'A grim argument in faTor of letting

Cairo, with about 700,000 Inhabit

and the pharmacies, being all crowded
Into the Huropeuu and semi-European
quarters, are sufficiently numerous for
the amount of business.

ford W. llartrldge's suit against Mrs.
Mary C. Thaw to recover .$!M,0X) bal
nco of counsel fees.
Thaw gave ready answers to most
of the questions put to him, but they
were often unduly prolonged nnd
vague. Ho said ho retained Hartrldge
us counsel bocanso he was a friend.
Up to December, 1000, ho had paid
Hartrldge $75,100 and then thought It
was time to give over tho charge of
expenditures to John B, Glcason. He

had been spending his nnd his mother's
money to prevent women of the Ten
derloin from spreading stories hurtful
to the Thnw Interests, nor did Hart

New York. April 12. Johnny Coil
Ion of Chicago, bantamweight cham
pion of the world, fought a ten rouud
draw nt the Mnrathon Athletic club In
Brooklyn with young O'Leary of New
York. The fight was fast and well
fought. In weight the boys wore even,
although the Chicago fighter looked to
be five to ten pounds heavier than the
locnl boy.
Coulon led off with a terrific swing
to the jaw, which shook up O'Leary
who glided Into a clinch to avoid more
punishment. O'Leary then woke up,
and jnbs to the face made It very In
teresting for Coulon.
In the fifth round Coulon's left eye
began lo puff out from the constant
jabbing lie had received. Coulon's Hp
was opened up In the next rouud with
a left swing. Coulon, who had up to
this round given most of his attention
to the body, now turned to battering
up O'Lenry's face.
O'liOnry received many swift blows
In the next two rounds, but they did
not seem to have any effect on him, ns
he finished strong.

ported to the coroner for Investigation
and should the child die prosecution
would follow.

Prohibition Majority.
Lincoln, Neb., April 12. After tho
hottest election light ever known in
this city Lincoln voted dry by 1,000
majority. Lost year the city went dry

Tho dry victory is due in a lurge

CARE OF THE llWZl CASI
How to Clean and L'llitcn Reel kinl
ArtificUl Ctcn:j.
Prepared chnlk Is the host nil round
cleanser for Jewelry of nil descrlpn. nt.
A small box of the el. .ilk Ik, iis ii mut
ter of fact, us Import;". I in the tin ss
lng case as a clean i li.uuols lent nor.
with which silver butt-ns nid lm . o :
can be brightened. An excellent h.e.h
od of combining the two U Hint o.' i ,
closing the block of chalk in u leather
bag drawn around the neck with a
tape, which can be used both to keep
it intact nnd to net ns n polisher.
Pur gold chains there is nothing to
equal a paste made of chnlk nnd mcthy
Inted spirit, while n fine brush must
bo used after the paste has dried on
so ns to clear it of powder and give a
brilliant polish. Benzine Is sometimes
employed by Jewelers In cleaning pre
cious stones. It should not, of course,
be allowed to touch pearls or even tur
quoises, moonstones or opals, nil of
which require tho greatest care In their
treatment nnd nre the first to show
signs of neglect.
In the case of diamonds, sapphires,
rubles and emeralds the benzine treat
ment may be tried, however, provided
great care is observed, as benzine
fumes are very inflammable.
Tlie rings, If let Into clnw settings
nnd other small Items, should be col
lected nnd laid to soak In a little .ben
zine, nfter which the Jewels should be
washed lu ordinary soap and water,
rinsed lu cold water and dually placed
on a cloth lo drain. Experts further
dip the jewels in alcohol, so as lo evap
orate the remaining water, damp of
any description being certain to dull
the surface of tho newly cleaned stone.
To keep jewelry in sawdust Is the
very best method of obvinting the con
stant cleaning which would otherwise
be necessary, and it is an excellent
plan to keep a small bag made of
chamois leather In the dressing ease,
filling this with sawdust and using It
to hold all brooches, earrings nnd rings
which are not actually in daily use.
It Is not, however, only real jewels
which put n tux on time and patience
when away from home. Tho many sec
ondary gems which arc used for buc
kles, earrings nnd chains, ns well nfc
the hatpins, which seem to got more
nnd more ornate every day, require
even greater attention. Old paste is
best cleaned with dry prepared elmlk.
The same treatment ngrees also with
such stones as peridots or marqlllsatt1.
It is never, advisable to allow imitation
stones to become wet, while a damp
paste, moreover, which In some cases
would do no harm to the gem itself,
might loosen tho setting.
CLEANING OF FURS.
How It Can Be Done by the Use of
Simple Remedies.
Ermine nnd miniver are best clean
ed with soft flannel. Rub the fur well
against the grain, then dip the flannel
Into common flour and rub the fur un
til clean; shake the fur and again rub
it with a fresh piece of soft, clean, new
flannel till the flour is out. By this
process the color of the ermine is pre
served, nnd the lining need not bo re
moved. Sable, chinchilla, squirrel, etc..
ire cleaned with new bran, which
must bo warmed very carefully in a
pan. but not burnt; therefore while
waiting stir it frequently. Hub the
warm bran Into the fur for some time.
shake it and brush until free from
bran. The fur will clean better If the
stulllng and lining arc removed nnd
the article laid ns straight and lint ns
possible ou a table or board.
Well brush the fur before it is clean
ed, nnd if there arc any moth eaten
parts they must bo removed and re
placed with new pieces. The follow
ing method Is said to be adopted lu
Kussln: Some rye flour Is put into n
pan upon the stove and heated, being
stirred constantly with the hand as
long as tho beat can bo borne. Then
the flour is spread all over the fur and
rubbed in well. It Is then brushed
gently with a very elenn brush or beat
en softly till all the Hour is removed.
It Is claimed that this method will
make tlie fur appear almost new.
How to Keep Kingers Smooth.
Tho bane of the average sewer or
embroiderer is tlie roughened first fin
ger. This Is particularly trying when
one Is using embroidery silks which
catch and roughen easily. To keep tho
hands lu good condition wash them
carefully before beginning work nnd
rub off all roughness with a lino
pumice stone. Then wash off with u
little ncetlc ncld, which can bo bought
at any drug store. If this is not at
hand a good cider vinegar answers the
same purpose nud makes tho skin soft
nnd smooth.
How to Wash Ruchings.
Put tho ruchlug in a wldo mouthed
bottlo or Jur and cover with gasoline.
Cover nnd let it set about two hours.
Shako thoroughly nnd pour off tho gas
oline, rubbing a llttlo between the
hands if necessary. If a little stiff
ness is desired, rinse In clear water to
which a spoonful of sugar has been
added and dry without wringing.
How to Clean Net.
To clean delicate net yokes and
waists make a thick paste of flour and
gasoline. Use the paste with a small
stiff brush and rub well. Leave a
thick coating of the paste on to dry.
When tho gasoline has evaporated the
flour will brush out, leaving tho net
clean and white.
How to Can Corn.
To eight pints of corn cut from the
cob put ono pint of salt. Cover with
water, heat thoroughly nnd can with
water to cover corn. Put sugar to It
before It goes to the table, as It im
proves it
WOMAN
Mourning Millinery.
Women who wear bln l; have not
been neglected by tlie arbiters of fash
ion. Although good taste insists upon
n conservative im of depuration, there
lire attractive lines nnd styles In the
new lints,
The close turban of very rough straw
is swathed with dull silk and has n
simple bow nt tho side, frequently n
frilling of blnck net softens the line
against the hnlr.
A larger hat may be turned up at the
side nnd a huge soft bow held there.
The front of nnother chip is curled up
on tho low crown, simply caught by n
plaited double fan of silk.
Dull blnck dahlias nnd silk flowers
nre used in simple wreaths nround the
crowns, while stiff quills for the tailor
ed hat have come back for their share.
Of course the best mourning hnt is
the ono in which n refined simplicity
is the keynote. Unobtrusive and ele
gant should be millinery of this type,
nnd nothing should bo more vehement
ly decried than the hideous bunch of
Jet nnd glass that Is an offense In its
failure to suggest the shrinking from
notice, which, nfter all, is tho message
of black nt this time.

Besides the rough dlugonnls in

Baby's Summer Hat.
Lingerie hats for tho little tots have
taken on ucw charms, and tho num
ber of changes rung upon the theme of
u full crown and frilled or corded
brim Is really amazing. The hats of
plquo or linen with straight brims
embroidered or plain, save for nn cm
broidered scalloping nround the edge.
with slightly full crowns buttoning to
tho brim, aro as popular as ever for
common wear. A great amount of
handwork, however, is lavished upon
somo of tho more pretentious models,
and It Is possible, to pay an extrava
gant sum for tho tiny girl's lingerie
hnt if ono Is inclined to extravagance.
A New Trimming.
There Is n new French grass used as
a hat trimming which can only be
described ns resembling feathers. It
comes In all sorts of colorings to cor
respond with tho tone of tho hat. A
striking model seen last week In ono
of tho shops was in raspberry hemp
trimmed simply with a mndo bird's
head, from behind which arose a mass
of this grass In raspberry color, giving
tho appearance of a pinkish bird of
paradise.
Vienna's Placue of Pigeons.
Vienna Is suffering from too many
(ilgcons, and tho authorities are nt
loss to know what to do to mitigate
Ihe nuisance. Tho birds, which num
ier somo thousands, have a privileged
existence; nobody molests them In
buy way, so that they flourish and In
crease rapidly.
Recently so-many complaints havo
fieen received from house owners of
the pigeons that tho Vlcnnn tnazls-
irncy decided something must bo done
Ho reduce the number. In their per
plexity the magistracy appealed to tho
(Vienna Society for the Protection of
(Animals to aid them In a legal slaugh
ter of the offending birds, always hav
ing regard, however, to the provisions
of the new birds protection law.
Tho society answered that It would
be hardly consistent with their princi
ples of friendliness toward nnlmals to
engage in a massacre of pigeons and
therefore they must reject the official
appeal.
The magistracy aro now wrestling
with the problem alone. Perhaps tho
unemployed of Vienna might h"lp
them.

Fow persons know that the flavor
