LATE FOREIGN NEWS.

ALEXANDRIA, Aug. 10.-A Cir
cassian, who passed through Arab
Pasha's camp, states that Colonel,
Captain, subaltern and seventy-six
men were killed on the rebel side in
the engagement on Saturday. He
confirms the report of Arabs bad
health. He says that twenty-five
battalions and eleven batteries are
posted along the canal between
kafr-el .Dwar and the advanced out
posts.
1t is said that the French Director
of Domains states openly that he
has sold Arab Pasha's government
grain.
The imperial proclamation OF the
Sultan announces clearly the inten-
ton of the Sultan to support the
Khedive. The Turkish Foreign
Minister has informed Lord Dufferin
of the intention of the Porte to dis
patch the first detachment of Tur-
kish troops to Egypt to-day (Thurs-
day.. The detachment consists of
6, 600 men,.
At Constantinople it is believed
the Austrian delegation will move to
indefinitely adjourn the Conference
on Thursday.
Two of Arab Pasha's spies have
been captured.
The troops will henceforth be sup
piled with water from condensers.
Cartright, acting British Consul
General, in view of the difficulty of
obtaining water, has sent a circular
to the foreign Consuls, asking them
to inform their respective Govern
ments of the great Importance of
preventing an increase in the num-
Der of arrivals here.
Arab Pasha has mounted four
new gums on his first line of in.
trenchments.
a council composed of Admiral
Seymour and leading military au-
rhorities here, have been sitting on
board tho Helicon, to investigate
Abe effects of the bombardment on
the forts. The evidence of naval
and military officers is that masonry
is useless against modern guns, but
that earthworks turn every shot. A
council of war also held, at which
the Duke of Connaught was present.
AUG. 14.-Fires of considerable
magnitude are visible to-day in the
rear Of the enemy's position at King
osman.-The stmr Holland with the
household cavalry, and the troop
ship Orontes with the Cameron
Highlanders and a battalion of the

The sick list of the British troops
before the arrival of the Guards
showed that out of total Of 5,400I
men there were 76 invalids exclusive
of the wounded. -Last evening some
shots were exchanged and several
prisoners captured near the Canal.

An Impending Fashion.

The New York Herald has startled socie-
ty with the announcement that 'sdigitated'
stockings are coming into fashion. A dlgita-
ted stocking, Of course, must be one with
five separate receptacles for the toes, snch as
the glove has for the fingers. Who wants
digit, ted stockings. It is all a busy man Can
do now to get his non-digitated stocking On
right side out. What, then, will be his vexa-
ton and dispair if he has to ad just each toe
to its proper place in the new article Sup
pose the house should be on fire and a man
had to put digitated stockings on And what
good are they after the big toe and tbs little
toe and the three nameless ones have all been
tucked up tor the day !? The shoe or boot
would cuver them as a mitten would a glove,
and the world be none the wiser for one
wearing a dlgitated stocking, unless the
boots or shoes are digitated also. There may
BIZ something aesthetic in some toes, but the
few glimpses of those members on other
people one gets at he seaside during the
bathing season prove that the ma joIity OF
toes are altogether to fantastic for public ex.
hibitIOn.

The Rernhurat's Husband.

NJ. Damala is thirty-fve years of age. He
was an ,ttache at the Greek Embassy at
Paris, and made the acquaintance OF Sarah
Bernhardt last August, when be called for
the first time on her at her home on the av-
enue V~illiers. He was smitten, he explained
to her his passion for the stage, and asked to
be allowed to join her troupe. He explained
TO her that he would be glad to play any part
given him, and that he had never, though a
pupil of Talllen, played in a theatre. Sarah
Bernhardt made HIM recite to her a passage
in the Dame aux Camelias," and was SO
much pleased with the result as to admit the
ambitious young man into her company un-
der The name Of Daria. After playing some
time in minor parts, M. Damala succeeded
Mr.. Angelo, on his retirement, in the more
important ones. 1t is believed that the for
maIllies of the French law have not been
complied with but in this case the bride is
not likely to gave parents or guardians able
or inclined to contest the validity of the mar
riage.

HOUSE HINTS.

To wash a venison steak is to ruin it.
When you slice the steaks from the haunch
they ought to be clean. The outside cut may
be soiled from transportation; then you may
rub it clean with a damp ,Wel. A venison
steak should be broiled on a clear hot fire,
we'll sailed, and with a very little pepper,
and eaten plain with a very little hot butter
in the dish. A good sauce is made with a
couple of teaspoontuls of currant jelly, a
mustard spoonful of celery seed, and some
of the gravy fronr the yenlson steak served
as hot as possible. Hot pl~tes' very not ones,
are . necessity tor game Of all SINUS anu
most especially %venison.
A tea cake that can be made without eggs
IS something to be desired. Follow this rule:
One coffee cup OF pulveriz4d sugar, two large
tablespoonful of butlers rub the butter and
sugar together till 'hey are smooth as cream;
add half a cup of sweet creap (of course
MIN can be used) one cup and . half of flour,
half a t~easpoonful of soday bake IN a hot
oven; cake of this description should De eaten
while fresh. Another cheep cake is made
by using one egg. one cup of sugar, one cup
of milk, a tablespoonful Of butter, a little
nutmeg and mace, two %teaspoonfuls of bak-
ing powder, and enough flour to make a light
batter. Dorcas will please give heed to these
two recipes.
Old Time Pork and Beans-Take two
pounds Of moderately lean pork, to two OTIS.
of m%arrowfat or other beans. Put the beans
to soak over night. In the morning after
breakfast scald and scrape the rind OF the
pork and put on to boil an hour before put
ting in the beans. Set the beans to boil in u
separate pot, in half VAIN water. 1t the
water used is of hard limestone, use a tea
spoonful of soda to the first water. After
boiling d short time, drain through a colan-
der and put on fresh water and let boil until
quite tender. Then add the pork to the beans
and let simmer until nearly as stiff as mashed
potatoes. Then put into a baking dish;
score the pork and place in the center;
brown in the oven one hour. Great care
should be taken not to let the beans scorch
when they are boiling.

In Germantown, a part Of the suburbs of
Philadelphia, there IS a free library Of 10
900 volumes without a novel in it. When
the librarian was asked, "Why don't you
keep novels p he replied: because we hold
that it does harm to our young readers. Fully
one-half of those who come here are young
folks. Novels at that period are not the
things for them. We hold that their minds
should be led to take up some more whole
some ~reading-books On travels, or natural
history, or Notwithstanding that will
amuse and instruct together" lis there
any dissatisfaction because you nave no
novels here p mo, we have from 400 to
600 visitors a week, and they increase every
year. We have books on 81 sorts of trades
architecture, engineering and carpentering.
We find these books are a great deal reads
and have not the least doubt as to their use
fulness."

TO THE
Wool Growers
Or MONTANA.

We have for sale 100 Pure Bred Merino Rams,
bought from George Campbell, of Westminlster, Vt,
and selected by us with special reference to the elm
ate of Montana, they being almost entirely free from
folds or wrinkles, and having Oil sufficient only for
healthy, sound, wool. They are almost the exact type
of the Merino sheep bred by Australian wool-growers.
Seyenty-fve Of these Rams were shipped from Yer
mont last v ar and are now over two years old this
spring. We also have for sale a few Shropshire Sheep
bought from Mr.. W. Fl. Cochrane, OF Compton, Can
ada, the largest importer of fine stock in America.
These sheep are one and two years old, and some of
Shropshire not only stands at the head OF all the Eng.
lish mutton sheep but they produce a heavy fleece of
compact, medium wool These sheep are as hardy
and prolific as the SonthdoWn, and as quiet in grazing
as the Merino.
In buying pure bred Sheep we act upon the theory
that the only safe way is to deal with well-known
b, eeders. We invite woolgroWers to examine our
Sheep and the testimonials of their breeders.
PRICES REASONABLE.

Origin OF ODD Fellowship.

AS to the origin of Odd Fellowship there
are many disagreements, some ascribing it to
the Huns and Goths in the fourth or fifth
century, and others making the Spaniards
the inceptors, somewhere about A.. ID. $50
Still others claim that the order first arose
among the Roman soldiers when Nero was
imperator, anu that Titus gave the name by
describing the members as ''odd fellows"
In the Grand Lodge of the United States is
an emblem in which Adam is represented as
laying the foundation stone of the structure.
All these fanciful ideas have been discarded,
though probably there were orders estab-
lished at the times and in the places men
tioned-exclusive of Adam Of course-and
the accepted theory now is that In the latter
part of the eighteenth century a number of
lodges or societies, styling themselves An
cient and Honorable Loyal Odd Fellows,
were established in England, the object, then
being, as it now remains, charitable and be-
niicent. Burial expenses of members were
paid, and widows and orphans provided for
by joint contributions. In 1919 Thomas
Wilder, an English blacksmith, with -four
comrades, established in Baltimore Washing
ton Lodge, No. i. which soon after, from
the Manchester unity, procured a charter as
the Grand Lodge Of Maryland and the United
States. From this small beginning the growth
has been enormous, and now there are more
thar half a million members, while the an
nual charities amount into hundreds of thou
sands. There are five degrees. First, the
White second, the Covenant ; third, the
Royal Blue fourth, the Remembrance, and,
fifth, the Scarlet. By action of the Grand
Lodge of the United States in September,
1851, q Rebekah degree was established, into
which may be initiated members of the Scar
let degree and their wives. AS before stated,
the object of the order is fellowship and be-
niicence, and in its general government and
organization it much resembles masonry,
#7;tA which it is cognate in many respects.

Telier's Indian Policy.

We are slowly but surely evolving from a
sad experience in Improvement in the treat
ment of the Indian tribes. Secretary Kirk
wood decidedly favored grants of lands to
the Indians ID severalty. Secretary Teller
agrees that that is the proper way as to such
% are civilized enough to adapt themselves
to labor in the field, but not good as to the
wild tribes. He is probably right. There
would be nothing gained by giving land in
severalty to most of the Sioux, Cheyenne,
Apaches and Crows, who still retain their ne
madlc instinct, and will not work. As 10
their children, it will doubtless be different,
if the plan for the education of young In
diaus nlooted in the Senate shall be put in
operation.
One suggestion by the new Secretary from
Colorado has a meritorious lock. 1t is that
the reservation system be abolished, and that
as y substitute for it each tribe shall have
land patented to it, securing to them pre-
cisely the same title which the Government
conveys to interpretations or white men.
| This is fair and just 10 the tribes, but il also
like the plans Of seyeralty, is only applicable
to civilized tribes, VINO are capable OF busl-
ness and the management of a large real es-
tate property. L. is the plan pursued toward
the C~nerokees, Choctaws and Chickas Tvs,
ami extended to all other tribes. It leaves
the appointed rulers OF each tribe to enac'
me local laws for the distribution Of the land
among the families, and affords the amples'
possible protection against Jumpers, white
%iDterlopers and lane thieves. The reserva-
ton plan has everywhere tailed the moment
the land covered by the reservation became
Of sufficient value to tempt this class OF
whites to steal il or cause the Indians to BE-
leglsl ted out Of it. Their title Should be
placed on a par with that of any corpora
ton of whites to land patented to them =
above the reach OF demagogues in Congress.
