12 THE OMAHA- DAILY BEE : WEDNESDAY , MAY , 11 , 1898. SIX BACHELOR MAIDS. Or , the Downfall of the Triple Affiance. "January 1 , 1896 Perfectly lovely time to day. No young men callers were allowed at the Advanced Young Woman's business college , and It seemed so nice not to be compelled to smirk and smile and listen to lot of silly compliments and speeches. I never fully realized before what a bore the men arc ! 'Half a dozen of us girls got to talking tn'c'lnattcr ' over tonight , and finally resolved ' to paddle our own canoes through life , and let Hue men do the same , BO far as we are comferneci. To make- the resolution moro 'binding we formed a club known as the 'Bachelor Maids' Triple Alliance. ' I suppose - pose wo ought to have called It the Sex tuple Alliance , seeing there are six of us , but Lottie Dili-ton said Triple Alliance sounded better and was just aa binding , so wo called It that. After we had the name settled on one of the girls said there was a triple alliance of some sort In Europe , and wo might be Infringing on their copyright , but none of use could remember exactly what It was about , or who got It up , so wo deckled to take the chances of thcro being a patent on It. "I am president of the club won't It look grand when It comes to ha printed on the club stationery ? 'Phyllis Potter , presi dent of the Bachelor Maids' Triple Alliance ! ' and the other members are Lottie Durton , Maud Spencer , Edith Wilson , Mabel Thurn- ton and Hello Richardson. There are to bo no dues or admission fee , except $1 each for a suitable pin , with the monogram 'B. take too long ) bring disgrace on the club by getting married. "No , It will bo safer to stick to the original membership the six strong-willed , vigorous minded founders of the 'B. M , T. A. ' We arc reasonably euro that they at least will bo faithful. "Tho club stationery also came today , and I couldn't help feeling a glow of bachelor maidenly pride as I saw the words 'Phyllis Potter , president , ' In the daintiest of script under the name of the club at the top of the letterheads and on the envelopes. "I Immediately sat down and wrote a note to every frjend I could think of using the club paper , of course Just to Impress them with my new title. " ' Maids' Alliance * "That 'Bachcjor Triple stationery Is golng to come handy , by the way , In case a oung man ever has the misguided auJacjty to propose to me. All that will bo necessary Is to hand him one of those lettcr'ticadlngs and ho will ECO at once that there Jsno hope for him. This will bo much simpler than writing or ex plaining matters to him verbally , besides being an easyl ay of letting him down. "Juno 22 Tomorrow Is graduation day , when the members of the 'B. M. T. A. ' must separate and go out Into the world to battle for themselves , EO tonight we had a sort of farewell 'jollification to bind us closer together and strengthen the vow wo took upon ourselves at the beginning of the year. It was really Inspiring to listen to the declarations of Independence , now. ti Wo FORME D A CLUB M. T. 'A. ' engraved on it. Each girl Is to wear the pin constantly as a reminder of the vow she baa taken , 'and she Is to explain fully Just what the letters mean to any one who Is .curious enough'to ask. "Of course we don't expect any of the members of the alliance to be weak enough to ever fall In love with a man and marry him , but If such an unlikely event should happen the offender Is to strip off her badge of maiden bachelorhood , the club pin , and return It 'to the president , with a letter of apology , and giving some good reason ( It such a thing Is possible ) for the step ( be has taken.- ' 'This latter was a suggestion of my own , and I think It Is a grand Idea. How I will lecture the backsliders ! That Is , of course , if there are any , which I hardly expect , Judging from.tbo way the girls all talked to night. What a Jolly , Independent lot they nrel No clinging Ivy business in theirs , thank you ! Men are all well enough In their places running railroads , engineering' polit ical caucuses , etc. but when It comes to marrying one of them and being dependent on him for a home and a Jiving well , the 'D. M. T. A.s' respectfully beg to be excused ! "January 8 The pins came from the jeweler's today , and they are too sweet and r I 8UPPOSB HE HAS BUFFERED ENOUGH AND I REALLY OUGHT TO TAKE PITY ON HIM. " lovely for anything ! The monogram IB a dark blue'-enamel and there la a delicate pray of Jprget-me-nots twining gracefully around { f/making the pin a very tasteful and deilrab'le ornament. "W girl * ( the aU bachelor maid * . I mean ) are all proud of our pins , and com menced wearing them at once. Borne of ' the other glrU ilnce seeing the pin * are aorry they didn't join the club , too , but we bare decided to take In no more mem ber * for ( ear we might get some wemk- saladed one * wbo night be Iedt4-Jola for the * ' ak rot wearing one1 of the plni , and a * ke novelty wore-oK ( they for'tk * ' tBanej ; Uat-wbuia ' " henceforth and'"forever from each and every girl ; and when Maud Spencer wittily re marked that she 'had'no moro use for a man than a CAt had for two beads or nine tailsverybbd aplauded and said that was Just "the fway th'ey felt about It , too. "H would bav.e been a good thing If some of the conceited young men of the period could have been present , or at least had their cars glued to the keyhole , and listened to the remarks of the 'B M. T. A.s' on this occasion. Guess their ears would have tingled .and they would have gone away with their stock of conceit perceptibly lowered ! * * "The final toast for the evening , drank with our farewell cup of tea , wan the fol lowing eloquent and noble sentiment : 'The Bachelor Maids' Triple Alliance , the Gibraltar of single-blessedness and blessed ndependence may It never fall by assaults from without Vtreachery" from within ! ' "December 26 Only six brief months lave flown by since the members of the B. M. T. A ? parted with mutual pledges of constancy to the great cause of single ilesscdness , a fpHt grieves me to write it , iut write It I must already the enemy has Invaded our ranks and captured one of our most promising members. Maud Spen cer Is no moro ! Poor girl ! she has ex changed' ' her final cognomen for the plebeian name ot Smith or Is It Jones ? O , yes , here [ t is ; 'Maud Jones' Is the way she signs U to her letter , and the paltry excuse she ; lves for marrying the creature , Jones , Is that she loves him ! ! The Idea ! Just as if that was any justification for breaking her vows and deserting the standard of the B. M. T. A.'s ! Well , I am glad she had the grace to promptly notify mo In my capacity of president and- return the badge which she Is no longerv , > orthy to wear ! Won't I write Mrs. Jones a scathing letter tomor row when I get'nt It ! 'January 8 , 1W7. Bad news again and more of It ! Today came two letters ad dressed to . 'PJifjtl * roller , president of the Bachelor MalQs * Triple Alliance ' , one con taining thoannouncement of the marriage of Elth | Wilson and the other stating that Belle Richardson had met with the same fate. They each returned the club pins and said they were' very sorry and all that sort of thing , but they loved the men whoso names they had assumed and felt sure they were loved In return , and under tbo cir cumstances they felt It was their duty to give up the B. M. T. A. , etc. , etc. "Theso excuses are n trifle weak , but I presume It Ishe best the poor things could do ! Well , If they prefer love to liberty , all right , but I'fVel It Incumbent on me to write and tellMhem what I think of the step they have taken just the same. "It ia not only discouraging but shock ing yes , actually shocking to think that In one short year half of the members of the 'Bachelor Maids. ' Trlpje Alliance' have fallen by the wayside ! It Is now a triple alliance In reality , as well as In name , and long , long may It wave ! "I have vrrjtt n to the two remaining members of. yje club. tefluestlng them to stand firm against the sophistries and de lusions 6t men and matrimony , and I trust now there wlH be no further desertions from our ranks , , "February I'AJn spite of all I said to her.

"Lottlo Is a .decidedly Independent and level-headed young woman , and I feel that she at least will not betray the cause.

She , too , has gone the way of all the others , It seems and I am left with half a dozen 'B. M , T. A. ' stickpins and an empty title on my hands. Only thirteen fleeting months since the 'Bachelor Maids' Triple Alliance * was organized , and today the president alone Is left to carry on the good work , and some how I feel that from now on I am going to have a rather lonesome time of It ! "Tho postman just called with n batch of letters , and among them was a Valentino from Harold Draper. Wo used to be very good friends a year or so ago , but we had a love spat , and I sent htm adrift and thought that ended It. But I BCD Harold hasn't for gotten me , poor fellow ! I suppose be has suffered enough , and I really ought to take pity on him ! "Thcro Is no disgrace In giving up the ship when the crew have all deserted It ; and even If there were , I'vo got as good an excuse as the others to wit : 'Twas love that made me do It ! "But I'm glad I was the president of the 'Bachelor Maids , ' so I don't have to send back my club pin , nor do any explaining or apologizing , except to myself. I'd hate awfully to attempt to palm off that same old excuse on the ex-members of the 'B. M. T. A. ' after the mean letters I wrote them. " NO IIKAUI.VGS TO GET. If Any Mnn Ever ItenclicH the North I > ov He Will lie Lout. If any one really got to the pole , says the Nautical Magazine , he would. In common parlance , bo utterly "at sea , " simply because . cause at the pole there Is no possibility of ascertaining one's whereabouts. A person I arriving there would find an altogether dif ferent world before htm. Like a blind man he would grope about and vainly endeavor to get back whence he came. This by no means enviable situation is calculated to destroy the Illusions which he may have cherished when starting on his polar ex pedition. His completely changed situation would be accounted for by tha fact that when stationed nt the pole the direction ot the north would bo found to colncido with the Hue of the zenith that Is to say , the point exactly above us. The opposite point , * viz. , the nadir , would coincide with the direction to the south. The longitudinal circles , nn > l hence also the meridian ot the locality , would coincide with the horizon. Hence nn astronomical determination of the locality , according to latitude and lougitude , Is pre cluded. The same may bo said as regards deter mining one's bearings In any direction. Tbo compass , too , will fall there , because Its horizontal Intensity Is to ell bt as to pre clude the possibility of Its action. The only criterion for judging that one has arrived at the pole Is that the observed latitude of the sun , after having been cnrroctel to alti tude aobve the true horizon , is found to coincide with the value nt the declination of the sun for the day In luestlon. Moreover , In those regions there Is scarcely a day on which dense 'fogs do not prevail , and 60 or more degrees , JC. ) of cold'such as mostly exist there , " 'Wlttx enhance < thefl < iB ; cultlcs of observation tb such an extent that It can only be a question of approximate estimates. Such conditions are by no means enviable , and are scarcely calculated to In duce us to long for them with all our hearts. But these are not the only things , which are likely to make a sojourn at. the'pole a never-ending torment. xWorra iban all the rest , one cannot count the passing hours there ; In other words-there is no criterion for determining the time of day. During a period of six months the sun will neither rise nor set , but during the.whole of the time will either remain above or below the horizon. As the earth revolves around its axis In twenty-four hours' the sun appar ently describes , during the same Interval , a circuit of 360 degrees around ther sky. being visible at an altitude equal to the declina tion whenever declination Is , of. , the same name as the pole at wh'ichttie observer is stationed. The numerous attempts hitherto made to reach the pole have , as a matter ot course , been by water that Is to say.by ships and sledges. The Idea'that one mljht ge ( there by an aerial passage has'not "gained ground until recently , but it we consider that bal loons are not navigable , and hence are lia ble to be carried away by. air currents In any direction that may. , accidentally prevail , and In the most unlikely event only to the pole , no one possessed of butji moderate allowance of common sense , will comprehend how success could have been expected from such an enterprise. Moreover , determina tions of locality cannot possibly bo made from a balloon with any approximate degree of accuracy. THIS MAN IN THE TRUNK. A New War of Gcttltiir the Durnlnr Into the HOUMV. Two well' dressed men from Paris drove up to the best hotel In a country town In the Department of the Eure , relates a Paris cor respondent , and engaged a double bedded room. . They deposited" a very heavy trunk In a corner , and then went out to see the town , telling the landlady , a widow , that they would return nt night. But night cafno and the two men did not come back at tbo time specified. The landlady walte'd , much surprised , and kept her establishment open after the usual hour for closing. This was soon observed by the local gendarmes on duty , who entered the hotel and reminded the proprietress of the place that the cur few , or Its modern substitute , had tolled the knell of parting day , and that It" was full time to extinguish lights In all Inns and cafes. The widow said she was waiting for two men v > ho had left a big trunk behind them. This caused the gendarmes to reflect a little. One of them well versed in criminal nnnala suddenly remembered the Golirfo case. He also thought of the young stamp collec tor who was murdered In Paris a few years since , and whose body was thrust into a trunk. Anxious to secure , all the credit'o : a discovery which might lead to promotion and glory , the gendarme learned In criminal lore asked tbo widow to let him see the trunk , and told his companion to wait for him at the bar or buvctto of the hotel. The landlady accordingly led the man to the room , and he began to gauge the weight o the big box , when suddenly the lid flew up , and out jumped a wiry little man who brandished a big revolver In bis right hand The widow screamed'and the gendarme was temporarily thrown off his guard , but hi soon pulled himself together and grapple * with the person who had been acting jack In-thc-box. The other gendarme , hearing tbo landlady's shrieks and the ebuf ilng over bead , was soon on the scene of action am helped his colleague to manacle the myste rious person who had , jumped , out of the trunk and to take htm to the lockup. There the fellow refused to.glve bin ) name , or to say anything about hU eoqipauions , who are supposed to have returned to Paris , leavlni him to plunder the lifn when Its'Owner and her vervants were asleep.

In many homes ithere rest In obscure corners , "piano-end" rosewood-veneered mclodeons , made .about thirty years ago.

The wood Is the only thing you wlUtnced In the reconstruc tion. Remove the'f lyre. If you object to the small hinges .one top of the table , re move them. Have the two parts planed carefully and put together , glueing or screw ing small pieces of wood on the under side. The _ hinges are left on In the Illustrated piece. The dollies cover > thcm , and they are not In the way. By all means leave the Ivory knobs alone. The fall-board ( flguro 1) ) Is used for the drawer front. The well- kilned boards that support the bellows maybe bo utilized for the remainder of the drawer. Leave the lock as It Is. The drawer maybe bo one largo compartment , or subdivided Into several. The Illustration shows two divisions , one largo for linens , one small for teas. The solid brass handles were purchased at a brass factory for 30 cents each. Now take the keyboard , reverse It 'and place It on tbo back of the Instrument about two and one-half Inches from the edge. ( Figure 2. ) Some Instruments have above the keys a fretwork backed by colored cloth. Remove the cloth and place this above the Inverted .keyboard. ( Figure 3. ) Take the music rack , jobserve tho.pattern closely and decide how much Is suitable to place on top of the backer or a final finish. A carpenter will saw It s you desire. A little of the lower part of ho rack was used on this table. ( Figure 4. ) Below the keys on every Instrument Is long strip of rosewood , about three Inches Ide. Fasten this at the back of the In- crted keyboard as a support for the sau- ers. ( Figure 5. ) Remove the pins from he rosewood sockets In which the rack has layed , glue these at the ends of the largo penlng about one and a half Inches In rant of the saucer support. Get a small rasss rod , have It cut a trifle shorter than be space and slip It Into the sockets. This revents the1 saucers from sliding forward , crew twelve brass hooks Into the top board t equal distances. If the lyre Is of wood , tvide It so that each half will serve as a upport and finish to the back. ( Flguro 6. ) f It Is of Iron , divide the remainder of the music rack and use Instead.

This may brighten It sufficiently. Casters are nnecessary. The table is very light to nave , and is as high as comfort permits. The tea chair should .not bo low. A hand- ome piano stool Is not amiss.

The entrance doors are of atatuary bronte , leading to the vestibule , at the opening of which are two massive and richly wrought nnd chased bronco grilled work gates , executed by John William * . The vestibule.opens Into an exquisitely decorated and appointed chapel , the prin cipal feature In whfch Is an altar composed ot rare marble : and onyx , with a rcredos in which Is Inset a Madonna and Child In whlto marble. This work of art Is several centuries old nnd was procured In Italy by Mrs. Mackay. The Interior plan of construc tion of the chapel Is based upon the eight pointed cross of Malta , which symbolizes the eight beatitudes. This symbolism has been carried by Insetting In the chapel walls eight stained glass windows , portraying the beatitudes. These works of art wcro made In Munich by the most eminent artists In Europe. In color , beauty of drawing and artistic treatment they are examples of the highest obtainable treatment of art glass. The celling Is a dome with Venetian glass mosaics of several shades of gold , ending In the apex of the dome in a cardinal cross en twined with palm branches. Concealed In the mdrblo moulding surrounding the base of the dome are sixty Incandescent electric lamps , which , when connected with the cur rent , produce exquisite effects ot light and shade upon the gold , green and cardinal shades of the wide expanse of mosaics , sparkling like jewels. . Beneath the altar Is a crypt designed for two bodies , and In the north and south wings are crypts for twenty bodies. The crypts are of Tennessee marble , closed with a tablet of the same material , fitted with bronze screw sockets , Into which detachable handles may be Inserted for removing the tablets when Interments are made.

A Former Cittitnln rienrrnl of Cnhi Not Over Bcrnpnlonn. At the question ot Sljijrilah good faith Is prominent In the press ( hcsc days , relates the Argonaut , this pertinent anecdote ot Iho civil war will be tlraply. It Is told In Bullock's "Secret Service of the Confcdcr- ate States. " Captain Bullock tells of the exciting Incidents concerning the freeing ot the rebel ram Stonewall from the Inter national complications attendant on Its release from tbo French shipyard where It was built ; how It was watched by the agents of the federal government ; how It was followed to Denmark , whither It went under the Danish flag : how It was again followed to Fcrrol , Spain , by the United States ships Niagara and Sacramento ; how It eluded them there and sailed for the coast ot the United States with the evi dent Intent of attacking the federal chips , for any one of which It was more than a match , being then the most formidable Ironclad afloat. But when the Stonewall , under command of Captain Page , reached Havana In May , 1865 , Page learned of the surrender of Ocn- eral Lee and soon after of the capture of Jefferson Davis. Page's fumlB worn ex hausted. The confcdcVacy had dollapscd. The position was perplexing. Captain Page opened negotiations with' the Spanish au- n ' thorltles at Havana for the surrender the ship If they would advance the monte to pay oft the crew. Cnptaln Page * Lieutenant Carter to the captain general Jll to make the arrangements. Carter reported that after five minutes' conversation tfie captain general asked him what sum was required. Carter replied , $ " 16,000. " Tha captain general Bald , "You had better make ) t It $100,000. " Carter replied that his orders ) > wcro to ask $16.000. The captain general then turned to nn official and bade him write a document and then , turning again to Carter , said : "Shall wo not make it $50,000 ! " But Carter obeyed orders and accepted only $16,000. _ It Is qulto evident that this high offU clal , the captain general of Cuba , was at tempting to get the confederate naval offi cer to ask for $100.000 to pay oft his crew , when ho needed only $16,000. the difference to bo divided between them. Whqn- the confederate officer obstinately rcfupciK'to accept cither $100,000 or $50,000. but /only / , the exact sum needed , It Is evident that the captain general concluded'tha , , the American was a fool nnd charged UK $100- 000 to the Spanish government nnd put $84,000 In his pocket. This throws a strong light on Spanish financial honor. Macs of Cuba at The Bee office Omaha- * Council Bluffs or South Omnha. Cut a coupon from page 2.
