THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY; SEPTEMBEIl 10. I87C. W H W - YORK I3LI3. From Our Own Corrtupnndrnt. Wew York, Sept. 10, 1370. Wc all know that Thm Plaa Wh Lay Til TTnod Upon Wemri rt, eare in the way of kindness (or Ears when she richly deserres it, as the other side of the ques tion has It), U a villain, whom it were base flat tery to call by all manner of disparaging names. If this be so, what shall be said of the male biped so lost to a sense of manhood as to attend the meetings of the Saleswomen's Earl.v-Closing Association ia order to act ns a spy upon its proceedings, and to hand in a report thereof to the various employers of the girls and women who attend ? He is a sice young man, ain't he ? Quite as l ad in his way, I should think, as a professional wife-beater is in his. Such a young man, however, was found at last night's meet ing of the 8. E. C. A., and was promptly and emphatically expelled. Ilis name is Kane, and he was a member of the Male Clerks' E. G. A. For some time past he has been attend ing the meetings of the Association as a spy, and had, by his system of reporting the pro ceedings, rendered nugatory some of the best conceived and best-directed efforts of Miss Is'etta and other leaders of the early-closing movement. The meeting, by-the-by, celebrated lust night successes other than that of the ex pulsion of the spy. Miss Nctta reported that a good many firms were "coming over" and making concessions. Some expressed a willing ness to close at nine o'clock, some at seven; eome allowed their employes to read the news papers, and to rest on the counter-drawers when not actually employed in business; and It Is hoped that in time the majority of the firms which employ women will consent to not only close habitually at seven o'clock (Saturdays ex cepted), but also to provide scats for the droop i g saleswomen. Olee-Cliromo Decorations. I Qt'ht to mention a new style of house decoration, the mode of which Is on exhibition at the American Institute Fair. It is called the Oleo-Chromo decoration, and is at once simple, cheap, and beautiful, although it would proba bly be frowned upon by those admirers of high art who never like to see it so lowered as to come within reach of the people. This new clecoratiou is applicable to walls, floors, and ceilings, and has the very peculiar advantage of being both oil-proof and water-proof. By means of it you can fresco a room in a few hours, and cause all its six sides, if you wish, to glow with the colors.of the rainbow and all the innumerable shades and tints born out of them. The colors dry very soon, and do not leave an unpleasant odor. The material comes in rolls which, when it is desired to use them, are glued to the wall or the ceiling, which ever it may be that you desire to operate upon. The rolls are covered with thin paper, and when the gluing process is com pleted this thin paper is dampened and peeled off. The rolls remain fastened to the parts upon which they have been glued, and retain the hues and patterns you desired to give them. After this you may wash and scrub the rolls as much as your natural disposition to wash and ecrub may lead you too. Your color and pat tern remain fixed, and the fresco promises to retain its freshness for a lifetime. I don't say that the Ireseo is as fine as that which Garibaldi, the artist, executes for Booth's theatre, but it is quite good enough for people who have nover been accustomed to anything better. Farragut'a Funeral. Mayor Oakey Hall has done an act which Epenka well for his common sense. The act consists in his having reminded the municipal legislature of the propriety and expediency of its taking some public action with respect to Parragut's funeral. The first luneral of the late Admiral was the occasion for a public neglect which is disgraceful to the public officers who are responsible for it. I am glad to see, there lore, that yesterday afternoon the Grand Com mandery of the Loyal Legion of New York met at Delmonico's , and made preparations for suit ably honoring bis remains when they should pass through this city to Woodlawn Cemetery. The secretary Informed the Commandery that from Admiral Farragut's widow had been re ceived a letter, in which she accepted the offer made Wy the civil authorities of this city super intending the funeral ceremonies. It was finally agreed by the Commandery that it should co operate and parade in full uniform. KIte-oiis Overmuch. The ritualists yesterday enjoyed an oppor tunity of carrying to the extreme their love of rites, ceremonies, and erenuflexions. The ser vices at the oratory of St. Sacrament Mission, on the second floor of No. 1285 Broadway, were participated in by some of the severest and most enthusiastic devotees of the ritualistic school. The High Church clergy were present in large numbers; the Sisters of St. Mary, headed by Mother Harriet, and conspicuous in white veils and white coifs, also Ehared in the exercises; crimson chasubles, white surplices, red capes, and varl-colored satins, gave to the scene picturesque contrasts of color, and there was an abundance of sweet einging and heavy breathing flowers. I will not say that the reli gion was hothouse as the exotics. But it could Bcarcely be called the religion of nature; per 1 aps it will do to call it the religion of the fine arts. The Nllmton Torchlights. When Jenny Lind was in this country Mr. Barnuiu took especial care to humbug her as much as he humbugged the public. She proba bly believed lhat the triumphal arches that she found erected upon the wharf and awaiting her arrival were the spontaneous floral architecture of the people. It never entered into her inno cent head that the whole thing was a business dodge, at the bottom of which was her manager himself. The vanity of the over-flattered arti6t prevented any suspicion of the trutti. I will sot swear and I cannot demonstrate that the Eame thing is done with Miss Nilsson by Mr. Strakosch. I am not in the confidence of the manager, and I am not prepared to prove that the torchlight procession of last night was not a spontaneous tribute. Such knowledge as I have of theatrical agents, however, Induces me to believe that the "spontaneous tribute" was a carefully conceived and successfully realized artifice. Miss Nilsson's managers are deter mined to make her a business success, and have sot spared money in accomplishing their object. There is no humbug about kerthat I am pre pared to believe. Tne tears that she shed when the Swedish Society sang her national airs were genuine and her emotion was unaffected. But the torchlight procession itself! Who that knows anything whatever of the ins and outs of theatrical humbug can possibly believe In the spontaneity of the thing ? It is possible, you Will say. Bah! It is possible for the sky to rain roasted skylarks, but showers do not often take that form. The procession was a success, and so was the assembly at Dr. Doremus'; but one was no more spontaneous than the other was, although I do not wish to view the matter with any unnecessary cyulcUtfl.

Why 1 suffer with Griping Pains caused by drinking Ice water, when by having your water filtered and cooled as nature filters and cools the pure Spring water, you may avoid these ills? The Schuylkill water is rendered Impure by the numerous factories, coal oil refineries, sinks, slaugh ter houses, dye works, etc. etc., which cluster on its banks. By forcing this impure water through BCIIARFF & WOOD'S PATJENT FILTER AND COOLEB It Is rendered as pure as the waters that run from the mountain rills.
