Novel Arrests.

The Labor Lyceum association, COM

friends in the usual Sunday exercises at
their hall, ON Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn,
and gathering in ive-cent pieces to aid in
finishing the structure, when suddenly the
police appeared and stopped further pro-

Egg-Eating Chinese.
Philadelphia Record.


The Cinnamon who live in Pkil:delphia
and adjoining cities have developed an
enormous appetite for eggs. and the old
idea that the average Acknowledged laundry
man from the Celestial empire lives on
sixteen grains of rice per day, assisted
down their lhroats with little sticks, must
be abandoned, at least so far as those who
live here are concerned. Ii is only when
eggs are sky high that they resort to the
diet of Hong Kong and Pekin. The Phil
sdeiphia Ch;naman sucks the "white" and
nses the yolk as q dessert. 1t is a difficult
matter to find out why the Celestials have
taken to poultry diet in prefer nee to
any other, but it is fact that they are
great egg eaters. and the grocers say that a
colony of ten Cinnamon frequently buy
eighty eggs PEI day. and often live on moth
ing else for weeks An Lee, who formerly
lived in Philsdelphia. and his assistant in
the laundry business in West Chester have
been known to eat 140 eggs in a week, an
average of seventeen a day. The China.
men say that eggs at fifteen and twenty
cents a dozen are cheaper than anything
else they can buy, and almost as cheap as
rice, one OF them adding, 'muchee bettee"

Z Busy Season.


There has been no buaieri season than the
present within tho past yaar among farmer,
or indeed among any class OF people. Since
the rains everything and everybody seems
full Of life and energy, and not only life and
energy but of good cheer and hope for the
future. The farmers who were caught out
with their hay or grain are as busy IS they
can b. in saving what thsy can. I. is with
them ssYe what VS. can. and make the best of
q bad Job. Those who were all ready for the
rsin, and who had their crops all secured. are
also buy in cleaning cut their barr-yard of
manure, aud spreading it over the sink holes
and sikAli sposs in their fields, and la
pusting thsir slmmer-fallowed grEin-fields in
order. The vine-growers have all met with
greater or less LOSSES. Those who were
more Interested in wine grapes will feel the
loss the least, though their losses will proys
to be considerable. The sbrinkage eyea ON
wine grapes will prove from Is to 20 per
cent, while those who were engaged in max
log rsi5ins will lose all the way from 80 to IS
per cent Some large isin.makers say they
will not be able TO save one-6fth of their
crops. But among those on whom the losses
fall hesylest and among those who lost moth
ing the universal expression is, " We are vsry
busy" Labor is scsre-more scarce than a.
this season of the year for years back. All
can End labor at something; none need be

UYDIsPUTsD MERIT. The great success of
the Royal Baking Powder is due to the ex-
treme care exercised by is manufacturers to
make it entirely pure, unif ,rm In quality.
and of the highest leavening power. All the
scientific knowledge, care and skill attained
by twenty years practical experience, are
contributed toward this end. and no pharma-
ceutical preparation can be dispensed with
greater accuracy, precision and exactness.
Every article used is absolutely pure. A
number of chemists ara employed to test the
strength of each Ingredient so that its exact
power and effect in combination with its CO.
ingredients is definitely known. Nothing is
trusted to chance, and no person is employed
in tie preparation of the materials used or the
manufacture of the powder, whe is not an ex-
pert in his particular branch of the business.
As a consequence the Royal Baking Powder
is Of thu highest grade of excellence, always
pure, wholesome and uniform in quality.
Each box is exactly like every other, and
will retain its powers snd produces the same
and the highest lsavening effect in any
climate az any time. The Government
chemists. after having analysed all tie
principal brands 10 the market, in their re-
port placed the Royal Baking Powder at the
head of the list for strength, purity and
wholesomeness, and thousands of tests all
over the country have further demonstrated
the fact that its qualities are in every respect
uurivaled,

A MARBLEEEAD LOG.

One of the delights OF our expedition to
Marblehead writes a correspondent of a
Boston paper) was an experience with a
dog. a gentleman living about half a mile
from the beach came down to see what the
party had to eat, and brought with him a
sixty-pound bulldog. 1t seemed to be a
good. natured beast and frolicked plsyfully
during the day. About o'clock the gen.
tleman went home, and everybody sup
posed the dog went with him. We found,
however, that he had not. The day being
warm, the entire party had taken off their
coats and hung them in the garnet of a lit.
tie shanty where the cooking was done.
As evening came it grew cooler. The
breeze came off the water as the sun went
down, and we concluded to put our coats
on. We quietly slid into the shanty and
started up the steep, narrow and rlckety
stairs. at the top We found the dog.
Furthermore, we found that he objected to
our coming up. In the dim light we could
see blood in his eye. We went back with
out our coat. Presently the chief of the
fire department went in to get his coat,
and he came back without it, too. But he
said nothing, and several others tried the
experiment, and came back the same way.
ID,
and spoke of the dog. That broke the Ice,
and We decided to get the dog down. We
threw things at him and tried to scare him
away, but ne only growled savagely. Then
one ofthe party stood at the foot of the stairs
and lied like pirate, saying "Nice dog /!
Good old fellow Come, Towser !" But
Towser was proof against flAttery. 1t had
grown quite dark, and the breeze was com.
ing along brisk, and every body was shiv-
ering. Meat was offered to the dog to get
him away, but he wouldn't have it. Things
began to be blue. The handsome yachts
man asked if somebody present couldn't
swear The chief of the depar tment, being
fireman, of course didn't know profane
word, and neither did any of the rest of
us. The doctor said if anybody would go
up and throw the dog out he'd cauterize
the bites free of charge, and our friend of
the legal fraternity SAID he'd give his ser.
vices in a suit for damages. But nobody
volunteered. The very heavy gentleman
said if he could get on the roof and drop
through on the dog he could break the ami.
malls back, but before saying this he took
care to observe that there was no way to
get on the roof. There was only one thing
to do, and we did it. We sent half mile
to get the dogs owner. And while we
waited for him we sat and shivered and
chartered our teeth, and told each other it
was funny, and inwardly thought OF things
that wouldn't look well in print. And we
treated the owner of that deg very politely
til! he had sent the dog home and we had
got our coats. Then if we didn't tell him
what We thought of the brute, no matter.

ANCIENT FLAyoRINGs 1t is 4 canon OF
cookery that there should he a little salt in
all sweet dishes, and little sugar in all
sayory dishes, but thsC the palate should
not perceive the mix ture. Ia many of the
recipes oi the fifteenth century large Guam.
Titles OF sugar or honey are mixed with
spices aud saffron, and few dishes can have
had distinctive flavor or color. Spices and
sugar were brought from Venice in l4S5.
The freight for gross spice, small spice
aud Levaat sugar Is regulated by no less
person than the Dnge. Later on, ia 1905,
pepper is worth Isl gros the pound, equal
to DO ducats the cargo; ginger from Aiex-
sndria, "A gros, AMI what comes from
Portugal, of which there is very little,
fetches IL gros. The ducat at Antwerp is
worth rs gros. Milk and butter are so
seldom used, we infer they were very
scarce articles. May butter" is once
named SIS an ingredient. Probably no
butter was made tor mauy months OF the
year during Which the cows were too Ill.
led to yield milk. or the calves required il
exclusively. Salted butter-there was, bat
diversified and il.made, and no improve
ment to 'cookry." Milk of almonds is
constantly named, where we should use
cream or milk though it must always
have been a costly material PERHAPS the
explanation is that these recipes came from
the south of France and Italy, where the
climate does pot favor the use of cream
The impression we receive from study OF
these recipes is not favorable to the taste
OF our ancestors. Savory dishes are spoiled
by the introduction Of sweet ingredients,
sweet dishes by an indiscriminate use OF
spices. II "a number OF dishes are desira-
bic, each dish should have its distinct
flavor, aad should be acceptable to different
palates, or to the palate at different stages

ELECTRIC LIGHTS ON RAILWAYS
Pennsylvania Railroad Company has Just
tested, with satisfactory results. system
of electric lighting for passenger coaches
by means Of a Faure accumulation. On
Monday evening passenger car provided
with seven lamps of two burners each was
attached to regular train from Jersey
City to Philadelphis, and number of rail-
road officials and electricians made the trip.
1t was the unanimous opinion thst the ex.
pertinent was an entire success. The lamps
gave soft, clear and steady light. The
sccumulstor, which was placed under the
middle of the car, transmitted electricity
to the carbons by wires on either side. DIR.
Dudley, electrician of the Pennsylvania
Company, who conducted the experiment,
will doubtless make favorable report.
