"Our key litter is one of the most Imp-trant

ometimcs be is ho rushed with w<*k that
ie has to call in an assistant. It is 110
xaggeratlon to say that he averages
torn 25 to 30 keys a day."
"But 1 would suppose," remarked a
istener, "that even a big hotel would acluire
a lotQck-ocy of keys in the course
if time."
"So it does," replied tlie manager, "if
he public would ouly let it keep 'em; but
t won't. It would astouuh anybo<]y not

Hint, at any rate, in the way I account
or so much absentmimiednHis on the
ubject. The clerk doesn't discover that
he key la gone until the chambermaid
pplies for it to dean up the room, which
probably an hour or two after the
nest has taken his departure. Thou
lothing remain# but to call in the key
itter and tell him to prepare a duplicate
a quickly an he cau.
"Formerly the hotels tried to guard
gainst this innocent kleptomania," the
oanager went on, "by haYtug their keys
oade very large and cuinbcrsomo ami
.ttaehing them to enormous metal tag*,
he idea being to render it Impossible to
tat them in one's pocket. To that end
bey were probably a success, but they
rere such an unmitigated nuisance otherrise,
and guests complained so bitterly
t the annoyance of handling them, that
bey were generally discarded. You will
till find the plan popular in the country,
owerer, and in small houses that hare

, week or so ago I dropped into a quaint '
ittle establishment where the keys were
itached to brass dinks folly as large an
essert platen and serrated at the edge 1
Ike circular raws.
"At present most of the big hotels use
, modest metal check, stamped with their
ddress and a request to forward through
be mails if accidentally carried off. All
hat is necessary is to attach a 3 cent
tamp to the tag and drop the key in the
rarest letter box. Incidentally I may
ay that about one man in 50 takes the
rouble. But, aside from the room keys
arried away by guests, a vast number of
11 kinds disappear through the mystcrius
channels to oblivion that exist in all
irge hotels. They vanish, and that's I
he end of it?keys to furniture, wardrobe

missing and have to be replaced. 1

JOLTING OVER BAD ROADS.
llic Majority of Kunm rn Show N?> lut?<eat
la IUukI Improvement.
With the same patience that thoearly
settler waited for the railroad to be
built must the advocates of uood roads
wast for juiv decided action lu be taken
for the betterment of"our public highways,
buys the Whitewater (U*u?) Jour|)&L
For tho last five years our roads have
been the topic of the pre.?s, but we fail
to see tho good effect that this should
have had on the minds of an intelligent
people, and, strange as it may seem, the
farmers aiv the very last ones with
which this matter Amis any invor.
While our city cousins have long since
protested against the slow, oncouifortable
horse car aud eomjtelled the companies
to build expensive electric lines
with palace cars, we are contented to
jolt along in cumbersome vehicles over
nearly as bad roads us those our grandfathers
traveled in early pioneer days,
and farmers who read from time to
time of the large sums of money spent
by the government in making public
improvements would vot6 against an
equal amount being expended on oar
highways.
For a proof of thii fart just see with
what reluctanco most farmers work on
tfao road, even when well paid for their
labor; better paid than they often are
for the work which they do on tha
farm, and yet a greater proof is tha
fact that in many of the towns in this
county they still oling to the old way
of working out road tuxes by allowing
a man so much for his team, plow or
shovel and giving him ten hours' story
telling.
At a rough estimate there ii between
$10,000 and $15,000 expended annually
on the roads in this county. If part of
this large ram of money was invested
in machinery need in making roods, and
then have the work done by a body of
men working under a county overseer
who had proved his ability us a road
builder, and civil engineer by parsing
a satisfactory civil service examination,
we oonld get more and better work
done. Such a man could be obtained
for a moderate salary, and the work
done would be more uniform and satisfactory
than that done by pet cverseers
who are appointed regardless of ability,
bnt because of some political poll at
town meetings.
Of conrse there are exceptions to the
general class of farmers who are working
and talking to the best of their
ability for good roads. It is to be hoped
that success will in the end crown their
efforts.
WIDE TIRE BENEFITS.
rh*7 Not Only Improve the Road, bet tic
Load Is More Kuily Drawa.
The beneficial effect of the wide tire
on dirt roads is strikingly shown in
some recent tests at tho Misnonri agri
cultural experiment station at Colombia.
A clay road badly cut into rata
by the narrow tires wty? selected for
the test as presenting conditions least
favorable to the broad tire. A number
of testa of the drufft of the narrow tire
were made in these open rots and immediately
followed by the broad tires
running in tbo same rata. The first ran
of the broad tire over the narrow tire
rata waa accompanied by an increased
draft, the second by a draft materially
lesti than the original narrow tire, the
third by a still greater decline, and in
the fonrth trip the rut was practically
obliterated and filled. The nurrow tires
were then ran over the tamo road, with
the results that the draft was lighter
than before the Lroad tires bad been
used. Alternating the brood and narrow
tires on this road for a number of times
resulted in a gradually decreased draft
In other words, the broad tires were
improving the road surface to such an
extent when run but hulf the time as to
make the draft considerably less for all
vehicle* This clearly demonstrates that
if even half the wagons used on dirt
roads had broad tires the results would
be beneficial in draft and enormously
beneficial in bettering the condition of
the roods.
In another trial, when a day road
wan so badly cat into ruts ns to be almost
impassable for light vehicles and
pleaiuro carriage*, after running the 6
inch tires over this road 12 timen the
ruts were completley filled and s, first
class bicycle path made. A carefu l reoord
of the drafts shows that the draft
was materially less than with the narrow
tires immediately before. Thus the
road would have been gradually improved
by the uBe of the broad tires at
the same time ttiat the farmer would
have been able to transport his products
over the road with greatly reduced
draft
Steel Roadway.
Secretary Wilson has given directions
to General Koy Stone, chief of the
bureau of good roads at the department
of agriculture, to construct a fample steel
roadway at the most convenient location
he can find at the Nashville exposition,
where it may be seen und studied
by the visitors who will attend the exposition
during the summer. Secretary
Wilson thinks tho steel trackway fcr
wagons is the easiest solution of the
good roads problem, particularly in the
west, where stone and gravel are scarce.
and the soil in deep and sticky.

j One of tliv most fruitful sources of
household waste and extravagance Is
tlic c(tal bin. aad tons ??f fu< 1 nre used
whi'R' a single one would give tlie
: sam<? it-suits. Opeu drafts and a rang?.'
: lull to the covers of glowing coals not
; only burn a needless amount of coal,
1 but burn dot th<> range at the same
; time. A shovelful of ?-oal on sufficient
to lightly cover the Are will aeeomj
pllsb ns much as a half sruttlefiil, ex;
eeptlng In the Increase of the coal
man's trade.
For a smail range nut eoal Is best;
for a large one, small <.>gg eoaJ. Red
ash coal makes n hotter lire, with
fewer cinders, than the white ash, and
the latt(T burns more slowly. For
these reasons an equal mixture of the
two is a wise economy. The ashes
taken from tbe fire should never De
thrown iu&o the can until they arc
sifted. The cinders thus obtained can
be used on tbe Are at times when the
greatest heat is not needed. But they
should always be added after the fresh
cool is well aglow.
A third of a cupful of kerosene with
which to saturate the kindling and
cool before putting It In the range
will facilitate the housemaid's morning
work, whether or not the Are baa
been kept overnig.it. Kerosene should
never, however, be poured directly Into
a stove, either from the cup or can.
The best way is to lay the wood on
a shovel and cover It there with the
oil, an.* then add a sprinkling to a
shovelful of coal. Many housekeepers
Insure their kitchens against accident
from this cause by leaving a part of a
cupful of oil for the servant's use and
locking the rest In tbe storeroom.
A handful of sugar will revive an
expiring Are as quickly as will kerosene,
but happy the housewife whose
maid is ignorant of the fact. This accounts
in many cases for the rapid disappearance
of the kitchen sugar supply

year tbe horse has no more new teeth,
so that the tooth method Is useless for
telling the age of u horse which is mora
than 8 years old. As soon as the set of
teeth Is complete, however, a wrinkle
begins to appear on the upper edge of
the lower eyelid, and a new wrinkle Is
added each year, so that to get at the
age of a horse over 8 years old you
must figure the teeth plus the wrinkles.

Washington, I). c.t March, 0.?The
election today of Senator Arthur P.
Gonnan, as chairman of the Democrat*
In caucu* and therewith leader of the'
senate Democrats to succeed Senator
James K. Jones, of Arkansas, i* regarded
here as a long step toward* the
reuuiou of the Democratic faction* and
a reorganization of the party along
the liueti which carried Cleveland to
the presidency with Democratic victory.
Gorman, it will be remembered, ha*
alwayw been a sound money Democrat,
although he supported the ticket when
the free silverites were on top. Senator
Jones has stood with the free silver
wing and it is believed here that
his retirement carries with it the last
of that faction's leadership in the
Democratic party. Gorman was chairman
of the national Democratic committmi

landed Cleveland in the white bouae.
With (tormau'H banner in the lead
airaiu, hope ha?i sprung anew in the
rauk and tile of Deniocrata whose reprexcitative*
are here.
With the factional lines wiped oat
there is every reason to believe Democracy
will triumph in 1004, for it is a
tteitled conviction over the cdpntry that
Democratic voters are in the majority
throughout the nation.
The enthusiastic support of the western
and southern Henatora in the
election of Gorman is a strong evidence
that the division in no more.
A significant action of the caucus
was the election of Senator Carmack,
of Tennessee, as secretary of the caucus.
Carmack has publicly proclaimed
bis advocacy of Parker for the next
party nomiuee for president, and baa
stated that be no longer looks to tbe
mouey question as an iaaae on which
tbe Demacrats can place a plank In
their platform, (^armack was formerly
a Htroug free silver Democrat
Uoraaa Hakn lpM?k.
Tbe Democratic senatorial caucus
which met at 1 o'clock today organized
by electing Senator Gorman to bis
old position as chairman of the caucus.
This is a permanent place and a?ureb
bim tbe occupancy of Democratic conference
room, tbe moat commodious
and beat located committee room in
tbe senate end of the capitol.
He made a brief speech on assuming
tbe cbalr and tbe conference then
proceeded to other bualneaa. There * Jag
waa present 2S of the .33 Democratic
senators.
Senator Gorman's nomination aa
chairman waa suggested by Senator
Hacon, and there was no opposition to
bis aelectlon. In taking tbe chair he
thanked tbe senators for tbe honor
conferred, but did not make an extended
speech. The remaining time
was devoted largely to tbe diacuaaion
Of tbe present situation In tbe senate
and the necessity for Democratic harmony
and unity of action.
There was a general feeling thai tbe
vacancies caused by tbe retirement of
the Democratic senatora from committees
which have to deal with questions
before the present called session should
lie filled, and it was decided that tbe
designation of tbe members of theae
committee* should be made by a steering
committee to be appointed by tbe
chairman of the caucus, but tbeae
selections should later be ratified by &?
the caucus.
Hon Meerera Waafed. _/
The steering commitee for
congress has numbered only aeven
members, hot Senator Gormon requested
tbat tbe number be increased to
nine, which waa the number in tbe
days of his previous cbairmanabip,
and thia increase was decided upon.
Mr. Gorman will make bis selection jp
of member* of this commettee in time
to have a meeting tomorrow, when
the question of supplying the vacancies
on the regular committee of the
senate will be taken up.
The caucus placed in the hands of
the steering committees authority to
decide for the Democrats whether
there should be a general reorganization
of the senate committees or the
mere filling of the vacancies on those
committees which will deal with preening
questions during the extra ses- /
siun. The committee is empowered
to negotiate with the Republican
steering committees with a view of
agreeing on a general reorganization.
Hut so far as there was an expression
of opinion on this point, it was favorable
to the view of leavintftbe question
of reorganization on general lines to
be determined by the Bepublican line
as they are in power. There is no
* * * -- T\
doubt, However, inai me i^nuwrmiu
steering committer will insist on
having Home ol the committees filled,
for the reason that the Democratic
party hat* lost quite heavily in
wine of the committees which are
in control of the preseut business.
They will ask, for instance, that the
vacancies on the committee on foreigu
relations be filled.
Clark Maeereda Bailey.
.Senator Bailey retired from the committee
before the adjournment of the
last congress and by unanimous consent
Senator Clark, of Montana, was
ap|?oiuted to tiie vacancy. It is expected
that the steering committee
will confirm this action and also will
name a successor to Senator llawlina
on the same committee, ft is thought
necessary to have these vacancies filled
immediately as that committee will
have to deal with the pending treaties.
They also will ask that the Democratic
vacancies on the committee on
inter-oceanic canal caused by the retirement
from the senate of Messrs..
Harris ami Turner shall be tilled. It
it* probable that they will auk that the
place* vacated by Senators Vest and
Turner on the committee of commerce
shall be lllle?i before the nomination
of Dr. ('rum to be ?rollector at the port
of Charleston is taken up by that committee.
A similar demand will probably
lie made in all other cases ill
which committees have chance of
nominations over which then- may b?j
controversy. The caucus w:ui in session
fur almost two hours.
