It was decided that inas much as there were a number ol States without representatives In the Demo cratic party in the house, the organlia tlon should not be considered until the next meeting ot the committee to be held two weeks later, when chairman, secre tary and assistant secretary will be chosen.

For pavement it I rapidly sup. planting all other 'materials, Including brick, and the natural article, and much of It is being utilized nowaday in the building of bouses, newly discovered processes hating so far Improved the product as to render It actually more durable than real stone and in some cases quite as handsome. There are several patented processes for the manufacture of sandstone, the raw materials employed being Chiefly sand and lime In one shape or another. Granite is reproduced ' artificially by grinding ordinary granite to a powder, mixing It with clay and then subject ing molded blocks of It to the action of Intense heat Imitation marble Is obtained by mix ing oxide of magnesium with chloride of magnesium,' the former being ob tained by burning, the mineral called "mngneslte" sod the latter by treating the oxide with hydrochloric acid Artificial marble la also produced from ordinary plaster of paris harden. ed by an admixture of borax and cer- tain other ingredients and agreeably colored with mineral oxides. For this purpose the oxides of Iron and copper are sometimes employed,. TO PREVENT COLLISIONS. Jamestown Ma a Woald Make Use of the Sound Waves. Captain F. P. Cobham of Jamestown, N. l'w announces an Important inven tion of bis own, which, he claims, has been thoroughly tested, that promises j to do n way with signal towers and wires for signaling trains along rail ways. . The Invention makes use of the sound waves as discovered by Mar conL The signal is u small and Inexpensive Instrument carried In the cab of the lo comotive. The Instrument has a lever by which the engineer can adjust bis locomotive to the tracks on which he Is traveling. 'If it Is a one track road. all Instruments are adjusted alike; If there are two or more tracks, the eu glneer adjusts bis machine to the dif- 'erent tracks by moving a lever. w nen ine instrumeni is property su- wted iV? ,clah"' ' wl" Klve notice of any otbr locomotive on he um tnck vUch approncbe, wIth. in 2.000 feet of It by the ringing of a bell, and It will also Indicate In which direction the engines are running or .whether one of them la standing stllL The evidence that all colds are Infec tious and that without the presence of infection It is Impossible to catch a cold Is prolMihly far stronger than most medical men realise, says Dr. H. W. Gardner In the New York Journal. ; Colds are almost unknown la the arctic circle, not on account of tneac tlon of the continuous cold, but be-1 cause the greater part of that region Is I uninhabited. When Sir William Con way and his men were exploring Spits bergen, though tbey were exposed to great privations ana were aimosi con- gtantly wct throngh they never caught a cold( but directly they came down to Andree's settlement on the coast where great privations and were almost con- some fortv men were llvine in almost constant Intercourse with the main- land, thev all develooed violent colds.

Every wearer .of eyeglasses has no ticed how they become dim with mois ture when subjected to a sudden change of temperature. A German scientific paper says that this may be prevented i by rubbing the glasses with soft potash soap every morning. Tbey may be pol ished bright after the soap is applied, but an Invisible film is left on them that will prevent the. deposit of niols-1 ture. . i i -' . Aa Appliance For the Deaf. ' . A new Russian apparatus for restor ing hearing consists of a light rubber shell, furnished with a miniature mi crophone, which is connected to a small galvanic battery. It is claimed that the microphone causes even the softest speech to react on the auditory nerve of. tbe deaf when the apparatus Is placed to the ear, ' Loadea Cos; Welshed.

The present time witnesses the stock lug op of tbo linen closet la many households, and this Is too often done at - disadvantage through lack of knowledge as to what really consti tutes good linen., a A' lady goes Into a shop and buys towels afternoon teaclotbs and other Items under the name of linen, possl- Diy . ot asmasK, wbich be is some times told is "made in, German," but is more often left to form her own Judgment about The material looks nice when new f or it Is very cleverly dressed, and Is so heap that Mi she paused to consider she would knowit could not really be pure linen woven of flax yarn, but it Is white and fring ed or hemstitched.

Then she dis covers, or some one more experienced . J0OILIK8 WITH LACE BOBDEBS. tella her, that it is a mixture of flax And . cotton. Some enlightening hints from The American Kitchen Magazine are subjoined on the buying of table linen, i ' The comparative merits of bleached and unbleached damasks depend upon the nae to which the cloth is to be put and upon the opportunity for bleaching at the command of the housewife. For rougher, or commoner use and in the country the unbleached has advan tages. The city housekeeper has no suitable opportunity for bleaching. ' , A tablecloth made in one piece- is more satisfactory than one bought. by the yard. There is not a great differ ence in the prices, and the greater beauty of the patterned cloth lg worth more to the user, .- If damask is stiff and crackles when fcent, it has probably been starcbedto make it seem of a better quality 4fcnn it is. Good - damask has an elastic texture. ".-. Unbleached damask may be ibougbt for about 50 cents a yard. From that as the lowest point prices range to 4 or $5 a yard for the finest pieces. , ,i We&bt is the standard ot price. It lsot wise to buy anything for the ta le that weighs less than four and a nan ounces to me square vara. . , The German linen Is not so snow white as the Irish and lacks the vari ety and freshness In patterns, but. it Is durable. , '. A dozen and a half or two dozen napkins should be bought with each tablecloth. . Straight bands between center and border are troublesome in ironing. Fineness is not a safe guide either ror auraMUty or lasting peauty. raaerns usuany can oe aupucaiea within two years. Never buy a mixture of cotton and Unen. !t -- , Avoid extreme size In napkins. . ' Bow to Cat Bread. - The proper thing In cutting bread Is noted thus by the Boston Cooking i School Magasslne Tttaaii1 fal 111 VI, Bread for luncheon and breakfast ' should be cut from one-fourth to one third of an Inch thick, then cut in halves from top to bottom. Pile evenly on a plate with the cut edges close togeth er. Place only six or eight layers on a plate. : . ' . '',' , , , Dinner bread should be thicker than that used for breakfast and luncheon. Cut slices of bread three-fourths of an Inch thick and trim them until they are three and a half by three and a half Inches. Cut in halves and place a piece in tbe folds of each napkin. If tbd bread must be cut long before serving; It may be kept fresh by cov ering with a napkin that has been dip ped in water and wrung nearly dry. : Novelties la Fara'ltare. : A style of furniture with something 1 of the free grace and natural beauty of the rustic In Its rounded curves and r; tttt i if u - i t CO - ...3 Of t' 1 ay te so--:l cradle t: Hie jfaaeat Foaat of Tears. ; There are funny Incidents In the lift of photographer.

Cheops was the builder of the pyra- mid which bears his name, and, as if to make the structure perpetuate bjs deeds for all time to come, the; very stones and bricks of which it is com posed are stamped with his name. Cheops lived nearly 2,500 years ago, his great pyramid being an antiquity in the days when the great nations of old were In their youth, and yet we of this twentieth century .can have the satis faction of looking upon the very ring be wore so proudly upon his finger! Tbe hieroglyphics on the ring are ml nutely accurate and beautifully execut ed, tbe ring itself being of finest gold and weighing nearly an ounce. The oval signet bears the name of Cheops. which la in hieroglyphics in perfect ac cord with tbe stamp on the bricks of tbe great pyramid. This remarkable antiquity was found In a tomb at Gbl xeh.
