MEANS A NEWrPARTY
What Cleveland's Principles Vnen Laid
" Down Will Leal
FORMER OFFICE-HOLDERS ANGRY
Because the President Refuses to Rec
ognize Them Nothwithstanding
Their Work for Him.
Washington, March 18. If Cleve
land remains true to the principles he
has laid down in the matter of appoint
ing men to office, he will make quite a
stride towards civil service reform. If
all his ideas are carried put, be will be
able - to organize a party that a great
many people can join, even if he does
drive a large number of democrats away
from him. In turning down the ex-office
holders he made a master etroke in
one or two directions. He unloaded
from his shoulders a horde of the most
persistent office-seekers a president
could encounter, These old-timers had
been through the mill and they knew
just what to do. They had all, at one
time or another, seen Cleveland,' and
could approach him with . a degree of
familiarity that made him tired. But
he made them mad, and what is more,
only a very few had the nerve to come
out publicly and say so. The trouble
was that during the four years Cleveland
was in office they performed the lick
spittle functions - with' a great deal of
earnestness. Nothing that Cleveland
ever did was even for a moment to be
subject to censure. He could do no
wrong. They gathered in hordes at the
St. Louis convention in 1888, and shout
ed themselves hoarse over his renomina
tion. After his defeat, charged, of course,
to the New York democracy, which did
not "love Cleveland for the enemies he
had made," they at'once began a cam
paign for Cleveland's renomination.
Many a democrat who held office under
Cleveland, had said very suggestive
ly during the past fewjdays :
"Where would Cleveland have been
now if it had not been for the ex-officeholders?"
'
And this is worthy of comment, for
every person who was at the Chicago
convention in 1892 knows that it was the
ex-office-holders that secured his nomi
nation. Those who were not there had
their henchmen there. The delegates
were not all ex-office-holders, and the
convention was dominated by them.
"Had it been announced that this was
to. be Cleveland's policy a year ago, what
wouldliave been the result?" plaintively
inquired one of the " faithful who had
been informed that the- brand he carried
over from the last Cleveland administra
tion barred him from any of the pap to
be ladled out now. And what is also
galling to the ex-office-holders is the
fact that Cleveland does not consider
himself in the category of an ex-officeholder.
It makes them mad to think
that after four years of persistent work
they were able to nominate Cleveland
again, and then to have him claim it was
the spontaneous uprising of the people.
- The Ulna Burning.
Honeybrook, Pa., March 19. The
Honeybrook mine took fire several
months ago, burning away the supports
and closing the openings. It was sup
posed to have burned itself out, but it is
now burning fiercer that ever. The sur
face near the stripplings is so heated
that water flowing over it is immediately
dried up. Grave apprehension is felt
for the surrounding mines, as the fires
are liable to eat into their workings.

Correspondence Tampered With.
Washington, March 19. Several rep
resentatives of the American board of
commissioners for foreign missions
visited Washington last week. They
came from the Boston headquarters of
the body with which they are connected,
and had several interviews with Josiab
Quincy, acting first assistant secretary
of slate. They told him that the Turk
ish officials had interfered with the cor
respondence of the American mission;
aries in that country ; that the mission
aries were subject to much ill-treatment
by the natives who were not restrained
by the authorities ; and that messages
from United States Minister Thompson
to the state department in Washington
never reached their destination, from
which he (Thompson) inferred his mail
was tampered with. The investigation
will be completed in a few days.
The Rayeux Tapestry.
Tapestry was brought into general rise
in western Europe, with many other
elegancies of life, by the Moors of Spain.
The oldest known specimen is the Bayeux
tapestry, an epic in embroidery, careful
ly treasured for centuries in the cathe
dral of Bayeux, and now preserved iii
the bote! de vjlle of that place. Miss
Strickland says of this piece of work:
- "It is beyond all competition the
most wonderful achievement in the gen
tle craft of needlework that ever was
executed by fair and royal hands."
It was done by Matilda of Flanders
wife of William the Conqueror, and the
ladies of her court. It is a coarse linen
cloth, 214 feet long and 20 inches wide,
on which is worked in woolen thread of
various colors a representation of the
invasion and conquest of England by the
Normans.
It contains the figures of about 625
men, 200 horses, fifty-five dogs, forty
ships and boats, besides a quantity of
quadrupeds, birds, trees, houses, castles
and churches, all executed in the proper
colors, with names and inscriptions over
them to elucidate the story. It is a
valuable historic document, as it gives a
correct and minute portraiture of the
Norman costumes and' their manners
und customs. Woman's Work.
Aliments of the Eyes.
No organ of the body is liable to a
greater variety of ailments than the eye.
More than forty such diseases are enu
merated in medical works.
Some of these tend toward blindness,
partial or complete. Some are highly
contagious. Some are peculiar to the
earliest stages of infancy; some to old
age. Some are due to other diseases;
some originate with the eye itself; some
are the result of external wounds. Soma
are brought on by the improper use of
the eye; some by the abuse of other or
gans. Some are partially or wholly
curable; others are not.
As we . have two eyes, the loss of one
does not materially affect the other.
The double provision is a wise and be
nevolent one in the case of an organ ex
posed to bo many accidents from with
out and so many diseases from within.

Giving Wood a Good Color.
Many hard woods of superior color
and grain may be greatly improved by
treatment. . The graining or marking of
the wood is always a beautiful feature,
and it can be greatly improved and ac

piece one coat of raw oil, and then with
a camel's hair brush going over the vari
ous lines and veinings several times.

ANOTHER BIG FIRE
Tie Tremont ' Temple in Boston Com-
nletely GnM Yesterday.
WATER DAMAGES PARKER HOUSE
The Temple Was the Headquarters of
the Baptists and Was Twice
Before Destroyed by Fire.
Boston, March 19. Fire broke out
about 7 o'clock this morning in Tremont
temple, on Tremont street, opposite the
Tremont House, and before noon the en
tire structure was gutted. No mishaps
are reported to the guests. The temple
was a fiery furnace 20 minutesafter the
first alarm. The blaze poured from all
the upper windows of the Burnham
building and W. S. Butler's building, ad
joining on Tremont street, placing the
Parker house and the Park hotel in
danger in the rear and alarming the fire
men lest it should get down among the
rookeries on Province street. At 9:30
o'clock the fire was well under control,
the 1,000 occupants at the Parker house
and Park hotel returning to their rooms.
The loss on the temple is variously
estimated at from $325,000 to $375,000,
while the Parker house - is believed to
have been damaged by water' to the ex
tent of $50,000.

Woman's Dainty Underwear.
Just what sort of underwear to assume
is one question that troubles the average
woman very much. She doesn't want
to wear so much that it will be bulky,
and she doesn't want to wear too little
for fear she will catch cold. She tries
first one and then another shaped gar
ment, and the wise woman is she who,
having at last hit upon that which is
most comfortable, makes it most dainty
and assumes it for good. Very little
linen is used nowadays for one's lingerie,
the preference being given to cambric,
Victoria lawn, nainsook or percale. The
last is noted with tiny dots or wee flow
ers in pink, blue or lavender upon the
white ground. Then when the garment
is finished the edges have a triple scal
lop or a sharp point embroidered in cot
ton of the same color as the figure. This
material, with its simple finish, is liked
for sack shaped chemises, for night
dresses and for drawers. It is seldom,
if ever, used for skirts.
The fancy for silk nightdresses still
exists, but as'there always have been
women who would wear nothing but the
clear white lawn - or nainsook, and as
these women are many, the makers of
underwear are specially catering to
them. Very much more fine work, that
is, handwork, can be put upon a nain
sook gown than jipon a silk one. and the
needlewoman can make more fine tucks,
fancy stitches, gatherings, hemstitch
ing and drawing of threads than ever
would . seem possible. Mrs. Mallon in
Ladies' Home Journal.
"Lighthouses are very expensive, re
marked Mrs. Piniling, looking up from
a government report.
"Yes, any theatrical manager will tell
you that," replied her husband. Detroit
