The IIlInols CentrnI RaIIroad.

The announcement in the Tribune of yes
terday that the Illinois Central Railroad
had succeeded in settling it's difficulties
with the bOndholders of the New Orleans,
st. Louis and Chicago Railroad, and that it
had assumed control of the property, took
nearly everybody by surprise. 1t was the
general impression that the difficulties
could not be settled very soon, and some
even feared that the Illinois Central might
lose the Sc, 600, 900 it had advanced towards
the completion of the New Orleans Road.
The appointment of Mr.. j. @. Clark to the
Vice Presidency of the Illinois Central and
his assignment as General Manager of the
New Orleans division has created a very
favorable impression, as Mr.. Clark is ex-
cellently fitted to reorganize and unite the
lines and make the New Orleans division the
most valuable of the various divisions of the
road This new addition to the Illinois
Central makes it the longest continuous line
in America except the Union Pacific. 1t
runs from New Orleans up to Sioux City,
Iowa, via the main line, and to Chicago via
| the Chicago branch. There is one thing
more TO be done to make the Illinois Central
complete and that is to secure connection
of its own between Chicago and the main
line in Iowa. At present the Chicago bust
ness consigned to and from the Iowa branch
goes via the Chicago, Burlington and
| Quincy and Chicago and iowa railroads
| The Chicago and Pacific railroad, which is
now in the hands of receiver, could easily
be made an excellent connection. The
managers of the Illinois Central will I'M
doubtedly make an effort to get hold of thiI
property if it can be had at reasonable
| figure. And as there is no probability thai
anybody else will have any special use fol
Il, the Illinois Central is likely 10 get it.
connection between the two roads in THU
city can easily be made by building thu
bridge across the river near Rush stree
bridge. The illinois Central has already I

Death Of a Priest in the Church.

The Milwaukee Sentinel of December %
says: The people of st. Stanislaus' Church,
on South Side, had scarcely reached the
porch Of the edifce, after the forenoon SER
vice yesterday, when they were surprised
and awed by the intelligence that their be-
loved spiritual adviser, from whose lips
they had Just received the word of God
and an earnest benedietion, had fallen dead
on leaving the sanctuary. The good Fran
eisoan, FranCiskes Kralozinski had
passed away in the service of his
Master, and his sweet counsel would
never more gladden. their hearts. Father
Kralcziaski, though seventy-fYe years
of age, was a vigorous preacher, and
had done good service among his people Of
the Polish nationality, since his appearance
here. He served the people of st. Hedwig's
Church, in the first ward, and the c0ngre-
gation Of st. Stanislaus, and was esteemed
by the young az well as the old, for his
kindness Of heart and his charitable dispO-
sitiOn. The remains were removed to the
rectOry of the parish, and properly disposed
for burial. Coroner Kuepper visited the
neighborhood during the afternoon, and
acquainted himself with the circumstance
connected with the death Of the priest. Il
is probable that he will waive an inquest
as the testimony Of 3 physician viii b
sufficient for record Of the cause, which, II
all likelihood, will result in . verdict o
death from disease of the heart.

CLOSING the Centennial BusinesU.

OluBA48 the CGutcuuAhA bABAAC1us
A Washington special to the Philadelphia
Pres says:
General Hawley, president of the GEN.
tennial commission, has arrived here, and
has had an interview with the President, in
which he stated the condition of the bush
ness of the exhibition and its rapid ap-
proaeh TO close So far as the commission
Is concerned the work on the ground, he
says, is completed. AS soon a. the ac-
counts are audited and the reports of sub
ordinates submitted, the commission win
prepare their general report of the exhibi.
ton to be presented TO the President,
which, it is believed, will be by the first Of
May. By this time it is expected that the
case in court will have been disposed of, and
the two millions OF issue between the board
of finance and stockholders and the United
States will be distributed pro rata to the
rigktful owners. Ii the decision is against
the Government the stockholders will re-
ceive about ninety per cent The President
expressed to General Hawley his appreoia-
ton of the labors of the commission, which,
he said, were shown In the unsurpassed sue
cess of the exhibition In point Of grandeur
of dimensions, magnifcenoe OF display and
attendance. In the brief space OF six
months the nations of the world had learned
more of the ingenuity of our people and the
resources of our county than in the pre-
Vious one hundred years of progress toward
the point of Development 60 grandly brought
out in the late exhibition. The reports Of
the foreign commissioners are already reach

the correspondence Of our diplomatic rep

Value OF Cooked Food.

A somewhat plausible explanation of the
well-known beneficial effects OF cooked food for
poultry and cattle is given in the following ex-
tract from communication in the Country
Gentleman by its intelligent Illinois correspond
dent Alter giving some details of well-known
effects be quotes as follows from an article in a
French Journal by NJ. Barral:
SIN the course of ascertaining the Compare
tive amount of nitrogen In bread crusts and
the crumb or foft part. we arrived at unex-
pected results; always that the crust is the
richel In heterogeneous matters than the crumb of
the same loaf, and that these heterogeneous mat
ters have much greater degree of solubility.
One might say that those persons who eat hard
crust in preference to the soft part, take, in
the same weight, food doubly heterogeneous,
more cassidy soluble, digestible, or assimilable,
and very probable twice as norishiDg. This ex-
plains the preference we should give to hard
baked bread over that less thoroughly done !;
why physicians recommend a pap to made of
bread crusts; why toasted bread so much better
saIisnes the appetite, and why toast water is so
graleial ana nourishing to invalds and conval-
escents. Que sees, indeed, that the loss of or
ganic matter accomplished in cooking. consists
IN the carbonaceous constituents of f1our-
starch, sugar and the like-and the result ia a
concentration of the heterogeneous matters in the
crust. 40 VIZ
1t is very important fact to be able to sta 10
that Dread crusts are more soluble in water
than the crumbs; and more important one to
be able to affirm that the nitrogen in the crust
is much more soluble than the nitrogen in the
soft or crumb. This fact proves that the cook
ing of the crust, under the double influence of
a temperature of 1000 and 1000 CeDtigrade,
1890 and 1880 Fahrenheit produced IN the
ovens and from the vapor issuing from the body
Of the loaf, transforms the gluten of the -four
into soluble substance"
Now, applying these singular facts to the
whole grain of Indian corn and the culinary
compounds of corn-meal and we see how it is
that Parched or baked corn is quite different
tning from the raw article, and why the long
boiling OF mush and the protracted cooking Of
baked Indian pudding and Boston brown
bread have their reason to be.
In he Case OF egg production, it seems baked
or parched corn is not oily more soluble-that
is more dgestable than raw corn-but il also
contains greater proportion of the ege-mak
ing substance, gluten, for the +. ason that the
baking or roasting has carbonized and dimin-
ished the non-egg-making constituents. sugar,
oil, and starch.

Peas.

Peas, among culinary vegetables, are only less
priced than strawberries among small fruits.
As they may be cultivated without much ma.
nd ~ sny ddteI t Be be The aes
sorted to by skllful kitchen gardeners, he who
is possessed of 25 feet square of land may supply
his table, occasionally, at least, with home
grown peas throughout the season.
Varying little for different soils or situa-
tons, early or middle April is the time to SOW
for this climate. Though young plants will
stand frost, yet no advantage is gained by
planting earlier: since only the more seed win
rot in the ground II, however, cold weather
sets in after planting. covering the rows lightly
with manure will effect an earlier and more
uniform germination.
If early results are desired for home use, the
pea should be given a light, rich soil; for gen.
eral market crops, it matters but little what the
soil is so that it be well-manured. In the latter
case, stalking or brushing is not usually resorted
to; in the former, except for dwarf varieties, it
Is advisable to use supports of one kind or an
other. For family use, the wrinkled varieties
are sweeter and more tender than the smooth,
but they are less hardy and of smaller size. A
pint may be considered sufficient for q row of
30 or 40 feet, and sowings may be made every
ten days to three weeks for succession.
The following notes as to new or late varie-
ties were made last summer.
