No BAKED BEANS SUNDAY. - The
New York Tribune of April lst has the
following: A most frightful desecration
of the New England Sabbath occurred
at Chicopee, Mass, last week. The
State Constables, not appearing to COM
prehend the religious duty Of eating
baked beans on the Sabbath, actually
went about in the morning and closed
all the bakeries, with the beans intend
ed for many a domestic dinner left in
the ovens! The moral lesson of the
morning sermon, if it happened to be
against profane swearing, must have
been, we fancy, strangely disregarded
by the head of many hungry family.
There was an equal scarcity of brown
bread. and altogether we suspect that
the Sabbath in Chicopee, on that occa-
sion, was hardly a sweet day of rest.

The New York Times, which ought
to be unimpeachable authority in such
matters, says that the thirteen appro-
priation bills passed by the last Con-
gress aggregate $195, .334; while
last year the appropriation amounted
to only S17O,27S,564. The Times
also says that So, 100000 of the $685.
100000 excess is composed of sundry
items " struck from last years list for
political effect" and replaced now, we
presume, on account of political neces
Rity. Where the remaining 100000
come from, the Times does not inform
us, but in view of the many professions
of retrenchment and reform, made by
the radical party, this information would
be exceedingly interesting to taxpayers.

YEAST FOR HoT WEATHER. The
subjoined recipe for yeast, adapted to
hot weather or hot climates, is given in
Morgan's Trade Journal: Boil two
ounces of the best hops, in four quarts
of water, for half an hour; strain it
and let the liquor cool down to a new
milk warmth. Then put in a small
handful of salt and half pound of su-
gar lbrown), beat up one pound of the
best -four with the liquor,and mix up all
well together. The third day add three
pounds of potatoes boiled and mashed,
and let it stand till the next day, then
strain and it is ready for use. Stir fre-
quently while making, and keep near a
fire. Before using stir well. 1t will
keep two or three months in a warm
place. This yeast is very strong;
half the usual quantity necess Try for
baking is sufficient.

Yaquina Bay Correspondence.
Elk Cry, April I6, lS1

EDITOR DEMOCRAT:
The news from the lava beds, which,
thanks to your enterprise, reached us on
the 18th inst, was indeed startling.
Thus the comical farce 80 enacted by
the Peace Commission has at last ended
in tragedy. ThisAdministration has long
held gentle dallianee with murderers
whose hands were yet reeking with the
blood of their victims. The wall of
widow and orphan has been wasted on
empty air, less cold than the hearts of
those who should avenge and protect.
Conyicts and unprincipled spectators
have thrown dust into the eyes of the
Administration, who seemed willing to
be blinded. This little band of Dig
gers has been treated with more pune
tillious and excessive courtesy than
would have been allowed, had we been
engaged in honorable warfare with Eng
land or France. But now we have the
enemy on the hip. They have most
treacherously violated international law.
No nation on earth could refuse to enter
into an alliance defensive against the
Modoc Republic.
Apropos to Indian affairs, things are
encouraging on the Siletz. A great
many Indians of both sexes were lately
converted there. A good many Indian
men, and some women have recently
started for Corvallis, that they may en-
joy your superior advantages for Chris
tian worship, especially evening prayer
meetings. Let me beseech especially
the youth of your city to take these
people (who are seeking truth by the
hand, water their souls with the juice
of salvation, wrestle with them till the
third hour, if need be. When you go
to prayer meeting, fill your pockets with
ham sandwiches, and distribute among
them. These are better than tracts. If
you want to convert an Indian, convict
him through his stomach fill him with
grub. There is a sympathetic chord
running from the gastric juices to the
heart.
The weather here is delightful. Trout
and the good things of life generally
are abundant. Money don't bother.
and we exist in kind of atmosphere

zephyrs from the sea and the balm of

The Pope is reported to be
very feeble. Should he live
until May, he will be eighty
one years of age, according TO
the ordinary statements. 1t
has been alleged, however,
that 1890, instead 1892, was
the real date of his birth. II
this is true, he is far advanced
in his eighty third year. He
has reigned longer than any
Pope, not only having seen,
but surpassed the years Of
Peter, and has experienced
troubles enough 10 have shat
tered any but the strongest
constitution. About a year
ago he lost a brother who was
we'll up in the nineties, but
the nonagenarian never had
half as many vexatlons as the
Pope. Should the latter die,
it will be interesting TO see
whether the election of a sue
cessor as thoroughly subservi-
ent to the Jesuits will be al
lowed by the political powers
of the continent.

A mass meeting of ladies
was held at st. Louis, April 6,
to consider the Social Evil
law in that city, and to devise
means for its repeal. Quite
a number of prominent ladies
were present, and two or three
clergymen. Fifteen letters was
read from several ministers of
the Gospel and physicians, TAX
ing strong grounds against the
law. Two or three speeches
were made by gentlemen pres
ent including one by Mayor
Brown, who regretted that the
discussion was confined to one
side of the question, as there
were many interesting and
important facts involved in the
case and which could be said
on both sides. Resolutions
were adopted declaring against
any compromise with vice and
directing the repeal OF the Or
dinance.
The police at a late hour
raidod the keno houses Of the
city, captured scme sixty-five
players and seized the ap
paratus of the various houses
visited.
