HOW TO Dress ana COOK Them SO as TO
Make a Feast Fit for the Gods.
[St. Paul Pioneer-Press.1
"There," said young man with a shot
gun, and a dog and bag of birds, as he
got off train at the Union Depot yester-
day; ''that's something yoT don't find
around here very often, and L tell you a
mans in luck when he drops one. l got a
brace yesterday" and he held up pair Of
handsome ducks. The reporter gazed rather
vacantly at them and said they were nice
birds. ''Nice birds! Well, I should say so.
Those are genuine canvas backs. They're
mighty scarce in this country. Good eat
ing? Why, there's nothing like it in the
world. It's just time for them now. The
season begins about the middle of Novem-
Der and lasts till February. These are
young ones, and pretty fat. They'll weigh,
probably, about five pounds apiece. See,
you can tell by the brown color of these
notified breasts that they are young
birds. You want to be awful careful about
handling them, too. If dog gets at them,
or you bang 'em around much, the flesh
gets soft and no good. Now let me tell you
how to dress and cook them. Why, Of
course can cook. A man that can't cook
his own ducks is no earthly good. Take
your brace of young ducks-and get the
females if you can, for they're much ten
derer-piclI them carefully and then draw
them. Be very careful to take the entrails
out entire and not cut them. Don't wash
them at al, for they're better without it,
Sprinkle them with celery chopped fine,
and cook 'em for fifteen minutes over
rOusing hot fire. A little currant jelly goes
pretty well with them. Make your mouth
water? Well, it ought to. Come up to the
house at four and try them. Oh, you must.
I'n cook them myself, and you see if Pm
not right.U

piled: ooh, I have lived there before, and

A STRANGE DEATH.
How Recent Execution in London Caused
the Decease of a London Laborer.

How a Recent Execution in London Caused
the Decease of a London LabOrer.
London Echo.1
A death Of a remarkable character, con-
nected with the execution of the two muir
derers, Orrock and Harris, at Newgate, on
Monday last, was the subject of an inquiry
yesterday afternoon at the Southwark
Court, by Coroner Langham. Eliza Kate
Williamson deposed that she resided at No.
4 Liant street, Borough, and was the wife Of
the deceased, Alexander Ben Williamson,
aged forty five, who was a laborer in
foundry. He had enjoyed very good health,
but now and again had complained of pains
in his head. He came home from work on
Monday night apparently quite well, and
after tea sent witness for evening news
paper in order TO read the account of the
executions. She returned with the paper
and he read the account aloud, hut stopped
at intervals, quite overcome with emotion,
and he cried several times. Witness begged
him to put the paper away, saying she did
not want to hear any more about it, but he
would not do SO, and completed the account
to himself.
They then went to bed, but about 80 a.
IN. the witness was awakened by a noise, and
found the deceased struggling by her side
and trying TO call out something about the
execution. She tried to rouse him, but he
fell ON the floor and continued struggling
and mutter ng after she lifted him back
on the bed. He then vomited, and after
ward fell into a stupor, from which he
never rallied. A doctor was obtained, but
death ensued about twenty hours
after witness first noticed the deceased
struggling. In answer to the Coroner the
witness added that the deceased was quite
sober on Monday. Mr.. Alfred Matcham,
parish surgeon, deposed that death was
due to apoplexy, which he had no doubt
was brought on by the excitement cOnse-
quent on reading and dwelling upon the
