The scheme of unification is splendidly carried out, not only around th> body of the bowl, but the rim conforms to the work of the outer surface, made in ex- quisite filigree of crusted siiver. The salver, a perfect bit of work, Is designed in com- plete harmony with the bowl. The ladle, too, Is of chaste design. Upon the bowl. in cld’ English text, will be engraved: GENERAL AND MRS JOHUN R. BROOKE, From OMAHA FRIENDS.

Supreme Court Appurently Taking No In- terest at Present In the Income Tax. WASHINGTON, May 10.—The supreme court premises are as completely’ deserted by the members of the court and public as though the income tax had never come up to recelve the attention of the supreme court and attract visitors, It hal been supposed | that the court would go into immediate con- suitation, after the conclusion of the argu- ment in the case, but if there has been any consultation up to date, it has not been held in the conference room at |I|s capitol. Justice Jackson's position,*while a matter of much speculative interest at this time, is apparently known to no one but himself, un- less he has found occasion within the past day or two to acquaint some of his fellow members of the court with his views Thera is little doubt entertained but that the court’'s decision be announced next Monday week, and there can be no question of the general expectation in Washington that it will be antagonistic to the law as a whole, though nothing in the nature of a definite fact as to the standing of members of the deciling tribunal is advanced. przgein: Every Mine in Ohio Idle.

Peters, a storekeeper of the state penitentiary, and contains two counts. One charge is that the governor signe a voucher authorizing the auditor of the state to Issue a warrant for $166 to J. L. Bristow, and the other that he signed a voucher author- lzing a warrant in favor of Charles Hull for $76, and the vouchers both set forth that they were for services rendered to the state. Peters alleges that the amounts named were drawn out of the state treasury and have not been covered back; that they were so drawn on false pretenses, and that it is the duty of the officers of the law to make a thorough investigation of the case and If Governor Morrill should be guilty he should be pun- ished.

This Young Lady Knew How to Gain Her Polut with n Sensitive Ofcial, The session of the legislature in every state brings to the capitol a retinue of appli- cants for every position, from clerk of the senate to assistant fireman. This year there has been an unusually large number of people out of work. In one of the western drouth- stricken states, where the number of em- ployes for the sixty days' session has been limited by law to 200, there were no less than 2,500 needy applicants. The day before the opening of the session, relates the New York Herald, a shy girl knocked at the door of the attorney general's office. “Is the atttorney general timidl. in?" she asked sald a clerk. “He will see you when he gets through with this long line of Job hunters. Just have a seat. In the numerous chairs, on the office lounge and standing, were twenty or more waiting for a turn to press some claim for a position. The attorney general was rather a gruft looking man, and he dismissed each with the remark: I can't do anything for you. Sorry, you know, but there are hundreds of applicants, and each officer, every legislator, has a dozen begging for each position.” When the timid girl's turn came she handed the impatient looking officer a letter. She said nothing, she hardly looked into his face. “I'm sorry, Miss C., that I can do nothing for you. It was foolish for you to come here expecting to get work. I'd be glad to help you if I could, but, you see, it's this way, I have no influence to get you a position. 1 am very—" “Weo were speaking of that at home, but 1 thought it would do no harm to see you,” she interrupted. “‘And we were saying what a pity it was that you had lost your influ- ence.” The state cfiiclal winced. something hurt him. “Brown,” he sald, turning to his deputy with unnecessary abruptness, “this young lady is to have a position in the enrolling de- partment. See that there is a place for her it you have to muzzle every legislator in the buliding.” He looked as if e Judged by an Expert, Chicago Tribune: “My friend,” said the defected pllgrim, “do you ever extend a helping hand to a fellow being who suffers from the gnawing tooth o® famine?'" “I do,” sald Fellaire—formerly Rusty Rufus—stopping short and scrutinizing him, “but you haven't the genteel melancholy of a nob In reduced circumstances, and you're a little too fresh for a deserving beginner. him a 10-cent plece, “I think you'd better find some light job and go to work.
