l'aterson, X. .T.. Nov. 2'J. —Vice Presi
dent llobart died at 8:'M) a. m. Tues
day. Tlie family and physicians were
at Mr. Ilobart's bedside when he ex
pired. The vice president had been
tailing since late Monday afternoon,
although the reports given out at the
house were that he was 1101111115 his
own.
Soon after midnight he became un
conscious and remained in that con
dition until his death. ISefore Mr.
Hobart became unconscious he was
able to converse with Mrs. llobart
about some private affairs. He. was
very patient ana showed his remark
able will power up to the last.
- '
VICE PRESIDENT GARRET A. HO-
H.MtT.
Mr. llobart was born in Monmouth
county, X. ,J., June 2, 1844. lie en
tered Uutgers college in ISGO and
graduated iu 1803. Thereafter he
taught school until he entered the law
oflice of Socrates Tut tie, of l'aterson,
N. J. He was admitted to the bar.in
1809 and began the practice of law
with Mr. Tlittle. He became the clerk
ol the grand .jury in ISO.") and was ap
pointed city counsel of l'aterson in
IsTl. lb- was elected counsel for the
board of chosen freeholders in 1572
and was elected to the legislature in
187'!. jle was re-elected to the as
sembly in lsTl and was made speaker
in 1870. lie entered the senate of
New Jersey in 157'.1 and in 1881 waa
elected speaker of that body. In 1870
New Jersey sent him as a delegate-at
large to the national republican con
vention and again in 1880 the same
honor was bestowed upon hirn. lie
was elected a member of tne national
republican committee in 1884 and
served continuously upon that body
until 1890, when he was nominated
for the vice presidency of the Unit !tl
States.
Isy the death of Mr. Hobart Senator
William I'. Frye, of Maine, becomes
president pro tem of the senate aim
will discharge all the duties of the vice
president as presiding otlieer of that
body. The senate rules provide that
no election is necessary at the begin
ning of the session. Senator Frye ac
cordingly will continue as presiding
oflicer till the end ot' President McKin
ley's administration, unless he chooses
to resign, or the senate wishes to elect
another senator to the office.
A curious coincidence of the death
of Vice President Hobart is found in
the fact that of the six vice presidents
who have died in office four died
within a few days of the same day of
the month, the death of Mr. Hobart
being the 21st of November, 1899; that
of Mr. Wilson the 22(1 of November,
1875; that of Klbridge (Jerry, Novem
ber 23, INI4, and that of Mr. Hendricks
November 25, 1885. The other two
vice presidents who died in office were
Clinton and King. The former died
April 20, 1812. and the latter April 17,
1853.
Hy law the succession to the presi
dency of the I'nited States in the event
of vacancy falls upon the vice presi
dent, and in the event of the hitter's
death, to the secretary of state, the
next in line being the secretary of the
treasury, then the secretary of war,
and down through the list of cabinet
officers in order of precedent fixed by
act of congress when the death of Vice
President Hendricks disclosed the
necessity of such a provision.
New York, Nov. 23.—The funeral of
the late Garret A. llobart will take
place 011 Saturday. The morning
services at the residence will be at
tended by only the members of Mr.
Ilobart's family, President McKinlcy
and his cabinet and Mr. Ilobart's most
intimate friends. At the Church of tho
Redeemer in l'aterson the public serv
ice will be held at 2:30 p. m. The
body will not lie instate in the citv
hall, a.s was desired by the city au
thorities, "nil on Friday afternoon the
casket will be opened in the library
of his home and for three hours the
public may view the face 01 the lato
vice president.

HANDY PRUNING KNIFE.
I'lMiit-cially A«laiitc<l for Cutting; Out
the Old Wood u( Slrnivlierrynud
itasiilicrrj t'lantx.
Anyone having tried to cut out the
old wood of raspberries and blackber
ries without a proper tool knows that
the job is anything but a pleasant one.
Various-shaped knives are in use.
I have seen more hook-shaped and V
shaped knives than any other kind.
But such knives cut hard. The force
necessary to cut an old woody cane
is sometimes quite enough to pull up
it whole raspberry plant. To make cut
ting easy one should draw the knife
across the object to be cut. A slice of
beefsteak may be shaved off much
easier by a drawing cut than by pres
sure squarely ag'ainst it with the knife,
however sharp it may be. If the same
principle could be applied to the old
wood of our berry plantations some
thing would be pained.
I have lately eomc across a knife that
works well. 1 have tested it, and find
%o• \ SHAPE

it superior to anything else 1 have seen.
Looking at the accompanying illustra
tion one might suppose a knife of such
shape would slip off instead of cutting.
Hut that is not so. In testing it one
will be surprised how nicely it will do
the cutting, it will slip just enough
to give the drawing motion, and thus
it will sever the hard cane from the
stub with the least outlay of strength.
The illustration represents the shape
of the knife exactly as it should be. A
good blacksmith should be able to make
one out of a worn-out flat file. It
should be inserted in an old hoe-handle,
or something of that order, and be
keyed on as shown. A leather loop
may be nailed to the wooden handle
about half-way up to prevent the hand
from slipping 011 the handle, but this
is r.ot, essentia).
Gathering up the old wood and the
trimmings is another unpleasant fea
ture of berry culture. Here, also, the
right tool will facilitate the work. The
best thing 1 know of is a rake made out
of a worn-out wheelrake, such as en
cumber many a farm. An enterprising
farmer's boy of mechanical turn
be able to construct one without much
trouble, it should be made narrow
enough to work easily between the
rows, and the two straight handles
should be bolted on and left sticking
out behind to guide and lift the tool by.
A ten-acre field may be gone over with
such a rake in one day, leaving all the
brush at the ends of the rows. It is
pretty hard work to run the tool.—F.
Greiner, in Farm and Fireside.
BACTERIA AND FLAVOR.
I'Ncfiil find Praot ictil Information
in the I , ohs4 i ssl on of
I>ui r> liifii by Science.
Probably in 110 department of re
search is a greater amount of investi
gation going forward and valuable data
and actual discovery being made than
in dairy science; and while some ol
the discoveries have been of little or
lio value, a wonderful amount of use
ful and practical material has been
placed in the hands of the dairymen,
says Mark Lane Express. Among the
new things announced, since it has
been shown how nearly ferments and
flavors in butter are associated, is that
if certain acids are added to sweet
cream it is not mvessary to wait for
the development of lactic acid bacteria
in the cream, but that it could be
churned at once, and churned quite
readily, and the true flavor secured,
investigators have been at work on
this problem, and an announcement of
the results has been made. The most
satisfactory result fame from using
hydrochloric acid diluted in twice its
bulk of water, and adding this in small
quantities to the sweet cream. Every
thing was satisfactory, except that the
butter had no aroma, though it was
pronounced fair and good by the
judges. The butter kept well, and had
a water content of 12% percent.; but
the low flavor was against it, though
not a trace of acid was to be detected,
or found by analysis. About the most
important thing brought out was that
butter seems to bt* fully dependent
upon bacteria for true flavor, rather
than the food, pro»ided that the latter
is wholesome and not of a character
to impart obnoxious flavors to the
milk, which after all could not be
called butter flavor in any sense of the
word.
The cow that is kindly treated and
quietly handled gains what is known
in human society a.s an "elegant repose
of manner" that, in her, tends to agood
flow of wholesome milk.

ance of the package and fruit the quick

THE ICE MACHINE'S PART.
At Lant There Has Horn a New Fell
tare In trod ueed Into I'ncle
Tom's Cabin.
There is a now wrinkle in "Uncle Tom's
Cabin" theatrical companies. One of thein,
which is ransacking the state of New Jer
sey for audiences, has hit upon the device of
buying a refrigerating machine and using
real blocks of ice in the scene in which Eliza,
pursued by a pack of barking mongrels,
crosses the river carrying in her arms a
stuffed doll.
The icemaking machine has proved an
enormous success. At the Ridgewood opera
house, where the ice machine played a few
evenings ago, a frantic crowd fought its way
through the doors. At the first perform
ances the ice machine was kept in the back
ground. Several cakes were manufactured
before the performance and placed on the
green baize river. They were carefully sand
ed on the surface, so that when Eliza made
her grand dash for liberty she would not
turn undignified somersaults. The ice ma
chine, however, had been so largely adver
tised that yokels wanted to see it. They
sat in their places after the curtain de
scended upon the solemn death of Little
Kva anil howled for the ice machine to come
aut and show itself. The stage manager
and a couple of deck hands had to carry it
down to the footlights. Then they turned
the handle and, amid uproarous applause,
the machine produced a cake of real ice.
Since then a part has been written in the
play for the ice machine. When the river
scene opens a couple of southern speculators
are discovered experimenting with the
machine. They produce their ice, and not
iiaving any immediate use for it turn it into
the river, and it sits upon the river surface
it proper intervals to accommodate Eliza's
footsteps. A colored man conies out and
sprinkles sand over the ice in full view of
:lie audience. —Chicago Chronicle.
DRAMATIC CRITICISM.
"Eaut I.ynne" an Reviewed by ■
Wild and Woolly Toyota
Reporter.
The reports from those who attended the
production of "East Lynne" in all its gor
' geous misconception the other night unite
in pronouncing it a little the worst show
! that has ever cracked 14 square yards of
1 plastering off the ceiling of tne opera house
in this city. Lady Isabel was about as be
witching as a sun-kissed maiden of Sene
gambia, and a man who would fall in love
with her would fall into a coal pit through
a two-inch guard rail. When she returned
from the mountains of Germany as Miss
Vane to play the nursery maid to her son
she looked as though she had played hookey
from a smallpox graveyard. The special
scenery where she met Sir Francis Levison
and made a post-mortem contract to run
away with him looked like a cross between
the malaria-smeared hills of Arkansas and a
diseased vermiform appendix.
Air. Carlyle had a voice which had to be
raised with a derrick in order for the people
in the back part of the audience to hear it,
and then when it was at its highest pitch the
tackle would break or some one would knock
the blocking from under it and it would fall
like the price of steers during a democratic
administration. Barbara Hare looked as
though she had been left over from a bargain
sale and didn't care much whether her insur
ance ran out or not. Aunt Cornelia had a
voice that sounded like a cross between an
army mule with a ringworm and a cross-cut
saw, and was built a good deal like an Okla
homa cyclone on stilts. The only good thing
about the entire show that a good deal ot
it was left out and it could have been im

Mrs. Ada Brown Talbot, of New York, ed

extraordinary club she ever ran across is
conducted by a demure and dignified little
woman of seven, the daughter of a club

"At last I've got a chair," she sairl.
"I am very glad," my dear," said the ed

"Oh, it is not for me; it is for my club."
"I didn't know you had a club."
"Of course I have—just like mamma. My

her. You see," she explained, in a whis

that makes the most noise is president,

is a somewhat hackneyed term as applied to
railroad trains, but it accurately describe*
the Alton Limited, the newiy equipped day
trains of the Chicago & Alton K R. Co.
which were placed in daily service between
Chicago and St. Louis, November 16, 1809.
The equipment consists of standard Chicago
& Alton passenger locomotive; United
States postal car, sixty six feet in length;
combination passenger and baggage car,
combination parlor chair car and coach, Chi
cago Si Alton parlor chair car; cafe and buf
fet smoking car and Pullman parlor observa
tion car, each of which is seventy-two feet
j six inches in length. The framing of all
| these cars is Pullman standard with Kmpire
; decks, wide vestibules, standard steel plat
forms and anti-telescoping device. All of
j the cars are lighted with electric lights ex
eept the mail car and combination passenger
coach and baggage car, which are lighted
with Pintseh gas. The windows throughout
the entire train are of uniform width, the
Gothic lights above being of the new Pull
man standard. The ornamentation is of spe
cial design, the color scheme being maroon.
Great care has been used in the selection of
plushes and woods for the interior, and the
lamps, metal furnishings, etc., are of special
design, it is claimed that there has never
been built in America a train which has re
ceived as much attention as to constructive
details as has The Alton Limited. An ex

[LETTEB TO UKS. FINKHAU NO. 64,493]
" DEAR MRS. PINKIIAM —I think it is
my duty to write to you expressing
my sincere gratitude for the wonder
ful relief I have experienced by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound. 1 tried different doctors, also
different kinds of medicine. I would
feel better at times, then would be
as bad as ever.
" For eight years I was a great suf
ferer. I had falling of the womb and
was in such misery at my monthly
periods I could not work but a little
before I would have to lie down. Your
medicine has made a new woman of me.
I can now work all day and not get
tired. I thank you for what you have
done for me. I shall always praise
your medicine to all suffering women."
— MRS. E. E. KUHN, GERMANO, OHIO.
I have taken eight bottles of Lydii-
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and used two packages of your Sana
tive Wash, also some of the Liver Pills,,
and I can say that your remedies will
do all that * \ claim for them. Before
taking 1 • .• remedies I was very bad
with -lib trouble, was nervous, had
no ambition, could not sleep, and my
food seemed to do me no good. Now I
am well, and 3'our medicine has cured
me. I will gladly recommend your med
icine to every one wherever I go."—
