KESIDEXCE OF MRS.
Some of the iromen of the Trinity Church
Altar Society, who have great regard for
old-time customs, hare arranged to precede
Sunday, March 27 Mothering Sunday by
a mid-Lent tea, observing at it all the pecu
liar characteristics of the Feast or Fast Day
following.
Mothering Sunday, as all good' church
people, especially those acquainted with
the fashions of Old England, know, was the
day when all servants and children absent
from home were allowed to visit their rela
tives, carrying to them usually a present of
cake; this remembrance was called "Sim
neh" The mid-Lent tea will be held at Miss
Lillie "Walter's house, 181 "Western avenue,
from 3 to 6 o'clock. There will be a sale of
cake the Simnel of past times. An ad
mission will be charged, the compensation
far which will be a cup of tea or chocolate
and a sandwich or cakes, and at the same
time permission to buy Tery delicious home
made cakes, which in commercial phrase
ology, will be "bargains indeed."
The engagement is announced of Miss
Harriet "Welden Coyle, sister of Seed B.
Coyle, Esq., and Dr. Albert Ccngdon Speer.
Both young people are residents of Oak
land. Since in this season there must always be
a fine reason for doing anything that has the
slightest social flavor about it,the Princeton
alumni dinner naturally is accepted as a
most delightful excuse. The preparations
for this dinner are nearly completed, and no
doubt next Thursday evening will find the
Duquesne Club the setting for a scene of
much enjoyment. The list of speakers com
pleted up to the present time includes Dr.
W. M. Sloane, Mr. John H. Bicketson,
President Pittsburg Harvard Clcb, Mr.
George B. "Wallace, Dr. "W. J. Holland,
Chancellor "Western "University, and Prof.
"W. B. Scott
The present officers of the association are:
Mr. "William Scott, '68, President; Hon. J.
Calvin Eayburn, 72, Mr. A "W. "Wilson,
83, the Bev. C. M. Des Islets, '68, Mr.
John B. Keenan, '80, Vice Presidents; Ex

Perhaps aiter searching long and dili
gently one may see a silver lining to the
black cloud overwhelming one who loses
his house by fire. At least this has been
the experience of the two ladies whom a
blaze in Sewickley deprived of housd and
home last week. Miss Macrum says it is
almost worth having a fire to discover one's
friends. A cheaper way might be recom
mended, but still if friends are raised out of
a fire that must be, then it is a great com
pensation. The problem then to solve is:
Whether it is better to have a honse and
friends incognito, or burn a home and have
friends en evidence?
Some ofthe people who went out to Cali
fornia in the Press Club trip met at the
Duquesne Hotel at dinner the other even
ing. It is said that each man's toast was
one of personal eulogy ot himself and con
gratulation ol the little party on the poses
sion of the particular concomitant atom
represented in himself. These unassuming
men naturally spent a really enjoyable re
union, iu view ofthe individual realization
of each man of the pleasure his company
was conferring upon his neighbors. "We
have heard of young ladies who got married
tor the sols "end and aim of the anni
versaries that followed.
From a certain point of view, at. least
that of comfort to the stomach, the most
important happening of the week, socially,
morally and intellectually, is the gossip
about an English chophouse to be estab
lished in Pittsburg for the sole purpose f
furnishing meals for people whose appe
tites keep all-night hours. It is true that a
large part of our population retires to a
seasonable bed. Nevertheless, in justice to
the pSwerful minority, it is only fair to add
that there are some extremely reputable
people who wander about in the streets of
Pittsburg alter midnight "seeking whom
they msy devour." There are all sorts of
inducements held oot -for the encourage
ment of good habits nowadays. "Whether
late hours is a good habit is, of course, a
matter of individual opinion, but as bad
treatment in the matter of iooil has had no
reclaiming effects, pcrliaps a few good sup
pers or so would be more successful.

EDUCATING THE YOUNG.
"Effort to Organize a Citizens' "League to
Send Children to School A Big Institute
New Buildings Honoring Wicker
sham' Memory Schoolroom Gossip.
Mrs. H. E. Monroe, former President of a
Kansas female college, and now one of the
officers of the Citizens' League of New
Jersey, was in the city yesterday and held a
consultation with Prof. H. W. Fisher, of tho
Executive Committee of the State Teachers'
Association, regarding the establishing of a
Citizens' Leazue in Pennsylvania, She
wants the matter brought up at the coming
meeting of the association to be held at
Beaver Falls in July, and this will be done.
The League, as established in New Jersey,
and which it is proposed to establish in
Pennsylvania, is conducted on the following
plan: The object of the league is to develop
citizens. Its members band together to see
that all children in the State go to school at
least four months in the year. Children who
are attending school are asked by the
teachers how many and who of the
children 'living near them do not
come to school. The teachers as
committees investigate, and of courso in a
malorlty of cases find that it is the lack of
money to obtain clothes, etc, or else the
earnings of the child are either needful to
the parents or sufficiently large to keep him
from school. The league after investigation
says to the parent: "Let your child attend
soiiool for four months and we will give him
clothes so that he can go to school and we
will also see that you get sufficient provi
sions that will repay you for the amount
that you would lose while vour child attends
school for lour months." The teachers then
suggest to the pupils that each bring some
sort of a contribution which may he of
money, of edibles, or of clothing. These
contributions are then devoted to the
families of the children given a chance to
go to school.
As" an instance of the success of the scheme
it may be said that in Atlantic City there
are now only two children .of available
school age who do not attend school, and
they are cripples; whereas, before the estab
lishment of the League there were about 200
children who, did not attend school. That
other States outside of New Jersey look
upon the plan with favor can be seen from
the fact that Prof. Deremer, head of tho
league of that State, has been offered $5 000 a
year by Brooklyn to go there to establish
and take charge of a Citizens' League. Mrs.
Monroe is on her way to Washington to con
sult the Commissioner of Education to con
sider making the league plan national.
Honoring an Educator's Memory.
March 25, next Friday, has been fixed by
the Wickersham Memorial Commute ap
pointed by the State Teachers' Association
as the date on which to reverence the
memory of the man who did so much to
establish and strengthen Pennsyl
vania's great Bchool system Mr.
Wickersham. The exercises will be
general throughout the State and
will partly consist of biographical sketch of
this educator, who gave his services as
teacher, county' superintendent, founder of
the State Normal School system, principal of,
the first normal school at Mlllorsvllle, Lan
caster county, and his 15 years' service as
Superintendent of Public Instruction. He
was the author of two books on pedagogics
that have been translated Into the French,
Spanisli and Japanese languages. In con
nection with these sketohes the exercises
will be interspersed with gems from his
writings, by the children, and music.
The committee also decided that the
memorial should take the form of a library
In the Capitol ac Harrisburg. The plans to
establish the library will be submitted to

Housekeepers are finding out that many baking
powders contain ammonia ; perhaps they have tested
them; possibly they have caught the pungent an4
suggestive fumes from a' " fresh " can of ammoniated
powder. No wonder the manufacturers are afraid to
let the people know wnat such powders are made of.
There is no '"patent medicine" mystery about
Cleveland's Baking Pfiwder. It is not bnly free from
ammonia and all adulterants, but the composition
is plainly stated onevfery can. The materials are the
best Science can produce, 'and a trial convinces any
