SUAYISM DOOMED. TTie baffled Quay combine has run out the mud machine and raised the black flag. This Is a sure sign of coming defeat. The boss never loses his head when things go right and the way to renewed triumph Is clear. But a campaign of costly blunders is cul minating in a disastrous break-up: hence the tactics of desperation. The people have understood the confidence game that was to be played. The de coy has been uncovered. Fennypackerism has been thorough ly exposed. The candidate of the ma chine has told on himself. He has not dared even to make feeble protest that he Is his own master. He has fearfully dissipated his party strength at every step. It is seen that a grand smash Is just ahead. So orders have gone out to use forbidden weapons; to strike in the dark; to use slanderous false hood; to mislead the Ignorant; to arouse prejudice and passion; to slay in vengeance. This is the meaning of baseless at tacks on the Democratic candidates. This is the secret of tho mercenary activity of certain cheap elements, al ways In the political shambles. The printing pr.u has been prostituted to •erve dishonorable purposes. The tempter Is abroad, seeking to use con scienceless election ofiicers and po litical workers. Venal voters will be corralled. A last desperate stand will be made, but in vain. Let every intelligent citizen calmly consider the purpose which inspires all this wicked work. Let him regard the "last cards" now being thrust into his face as the product of social out laws. They will stop at nothing. They have ample resources. They de spise the law. They will rule or ruin —lf they can. The pirates are on deck; but the battle has beeu fairly fought, with clean hands, and with a full vote on the part of honest citi zenship, I'ennsylvanla, on Tuesday next, will be freed forever from the blighting control of Quaylsm. The Quay hirelings stop at nothing. Their base attempt to "work" the min ers' convention showed how desperate they are. Only the most degraded politicians would thus Impudently meddle with the affairs of honoßt work men. The miners know how they have been betrayed aforetime. They will do their own thinking and their own voting. They know that Governor Pattlson signed more labor bills than Beaver, Hastings and Stone combined. Let no young man begin the duties of citizenship by casting his first vote to sustain the power that has cursed Pennsylvania for a generation. Stand up for pure politics and honest gov ernment. Vote for Pattlson and the whole Democratic ticket and you will make no mistake. Pattison and Guthrie have made a magnificent canvass. They have vis ited nearly every county, made about two hundred speeches each and faced upwards of 200,000 people. Such earnest and faithful work will tell Im mensely on election day. See that every polling place Is well manned on election day and every vote brought out. This will mean a great victory for the people. Earnest effort all along the line will ensure an honeßt legislature. Look t the figlit iu every district. _ Dr. David Kennedys favorite Remedy CURC9 aix Kidney, stomach 1 " AND LIVER TROUBLES. DUTY OP INDEPENDENTS Tha Veteran Philadelphia Reformer, H. C. Lea, Urges a Full Vote For Pattlson. Henry C. Lea, distinguished politi cal writer and representative business man, in a letter to Secretary George E. Mapes, of the Union party of this ■tate, makes a strong, clear argument on what he considers the plain duty of independent voters in the present state fight. Prompted by the Dauphin county court's declaration that all cer tificates of nomination from the Union party's state convention are Invalid, Mr. Lea writes: Since the decision of Judge Simonton has deprived the Union party of a col umn on the ballot, It would seem that means should be taken to remind inde pendent voters that their object can be attained by marking either in the column of the "Ballot Reform" or of the Democratic party. Not a Vote Should Be Lost. It is of the highest importance that In the approaching election not a vote should be lost of those who desire the overthrow of the machine. It is rare that in the politics of Pennsylvania such an opportunity offers of emanci pating the city and state from the foul domination which has rendered them throughout the land the type of all that disgraces our institutions. This is a critical period in which partisan feel ings should be forgotten. There are no national issues at stake; the contest is confined strictly within the boundaries of the state, and the result will be simply to determine whether we are to be emancipated or are to continue In bondage to the machine. Should Stand By Pattison. No thinking man can doubt that tho election of Mr. Pattison —with the rec ord behind him of two eminently hon est and conservative gubernatorial terms —would prove greatly more ser viceable to the community than that of his competitor, who represents the ma lodorous influences that placed him in nomination. Nor can anyone deny that this would be a substantial service rendered to the Republican party by relieving it of the odium which it has Justly incurred by its leadership in this state. Nor, moreover, can any Repub lican apprehend future disaster to his party, through its defeat in November on these purely local issues, seeing that the position of the state, in a pres idential election, is one which does not admit the possibility of a question. This is BO absolutely safe that, on R urely local issues, the warmest Repub can can permit himself the luxury of independent voting. UNION PARTY VOTE 9 Chairman Hicks Advises Use of Ballot Reform Column For State Candidates. Advice to Independent Republican voters to turn in for Pattison, Guthria and Nolan, the candidates on the Democratic and Ballot Reform state tickets, is given in a formal address Issued by State Chairman Hicks, of the Union party. He says we recom mend: First —That the members of the Un ion party vote the Ballot Reform state ticket—Pattison, Guthrip and Nolan— in the Ballot Reform column. Second —In counties where there are Union party legislative and county tickets, vote for the Union party candi dates in the Union column, so that such votes may be counted as Union party votes, and nreserve to the Union party the right to make nominations hereafter, by having polled the neces sarly percentage of the vote. Where there are no Union party legislative and county candidates vote for the Bal lot Reform or Democratic legislative nominees, excepting such as have made objectionable records in past legisla tive sessions. Third —Vote for such Ballot Reform or Democratic judicial and county nom inees, where no Union party column is presented, whose public and private records commend them to the support of the anti-Quay Republicans. Fourth —Vote for Republicans for congress. Where there is more than one Republican candidate for congress, vote for the one whose election will give the most creditable representation in the district and most emphatically repudiate Quaylsm and prove most ad vantageous to the cause of reform. By following this course, Union par ty voterH and independent citizens gen erally will demonstrate: First—That tills is not a fight upon the part of the independent Republi cans to weaken the Republican na tional administration. Second —That it is purely a state con test for good government, c*lean poll tics and opposition to the thieving com bination which has for its sole and sel fish purpose the robbery of the people of the commonwealth and the cities therein. Third—That in spite of any conspir acies the people can find away, even though it be inconvenient, to resent and oppose the course pursued by the Republican machine of Pennsylvania. THE BALLOT REFORM ISSUE Pennypacker Dodges, While Pattison Points to His Official Record. Chairman Woodruff, of the Joint committee for the Promotion of Elec tion Reforms, recently wrote to the two gubernatorial candidates, Messrs. Pen nypacker and Pattison, concerning their attitude toward the ballot reform bill and personal registration bill ad vocated by the joint committee. Mr. Pennypacker replied very briefly thnt ballot reform Is a question to which he has given much attention. He states further that the preparation of a ballot reform bill is now in the hands of a committee appointed for that pur pose. This letter is taken as meaning that the Republican candidate, before com mitting himself, wants to know what will be done by Senator Quay's "Bal lot Reform Committee," or by Quay. In striking contrast with this saying of practically nothing on the main is sue of the state campaign is the follow ing reply from ex-Governor Pattison to Chairman Woodruff: No Mistaking Pattlson's Stand. "I received your letter requesting as fully and clearly as possible my opin ion in regard to the Important ques tions, 'Ballot Reform' and 'Personal Registration.' "Permit me to refer you to my inau gural address to the legislature in Jan uary, 1891, when I recommended the Australian system for adoption, and also 'personal registration.' During the four years, in every message to the legislature, suggestions were made for the improvement of the ballot system of our state. I would quote these at length, but I am sure you have them at hand. If not, I will be pleased to furnish you with copy. "I hold the same opinion as to ballot reform and personal registration whjch I expressed to the legislature from time to time." The SPORTING WORLD Career of "Booln'' Darnell. C. E. Durnell, the young turfman who recently has become a factor In western racing affairs, has had wide experience for a man of his years. He is only twenty-six years of age and has followed the turf in America, England and France. lie has served with lulSli M 1 I Bb) lijii (ill /// C. E. ("BOOTS") DURNELL. Enoch Wlshard, the trainer for the stable of John A. Drake; has been a Jockey, and Is now gathering a strong stable of thoroughbreds. Durnell is nicknamed "Boots" and bears a striking resemblance to Man ager Clark Griffith of the Chicago White Stockings. He went to work for Scoggan Bros. In Kentucky In 1888 as a stable boy and jockey. At that time Enoch Wlshard was working for the same stable. In 1803 the part nership of McCafferty & Wishard was formed, and Durnell became associated with the two turfmen as assistant trainer. In 1807 he went to California as trainer for Galen Brown and there brought out his first horse, Potente. He next purchased Dr. Slieppard from Burns & Waterhouse, afterward tak ing the horse to England. Durnell returned to America and ar ranged a partnership with Emll Herz. The latter Is a native of Germany, nnd the present Is his first connection with racing in this country. The firm has engaged Jockey Buchanan's riding services for the winter nnd will retain Jockey Treanor for lightweight riding. It has not been decided whether the firm will race in California or New Orleans. Concerning "Rube" Wnddell. Some baseball managers declare that "Rube" Waddell, the interesting nnd eccentric pitcher, apparently has no idea of the "eternal fitness" of things. He is something of a spendthrift, and when he wants money he will promise anything and sign any agreement to get it. In this connection It is related that on one occasion when his services were in demand and he was being bid for by several clubs he had an appoint ment with a manager at the hitter's hotel. They agreed on salary, and the contract was drawn up ready to sign. Then Rube insisted on having some money in advance. "I haven't a bit of cash," said the manager, "but I'll give you a check for $5<X) if you'll sign." "All right," replied the eccentric play er; "produce your check." The manager went in search of a blank check, and during his absence a rival inauager entered the office and saw Wnddell. He also made the play er an offer, and Rube told him of the arrangements already made. "The eheck ain't going to do you no good," explained the newcomer; "you can't get no money on it till tomorrow. What you want is cash In hand. Come with me and I'll give you SIOO in cur rency," and he began counting out the bills. "That's what I want," assented Wad dell. He took the money and when the first manager returned calmly no tified him that everything was off. Lord Derby and Crenceus. E. E. Smothers' challenge to race Lord Derby against any trotter in the world for $25,000 is likely to go unan swered so fur as Champion Cresceus is concerned. Mr. Ketcham said re garding the challenge: "I will not race Cresceus against any horse this season. His time is all filled, and I would not consider any proposition for a match race. In fact, I could not do so if I wanted to without having to cancel several profitable engagements, and it would be a foolish proposition for me to do that. Whether or not I would consider a proposition to race him next year remains to he seen." Ynle'H Ittinh Line. The Yale rush line this year has four men each of whom weighs more than 200 pounds. These are Glass, 211; Holt, 205; Goss, 200, and Hamlin, 203. This is sure to be one of the strongest rush lines in the country nnd will average several pounds heavier than that of Harvard. For this rea son the blue will depend on close for mation plays. "Major" Taylor May Quit. "Major" Taylor talks of quitting the cycle rucing game. The lot of this re markable rider lias been none V lO en viable since ho rose Into prominence, and he is heartily sick of the whole game. Lavift'iie Coliik Abroad.

" Try Riving castor oil in warm weath er with plenty of sugar. The baby's lips will smack over it. It is much easier to dress baby on the bed than on your lap. You will have both hands free and greater lib erty of motion. If the baby kicks much in his bath it will be well for the first month to bathe him with his binder on. This will prevent all danger of straining. There is nothing children love much better than small furniture, made for them. Little chairs they often have, but low tables are more rare. They should have them also. Mothers make the memories that are to be the inheritance of their children during all our lives. What a tribute to mother love it is, when the silver haired man or woman says: "We did have such good times when we were children!" It is always a good sign for a baby to sleep a great deal, and delicate and puny infants who sleep much become strong and healthy children. Even babies who are large and thriving at birth, unless they get a great deal of sleep, become weak and sickly. Facial Mn.k. I have been asked about the value of medicated face masks, and have learned the efficacy of n homemade mask in a ease of severest clogging and inactivity of the pores. The girl who tried it made a mask for herself from two old linen towels, worn very thin. She made her preparation of oatmeal boiled to a pulp and mixed with butter milk. Spreading this on the towels, she made two flat poultices, widen covered almost all of her face except the nose, and, trying it on, she went to licr room and took a nap of two hours. When she awoke her skin looked fresher and fairer than for a long time, and, encouraged, she persisted in the use of her mask, making a fresh one every day. At the end of a week her skin was like soft silk, and naturally she has sworn by her method ever since. This oatmeal and buttermilk, or simple bread and milk, or even oat meal and water, cannot but be ben eficial to the skin, cleansing it, whit ening it nnd making it softer and smooth. Such is the only "facial mask" I would ever advise.—Exchange. ClreuNC Spota. Many a housewife who thinks she knows the best way to eradicate grease spots, the most common of all stains, finds that within a few weeks after treatment the garment has an unsightly ring where the spot was. This was due to the fact that when the stain was rubbed and the grease loos ened, it, lacking an absorbent, spread itself into the surrounding fabric. This is the right way to remove a grease spot: Tuke benzine, gasoline, turpen tine or, best of all, ether, and moisten a inrge riug around the grease spot, gradually working toward the center. When tlds is reached, immediately sat urate two pieces of blotting paper with the spirit, place one beneath and the other 011 top and press with a weight. By this means the grease will be ab sorbed as soon as dissolved. Tarnished Silver. An enterprising housekeeper bus made the discovery that the applica tion of the ordinary oil used in polish ing hardwood floors is most effective in cleaning tarnished silver. So many of the cleaning materials used for this purpose are injurious to the hands and keep one's nails and the skin about them in a constantly dry, harsh con dition that any simple suggestion like the above is most welcome. The oil should be applied with a flannel cloth and the article given a brisk rub after ward with another cloth. Candlesticks and pieces of the silver service, with beading, curves and crevices out of whicli it is often so difficult to remove the pastes and powders, will be found practically easy with this simple treat ment. China With tlie Children. There are many conscientious fa thers and mothers who make them selves and their children miserable by taking youthful foibles too seriously. It is an innate propensity of a child possessed of the average good health and spirits to make older people laugh with him, not at him, but at the tilings that seem amusing to his own sense, and the mother who lias the blithe and ready humor to enter into his fun be comes ids most fascinating companion. lie heeds licr rebukes and bends to her correction without 111 feeling where sternness would arouse his pride and ire, for he is assured that she is ready to share all his innocent pranks and that her disapproval lias no foundation in impatience or injustice. 1)1 nI iiK Tnlile Centerpiece. A fern dish with a few growing plants therein is a pleasing everyday centerpiece for the dining table. It is an easy matter to procure one of these dishes, for the china and even the sil ver ferneries arc not expensive, while shallow dishes to lie found in the Jap anese shops and departments ure not only cheap, but are effective. At small cost these may bo tilled with ferns nnd by the exercise of a little care will fur nish the ever welcome lilt of "living green" in the dining room. The Kflfeet of Miihl on OrcNH. In choosing an evening dress we should certainly take into considera tion whether it is intended for day light, electric light, gas or candle light, for all these different conditions have a great effect. Colors look totally dif ferent in gas and electric lights. The former is disguising; the latter shows every inaccuracy and nothing so much as a badly matched color and tones which the French say "bite." gXXXXKXXXXXXXXXXXXXKXSSj I Men's and Boys' | g Overalls, Blouses, 8 8 Working | Shirts and Shoes. | | Complete Lines | |f Fall Hats and Caps, || Underwear and Hosiery, Jc 1,1 Furnishings and Neckwear. 5^ ~ 1 | Shoes for Men, Women, Boys g | and Girls at Very g i Lowest Prices.
