ASSERTING BEANS.
Every cook knows how long time it
takes, when 1t can least be spared, to
look over one or two quarts of beans
An ingenious friend, who is always try
ing to save time, Gays: 'Put the beans
IL q colander, and all the line dirt will
be shaken out, and the beans that are
specked can be picked out with ease. and
III very short time.
CABBAGE OMELRT.

an appetlzlng side DISH Beat four eggs
till they are very light, the whites and
yolks separately; 10 the yolks add
small cup OF sweet milk, and pepper and
salt to taste; then stir IN a cup of cold
boiled cabbage, chopped fine; have
enough butter IN saucepan to cover the
bottom; when hot, pour the omelet in,
having stirred the whites of toe eggs in
first before putting into the pan.
VEAL OUTLETS A LA MILANAIRB.
Brown some veal outlets quickly in hot
lard, then take them out of the pan, and
thicken the hot lard with -four; stir until
the flour browns, then pour in sufficient
boiling water to make the gravy about
the thickness of cream. Fry some

little cayenne with little less than a

spoonful of each, with the exception OF
the cayenne, is the usual allowance
half teaspoonful of cayenne is sui
ticient. Put the meat IN a porcelain ket-
tie, and pour the vinegar and spices over
it, and pint of soup stock. 1t is con-

onions, bread-crumbs and butter, sea-
soned with little salt, pepper, and nut
meg, and well mixed. Fill, with some
of this stufdng, the place of the bone.
Make deep 1ncisions or cuts all over the
surface of the meat, and fill them closely
with the same stufing. Bind tape
around the meat TO keep it in shape.
Put it into stew-pan, with just water
enough to cover it, and lett stew slowly
and steadily during four, five, or six
hours, IN proportion to its size; skim
ming it frequently. When done, serve it
up with it's own gravy.

Upon her orbit swings the world

The Logging Season.

The Superior Lumber company have
started their mill, the largest in the
country, for the season. The com pany
has 27,0OO,000 feet of lumber to cut.
At Ontonagon, fine rain has given a
fresh impetus to the lumber drives on
the river, and will add millions of feet
to the receipts of the season. About
100000 feet are now RATED at the
Beef Slough boom, and they are turning
out not less than 10000 feet per day,
and the consignments are about the
same. As high as 5000, 900 feet per day
will be RATED, providing the owners Of
logs will take them away as fast as RATED.
One-half of the logs now RATED are
new logs, banked during the winter of
1928. There are about 46O men at
work now on the slough, say from Round
Hill to the mouth of the slough. There
was not less than 9OO, 900, 900 feet banked
on the Chippewa river and tributaries
last winter, probably 500 ,OOO, 900 of which
will be manufactured on the Mississippi
river, and the rest on the Chippewa and
tributaries.

Suicide of a Cleveland Million
aire.

The people of Cleveland, Ohio, were
startled Friday evening by the announce
ment that Amasa Stone, the well-known
railroad man, capitalist and philanthro-
pist, hadshot and killed himself. Since
last November, Mr.. Stone has been af-
flicted by insomnia, brought about by
indigestion, and o late his condition has
been so much worse that he was unable
to obtain more than an hour or two of
sleep in night. He did not leave his
bed Friday morning, and at noon COM
planned that he was feeling more de-
pressed than usual. At 2 o'clock he was
consulted by his secretary on a matter
of business, conversing at that time in a
perfectly rational manner. About 2:30
o'clock Mrs. Stone, who had been in her
husbands room all day, went away for a
short time, as he had expressed a
desire to sleep, About 4 o'clock she
had again visited the room and dis
covered that Mr.. Stone had arisen from
his bed. She went to the bathroom,
but found the door locked. A servant
climbed up through the transom and dis
covered Mr.. Stone already dead, and
partly dressed. 1t is supposed thatafter
bathing he was seized with sudden i'm
pulse and fired a:bu|let through his heart
with accurate aim. Death must have
been instantaneous. He leaves widow
and two daughters, one the wife of Col.
John Hay, recently assistant secretary
of state, aud the other the wife of Sam
uel Lathcr. Col. and Mrs. Hay sailed

Union Pacific Railway.

The game of bluff which Sidney Dill
Ion is playing sug sests an outcome of the
relations between the Union Pacific and
the government, which is not altogether
improbable. From 1894 to 1898, the
whole burden of indebtedness resting
on the Union and Central Pacific COM
panies falls due. The bonds issued by
the government to help build the Union
Pacific reach $35, l39 .512, now amounting
with unpaid interest, to .$54,77S, 754.
The Central Pacific debt on the game
account aggregates $43 1856, 100. It will
be impossible for either road to pay this
enormous debt. If they fail, the gov
eminent has the right to foreclose. The
companies will probably ask congress to
pass an act by which the government
will take up these bonds, and issue
others in their stead, to provide for
which the present contributions of one
fourth of the net earnings will be con-
tinued. If this is not done, the roads
will be given up. The owners of the
Union Pacific already control parallel
line to Ogden by the Atchison and Rio
Grande roads, and a connection to the
Pacific can be easily made. The govern
ment surely docs not want the road on
its hands, and some arrangement is like
ly to be made before the bonds are due.

Senator Fair in self-Defense.

Senator Fair in conversation with a
press representative regretted bitterly
and keenly the notoriety given matters
SO exclusively concerning himself and
wife. He said: 81 am the man, and
am willing to bear all the odium which
the public, in ignorance of the real facts,
may choose to cast upon me; but my re-
greet is for my wife, whose name should
be associated and incorporated in dis
patches transmitted all over the country.
Now, as always, my desire has been to
do that which would contribute to the
happiness of my wife and children. If
my wife thinks eparation will contribute
to her further happiness, then her mind
and mine are alike. have done moth

Our Treaty With England.


Charles Reed has been studying ex-
tradition treatise, and finds that our
treaty with England only stipulates
that a certified copy of an indictment
and certificate of the jurisdiction of
the court. the grand jury of which pre-
sented the indictment, is required, to
procure an e1tradition. The treaty does
not say that in this country the secreta-
ry of state shall be the ultimate author
ity in granting the decision, but it says
that he may be. When the treaty was
being negotiated: the question of polit-
ical offenses came up, and England re-
fused to allow them to be specified as

erican officials should determine whether
an ofense was committed in
England or not. OF all our extradition
treaties, that with Belgium is the only
one that stipulates that the evidence
against the accused shall be submitted,
and the accused shall not be tried for
any offence other than that for which he
was extradted. In this connection,
however, it is worthy of notice that in
two or three recent cases England
has insisted that an extradted person
should not be tried for any offence other
than that for which he was extradted

New York opium Dens.

On Monday the Catholic Young Mems
association of New York had its monthly
meeting and adopted resolutions de-
nouncing the locality selected, No. 20
Mott street, in the very heart of the
Chinese colony. The president said
that one Of the priests CT the church was
struck and grossly insulted by an aban-
doned girl last night. He called atten-
ton to the wholesale ruin of young girls
by Cinnamon in the neighborhood. The
Rev. Father Barry said: II know as a
priest of this parish that in the neigh
borhood, of a hundred little girls have
been ruined in the Mott street opium
dens within year. The girls are in
duced to visit the opium shops, and
once in the dens are coaxed into trying
a pipe or two of opium. The girls soon
became victims of the opium habit, and
then they become regular habitues of
the house, and ruin is the natural result.
Some of the incidents were horrible ibe-
yond description.

Dynamite N1ezzeroff.

Prof. Mezzerof, the alleged instructor
of the dynamite school, in New York
said, addressing meeting:
In all there are over 10000, 900 soldiers
who are supported by laboring men of
the old world, yet when I propose to
use bomb costing $1,000 in place of a
Krupp gun costing 100000, I am
called fend. If we want to kill each
other let us. do it on principle. Gun
powder flies at the rate of 1900 feet a
minute; dynamite at 100000. Ifyou use
my explosive you can defend yourself
against all the armies of the world. I
have the same right to educate men in
chemistry that Chandler has, and won't
stop until every workingman in Europe
and America knows how to use explo-
sives against autocratic governments and
grasping monopolists.

liams, of the National New York Cane
Growers association, has written a let
ter protesting against DR.. Golfers re-
moval, and requesting his reinstatement
and the removal of Commissioner Lor-
ing. The present importance and the
prospective magnitude and value Of the
sorghum industry are set forth. Presi-
dent Williams then goes on to complain
af Commissioner Loring's inefficiency
and to declare that he has done nothing
worthy ofapprobation since he became
the head of the department. He has at
tempted to crush the sorghum industry,
etc. The president is therefore asked to
remove him. Commissioner Loring
does not appear in the least disturbed
by the accusations against him or the
strong opposition shown to his admin
istration of the department.

The exclusion of American pork from
Germany on the pretext that it abounds
in trichnia. if continued, will probably
lead to retaliatory legislation which may
be extremely injurious to German in
dustry. There is no more trlchnia in
American than in German, or French,
or English pork, and the object of ex-
Guiding American pork from Germany
is simply to protect the hog producerso OF
that country, and if the action of the
government were placed on that ground,
our people would have no right to COM
plain, as we reserve and exercise the
privilege of protecting home industries.
But if We should lay duty on leading
German product, or prohibit it, as Ger
many has done, on the ground that it
was not fit to be used, and was dangerous
to the life of the people, then we would
be guilty of an unfriendly and unjustifi-
able act. The matter is elicitinga great
deal of discussion both in this country
and in Germany, and will be likely to
impair our hitherto cordial relations
with that country.

Parting Shot at Vanderbilt.

has no Nickel Plate or Omaha stocks.
But he has the bonds of these concerns.
He did not. sell share of his interest ir
he Wagner cars, in the Merchants
Despatch, or in any of the soft things
he owns. He peddled out, and peddled
very adroitly, only what he considered
to be worth little or nothing, leaving it
to the id public to hold the bag, and
after having accomplished that, he Gym
ically remarksin his speech at the meet
ing of the directors of his roads, that he
owed it as duty to himself, to the cor
porations and to those upon whom the
Chief management would devolve, to
retire from the presidency. All this is
undoubtedly very smart, but is it hon.

Damages for Damaged Heart

Bernard Barwick for SIC, 900 damages for

Mclean, the defendant in the case.
Counsel said that the decision had been
received too late to take action upon it
Immediately, but he should at once ap-
ply to the referee for certificate to
the effect that he should have an extra
allowance of per cent. on the 81 900 dam
ages. This, he thought, would probably
bring the total cost that Barwick
would have to pay up to 500. In case
the plaintiff would not pc liable to pay

his body, and he would be sent to jail.

The rigid measures enacted by con-
gress for the exclusion Of adulterated

country from tea adulteration without
vigilant supervision ofthe trade in the
United States. The importation finn
pure tea will hereafter be very difficult.
fnot wholly impossible, but there is a
danger OF adulteration after
i Importation. It has been found that the
manufacturer of spurious coffee berries
from dough baked in moulds has be-
come an extensive business, and the in
experienced shopper may purchase as
pure coffee ian article containing one
fourth part of such spurious berries. It
is probable that interruptions dealers
will resort to similar practices for the
adulteration of tea. Dried leaves of va
1ious sorts and vile concoctions of indie
scribable character may be mixed with
good tea. unless provision is made to
prevent that result. ...
