Morrison, after the latter had purchas-
ed several sirloin pieces, "Why don't
you buy rs many sirloin steaks as you
used tor" Morrison replied, "1'll tell
you the reeson. 1 cut off the sirloin
roasting pieces small steak, which
serves my pilots and single customers
best; and as it is now cold weather l
wish to have these roasting pieces
cut up as / directed every morning"
After this the butcher had Mr.. Morri.
sons steaks cut up every day, with the
order to "cut steaks for the porter
house." hence the sirloin order was
changed into "cut the porter house
steaks" In a few years the other but
chers had learned TO cut ''porter house"
steaks, and gradually the name spread
all over the United States, and this
peculiar steak is now to be found in all
large cities but nowhere else in Its
granduer as it is found IN New York
markets.

THE kENNEY SCANDAL.-It certainly
must be relief to respectable families
who take the Epery Epeaing to learn that
the mess Of putrescent scandal which
has been flowing through that journal
for the past four or five days is about to
cease. The proprietors of that paper
are of various churches. Had either of
them been Nethodists we doubt whether
this mass of corruption tending to no
good, would have been permitted to have
appeared here to the disgrace of the COM
munity. Certainly Messrs. Bates and Nc
Comb would not have permitted it to / e
read in their families. But it happens
that Kenney is Methodist and not a
Unitarian or Episcopalian or Presbyte-
rian, and the dish of filthy trash is serv-
ed up daily until it becomes a stencil as
bad as the late Beecher-Tilton affair.
Although Kenney should be reduced
from his position and the church and
morality vindicated from reproach, to
the outside world, this affair ought to be
g very trihng matter.

Porter House Steak,

IL may be interesting to know that

Which Is only known to New Workers.
had It's origin siXty-one years ago in
New ork, the very year that General
jackson whipped the British troops
at New Orleans. To ell good eaters
this fact will be of more importance
than the discovery of America bv
Christopher Columbus. The manner
of.lts origin is wcll-authenticated and Is
as follows
Martin Morrison was the proprietor,

Kept porter house, located and known
at that period as No. 1927 Pearl street,

opened aporter house at No. .43 Cherry

hour that they might call, as they
were olten detained on shipboard un-

or a "blte" of "bread and cheese -
some OF thest places, among which
was Morrlson's, prepared hot meal of
one or two dishes, and Morrison's was
noted for its celebrated broiled beef.
steaks. One day, in 1914, Morrison
mad an unusual call for steaks. and he
mad cooked his last steak, when an old
lrlehd o1 the house, but withal a yery
iough ana blunt pilot, made him a late
Yisit' poth hungry and thirsty, having
peen seven hours without food. MOI
caring lot the salt junk aboard of the
Vessel which he had piloted in, he con.
cIuded 10 wait until he got ashore that
ne might cast his anchor at Morrison's
"here he could enjoy his hot steak and
mug OF porter. In his blunt and honest
language the pilot gave his usual order.
Morrlson had nothing left but his fam.
liy dinner for the next day, which con.
sisted of sirloin roasting piece. which
he offered to cut from if the old nilot
would have it. Eyes, nv hearty anv.

After this the pilots com panions insis-

soon discovered that those steaks were
more suitable in size to dish up for
single individuals, and he ever after
purchased his sirloin roasting pieces,
from which he cut off these small
steaks, as they were called, for the
large sirloin steaks, were becoming
less in demand. The butcher with

Erery Erening and the Herald have en-
tered into discussion in which the cha
racter and fitness of Col. H. B. N.cIntire
for Chief Engineer of the Water Depart
ment of this city forms the subject mat
ter. As the work on the new reservoir
has now progressed so far that it must
be completed as laid out, and there will
be but short time until frost and win
ter puts stop to it until next spring, it
does not matter so much who is elected
Chef Engineer. But it would seem that
the Council would hardly fail to choose a
man of experience and skill as a civil en-
gineer when such an one is to be found
ready to take the office. The services of
such man might prove immensely val
liable. We allude to Mr.. Daniel Farra.
