The Indictments Likely To Be Dismissed
To the Western Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, June 19.-General Brady
came into the Criminal Court room this
morning, for the purpose of furnishing bail
for his appearance to answer the charges con-
tanned in the indictments charging him with
receiving money while Second Assistant Post
master-general, as consideration for increas-
ing certain star-route mail service. Judge
Wylie said the verdict in the trial just ended
would probably be sufficient reason for vacat-
ing the bond given by General Brady in that
case. The original indictment remained, but
as he understood it was nearly identical with
that recently disposed of. he thought it
should be abandoned. Mr.. Ker said the gov
ernment did not purpose trying that indict-
ment, and if the court thought it should be
dismissed, he would not object. As Mr.. Mer-
rick was not present, however, he asked that
action in that matter be put off until Satur-

large spoonfuls Of sago in nearly quart
of water; add, when boiling, the peel of
one lemon; put in little mnslin bag o
little grated nutmeg; before taking from
the fire remove the muslin bag; then add
three eggs and little salt; put in q
pudding dish and let it bake for half an
hour; serve with GAUGE or with sugar and
cream.
For n;ce and economical pudding
take thin slices Of stale bread, butter
them on both sides, cover the bottom Of
a puadit g dish with them, and spread
jan Of any kind over them; then add
another lay er, and so on till the dish Is
full. Have thin layer of butteret]
bread on tie top. Serve hot with cream
or with custafu made of a pint of milk
one cup OF sugar, aud two eggs; favor
the custard with any extract which will
be in harmony with the jam.
A FANCY dish OF potatoes for tea is
made by pressing mashed potatoes
through a colander; LEI them lie lightly
in the dish just as they fall, then &c,
them in the oven to brown. They should
be well-seasoned with butter, pepper and

A Wart on the Finger.

A rather peculiar case of blooa-poison.

ehicted was learned of yesterday. About
two weeks ago Mrs. Marks a lady about
62 years of age, tried to remove wart
from the fo.efiuger of her right haud 10y
rubbing concentrated lye on i. She
applied the lye perhaps three or four
times, irritating the wart and causing
consid rabie of a sore. Finally her hand
began to swell and bee ame inflamed, and
she called a doctor, who told her that he
feared serious results. The next day
the doctor called on the patient at her
house, and she was worse. The infiam-
nation had extended up the arm, and it
was plain to be eeen that the lady's
blood was poisoned. Subsequently two
other doctors were called in, but Mrs.
Marks continued to grow worse. A
rheumatic affection also set in as the re-
suit of the poisoning, and later the dis.
ease reached her brain, and on Sunday
last she died. 80. s.,.:.,s, -. - .

Feeding Stock.

The Massachusetts, Ploughman says
that some farmers have al idea that any
boy can feed farm stock as well as man.
but the more observing believe that to
feed stock SO as 10 secure the best condi-
ton on the smallest amount of fodder.
requires quite as much skill as any
operation on the farm, and it is q work
which requires both study and practice;
study to learn tho nature and require
ments of each class of animals, and the
nutritive qualities of each kind of food;
practical experience so that the pa1ticu.
lar wants of each animal in every class
may be thoroughly understood. While
the farmer should endeavor to have his
boys feed the stock portion Of the time,
he should always be with them to give
directions and to see that the work is
properly done. The knowledge of how
to make cattle eat up the coarser fodder
without waste, is fully possessed by
some farmers, while others do not even
know how to make them eat up clean the
best of hay, but keep large quantities be-
fore them The most of the time. For
economy there is nothing like keeping a
clean crib, giving cattle only as much as
they will at once eat up clean. This will
apply to all farm animals as we'll as cat
tie. !

Cosmopolitan Paris.
From tho Pail Mall Gazette.]

The statistics of Paris just published
establish the claim OF the city to be the
most cosmopolitan in Europe. Whether
it be thing to be proud Of or not, Paris
is chiefly Inhabited by population who
arc not Parisiaps. Out Of 100 residents
only thirty are born within the limits OF
the town; the remaining seventy are pro-
vincials aud foreigners. People come
and make their money or come and
spend ths ir money at the capital, or
those who have made it leave Paris and
settle 10 the country True-born Paris
ians are the exception, not the rule. The
classification Of the foreigners is unex-
pectedly misleading. Neither political
Importance nor commercial prosperity
seems to regulate it. We mi ht think
the English, as being neighbors, trad
ing people, and people fond of coloni-
cation, would be the best represented.
But they come rather near the end much
after the Swiss and very much after the
Be'gians. Only 10 per cent. of the
strangers are English, while the subjects
Of King Leopold are nearly so per cent.
But it is in the case of the Germans that
we meet the most surprising of the Par
isian statistics. They have always been
very strong in Paris, much stronger than
the Eoglish and Americans combined.
In numbers they form 81 per cent. of
the strangers. But the curious incident
Of their occupation of the city is that it
has been steadily on the increase, and
has taken decided impulse since the
Franco German war. In 1876 they were
only 10 per cent. and now they are more
than 81. On the whole, it appears from
the census returns that, though the
population OF Paris has increased since
the last statistics were published, the
increase has chiefly consisted in the for
eigp residents.
