Surrendered the Charter. # The New York, Wyoming and West era Railroad Company Is no more. The linal decree of the court dissolving the corporation was made on Monday in Lackawanna county. This was the company projected by E. L. Fuller, E. B. Sturges and Simpon & Watkins to make the big anthracite carrying rail roads come to terms by carrying the coal of the individual operators. It will be remembered that when the tight was on a few years ago the opera tors of coal mines made demands upon the carriers to give better rates. Upon their refusing to do so they organized the Now York, Wyoming and Western Railroad and took vigorous steps to build a competing railroad from Scranton to tidewater. That brought the carriers to terras and the new *road was aban doned. Since then the indivdual opera tors have mostly sold out. The object of the company having been attained the incorporators went into court and secured the dissolution. Tipping Quick Lunch Wallers. Two moil sat side by side on the high stools of one of those quick lunch places lined with pale tiles like a bathroom that abound in Philadelphia. One of them said to the other: "In a cafe like this few persons tip the wait er behind the counter. They think It would be a waste of money, because the waiter calls their orders down a tube into a kitchen somewhere under ground, and they hold that lie has no jurisdiction over the portions and that they are served just the same whether they tip them or not. "Well, they are altogether mistaken. I know, for I have made a study of this matter. The waiter here lias two tones with which to speak through the tube. One tone is for the patron who tips, the other for him who doesn't. Now, watch a minute." The waiter in an ordinary voice now called three or ders and then in a strange falsetto called that of the man who had been speaking. "You see?" said he to ids companion. "I tip and those other fel lows don't." A moment later lie added triumphantly: "Look at the difference between my order of roast beef and our friend's over there. I've got a big cut out of the heart of the roast, and lie's got two or three little chunks of •end.' Oil, yes; it pays to tip in these places as well as it does anywhere!"— Philadelphia Record. Forcing n Pension. When Thomas Snodgrass, ex-collect or of Ganjani, .Madras, was expelled from the service of the East India company owing to his extravagance, lie applied for a pension, but the com pany turned a deaf ear to liiin. Ac cordingly he arrayed himself in tattered clothes and, armed with a broom, set to work sweeping a crossing In Lcad enhall street in front of the East India house. Immediately all London was agog with the intelligence that an old and distinguished officer of the East India company who had ruled over 100,ObO people and reveled in a palace was now reduced in tlio evening of his life to the necessity of earning his bread by sweeping the streets. The king was thunderstruck and implored Mr. Snodgrass to take himself and his broom away. This lie did when the company gave him his pension. TLIE Celt* and Green. The early Celts worshiped the dawn and the sunrise. It is more than proba ble, therefore, that tlieir liking for the color green which we see in their flags, sashes, etc., arose from a mistake among those who had lost a thorough knowledge of the Irish language. The sun in Celtic is called by a word pro nounced exactly like our word "green," and it is likely that the Irish fondness for that color arose through the strik ing similarity of the two words. In the same way, when we talk about n greenhouse we think tliey are so called because plants are kept green in them during the winter; yet it is far more probable that the word is derived from the old Celtic word for sun, because greenhouses are so built as to catch the rays and heat of the sun and store them for future use. ftt* First Year of l.nw.

DARLING g Copyright, 1001, by A. S. Richardson t 0 ';TTOOTT:.-ottoottcottoottcß j r.iul Frederick stood in front of a j Park row cafe usually denominated the | Second Press club. He was smoking a huge cigar that with the cocktail he had Just purchased within had con sumed his entire capital. The fact that lie was absolutely without funds did not detract from his appreciation of the aroma of the Havana. The situation lacked the charm of novelty. Frederick was too independent to sub mit to the petty rules governing the oilice. This was his third "vacation" in four mouths. Now, with his money all gone, lie looked down the street at The Globe otlice und wondered whether Carson, the city editor, was ready to take him back. As he looked two men came out of ■ the entrance to The Globe. One ran 1 round the corner in the direction of the Press club. The other started up the j street also on the run. When the lat j ter saw Frederick, he stopped abrupt ; ly. Theu he came forward slowly, ! Paul taking no apparent notice of his approach. He ranged alongside with i an evident effort to appear unconcern ed. "Hello, Paul!" he cried. "Have a drink?" Frederick looked up with an air of surprise wholly at variance with the Interest with which lie had regarded i the approach. "Why, hello, Hurrtgau!" lie cried cordially. "No, thanks. I don't want n drink; just had one." He blew a cloud of smoke in Harrigan's direction and mentally congratulated himself that lie had been üble to afford a good one. Freddy Ilnrrignn sniffed apprecia tively, and his face fell. "Say," he re marked casually, "i£ you don't want a drink I can give you a tip. l'ou go see Carson quick, and I think he'll take you on. He needs a man, and I'm glad I saw you." Frederick grinned cheerfully. "I be lieve you are glad you saw me, Fred dy," lie said patronizingly; "also I ap preciate the value of your tip. You run hack to the office. Tell Carson you found me smoking a perfecto. I'll be here in front of Oscar's for the next twenty minutes. Now, scoot." "Oh, I say," retorted Ifarrigan, "you needn't be so independent. Here, out of the goodness of my heart, I offer you a drink and give you a tip. Then you turn round and cull me a messen ger boy." Frederick patted him on the back. "You're a good copy reader, Freddy, but you're too poor u liar to make a good reporter. You and Johnson came out of the door with much haste. John ny sneaks uround to the Press club. You start up here, but break to a walk when you see me. You make a casual pluy. You've got the price of two balls and want to blow it. If you've got a quarter this lute in the week, Carson gave it to you for a bait. If he staked you, he wants me, and wants me bad. Now, run on and don't forget to tell him I'm still smoking up." Hurrigan went briskly back to the office. Frederick went oil smoking, concentrating his gaze upon the crowd idling in the June sunshine and watch ing the tunnel workmen in Cltv Hall park. The smoke served as a barometer to Carson, who came up the street. Fred erick could smoke anything from cutty to the best of Cuban leuf. Between the two lay a hundred shades of finan cial expression. When he smoked a pipe, lie was tractable. The better the cigar the less amenuble was he to dis cipline. Carson clapped him on the back. Frederick turned. "Hello, Carson!" he exclaimed. "So you did want me, eh?" Carson stamped impatiently. "Don't waste time fencing. I need you or I would not have come ufter you. Do you suppose I caii chase the row every time I want a new man? llow much money have you?" "Enough to buy smokes with. What more can I want?" "The St. Paul leaves in forty min utes. Get oil board. J. 11. Philbrick, tile head of the new copper trust, is on the ship. It is supposed he wants to get English capital. If you can get the story, Fenton, our Loudon man will meet you at Southampton. Have the story ready for cabling. You do that, and I'll see you get your job back. Now, run for it. Pay your fare, and Fenton will make good." "Haven't got the fare; only ex penses," said Frederick. Carson looked blank. "Sneak it!" lie said, brightening. "Use my card and tell the purser I will make it all right with the steamer people." "Ail right Send it by Fenton, so I can square up before I leave the steam er. They might hold me in pawn, you know." Carson laughed. "All right, but for heaven's sake get away. You'll miss the steamer." Frederick's whistle woke a sleepy .-nbman under the city ball trees. As he came across the car tracks Paul turned to his companion. "Got any small change for the cab?" he asked. "All I have is one fifty dollar bill." Carson thrust a small wad of bills at liim and bundled Paul into the vehicle. "American line pier double quick. Goodby, Frederick." Within the call Frederick smoothed out the bills. There was s!>. Two for the cab left a capital of $7 for the trip. lie was sorry he hod boasted of that fifty. **••* About 4 o'clock that afternoon tho purser of the St. Paul was working over his passenger list when Paul sauntered in. "1 want to Introduce myself as Paul Frederick of the New York Globe." he announced. "No," as the purser pick ed up a passenger list; "you won't find my name there. That's why I'm here. Mr. Carson, our managing editor of the evening edition, found it necessary that I should sail on this steamer. As I saw him on the street and we had no time to go back to the office, a man will meet me at Southampton with my passage money. Now, I want a good berth and. if possible, a seat at the table with Philbrick. You fix me out, and I'll give you a sendoff in The Globe that will make your hair curl like a kid glove on a hot stove. Have one V" The purser bit off he end of the proffered cigar as he reached for tlic plan of the dining saloon. Presently he looked up with a smile. "I guess we can fix it," he announced. "I can put you at the right of Miss Philbrick. Here is your card, and I will instruct the table steward. By the way, I can give you a stateroom near the Phil bricks on the promenade deck. No no thanks. I'm only too glad to oblige The Globe. Drop in on me any time I can give yon plenty of good stories." Paul went back on deck with a self satisfied smile. lie was only sorry that his table seat was next the daughter Instead of the father, but she might be a good way of reaching the old chap. At dinner lie quite forgot to be sorry Miss Philbrick had bewitching blue eyes and a smile that made copper trusts seem of small importance. He congratulated himself that here was the chance to combine business and pleasure. That night in the smoking room he borrowed $5 from the purser and won forty. The next day success still fa vored him. "I could make a nice little pile this trip," lie said to himself, "for I am staying in luck, If 1 did not have to give so much time to Philbrick—and his daughter." Whether the latter occupation was business or pleasure lie did not trouble to explain, even to himself. All was bustle in The Globe office. It was just after 12, and the night editor was standing by the telegraph desk. Fenton, tlw head of the London office, had cabled that the St. Paul was due at her dock by 1 in the morning. Allowing for the difference in time, the story, if Frederick had secured it, should be coming in. At the adjoin ing table the operator was reeling off small paragraphs. Suddenly he looked at the editor. "Here it comes," lie said quietly. "The cable office is calling." And he reached for a fresh pile of paper. The night editor leaned over his shoulder then to read the first few sentences. Then lie rushed to the speaking tube leading to the mechanic al department. "Save two columns on the first page," he culled to the makeup man. "Frederick's story is coming in full." Then lie lit a cigar and went back to the telegraph desk to see that the cable got away quickly to the copy readers. Itupidly the operator took down the long dispatch, which told in condensed form much of the plans of the copper magnate. It was the first full story that had been printed. Finally the operator marked the tailpiece which indicated the end of a story. Then he laughed as lie reached for a fresh sheet, and this is what lie wrote: Carson, Globe, New York: Story scoop. Am guarding Philbrick from other boys. Got story and won the girl. Engaged to Miss Philbrick. Smokes on inc. "Well," laughed Carson the next morning as he read the dispatch, "1 guess Frederick made a double scoop." Bffprt. of Pepper. A writer 011 foods declares that pep per is a vegetable poison, a stimulant, hut in no sense a food; a substance nonusable by the vital organs and therefore to be thrown out of the vita! domain. Iled or black pepper is a prolific cause of enlargement of the blood vessels and ultimately of disease of the heart. Its immediate effect is to create in creased action, not only of the capil laries, causing temporary congestion and even inflammation of the mucous surfaces, but also of the organs which secrete the digestive fluids. Its ulti mate effect Is to weaken and deaden these organs by repeated stimulation to abnormal action. It also impairs or destroys the nerves of taste in the mouth, together with the gastric or other nerves which aid in the process of digestion. When these are weakened by stimu lants, the functions themselves are nec essarily impaired, and confirmed dys pepsia, with its attendant train of bad symptoms, brings up the rear. Why the Villain Protested. "Aha-a-a," growled the heavy vil lain, scowling savagely at the foot lights, "I have her in me power at lust. Aha-a-a!" This was the cue for the heroine to enter and give a start of horrified sur prise at discovering him with "the his tory of her past life in his hands. But she did not enter. "Aha-a-a!" repeated the villain once more, while he looked anxiously off stage. Still no heroine. "Aha-a-a!" At this point the stage manager slip ped into the wings and hoarsely whig pered: "You'll have to nlin-a-a four or five limes more. Bill.

A few slices of orange added to cream of tomato soup just before serv ing will Improve its flavor. When baking bread, have the oven quite hot when the loaves are first put in and let tho lient diminish. Hot water, according to a cooking teacher, makes an omelet more tender than when milk is used. The rule is a tablespoon fill of the liquid to one egg. Before frying bacon soak it In cold water for three or four minutes. This will prevent the fat from running and will make the bacon go much further. It is not always necessary to line all the tins with paper on cake baking day. To grease them and then dredge them with flour is sufficient for a plain layer cake. Fruit to be used in cake should be well dried before being used. Wash 1 lie day before you want it, dry on tins and keep in the warmer all day. Always flour before using. It adds to both the flavor and diges tibility of baked beans if a half tea spoonful of mustard is added to the water that Is poured over tho beans after they reach the baking dish. To give an appetizing flavor to a broiled steak, cut an onion in halves, rub the cut edges over tho heated dish on which the moat is to be served and in which there should be a little melt ed butter. Fairy Pnrtlen. A children's party, with each guest representing some character from fairy stories, with ice cream in shape of fairies and tiny glass, gold or silver slippers for favors, would delight the little folks, or a jungle party, with characters taken from the well known animal books, admits of many pretty, inexpensive costumes, and brownies, fairies and other beings may be appro priately introduced. Games in which the littlest ono may take part, a supper so simple that the wisest mother could not object and some little favor for each child make the party a success. Little fairy lamps, pretty flower bas kets of tissue filled with sweets, any of the fancy animal or vegetable candy boxes, make nice favors. At a recent baby party where the host celebrated his fourth birthday the supper was tiny rice croquettes, bread and butter sandwiches tied with pink ribbon, plain vanilla Ice cream, pound cake and milk in delightful bowls with pic tures of children running around the edge. Each baby took home a little basket of the purest of candies, and there were no evil results from the par ty. If, as you confess, you are not fa miliar with children's games of the day, engage some young kindergarten teacher to help you with the games. The You itw Women of Chile. Girls of tho higher class in Chile do not attend the public school. The prin cipal reasons for this are the nondenio cratic tendencies of the parents, to gether with the idea that teachers should only have a few pupils. Man ners and deportment are taught in the schools from the beginning. Teachers are as careful as to the way their pu pils enter and leave a room and take tlieir seats as they are particular re garding their exercises and lessons. The girl of the first classes in all Span ish America are born and reared in an atmosphere oi beauty, refinement and grace. Many of tliem, especially in Chile, becoming musicians and artists of no mean order. This is clearly illus trated by the fact that at tlie Pan- American exposition not only prizes for painting, but statuary as well, fell to the lot of the young women of Chile, by far the more advanced along every line than any other women of Spanish America. They are by no means the idle women pictured by those who know nothing about them, and the for eigner is often apt to mistake poise and aputhy for laziness. i i Allays Up-tn-Date!
