CHICAGO, May 27.-The unusual action OF the
Committee Of Arrangements for the National
Convention in demanding Of the local
committee on Tuesday immediate possession
of the Convention Hall in the ExpOsl-
ton Building probably has no Significance,
md vet under the circumstances, is sure to cause
comment and to be considered suspicious. In 1876
Mt Cincinnati. the building in which the National
Convention met was held by the local committee

was to assemble This year the National
Committee of Arrangements made formal demand
for the possession Of the hall on Tuesday, eight

There were some things about the appointment OF
this committee that were rather peculiar The
National Committee at Its meeting In Washing
ton last December instructed it's own Executive
Committee to select Committee of arrangements.
When the Executive Committee met for that

the Blaine people, said that he should put but one

been the Blaine candidate for the Craftsmanship Of

We have seen a great deal written and
heard considerable said about the "AIan in

"brick" in his hat, but while riding on Il
Western railroad n short time since, we
actually bchcld Il man with Il watch in his

of his hat-a plain silver watch SET in his
hat front about midway between the rim
and the crown, face outward, 80 that any

with long hair-by the way, how is it that
almost all eccentric individuals wear long

tcntion to the numerous queer looks cast
at him. 1t getting noiscd about the train
numerous persons from other cars would
pass through the coach he was in to see the
man with The watch in his hat. At last
one young gent with more assurance than
discretion vcntured to ask the peculiar
party the reason why he carried his watch
in that prominent position. The old sport
looked his qucstioner quiZzlcally in the
face and told him it was an alarm watch,
and every time il struck il hit his head and
reminded him that it was time to take his
medicine, and lemarking, "It has just

Salads,

There is hardly anything which makes
dinner more dainty and appatizing on a
cold day than a salad which appears as q
course by itself among the substantial,
somewhat greasy Winter dishes, and recalls
the tootbsomc grcenery of Summer. Let
tuce comes first, of course - not lettuce
served with rcady-made sauce Of mustard
and vinegar and oil and salt, but lettuce
dressed by tho hostess on the table or by
the waiter at the sidcboard with simple oil,
salt, vinegar and pepper. Having in your
saladbowl enough delicate selected leaves
Of lettuce for four persons, put into the
salad-spoon a reasonable pinch Of salt and
dash of pepper; fill the spoon TO running
over with The best fresh olive oil-poor oil
ruins a salad. Mix the three ingredients
in the spoon with the salad fork, pour it
about the salad. Then fill up the spoon
again with tho oil, adding few drops of
lemon to it, or q Tablespoonful of strong
vinegar and be generous with the oil. Then
pour these over the salad, and with the
spoon and fork toss lightly until the dress
ing Is thoroughly mixed with the leaves. 1t
may seem absurd to many housckcepcrs
that these particular directions should be
given, but 1t must bc said that not one wo-
man in hundred in this country knows
the simple secret OF this French dressing or
cares to make 1t available. BY adding a
little cold piclsled salmon to the lettuce, or
some sardines carefully boncd and broken
into bits, you have delicious fish salad
for luncheon 1t is too rich for dinner which
has other courses. For excellent potato
said-which is one of the best of all salads
boil some good Irish potatoes and set
them on ice to get cold Boil also q piece
of celery root--ll,t celery stalk.-.and leave
that to get cold. Cut the potatoes and
celery root up in small, rather thin slices,
add few sllrcds of fresh white onion OF
not, as you prefer, and prepare with French
dressing as above Celery salad is nicer
chopped than broken, and should be
dressed with Mayonnaiso sauce. The
MayonDaise may also be used to dress the
other salads. This is Mrs. Hcnderson'f
recipe: "Put the uncookcd yolk Of an egg
The news and herald. (Winnsboro, S.C.) 1877-1900, 1880-02-21

into cold bowl; beat it with silver fork;
then add two salt -spoonfulls of salt anil one
tablespoonful of mustard powder; work
them well minute before adding the oil :;
then mix in a little good oil, which mnst
be poured in very slowly Ga few drops at
II timc) at first, atcrna'ed occasionally with
few drops of vinegar. In proportions as
the oil is used the sauce should gain con-
sistancy. When it begins to have the ap-
pearancc of jelly, alternate few drops of
lcmon-juicc with the oil, finish the sauce by
adding very little pinch OF cayenne pepper
and one and half tcaspoonfuls of good
vinegar. BY beating the egg a minute be-
fore adding the oil, there is little danger
of the sauce curllng; yet if, by adding too
much oil at first, il should possibly curdlc,
Immediately interrupt the operation. Put
the yolk OF one or two eggs on another
plate; beat them well aud add the c,rdcd
Mayonnaisc by degrees, and finish by add
ing more oil, lcmon-juic, vinegar, salt and
cayenne according to taste. If lemons are
not at hand, many use vinegar instead.
Leave out the cayenne if YOU prefer"

a Duel with Natclitcy,

The principals in the unique affair in
Colorado were United States Senator
Spencer, Of Alabama, then quite STRIPPING,
and & L. Hall, aman of hcrculcan strength
and ovcrbcaring disposition fr>m Texas
Spencer went to Colorado from Iowa in
1889, where he had formerly been clerk of
the State Senate, and he claimed and now
claims to be the discovcrcr Of silver in that
State. This, az Il matter of fact was the
cause Of the proposed duel, which was
known among the settlers rs the "TOma-
hawk Duel" The story going the rounds
now is to the effect that after the men and
their seconds had reached the fighting
ground Hall received letter from his
mother stating Il happy meeting with
Spenccrs mother, and that then and there
the second passed the letter to Spencer, and
the two combatants shook hands and quit.
This statement is entirely at variance with
the facts. Halls mother and Spcnccr's
never met each Othcr--thc former lived in
Texas, the latter in Jefferson county, n.
\. ~ gentleman highly connected in Mobile
city and residing there and who was with
Spencer i'll this difficulty, as well as through
the late war with him aS an officer of the
lst Alabama Loyal Cavalry, gives in sub
stance the following details OF The singular
occurrence: AS stated, the contention was
rs to who really discovered silver in Co.
dorado, the discovery being known then as
tho "Quandary lodc.o AT public meet
ing the lie was passed, and Spencer being
the challenged party, choose hatchcts as
the weapons, knowing Hall 10 be Il superior
shot, as also muclr superior in strength and
stature. That the two men were in earnest
ls fully proven, as Mr.. Spcncer's friend
to-day has the will he made on the night
before the duel was TO take place. The
conditionso of the duel were that they should
stand ten feet apart, and at the word
begin the contest III Il kind Of ego as you
please" way. The location of the battle
was in the "Bluc River district, "ncar Brc-
ckcnridgc, and the time fixed upon was
sunrise. When Hall discovered; that the
STRIPPING meant fight, there was some
weakening observable. lie raised the OBJ
lection that the halchct was barbarous
weapon, to which Spencer replied that the
practice of ducling was barbarous one at
best and he intended to make this fight ns
barbarous as possible. Spcnccr's practice
with the hatchct had made him an expert
i'll its use, he being able to sink it into Il
saplng of six inches in diameter with un-
crring aim at ten PAGES. Ills plan of bnttlc
was to await Halls attack, and if the latter
threw his hatchct he was to attempt to
dodge it, and if successful close in on Hall :;
but If tho latter adopted the tactics laid out
by Spencer, then he would rely upon his
skill in throwing the weapon. 1t was due
to the objection made by Hall, on the score
of tho halchct being barbarous weapon,
that the duel was abandoned by Hall,
who soon after migrated from those parts.
