THE CITIZEN is SD well acquainted with the definition of tao words "ciyil oervice reform" that its application Is misplaced when Federal officers go into the Demo cratic camp and select tbeir assistants, and then secure Democratic journals to defend them. That may be Democratic c.vI service reform. and there may be Federal officers who admire the app.ica- ton, but as 8 rule 1t is not the plan to practice by Republicans. Party strength is what every true, loyal Republican de sires if he loves his party and believes in 1t, and a Democratic assistant in office Is not wholly in sympathy with his chief, no matter how excellent he IS. We have no hesitancy in saying he will betray his chief sooner or later. Evyry Democratic assistant to Republican office holders, Federal, county or Territorial, only weakens the Republican party so much and correspondingly strengthens the Democratic party. When Democratic newspapers say there are DO fit or com pessnt persons il the Republican party in this Territory to fill such places, It is assuming strange position. It k a piece of journalistic demagoguery" un- paralleled in journalism.

Various Kinds Of Soup.

The most common of vegetable soups
is bean soup. Any kind will do, although
the best are the French beans. Soak
quart of them over night in lukewarm
water Put them over the fire next
morning with one gallon of cold water.
Boil for three or four hours. Add celery,
onions if desired, and one or two thinly
sliced potatoes. Simmer until the vege-
tables are done. Caraway or dill seed
is a good addition to the seasoning of
bean soup.
Split-pea soup can be made in The
same way as bean soup, except that it
requires less boiling.
Tomato soup can be made in the two
following ways, and no one who has not
eaten it can have any idea how good 1t
is: To one pint of canned tomatoes or
four large raw ones add one quart OF
boiling water. Then add one teaspoon
ful of soda, when it will foam. Imme-
diately add one pint of milk. Put in
plenty of butter, salt and pepper to
taste. 1t is then ready to serve. Tomato
soup can be made without milk. To
six large tomatoes, or pint and half
of the canned vegetables, allow one gall
lon of water and boil thoroughly. Add
a large piece of butter. Beat an egg to
froth, add little milk OF cream and put
into the soup just before it is sent to
table.
Onion soup is made by frying finely
sliced onions in butter and turning boil
ing water over them. To six good-sized
onions allow a gallon of boiling water.
Throw in some parsley, pepper and salt
to taste. Serve with slice of bread
fried light brown in each plate.
Pumpkin or squash soup is almost a
national dish in France. Indeed, the
first mentioned vegetable is scarcely en-
pIoyed there for any other purpose than
for soup-making. To two quarts ol
thoroughly cooked pumpkin or squash
allow one quart of milk, plenty of but,
ter, pepper and salt. Serve with toasted
bread

which unite the wings to the body, and

A MUDDY CAMPAIGN.
The March over n virginia Road after =
Rain.

From Recollections of a Private" in
the December Century, we quote the
following: " No country can beat 2
Virginia road for mud. We struck 1t
thick. 1t was knee-deep. 1t was verify
heavy marching The foot sank very
insidiously into the mud, and reluctantly
came out again it had to be coaxed,
and while you were persuading your
reluctant left, the willing right was
sinking into unknown depths; it came
out of the mud like the noise of sue
tion-pump when the water is exhau-
sted.
"The order was given, Route Step +;
we climbed the banks of the road IN
search of firm earth, but it couldn't be
found, SO we went on pumping away,
making about one foot in depth to two
in advance. Our. feet seemingly weighed
twenty pounds each. We carried a
number six into the unknown depths OF
mud, butit came out number twelve,
elongated, yellow, and nasty ; it had
lost its Fair proportions, and would be
mistaken for anything but foot, if not
attached to leg. 1t seemed impossible
that we should ever be able to find our
feet in their primitive condition again.
Occasionally boot or shoe would be left
in the mud, and it would take an ex-
ploring expedition to find it. Oh, that
disgusting sticking mud ! Ward Rider
declared that if Virginia was once in the
Union, she was now in the mud. A big
Irish comrade, Jim O'Brien, facetiously
took up the declension of mud-mud,
mudder, murder-pulling foot out at
each variation for emphasis. Jack E.
declared it would be impossible to dis
lodge an enemy stuck in the mud as we
were.
"The army resembled, more than any
thing else, a congregation of flies max
ing pilgrimage through molasses. The
boys called their feet 'pontoons, mud
hooks 'soil-excavators, and other
names not quite so polite. When we
halted to rest by the wayside, our feet
were in the way of ourselves and every.

OFFERED TO COMPROMISE.
Deacon BodIsiu se,tles a vexed Question

From the Boston Globe.l
Deacon Bodkin's eldest daughter, Mi
randa, has been passing her usual sum-
mer vacation at her fathers house,
accompanied by her youngest hope, a
I'd of 6 months. Among other useful
1;ppendages which Miranda brought with
her was baby carriage. During the
summer the deacon has been very So
licitous concerning the carriage. He has
driven away an unknown number OF
the neighbor's children who came into
the yard to swing in the famous ham,
mock chair and ended by playing with
the carriage.
"Chiren," he was constantly shout
ing, 'let that ere carriage alone F! You'll
break it next" until the deacon's solici-
tude for the safety of that baby car
rage became proverb in the neighbor-
hood.
At the rear of the deacon's yard stands
a small building, where he keeps his
tools and where he does odd jobs on
rainy days. Here he made an asylum
for the carriage, and he was at times
greatly vexed that Miranda did not al
ways take care to put it in the shop
when it was not in use.
eft can't possibly come to any harm
if you will put it in the shop when you
are done with it," he would say. "The
chilen will be sure to break it if you
eave it out"
During the past few days of rain the
deacon has been quite busy in the shop
making boot-jacks to throw at cats and
other necessary articles. The other day
he desired a strip of board that lay across
the rafters and he climbed upon 9
ladder to take it down. The deacon is
not as good at climbing as he once was
and the ladder was little unsteady.
II guess I can get it, said the deacon
as he looked up at the board just above
his reach. ''Ef only jest had piect
of paper to stand on I'd fetch it."
Just at that moment the ladder slipped
at the foot, lurched, the deacon graspet
frantically at the empty air, and befor,
he could calculate "Bless my soul, " h,
alighted fall and plum upon the bab,
carriage.
The deacon was just gathering him
self together and emerging from tn
wreck of the carriage when Samanth
appeared in the doorway.
"Why, pa" said Samantha, "I didn'
hear any thunder"
Thunder ?" said the deacon.
eyes; hasn't the carriage been struc
by lightning, or an earthquake, or some
thing?"
Samantha" said the deacon, cor
fidentially, ''ef you II never say anothe
word about this ere carriage I'll agre
not to plague you any more about ridiI
that ere pony"
