wide to form the bottom, two for the sides and two for the ends in the shape indicated by the drawing. Let the former measure inches at the top, 10 at the lower edge and the ends 8 for the top and 6 far the lower. Select for the covering colored linen if you aim at service and durability, figured china silk if you wish to make a pretty trifle, although the linen makes a good effect.

Lay the cloth, silk or linen upon the table; then npon it lay the cardboard bottom, and with the sides and ends each in its own place so that the lower edges exactly meet the sides and ends of the center board then move each one quarter of an inch outward and put npon it a weight to hold it in place while you mark the outline of the basket upon the material. That done, remove the pieces of board and cut the cloth half an inch larger all round than the marked outline, after which cut a separate piece for each of the five bits of board, allowing half an inch on all sides. Cover one side of each portion with its bit of silk or linen and paste the edges neatly over into place. Then when they are dry attach a pocket to each end and lay them all down upon the large bit of silk, each in its own place, taking care to preserve the quarter rilch distance between each section and the central piece of braid. Turn under the protruding edges of the material and paste them down; then paste each portion neatly into place and put under a heavy weight to dry.

When quite firm, sew a bit of narrow ribbon to each corner and midway between it and the joint with the bottom of tbo basket. When in use, tie all these together, as the drawing shows, and a perfect sewing basket will be formed. When you wish to pack it in your trunk, untie the ribbons, and both sides and ends will fall flat. For the handle use as heavy cardboard as will curve 'without breaking and wind its entire length with ribbon, finishing each end with a bow. Beneath these bows attach patent hooks, two each, and on the other side of the basket sew fast the corresponding eyes.

The handle can then be readily hooked into place or unfastened and tacked without trouble. Mary Earle. WOMEN WORKERS. Tbeir Pay and Employments In Great i Britain. There were never so many women engaged in money making as there arc today.

Just what the effect of this condition is and what its results may be in an economical sense it is not Die present purpose to state. Neither is it necessary to express an opinion as to whether it indicates an advance or a recession in the world's progress that the woman of the present must work. She is, however, growing more self reliant and competent, and she has better educational advantages than ever before. She has already rejected the old notion that marriage is her only vocation, and is going about her work rather more cheerfully than men, if not with so good a preparation. Of the something like 18,000,000 women in the British islands a very large proportion are engaged in various employments, but they do not get as good wages as are paid in this country.

It is estimated that there are 450 editors, authors and journalists there. Five of them make 20,000 a year, but these are writers of fiction. One woman journalist makes $3,500 a year, and there are quite a number who make from $1,000 a year with their pens. Of tho lady artists there are not a half dozen who make $1,500 a year. In the domain of learning the highest reward known to be paid is $5,000 a year.

There are four positions occupied by ladies at Oxford or Cambridge which pay this sum. Ordinary school teachers make any where between $100 and $1,000 a year, the multitude earning less than $300 per year. For governesses the average pay is $100 a year with board, and at present there are about 125,000 women engaged in this occupation. The popular employment for girls there as well as in the United' States is shorthand and type writing, and the Mages vary between $4 and $8 a week. Almost every railway company in Great Britain now employs lady clerks, and the salaries range from $2.50 to $20 per week.

There are likewise a good many female postal employees far more than 1 here are in this country. The pay for this work is rarely over $7 per week. The number of women employed as shop hands is innumerable. They have, of course, monopolized the millinery business, as they have In this country, and the florist's business as they have not on this side of the water. These facts and figures tire given merely to show women that they are perhaps quite as well paid iu this country as they are in any other uml the sun, of course, their wrgo as compared with that of men is not what it should be.

The battleship Iowa, which recently made a record of 1 7 knots an hour on a speed test, is a veritable monarch of the seas. There is no warship afloat which she could not meet on the high seas in single combat and on equal terms. While she is not nearly so epeedy as some of our cruisers and has not the big guns of the Indiana or Massachusetts she has an armament beside which that of the former is like a toy pistol to a cannon, and she would be as steady as a house in seas which would bury the gun decks of tho latter. The vessels of the Indiana class are intended for coast defense, while the Iowa is able to steam out into midocean and engage anything that comes along. The Iowa is 360 feet long and of 72 feet beam.

Every time she forces herself one length ahead she displaces 11,410 tons of water. Of her total weight, 3,000 tons is devoted to her armor, which ranges in thickness from 2 inches to 16 inches. Besides her four THE BATTLESHIP IOWA. torpedo tubes the Iowa's principal armament counts of four 12 inch guns mounted in two barbette turrets, forward and the other aft. These turrets have ponderous walls of harveyized steel 15 inches thick, behind which the gunners are safe from almost any shot that can be hurled at them.

On the Fides of the ship are four smaller turrets, each of which contains two 8 inch rifled guns, which discharge 250 pound missiles that w.fil pierce eight inches of steel at a distance of two miles. In addition to these big guns there are six rapid fire guns, which discharge 33 pound shells with such ramditv that I five of them can be kept in the air at tho same time. Then in the Iowa's fighting tops are more rapid fire guns of smaller caliber, so that she could go into action behind a perfect hailstorm of shot and shell. The ship's twin screws are driven by triple expansion engines of 11,000 horsepower. A striking feature of the ship is her towering smokestacks, which rise 100 feet above her grate bars.

TO WORkTfOR BIMETALLISM. General Paine Better Known as a Yachts man Than a Politician. Both Senator Wolcott and ex Vice President Stevenson, who are soon to go to Europe as monetary commissioners in the interests of international bimetallism, are very well known, but General Charles J. Paine of Boston has never been before the pnblic in an official position before. Gencml Paine is probably better known as the leading member of the syndicate which built the cup defending yacht Puritan.

He also fitted out the Mayflower and Volunteer, which defeated English cup hunters. Yacht racing, however, is merely ono of his diversions. He is one of the most promiueut business men iu Massachusetts and is a deep student of financial questions. General Paine was born in Boston about 64 years ago. He was graduated I.

KM U.l. IIAKI.KS .1. from Harvard and entered thu Union IMn as captain of volunteers. He served throughout the war with some lisl in, being brevet ted several limes, and when lie was finally mustered ont he had attained the rank of brigadier general. He led a brigade at the 'icsr" Port Hudson and later served 1 niiiU General Butler at the attack on Fort Fisher.

I As a lawyer General Paino stands bigh in his profession, and he holds many important ollieial positions in large corporations. A Silk Fixisn bolero. To Be Worn Over a Shirt Waist wltb a Broadcloth Skirt Trimmed witli Braid A. Very ffeetiv little bolero for spring wear requires four yards of sijfe finish clotfl. A Serviceable Bolero.

A silk finish goods is a material that is actually cloth but which across the room looks exactly like siik. Only experts can detect the difference. It is much more serviceable than silk and is less expensive. You will find that the sleeves take up the greater part of the material. As you are going to wear this coat over a shirt waist, you will need tho very large sleeves of last summer.

Make them with an immense shoulder puff and you will find that they are still fashionable, for many others will wear them. Broadcloth skirts are generally trimmed with braid and worn with these little jackets. Broadcloth is not very expensive this spring. It is lined with a cheap material and ornamented with several rows of braid of different width. Helen GreyPage.
