A generally Rood au thority says none of these gentlemen will secure the plum, but that a "dark horse" will be sent from the pole after the first ballot has been taken-. There is a pronounced sentiment against giving the place to a farmer or a lawyer. That knocks out Willitts and Ives. Elder has made himself obnoxious by his bulldozing tactics while speaker of the Alliance house of representatives, and Vincent has turned out to be a rabid Prohibi tionist. These are the objections to the prominent candidates. Ives de clares that he is not a candidate, but stands ready to acknowledge the beck of his party. He may, perhaps, be nomi nated for attorney general. None of these men would be acceptable to both the Alliance and Democracy, and, while the Alliance will probably not agree to any open combination, it will so far condescend as to nominate men it thinks will draw Democratic support. Among the Alliance men the open advocates of co-operation declare that every candi date they support must stand on au Alliance platform. DOoiocrats Getting Ready. Washington, June 14.

A new plan developed, which seems to meet with much favor among the leaders of the new party in tins section.

It is now said that General Weaver, who has been most prominently mentioned for the first place, is strongly inclined to favor this ticket.

He had the air of a man of the world. His dress was becoming and not too showy. He seemed to be an individual who had dined -well, who would tell good stories at the club. Stretched out in the barber's chair in the hairdresser's room on School street, instead of settling down with that in different, self satisfied air that usually comes over a man in that situation, he seemed troubled. He looked about from chair to chair, and yet he was not happy. The barber shaved him and was so im pressed that he even forgot to talk him to death. Then the man sat bolt np right in the chair and took an envelope from his pocket. It was scented; the barber could tell that It was written in a lady's hand too. The strange man opened it, took out a note, read it over and over again, then from its folds withdrew a lock of hair. It was golden, and tho victims who were waiting for their turn in the chair saw him kiss the sunny lock and put it back in the envelope. "Hair cut?" asked the barber, as he rubbed the tutts ot nair wnicu sur rounded a bald spot on tho strange man's head. UNO, no, not lor tne world, ne re plied, "I cannot spare any." "Man in next chair has hair like yours, only a little more of it," suggested the barber. "By Jove, he has," said the troubled man, and he darted out of his seat and almost jumped to the occupant of the next chair. "Going to have a hair cut?" asked the strange man. "No," was the rather curt reply. "Well, will you have a hair cut at my expense?" said the man without hesita tion. "I must send my best girl a lock of hair, and I can't spare mine. Come, how mucli is it worth?" and the eyes of the colored boy who brushes coats bulged out be'ond his forehead. "Sell it for a small bottle!" replied tho man with a good growth on his head, and the stranger answeredt "I'll go you." The barber began his work, and a lock of tho man's hair was handed over to tho stranger, who put it in a little silver locket that bore a monogram. Then, when the work was finished the two walked out together. Tho stranger was smiling contented ly, tho clubman grinned, the barber laughed and tho customers gazed on in astonishment. "Wasn't Charley a dear, good fellow to keep his promise and send mo- a lock of his hair?" said tho pretty girl that night as sho took the daintiest sort of a lock from the little box. And all was still but for tho beating of her faithful heart. Boston Herald. VEGrETAEIAN FAEE. VULGARITY IN DESIGN. DOCTOR Mil A WOMAN WHO EATS NO MEAT AND LIVES ON $1.30 A WEEK. reelings of a Monkey. A native of India was sitting in his garden when a loud chattering an nounced the arrival of a largo party of monkeys, which forthwith proceeded to make a meal off his fruits. Fearing the loss of his eutiro crop, he fetched his fowling piece, and, to frighten them away, fired it off, as he thonght, over the heads of tho chattering crew. They all fled away, but, he noticed, left behind upon a bongh, what looked like one fallen asleep, with its head resting upon its arms. As it did not move, ho sent a servant up the tree, who found that it was dead, having been shot through the heart. He had it fetched down and buried be neath the tree, and on tho morrow he saw sitting upon the little mound tho mate of the dead monkey. It remained thcro for several daj-s bewailing its loss. Robert Morley in Nature Notes. The llouinns Sid Not Use Soap. The Romans were not acquainted with tho use of regular soap, but they employed an alkali, with which the greasy dirt was dissolved out of their clothes. This alkali, called nitrum, is referred to by Pliny, but the cheapest solvent was urine, which was mostly used. Ihe clotues were put m this mixed with water and then stamped upon with the feet. This process was performed by old people, while boys lifted tho clothes out of the tubs. The white garments, after being washed were subjected to tho vapor of sulphur, being stretcjied on a frame and the sul phur burned beneath. Poor people in Komo cleansed their bodies with mea of lupins, called lomentiun, which, with . common meai, is snii used m some places for that purpose. Knowledge. Do You Know It?

A great many babies cry out of pure cussedness. They have no reason what ever. I have seen them stop playing to begin to howl, refusing both food and drink. Often a child will wake up, be gin crying, and fall off to sleep again. Babies show individuality, and cry just as adults grumble, scold, lecture, bang tilings about and swear. There may or ma not bo cause for the outburst, but there is a certain amount of relief which has 'h physiological if not a moral value Cor. Baby. Mrs. 3Le Fevre, of New York, Tells About Her Diet of 'uts, Grains and Fraito. It Is Keally Very Attractive Some thing About Those Who Eat Meat. Why is it there are only about 200 vegetarians in New York city, less than the number in either Boston or Chicago? In tho latter city visits to the sanguinary meatpacking establishments have driven people to a nonmeat diet, and there is a large and increasing class that forages upon the fruits, nuts and leaves of the earth. Theao facts were communicated to me the other day by Mrs. Lo Favre, tho leader of New York's vegetarian 200. Sho has not eaten meat for four years. A diet of nuts, fruits and seeds she claims is more wholesome and much cheaper than one composed of flesh. Her thirty day experiment of living on her favorite foods at tho lowest possible cost was recently told of. Sho brought her table board down to $1.30 a week. Sho claims that with this she committed many gastronomical extrava gances and that the price can bo still further pared down. Mrs. Lo Favre goes a littlo further than most vegetarians in discarding roots and leaves altogether. The hum ble potato, tho succulent lettuce and the homely cabbage are not to be found upon her bill of fare, nor wiU she par take of radishes, turnips, carrots or the many items usually so well relished that come under tho head of roots or leaves. She thinks that they are a very poor class of nourishment and intended only for horses and pigs, though under a vegetarian dispensation what tho pigs are intended for it would be difficult to say. Some of the proprietors of vege tarian sanitariums who find potatoes soniawhat cheap and excessively filling for their patients take issue with her on these points. I don't think that Mrs. Le Favre is a very hearty cater, as eaters go, but sho is very well nourished and does a vast amount of work for the fuel she con sumes. I doubt if any meat eater of my acquaintance can do more labor of brain or muscle than she. For her breakfast Bhe eats cereal food, granula, wheatena, rice or corn. Of one of these things sho takes a table spoonful and a half, costing perhaps ono cent, and cooks it. Then she has a cup of coffee, costing about one cent more, and a slice or two of whole grained bread at less than a penny a slice, and concludes tuo repast with an orango or banana. Tho quantities given are not large, bnt they can be increased to suit the appetite, and the heartiest eater, sho thinks, couldn't very well make away with more than ten cents' worth. Tho luncheon consists of a plate of lentil soup, a most nourishing dish, in volving an outlay of about half a ccnL This is followed by a vegetable of some sort well cooked, a few olives or nuts, two slices of bread, some fruit, canned cherries or something like that or pud ding. The check for this meal would be seven or eight cents. Supper is made up of wholo grained or oatmeal bread, preserves, bananas or oranges and a littlo chocolate. Once tins antimeat advocate saw a porter in the east carrying a large piano down tho street on his shoulders. She became interested at ouco and wanted to find out what food would produce such enormous strength. She inquired and found that ho lived chiefly on green cueninbers and garlic, and never de voured flesh at any time. Two-thirds of the people in tho world three-fourths somo people assert never eat meat and wouldn't know how to. In Boston there are vegetarians of tho second generation that is, their parents Jewelry, Tamil ro ami Brlc-a-Brac Tfcaft Shock the iEsth'ete. -There is nothing in modern life more discouraging to the person of taste than the deliberate vulgarity in design which ie so conspicuous in modern mannfac- Ltures, and this is especially true in those matters of adornment or luxury where it would be snpposed that if anywhere would be found the evidences of refine ment and cultivation. If in the articles with which the dwellings and the per sons of the rich are adorned ono does not find evidences of good tasto it is in deed a discouraging outlook for tha seeker, and yet it is in precisely in these things that the most flagrant violations of all aesthetic canons are encouraged. One has but to consider the tricks cf the makers of jewelry to understand tho extent to which this evil has gone. The last whim of the makers of slang is to be seen in the windows of the jeweler wrought out in precious stones. Now the art of the cunning goldsmith is de voted to the making of pigs in gold and gems, now it is some other beast equally inartistic, again it is some idiotic pun, which is enshrined in costly stones or rich enamel, and yet again tho para phernalia of the turf, the gaming table, or what not, absorbs the best skill which the modern world can show in this line. Even worse are the coarse and vulgar designs which are to be seen in the cases of respectable jewelers of the feminine leg or foot, the suggestive and semi-indecent ornaments which ap peal to the tasto of certain classes, not only of men, but of women, who are ap parently perfectly proper members of society. Tho designs of furniture and bric-a- brac are, if anything, worse. It is true that there are good designs to be found, but it is no less true that tho reign of cheap vulgarity is at its triumphant height. The hard and nnsjmpathctic execution of mechanical means which would be tolerable only when directed by tho most delicate and sympathetic tasto is made the more detectable by the coarse and forced manner in which it is used. When the designer goes to the past to purloin a design, if he wishes to hit tho popular taste he selects some ro coco motive of tho worst period, and as a rule it is popular in direct proportion to its worthlessness. When one compares tho ornaments of today with those of the times of our grandfathers he may well ask whether our grandchildren will have as much reason to respect their heirlooms as we have to look with pride npon ours. If one takes the so called souvenir spoon3 with which tho shop windows have been filled, how many of them aro even toler able in design? It is always easier to find fault than to find out a remedy, and it is undoubt edly true that in the present case the matter is largely the result of tho in crease of material prosperity among those classes wnere neither taste nor in telligence has had time to bo developed. The markets are controlled to a great extent by the new rich, and it is not un natural that the impress of their vulgar it' should be left in a broad mane upon the arts of the tune. It is no less true abroad, however, than it is in this coun try that the designers have apparently degenerated, and the explanation given does not so well apply abroad as in this country. No doubt the taste of tho world is being educated, but tho problem today is to educate the taste of the many in stead of tlis tasto of the few, and it is far more difficult than any which has ever been presented to tho devotees of the esthetic in the history of civilization before.

There is no vegetarian restaurant in the United States, and the nonmeat eaters want to start ono in New York. Lon don has at least fort places where ono can dine upon the vegetablo fat of tho land without tasting flesh.

Vegetarians everywhere realize that tho best way to preach their doctrine is to induce people to eat ono of their meals.

I think we should eat only the very best form of nourishment, and I consider that the nuts and fruits answer this requirement." New York Herald. A Blacksmith Saves the Life cf a Little Giul Minnie Carney of Lytle City, Iowa, was perhaps as near leaving this world as any one can be, and recover. She was sick with cholera morbus: completely exhausted and unconscious. The physicians in consultation decided the case was hopeless and beyond their control. Chas. J. Newcomb, a blacnsmith, walked four miles through the darkness and storm, to get a remedy he had himself used, and which he firmly believed would cure her. That medicine wa3 Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Ilemedy. He obtained part of a bottle, with which he hastily returned, and gave the little sufferer a half tpaspoonful, which relieved her and consciousness gradually returned.
