United States Supreme Court
217 U.S. 340
Lord v. United States
Argued: April 20, 1910. --- Decided: May 2, 1910
This statement of the controlling facts is quite sufficient to show that the judgment below was right. We perceive no ground whatever for a judgment against the United States. Nothing done under the act of March 2d, 1901, created any obligation upon the part of the Secretary of Agriculture, as representing the United States, to proceed under the plans made by the appellants for the construction of the building referred to in that act. The 'programme' of competition, devised under that act by the Architect of the Treasury, under the direction of the Secretary, contemplated the payment of $350 to each of the ten competing architects, in full compensation for their services in preparing and submitting designs. That amount was paid to the appellants. And they were expressly informed by the above act that the plans and recommendations of the Secretary were to be transmitted to Congress. Besides, the programme of competition explicitly stated that the act did not provide for a building, but only for disigns to be approved by Congress. The Secretary was without authority under the act of 1901 to make any binding contract for the erection of the proposed building; and Congress, it seems, took no action in reference to the designs prepared by the appellants under that act. Nothing more was done by either side until Congress, by the act of February 9th, 1903, made independent provisions for the erection of a building for the use of the Department of Agriculture, at a cost not exceeding $1,500,000. But no contract was made under that act with the appellants. On the contrary, the minds of the parties never met as to the terms of any contract in execution of the provisions of the act of February 9th, 1903. The appellants declined to accept the contract prepared and submitted by the Department. Clearly, the appellants were not entitled, simply because of the acceptance of their plans, prepared under the act of 1901, to construct the building provided for in the separate, independent act of February 9th, 1903; and as no contract was made with them by the Secretary under the latter act, they have no cause of action against the United States.
Judgment affirmed.

Ye Commons Ressolved into a Commyttee of Ye Whole Hovse.
[Friday, April 27, 1849.]
TO the Houſe of Commons, where an Iriſh Debate on the Rate-in-Aid Bill, which did make me drowſy. The Houſe in Committee; the Iriſh Members moving all Sorts of frivolous Amendments, abuſing the Government, and quarrelling among themſelves. Sir H. Barron did accuſe Mr. Reynolds of being ready to Vote away other People's Money becauſe he had none of his own, and Mr. Reynolds did ſay that he never ſaw fuch Miſery as on Sir H. Barron's Eſtate; whereupon Sir H. Barron up in a Rage, and did deny the Fact with vehement Geſtures, flouriſhing his Fiſts gallantly. Then Mr. Reynolds did fall foul of Mr. Bateson, one that had been a Captain, for queſtioning the Chancellor of the Exchequer concerning young Reynolds's Place; and did make a Joke upon Mr. Bateson's Muſtachios: whereat much Laughter. But a ſmall Joke do go a great Way in the Houſe of Commons. Before the Debate, Lord John Russell marching up one of the ſide Galleries, and taking the Meaſure of the Houſe through his Eye-Glaſs: a ſharp delicate little Man, with a mild Voice, but do carry himſelf vtately. Methought his Obſervations amuſed him, for he ſmirked a little, and looked as if he knew the Cuſtomers he had to deal with. But to ſee him and the Home Secretary and the Chancellor of the Exchequer trying to perſuade the ​Iriſh Members not to preſs their ridiculous Motions to a Diviſion, wheedling and coaxing them, as (railing and civil as Haberdaſhers! The Bill to be reported to-morrow; and then the Houſe to a little ordinary Bufineſs; and Mr. Horsman's Bill poſtponed, through the Iriſh cavilling and squabbling. Then a Debate on naming the Committee on Savings Banks; and made an Iriſh Queſtion too; the Diſpute how many Iriſh Members were to ſerve on the Committee: and the End, the Naming of the Committee delayed. This Way of doing Buſineſs in the Houſe of Commons makes it no Wonder how little is done; and the chief Cauſe is the Iriſh Members haranguing upon Nothing and quarrelling about Straws, which do ſeem to me a childiſh and ſpiteful Attempt to give Trouble to Government. I did hope to hear a Speech from Sir Robert Peel, but was diſappointed, which did vex me; but heard a few Words from Colonel Sibthorp, which made mighty Laughter, and were as ſenſible as any Thing I heard all the Evening: and the Colonel in a brave Waiſtcoat, with his droll figure, did divert me much. Laſt of all, a Settlement of the Smithfield Committee: and I do wonder this became not an Irivh Matter too. The Houſe adjourning at half-paſt One in the Morning; and to ſee the Number of Members lying aſleep on the Gallery Benches! All this While Nothing whatever done of more Importance than Pariſh Buſineſs at a Veſtry. I off to Supper in the Haymarket on pickled Salmon and Stout, coſt me 1s. 6d., and then Home and to Bed, paſt 1 o'Clock, and my Wife do ſay that the Houſe of Commons keep worſe Hours than any Tavern in Town.

Ye Fashonable Worlde takynge its Exercise in Hyde Parke.
[Tuesday, March 17th, 1849.]
THIS Day to the Ring in Hyde Park for a Walk to get me an Appetite, and look at the fine Folks and People of Faſhion riding in their Carriages, which it do much delight me to behold. But, good Lack! what a ſtrange Notion of the Pleaſure of a Drive; with the Carriages in a cloſe Line jammed all together, and ſometimes coming to a dead Stop like the Omnibuſes in Fleet Street of an Afternoon, and ſeldom moving on faſter than Mourning Coaches at a Funeral. Did ſee many mighty pretty young Ladies; and one ſitting in a Landau with a Coronet on the Panel, upon whom I did ſmile, but perceiving that ſhe did turn up her Nose at me, I did look glum; howbeit, another comely Damſel that I ſmiled at did bluſh and ſimper, which gave me Joy. It was as good as a Play to watch the young Guardſmen, with their Tufts and Muſtaches, riding ſtraight-legged, and them and the other Bucks taking off their Hats and kiſſing their Hands to the charming Belles as they paſſed them by. But it was rarer ſtill to behold a Snob that ſtrove to do the ſame Sort of Thing, and did get laughed at for his Pains. Then what Sport to obſerve the fat Coachmen, in their Wigs, ſomething like Biſhops', sitting on their Boxes, and the Footmen behind with their parti-coloured Liveries of drab and green, and red and yellow Pluſh, and gold-laced Hats, Shoulderknots and Cockades, bearing their Canes, ​and their Noſes to the Sky, holding their Heads as high as Peacocks for Pride in their Frippery and plump Calves! Theſe Fellows are as fine as Court Cards, and full as Ridiculous, and they do divert me in the Extreme : only their bepowdered Pates do offend me, for I think the Faſhion an uncleanly one; and after all, I wonder how their Maſters and Miſtreſſes can delight in dreſſing them out ſo much like Mountebanks. Did note divers Noble Lords and Gentlemen of the Houſe of Commons whom I did know either by Sight or from the Caricatures in the Shop-Windows. From four to five o'Clock around the Ring and up and down by the Serpentine to make my Obſervations. Methought how jolly these fine People muſt be, and how happy they looked compared to a Beggar Boy whom I did ſpy ſquatting on the Graſs: yet no Doubt many of them have Troubles enough, and ſome may be even ſhort of Caſh to pay for their Vanities. After that, to the Corner, by the Powder Magazine, nigh to Kenfington Gardens, to ſee the Company alight from their Carriages, and take an Inventory of the Ladies' Dreſſes, whereof to furniſh an Account to my Wife. Then away Home at half-paſt Five, and ſo to Dinner off a Shoulder of Mutton and Onion-Sauce, which my Wife doth make exceeding Well, and my Dinner did content me much; and thereupon I did promiſe my Wife a new Bonnet, the Like whereof I had ſeen on a Counteſs in the Park, and ſo both in great Good Humour, and very loving all the Evening.
# Made-Over Dishes/Cooked Fish

COOKED FISH
Canapés
Cold boiled fish makes excellent canapés. To each half pint of fish allow six squares of toasted bread. If you have any cold boiled potatoes left over, add milk to them, make them hot and put them into a pastry bag. Decorate the edge of the toast with these mashed potatoes, using a small star tube; put them back in the oven until light brown. Make the fish into a creamed fish. Rub the butter and flour together, add a half pint of milk, add the fish and a palatable seasoning of salt and pepper. Dish the centers on top of the toast with this creamed fish and send at once to the table. A very little fish here makes a good showing, and is one of the nicest of the hot canapés.
Baked Sardines
After sardines have once been opened it is best to remove them from the can and make them into some dish for the next meal. They may be broiled and served on toast, or made with bread crumbs into sardine balls and fried, or baked. To bake them, stir the oil from the can into a half cupful of water, add a teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce, a half teaspoonful of salt and a dash of pepper. Put the fish into a baking pan, run them into the oven until very hot, then dish them, baste them with the sauce and send them at once to the table.
Fish Croquettes
Any cold boiled fish that is left over may be made into croquettes. To each cupful of the cold fish allow one level tablespoonful of butter, two level tablespoonfuls of flour and a half cupful of milk. Rub the butter and flour together, add the milk; when boiling take from the fire. Add to the fish a level teaspoonful of salt, a dash of black pepper, a tablespoonful of chopped parsley and a few drops of onion juice; mix this carefully with the paste and turn out to cool. When cold, form into small cylinders, dip in beaten egg and fry in deep hot fat.
Fish à la Crême
One pint of cold boiled fish, mixed with a half pint of white sauce. Turn this into a baking dish and brown. Or when the two are carefully heated together, serve in either ramekin dishes or in a border of browned mashed potatoes.
# Made-Over Dishes/Cheese

CHEESE
The shells of Edam, or pine-apple cheese, after all the available cheese has been scooped out, will be used as a baking dish for stewed spaghetti or macaroni or rice. If care is taken, one shell may be used for three or four bakings. Boil the macaroni in plain water until tender; then drain, cut it into small pieces and add it to cream sauce. Pour this into the cheese shell, stand the shell on a piece of oiled paper in a baking pan and run into a moderate oven for fifteen or twenty minutes. Lift the shell carefully, put it on to a heated dish, and send at once to the table. After the macaroni has been taken out, the shell will be cleaned and put aside in a cold place for the next baking. There is just enough cheese imparted by the toasting of this shell to give ah agreeable flavor to the macaroni. Plain boiled rice may be heaped into the shells and steamed, or baked in the oven for a few moments.
Any scraps or bits of common cheese, when too hard and dry to serve on the table should be grated, put into a jar and put aside for cheese balls to serve with lettuce, cheese soufflé, for baked macaroni, or spaghetti, or for croquettes, cheese sauce, or Duchess soup.
Cheese Soufflé
Put one cup of stale bread crumbs with a gill of milk over the fire for just a moment; take from the fire, add the yolks of three eggs, six tablespoonfuls of grated cheese, a half teaspoonful of salt and a dash of red pepper; stir in the well-beaten whites of the eggs; put into individual baking dishes; bake in a quick oven about eight minutes and send at once to the table.
Cheese Balls
Grate or chop sufficient common cheese to make a half pint; add to it one pint of stale bread crumbs, a half teaspoonful of salt, a dash of red pepper and the whites of two eggs slightly beaten. Form these into small balls the size of an English walnut; dip in egg and then in bread crumbs and fry in smoking hot fat. These may also be made into small cylinder-shaped croquettes, and served with cream sauce.
Duchess Soup
Put two tablespoonfuls of butter and a sliced onion in a saucepan; cook until the onion is soft and yellow; add to this two tablespoonfuls of flour, mix, and then add one quart of milk, a level teaspoonful of salt and a palatable seasoning of red pepper. Add six tablespoonfuls of grated cheese; stir in a double boiler until it is smoking hot; press through a fine sieve; reheat and send at once to the table.
Cheese Pudding
Toast slices of stale bread until a golden brown and crisp to the center. This is best done in the oven. Put a layer of this toasted bread in the bottom of a baking dish; put over a quarter of a cup of grated or chopped cheese, sprinkle with salt and red pepper; then another layer of bread, another of cheese and the last of bread. Pour over sufficient milk to moisten the bread; bake in a quick oven fifteen minutes, and serve at once.
# Made-Over Dishes/Game

GAME
Bits of cold broiled or roasted game may be chopped very fine, rubbed to a smooth paste either in a bowl or mortar. To each half pint of this mixture allow two tablespoonfuls of brown sauce thoroughly rubbed with the game, and the unbeaten white of one egg; press the whole mixture through an ordinary flour sieve; then stir in the well-beaten whites of two eggs, four mushrooms chopped almost to a powder, and a seasoning of salt and pepper. Fill this into little greased molds or cups; the cups may be garnished with chopped truffle or mushrooms, or served plain. Fill in the mixture, stand the cups in a baking pan half filled with boiling water; cook in a moderate oven twenty minutes. The little bomb-shaped molds are the better sort to use for these. Serve with brown sauce either plain or flavored with mushrooms.
# Made-Over Dishes/Preface

PREFACE
Wise forethought, which means economy, stands as the first of domestic duties. Poverty in no way affects skill in the preparation of food. The object of cooking is to draw out the proper flavor of each individual ingredient used in the preparation of a dish, and render it more easy of digestion. Admirable flavorings are given by the little leftovers of vegetables that too often find their way into the garbage bucket.
Economical marketing does not mean the purchase of inferior articles at a cheap price, but of a small quantity of the best materials found in the market; these materials to be wisely and economically used. Small quantity and no waste, just enough and not a piece too much, is a good rule to remember. In roasts and steaks, however, there will be, in spite of careful buying, bits left over, that, if economically used, may be converted into palatable, sightly and wholesome dishes for the next day's lunch or supper.
Never purchase the so-called tender meat for stews, Hamburg steaks or soups; nor should you purchase a round or shoulder steak for broiling, nor an old chicken for roasting. Select a fowl for a fricassee, a chicken for roasting, and a so-called spring chicken for broiling. Each has its own individual price and place.
Save for stock, every bone, whether beef, mutton, poultry or game, as well as all the juices that are left in the meat carving dishes on the table, and the water in which meats are boiled and in which certain vegetables are boiled. Into this storehouse--for such a stock pot is--will go also the tough ends from the rib roasts, which would become tasteless and dry if roasted; the bits that are taken from the French chops; the bone that is left on the plate from the sirloin steak; and every piece of the carcass left on the general carving plate of all sorts of game and poultry. After the meat has been taken from the roast, these bones will also be used.
# Made-Over Dishes/Salads

SALADS
There comes a time during the week, even in careful housekeeping, when there is an accumulation of little things, a few olives, a slice or two of beet, perhaps two or three pieces of cooked carrot, a cold potato, a tiny little bit of cold fish, or cold meats, and not more than a tablespoonful or two of aspic jelly; these may all be utilized in a
Russian Salad
Chop or cut carefully the vegetables; mix together, add two or three tablespoonfuls of toasted piñon nuts, and the meat and fish; dish on lettuce leaves, or, if you have tomatoes, peel and take out the centers, and fill the salad into the tomatoes. Serve with French or mayonnaise dressing; garnish with blocks of aspic jelly.
# Mahatma Gandhi, his life, writings and speeches/The Duties of British Citizenship

THE DUTIES OF BRITISH CITIZENSHIP
I consider myself a lover of the British Empire, a citizen (though voteless) of the Transvaal, prepared to take my full share in promoting the general well-being of the country. And I claim it to be perfectly honourable and consistent with the above profession to advise my countrymen not to submit to the Asiatic Act, as being derogatory to their manhood and offensive to their religion. And I claim, too, that the method of passive resistance adopted to combat the mischief is the clearest and safest, because, if the cause is not true, it is the resisters, and they alone who suffer. I am perfectly aware of the danger to good government, in a country inhabited by many races unequally developed, in an honest citizen advising resistance to a law of the land. But I refuse to believe in the infallibility of legislators, I do believe that they are not always guided by generous or even just sentiments in their dealings with unrepresented classes. I venture to say that, ​if passive resistance is generally accepted, it will once and for ever avoid the contingency of a terrible death-struggle and bloodshed in the event (not impossible) of the natives being exasperated by a stupid mistake of our legislators.
It has been said that those who do not like the law may leave the country. This is all very well spoken from a cushioned chair, but it is neither possible nor becoming for men to leave their homes because they do not subscribe to certain laws enacted against them. The inlanders of the Boer regime complained of harsh laws; they, too, were told that if they did not like them they could retire from the country. Are Indians, who are fighting for their self-respect, to slink away from the country for fear of suffering imprisonment or worse? If I could help it, nothing would remove Indians from the country save brute force. It is no part of a citizen's duty to pay blind obedience to the laws imposed on him. And if my countrymen believe in God and the existence of the soul, then, while they may admit that their bodies belong to the state to be imprisoned and deported, their minds, their wills, and ​their souls must ever remain free like the birds of the air, and are beyond the reach of the swiftest arrow. — (Indian Opinion).
