Yesterday,s storm Not w1srtns,.

NEW YORK, March 6.-Men asked whether to-day's storm of snow might not be Wig gins storm little ahead of time the officer on duty at the signal service station in this city said "I do not think Mir. Wiggins can lay any claim to this storm, for it possesses none of the earmarks by which he could identify it. It originated in the Up- per Lake region on Sunday and is not accompanied by any fierce winds, and the slope of the Rocky Noun tains, where he foretold severe damage, is basking in mild temperature under clear sky. We have not as yet received any notice of the arrival of MT. Wiggins' storm on the Pacific Coast, and it is more than probable that we shall enjoy the first clear Sunday we have had this year next week.

 Used City Labor on Private Jobs.
 NEW YORK, March 6.-Some serious charges have been made by a mar named Miller, who was until recently employed as a carpenter in the park department of this city. A secret investigation has been in progress for several days and a startling array of evidence is said to have been obtained in support of the charges against certain officials of the depart ment of using material and labor paid for by the city for private work not connected with the parks and of selling the same to outside parties. The investigation has been conduct ed by General Egbert D. Viele, who was ap- pointed commissioner since the time of the alleged rascalities, and his report, which will be made public tomorrow, is expected to create a sensation

AS have said, the minor meals are
prepared by the ladies; they are precise
ly alike. The tea things, often of valua-
BILE China, are kept in a cupboard, usual
Nv concealed in the wall, and with several
pictures hung on the papered door, which,
to your horror, suddenly swings forward.
In the has kdmer one of the ladies first
fetches a white cloth, about yard square,
which she places in the centre OF the
table. For dinner large one is used, as
with us. Then she brings out very small
tray, bearing cups, saucers, plates and
kniyes-the last black-handled-pu putting
one for each person.
She sets the slOp-basin and cups in or
der. and brings out a little spirit lamp
with a silver stand, on which to set the
teapot, or cdfetiere, whichever is to be
used and box of matches. She sets the
tea-caddy handy, or if it must be coffee,
grinds up with a little hand-mill sniff
cient quantity for the meal. Then she
gets the butter-pot, which is deep, round
pot of common def, with lid. 1t is filed
to the brim with butter, and emptied, not
by cutting, as we do, but by each person
scraping out, with his own knife, as much
as he wishes 10 use for each piece of bread
he takes. 1t is not a pretty fashion by any
means.
Then appears an oblong basket, with a
long roll of bread, of which she cuts
several slices about an inch thick, usually
allotting two for each person. They re-
main in the basket with the bread, and no
POyIey is used. Near the basket stands a
trap a size smaller, with black bread,
currant loaf, gingerbread made with
honey, almond cake, or some such dainty.
There is always cheese, which is handed
round, and often pot of some thick,
sticky substance, like very dark treacle,
called appel strOOp. No one could ever
tell me how it was made, except that it
was made Of apples. | bought some in
Brussels, but could not understand the
French Of the woman from whom l got it.
| found her Flemish much easier to fol-
fow.
appel str0op is delicious, and, though
sweet, is not at all sickish, When the
meal is ready, a maid appears bearing a
jug of milk-I never saw cream-and a
large brass pan, like an upright coal pan,
in which is a braZier Of burning charcoal,
and kettle of boiling water Then the
tea or coffee is made, the little spirit-lamp
lighted, and the meal is ready.
1t is eaten in the same ungPaceful fash
ion as dinner: the bread butteped, and
''cheesed," if l may coin such a term, for
the cheese is cut in the thinnest waters,
and laid on top of the butter; then it is
cut into strips, the knife laid aside, and
the strips disposed of.

The Choke Had Come

He had just got his oyster shop opened
to the public the other day when in came
a man who asked:
''GOt any rawsT'
Eyes, SIR"
"Serve 'em on the half SHELF"
''We do"
extra larger"
eve have some of the largest oysters !
ever saw"
The price was asked, and as it seemed
to be perfectly satisfactory, the man or
dered a dozen, and added:
''Pve got a slight contraction of the
muscles of the throat, and sometimes l
choke. If anything happens to me run me
to the door, where [ can get the air, and
then rush for drink of water.v
The caterer promised to observe the
caution, but it was only when the twelfth
and last oyster was taken in between the
two rows of teeth, which stood out like
ten-penny nails, that anything happened.
Then the eater suddenly raised one leg,
his eyes bulged out, and he began to skip
around like goat lodging club. The
choke had come. The caterer seized him
by the arm and ushered him to the door,
and then hurried to the rear end of the
restaurant for glass of water. When he
returned with it, half expecting to see his
customer lying on the floor in the agonIes
OF SunOcatlOn. no one was in sight. The
man was not in the door, nor at the door,
nor around the door. He was two blocks
