SERVING FRUITS.
The Proper Way to Eat Melons, Pine.

apples and Bananas.
Catalogues and nutmeg melons are
among our most delicious breakfast fruits.
As they are only at their best when icy cold,
they should be put into the refrigerator the
night before they are to be used. just
before serving cut them into quarters,
remove the seeds, and, after arranging on q
meat dish, put piece of ice in the centre
of each. A handful of fresh, dew-laden
morning glories scattered over them makes
them very attractive.
Watermelons, on the contrary, are purely
dinner fruit. Like cantaloupes, they
should be thoroughly chilled before serving
Gut into halves before sending to the table,
and in doing so do not make the cut straight
but pointed. To accomplish this take q
sharp carving knife and cut it in this way
AAAA around the centre, the points being
about the width of the knife. Out thin
piece from each outside end to make it
stand firmly, put small piece of ice into
each pointed end, and serve on large meat
dish. In serving cut down from the
points into wedge-shaped pieces. Peaches,
pears and grapes follow the melons as
breakfast fruits, and very prettily may they
be arranged in combinations of any two or
three varieties. Peaches and pears ought
always to be served whole for breakfast
The pears should be lightly rubbed ON a
woollen cloth, and the peaches brushed with
soft MANILA brush. II the grapes are
dusty, hold each cluster separately by its
stem in one hand and with the other pour
very cold water over it, or if you have run.
ming water hold each stem under the cold
water faucet for moment. Almost any
fruit when served whole is very much more
attractive with garnishing of its own
leaves. The brilliantly colored pear and
peach leaves in the fall are especially pretty
if arranged among pears and peaches, while
grapes are never prettier than with sprays
of their own delicate leaves and tendrils.
Bananas and pineapples cut up together
will be found delicious dessert, which
may be varied by adding grated cocoanut
Pare pineapple and then dig it off in small
pieces with o silver fork. Add to ii granu.
lated sugar and allow it to stand for two OF
three hours in the refrigerator. just before
serving remove the skins from three or four
large red bananas, cut them in thin round
slices and mingle carefully through the
pineapple. If fresh grated cocoanut is to
be used also put it with the pineapple when
it is first cut, reserving o small cupful to
scatter over the top after adding the banana.
Exposure to the air causes cut bananas to
discolor very quickly. Whole bananas
should be kept in dry, cool place, but
must never be put into a refrigerator, as
chilling them causes them not only to turn
black, but to decay quickly. Large red
raspberries may be mingled with sliced ba-
nanas and eaten with cream and sugar.

A DEMOCRATIC CRITICISM.

M Holly Herald DEM.
The Democratic State Convention nom
mated for Governor Robert s. Green, OF
Union county. To say that the nomina-
ton was received with satisfaction or en-
thusasm would be untrue. 1t was re-
garded as a very bitter dose which had
been prepared by Mcpherson, Albeit,
Ross and their heelers by the free use and
promise of money and patronage. Some
of our Democrats, while having nothing
to say against Mr.. Green's personal
worth or ability, do not approve of his
record on the tariff and the oleomargarine
bills, the means by which he was nomi-
mated nor the men who backed him. II
the election were to be held in week, he
would be defeated

ANTAGoNIsTIo TO woRKINGMEN.

Orange Journal.
1t is generally conceded that Mr.. Green
is not the candidate the Democrats could
have nominated. The methods by which
the nomination was brought about has
caused intense dissatisfaction with the
better class Of Democrats throughout the
State, while the workingmen are not only
opposed to Mr.. Green, because be is a law
yer, member of the firm of Vandpool,
Green and Cunning, Of New York, the
legal advisers of Jay Gould, but also be-
cause certain acts in his Congressional
career have shown him to be antagonistic
to the workingmen.
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1886-10-06

There is deeply settled conviction in
the Democratic mind that Judge Green
was not fairly nominated. 1t is claimed
that by no counting Of votes known to be
for him and known to be for others in the
several counties can it be shown that he
had majority. We guess this claim is
we'll founded, and cannot be successfully
questioned.

Mr.. Jefferson Davis.

We wish to enter our protest against
the manner in which the recent appear
ances and speeches of Mr.. Jefferson
Davis have been received by a large pOr-
tion of the Northern press.
Our esteemed contemporaries seem to
forget that this is free country, and
that Mr.. Davis is no longer subject to ar
rest or trial, but enjoys the most perfect
right to express freely and fully his ideas
and emotions OF all public questions,
both of the present and of the past.
Whatever he may say is open to be crit
icised and cOntrOverted. Other reason
ing may be opposed to his. Other views
may be advocated, and other sentiments
may be preferred; but at the same time
he is entitled to a bearing, and all the
more to a patient, respectful, and atten-
tive hearing, because of his defeat and
the overthrow of his cause. What he
says is sure to be worthy of consideTa-
tiOn and the proper answer to be made
to it is the answer of reasoning, and not
the answer of passion or prejudice.
For our own part, we hail with pro-
found satisfaction the fact that Mr..
Davis, the leader of the defeated in the
greatest of civil wars, not only remains
in his native land and among his own
people, who followed him with unexam-
pied enthusiasm and devotion through
out that mighty struggle. bnt that he
remains unframed, enjoying his prop
erty and friends, protected by the laws,
free to 90 and come as he pleases, and
to speak wherever men are willing to
hear him. II seems to us that if there
is anything sublime in his recent history
it is the fact that no vengeance has been
taken by the victorious people of the
United States upon the less fortunate
people of the South, nor any prohibitions
imposed upon them debating the issues
of the great contest not only as a mat
ter of history and philosophy, but also
as matter of sentiment and feeling.
As there was never another civil contest
| that equalled this one in its magnitude.
/ its sacrifices and its heroism, not ONLY
| on one side, but on both, Sc there new
/ er was any other Lost Cause where the
/ losers were held free from all vengeful
/ retaliation after it was over, and the
! victory determined.
| We trust Mr.. Davis may long and en-
/ JOY the affection and respect of his fell
| low citizens. We hold thai he and
/ they-and not he more than they-com-
| mitted an enormous mistake; but we new
/ ertheless respect profoundly the purity
/ of his charicter, the spotless record OF
/ his personal history, and the ability and
/ sincerity which he applied, and still
/ applies, to his work.-N. Y. Sun.

THE railroads south of the Ohio Rlv-
ar have designated the interval be-
tween May 1st and June 1st next as the
tine for a general change of guage from
Eve feet to four feet nine inches, to cor
respond with the uniform guage Of the
7ailroad lines in the Northern and
W ern States. This is the most stu
Dendous undertaking of the kind ever
attempted, the change involving over
ID 900 miles of road, located in ten
states as follows: South Carolina,
/ 800 miles North Carolina, $50 I;
Georgia, 2. Alb Alabama. 1,9O3 Flor
ida, l $50; Mississippi, 776; Louisiana,
313; Kentucky, lib; Tennessee, l.
1856: Virginia, Isl. This change will
make the railroand systems Of the coun-
trv uniform from Maine to California
and from Manitoba to Mexico. 1t will
save the immense expense and incOnve'
nience caused by the transfer of freight
from car to car.

JOSEPH p. BRADLEY, of New Jersey,
who is one of the Judges of the Supreme
Court Of the United States, recently de-
livered an opinion in a case involving
the question of fraud in which he said {:
1T is insisted that the proceedings were
all conducted according to the forms Of
law. Very likely. Some of the most
atrOcious frauds are committed in that
way. Indeed the greater the fraud the
more particular the parties to it often
are to proceed according the strictest
forms OF law" This is the same JO-
seph F. Bradley who, as member of
the Electoral Commission, achieved spe-
cial notOriety, if not infamy, in conse-
quence of the remarkable change of
view he experienced in regard to the
final decision of the Commission on the
night before it was rendered. That
performance has ever since been re-
Rarded as the most shameless fraud of
the present century, but Bradley justi-
fed himself for the part he played in it
by seeking refuge under the "strictest
forms Of law" In the above extract
Bradley accurately, but thoughtlessly
describes the part taken by him and his
seven associates IN the cOnsumation OF
that atIOciOus fraud.

THE Congressional Investigating La
Dor Committee, of which Ex-Governor
Curtin is chairman, went to st. Louis,
last week and on Saturday addressed a
letter to the Executive Board of the
Knights of Labor regarding the serious
losses to the commercial, agricultural
and other interests of the entire coun-
try that have resulted from the labor
troubles on the railroads in the South
west, and earnestly requesting them
through the proper official channels to
discontinue the strike on the railroads
referred TO. Mr.. Hayes, on behalf of
the Knights of Labor Executive Com
mlttee acceded to the request and de-
clared the strike at an end, to take eff
feet on last Tuesday morning. Only a
portion of the strikers will be taken
back by the railroads, the places of a
large number Of them having been filed
by other employees. This strike, which
led to other strikes all over the country
was entirely uncalled for as we'll as un-
authorized, as Mr.. Powderly himself
has publicly declared, and has of course.

OK Saturday last thirty thousand
men quit work in Chicago and walked
ont Of the various shops and factories in
which they were employed because their
employers would not consent to eight
hours' work day at the same wages
they were paying for ten hours work.
In several other cities the same move
ment was inaugurated, and it is esti-
mated that Oh Saturday night at least
one hundred thousand men had struck
for eight hours work and ten hours
pay. There was no very serious distur-
bance on that day il Chicago, the hot
bed of the turbulent foreign element
composed of Germans. Poles and BOhe-
mians, but some bloody work was done
on Tuesdas sight. During the delivery
of an incediary speech by an Anarchist
demagogus in the southwestern portion
of the city squad of police marched by,
close to the speakers stand. Three
bombs were thrown from near the stand
into the midst of the policemen. They
exploded, instantly killing five of the
officers. The police fired on the crowd
with their pistols, and the fire was re-
turned, and this was kept up for some
time, resulting in twenty or more po-
licemen being wounded, many of them
dangerously, and at least fifty of the So
cialists, some of them fatally. There
was riot also in Milwaukee on Tues
day, but it was quelled by the military
without any bloodshed. How this eight
hour movement will be finally adjusted
is hard to tell, unless the rule of pay ing
for labor by the hour is adopted. The
Communists who carry the red flag in
Chicago and other cities are not Ameri.
cans and only few of them are Ameri-
can citizens; they are European vaga-
bonds who never work, but who, like
their revolutionary leader Johann Most,
are bent upon the destruction of the
entire fabric Of peace and order in this
country. They can never succeed in
their unholy purpose and must be put
/ down at all hazards.

Everything Is LsveIy and the Goose
Hangs High.

This expression is a corruption of an
old-fashioned saying that originated in
the early days of this country.
AS most of you know, wild geese,
when they migrate in autumn. form
themselves into lines shaped like letter
V, the lead, flying at the point, the
two lines following as they sail away,
far above the trees, and beyond all
danger from guns-on those cold morn
ings when the air is clear and the sky
beautifully blue,-they seem full OF
glee, and join in a chorus, "Honk,
bOnb, bOHb ~
ANYBODY who has heard those Curl
ously sounding notes, never cOnld mis-
take them. And the folks on the earth
below who beard the birds wild call,
in old times, realized the happiness of
the winged creatures in being so high
and safe. And so It became quite nat
ural. when two persons met each other
under peculiarly favorable circumstan-
ces for this or that enterprise, for them
to say Everything is lovely and the
goose honks high l''-St. Nicholas.
