BLACK BREAD.-tor the preparation
of this peculiar bread three things are
necessary: rye meal. leaven and pure.
soft water. To this is added a less
essential ingredient, salt. The follow
ing is the formula for making it: MIX
five pounds of rye meal, half a pound
of leayen and from five to Six quarts of
warm water, about rs degrees, into a
dough, not too firm. Let 1t stand six
or seven hours to rise. One recognizes
the perfection of fern entation by many
small cracks and seams on the surface;
light pressure on the risen mass causes
an indentatlon which remains for a
time. 1t should have the SOU smell of
carbonic acid. We cannot say that the
bread is delicious, but large numbers
of peasants in France and Germany
almost live on 1t. 1t is very nutritious.

ADJUSTMENTS.
A Crowded House to See Raverly's
Ministries.

At the opera house last night not a seat
was obtainable after s o'clock. The house
was packed with an audience representing
the wealth and culture of Minneapolis.
There were few tame features and most of
the acts were new. There was a sort of
kid-glove air to everything presented. The
solos and choruses were good. and the jokes
were told in a new way. The vocal de-
partment is very strong. Edwin Harley
new song, ''My Love is Sailor Lad"
made decided hit. The Banquet at the
Liverpool club was original and the Quaker
City Quartet, ''Colored Blacksmiths, /" was
novel presentation. which re-
ceived numerous recalls. The spectacular
military novelty introduced sixteen men-
four fOurs-dressed in Highland costumes,
who went through quick and picturesque
series of marching maneuverS and manual
of arms exercises, with bayonet tableaux,
the whole being interspersed with noiSelesS
dancing. 1t was most enjoyable substi-
tute for the old WORKOUT Spangled clatter-
ers and clog-dancers. The Cragg family of
English acrobats were next on the program.
They performed an extensive series of tum-
bling and pOsturing, attired in dress coats,
low-cut vests, broad acres of stiff1y- starched
shirt fronts, collars and cuffs, in the most
daring yet confident manner. An original
and hilarious afterpiece, called Political
Appointments, and which the audience
remained to enjoy-an unusual proceeding
ended the entertainment. Haverly's
minstrels will give Especial matinee We'd
nesday to accommodate the ladies and chill
dren, and Wednesday, night will be their
farewell performance.
