Apple Butter.

Where apple butter is not made on a
large scale very good article may be
made as follows: Take twenty gallons of
cider just from the press and made from
good, sound apples, and boil it down to
ten gallons. Then apples enough are
pared and cored (the cores and bruised
spots taken out, and the apples quarter
ed to make from ten to twelve gallons
dry measure. If the cider is much acid,
the apples should be less so, and vice
versa. Rambo apples make the best of
apple butter although the various kinds
of pippins usually found in orchards are
equally as good. These twenty gallons
of apples, when properly cooked, will
make about seven gallons of good old
fashioned butter, provided the stirring is
kept constantly going on during the pro-
cess; otherwise the butter is very apt TO
acquire a burnt taste. 1t usually takes
from six to eight hours constant stirring
before taking it off the fire. Spices to
suit the taste are added some minutes be-
fore the kettle and contents are removed
from the fire. There is no getting over
the fact, however, that such butter costs
all it will sell for if we consider the labor
it takes. But a supply of this favorite
article OF creature comforts" is treas
ure which no good housewife would deny
herself merely for the sake of the little
extra labor it requires.

OUNCE PRESERVES.

Pare, core, and weigh; first stew in wa
ter and then add as many pounds of su-
gar as there were of the uncooked fruit
and simply scald them through. Ounces,
currants, grapes, and other fruits to be
jellied should not have sugar added until
the chief cooking is done. Lack of
knowing this causes many failures to get
good jeIlies and preserves, by inexperi-
enced housekeepers). To prevent mould,
cover the top of the jars of preserves or
jellies with writing paper dipped in al
cohol.

FIGHT WITH A LYNX.

A few nights since man named
Scarborough was left alone at one
of the camps of Goldberg's lime
kiln, on Castle creek. AS Indians
or thieves do not infest that region
he retired without fear, and wrapped
in his blankets and slumbcr was
soon dreaming of fairer scenes
than the everyday labors of life.
All dreams must come to an end,
and his were interrupted in rather
startling manner, by the appearance
and onslaught of lynx, which
jumped upon him. BY an accidental
motion he managed to catch the
ferocious animal by the throat, and
fastening his strong fingers around
the windpipe of the brute, he hung
on with the desperation of fight
for life, The blankets protected
him somewhat from the struggles of
the brute, and in few minutes he
had the satisfaction of feeling that
the animal was in deaths throes.
The lynx was a large one and its
skin remains in camp as a trophy of
the adventure. 1t is very rarely
that these animals, which are larger
than the wildcat and smaller than
the panther, will attack human
being, but that they are an enemy
which campers may well fear, this
incident amply illustrates. Phoenix

those annoyed at late corners to

late and started, with squeaky boots,
to walk the whole length of the side
gallery. The pastor, who was pray

eyes, and, pointing long finger to
the disturber, said: "You sit down
right where you are" He then re-
sumed his prayer.

WASHINGTON.


TO LIGHT THE STATUE or LIBERTY.
WASHINGTON, Nov. lS,-Secretary OF
the lighthouse board, Conc ander Pick
ing, has telegraphed to Commander Ben
ham, inspector Of the third lighthouse
district, which embraces Bedloe's Island
within its limits, to take steps for light
ing the Bartholdi Statue OF Liberty az
soon as possible.
OUR HEw CRUISERS.
WASHINGTON, Nov. lS-Mr. Cramp,
the leaoing ship builder of the Delaware,
and Of America, who mas been here few
days, says that the reports that American
ship-builders will not compete for the
construction OF the new cruisers,
for which the navy depart
ment has advertised for proposals,
are Incorrect. On the contrary, he
expects that there will be a considerable
number Of bids from Americans. The
fact that no bids have yet been fled
proves nothing, for It is not the habit OF
contractors to file their bids until the
last moment. There are many reasons for
this. Time Is an important element in
making estimates Of the cost Of construc-
tion, and It might happen that, II bids
should be fled early, war might occur
or some great crisis might hap
pen which would greatly change the cost
Of the materials of CON tructioD, and put
the bidder at Il great disadvantage. More.
over, the bidder Is always spprehensive
that something may happen TO disclose TO
his rivals the nature OF his bid II II shall
be accessible to any one long before the
day Of the opening OF the bids.
No such danger Is apprehended
rom the misconduct Of any one
in office. But this may be said 10 be "a
suspicion which all bidders have; and
there were times during the war when
knowledge OF the details Of the bid Of a
contractor was improperly conveyed TO
rival. 1t Is not to be eIpt cted, therefore,
that bids will be filed until shortly before
the time within which they are TO be
opened. There are two very severe
conditions attached TO the bids for
the cruisers. One is the large check
which all bidders have TO forfeit In the
event that they decline TO take the con-
tract should It be awarded to them the
other is the Indemnity which the con-
tractor Is required 70 furnish the govern
ment for the satisfactory pc Torrance OF
bis contract. Both OF these conditions
responsible contractors all admit, how
ever, are proper, and, in fact, are
necessary for the adequate protection Of
the government. The government officials
who have charge Of the bids say that the
habit which the contractors have OF ding
bids at the last moment is often the rea-
son why there are so many errors and
why bidders are embarrassed. IL has
happened on some important occasions
that the contractors In holding their bids
open TO the last moment have In the
haste placed their figures In the wrong
column, and the result has been oisas-

the evidence was about the same.
except that Miss WATSON strengthened
ner sta ement by producing the note
Mclaughlin wrote her while In Texas.
ana also the license to marry that he pro-
cured, besides several letters he has
written to her since his Incarceration in
jail here.
The defense produced one or two other
witnesses with view OF breaking down
the evidence Of Miss WATSON, but what
they knew changed the situation very
little. The entire volume OF evidence Is
circumstantial except the confessions
made by Mclaughlin TO the brother of
Mrs, Watkins and to Miss WATSON. The
defense is an alibi, but is no better sus.
tanned than at the WATSON trial, though
there Is some slight evidence In support
Of it.
The general opinion is that had WATSON
and Mclaughlin been tried together
prior TO the killing OF Watkins, neither
would have been convicted, as the evil.
dence brought forward by Mrs. Watkins
could not have been obtained by the gov.
eminent without her assistance. On the
gallows WATSON claimed that he was the
victim OF prejudice, aud had to die for
the satisfaction Of his enemies, not for
the murder OF Henry Martin but for the
killing OF Watkins In self-defense, In
short that he was prosecuted by Mrs.
watkins and her money, and prosecuted
by the government; that he was poor and
had no means to cope with the rich
widow. de did not divulge Anything
damaging to Mclaughlin, simply saying
Johnny had money TO back him and would
never be convicted.
Mclaughlin is an orphan, highly con-
nected, and is said to be liberal, peace
able, kind-hearted young man, except
when drinking, aud then he is very wild
and easily led astry He is a nephew of
ex-Gov. Benjamin Burney and Wesley
Burney, both highly respected aud
wealthy citizens of the Chickasaw nation,
and also Of Mrs j. j. McAlister, wife Of

wealthy rden in the Indian country, and

not been, no one can blame them for their
