Pancakes In Variety,

On cold winter mornings pan cakes OF
all kinds ho'd an important place at the
breakfast table. The cherished buckwhea'
cake, most prominent Of all. from Thanks.
giving Day until early Spring is seldom
absent from the morning meal in the gen
uine American household When properly
made, this is the most delicious of griddle
cake. but ii has been against it when made
from yeast or risen over night that it was
difficult to make light and sweet. and that
disagreeablc effects frequently followed its
eating. 1t is found that by the use of the
Royal Baking Powder to raise the batter
these objections have been entirely over
come, and that buck wheat cakes are made
most delicious food. light, sweet, tender
and perfectly wholesome. and can be eaten
by anyone without the slightest digestive
inconvenience. Once tested from the fol
lowing receipt no other will be used: Two
csps Of buckwheat, one cup of wheat -four
two tablespoons of Royal Baking Powder
One-half teaspoonful of salt, all sifted well
together. Mix with milk into thin batter
and bake at once on hot griddle.
The purest and richest syrup is made by
dissolviug in the proportion of three
pounds of sugar TO one pint OF water.
Many persons prefer the flavor of syrup
made Of Orleans sugar to to that made of
the white.
Rice griddle cakes are delicious. The
rice is cooked until perfectly soft, drained
dry, mashed with a spoon until the grains
are will broken up. For each cupful OF
rice take two eggs, one pint of milk, one
heaping teaspoonful of Royal Baking
Powder, onc-half teaspoonful Of salt, and
-four enough to make thin batter.
For hominy cakes take two cupfuls Of
cooked bominy and crush it with potato
masher until it is smooth mass. Add
one level teaspoonful of salt. two teaspoon.
fuls Of Royal Baking Powder. and onr
cupful Of flour. Stir together; then add
by degrees one quart of mile, and lastly
three well beaten eggs. Bake in thin
Gales.
Very delicate and delicious cakes are
made by allowing two teasposnsfuls of
Royal Baking Powder and one-half tea.
spoonful of salt to one quart OF milk, and
sufficient corn meal, mixing all into
smooth, thin batter; no eggs or butter are
used for these. The cakes bake quickly
to deep rich brown, and are extremely
light and tender.
A very delicious, sweet pancake is made
by taking one pint of sweet milk, four eggs.
two tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, two
tablespoonfuls of melted butter, one tea.
spoonful OF Royal Baking Powder, and
flour enough to make a thin batter. Beat
the eggs, whites and yolkes seperate, until
well frothed, stir the butter. sugar, and
one cupful of flour, into which the baking
powder has been mixed, into the yolks,
then add the milk. If needed add more
flour. Bake in small cakes, butter each
one as it comes from the fire, place four
in pile, with very thin layers of any
kind OF sweet jelly between, and powered
sugar ever the top. They should be baked
very thin and four served to each person.

Many of the keepers of big groceries in
this city tell of the large extent to which
oatmeal is used as an article of diet. In
thousands of families q plate or a bowl of
oatmeal %porridge, which ought to be of
the best quality, well boiled, and taken
With cream, is the first thing at breakfast.
The children are apt to be very FOND of it.
1t Is wholesome, nutritious and advan-
tageous to the digestion. 1t is surprising
that more people do not learn how to pre-.
pare for the breakfast table oatmeal
cakes, those thin, crisp, most excellent
biscuits which one ind in all households
in Scotland, and which ought to be eaten
with fresh milk. They are easily made,
worth making, possess most of the merits
of porridge, and are a desirable change
from u at times. The Scotch are also
large of peasemeal, which they
make into bannocks or brose. good for
hungry people and racy to the taste.
When the wheat crop is short and -four is
dear, both oatmeal and peasemeal might
be used to advantage in more American
families than have ever tried them.-New

Some of the upland regions of Brazil,
especially near the city of Barbacena, are
marked by the appearance of great rugged
Ii flows in the sides and slopes of many
of the rolling, grass covered hills. They
are land slips, caused by the existence OF
springs, and present an appearance pict.
uresque in the extreme. Their sides are
worn into every imaginable shape, OF
~pinnacles. domes, pointed towers, but.
tresses and cavities, with ravines, mar.
row, deep and precipitous, or wide, open
spaces, surrounded by lofty, perpendicu.
lar walls, riven by creeks and ready tc
fall. But their great charm lies in their
color. The prevailing tint is u deep In.
dian red, which combined with the green
hills and the blue sky, bearing its glisten.
ing white clouds. constitutes a charming
combination of tones. Any one of these
barrancas, as they are called, offers ex
cellent opportunities to the geologist.-

THE CONTEST INSTITUTED.
Mai. GIafcke Commences Proceedings
Against T.. Joe Fisher.

THE LEADER has several times stated
that Mai. Glafcke intended contesting the
election of 7. Joe Fisher as assessor. The
gentleman Yesterday instituted proceed
ings in the district court by the filing of a
petition, statement and complaint. Hon.
J.. G, Baird is Mr.. Glafcke's attorney.
The material portion Of the complaint
recites that there was error in the canvass
and return of the votes cast in the first
precinct of the city of Cheyenne in that
the judges and clerks of election at this
precinct failed to credit Herman Glafcke
with no less than three votes which were
deposited there for him; that further
error was committed in that in not less
than three instances votes cast for j.. w.
Fisher were accredited to 7. Joe Fisher.
The same charges are made with relation
to the second precinct of the city Of Chey-
enne.
In the summing up it is stated that a
fair and proper count will show that OF
all the votes cast in the county L. Joe
Fisher received 1882, and Herman Olaf.
cke 1912, and Jos. W. Fisher 7 votes.
The plaintiff petitions that a subpoena
shall issue against the SAID 7. Joe Fisher,
and that he may be served Herewith ac-
cording to law; that the said court shall
proceed to take evidence herein and to
count and canvass the votes cast in the
first and SECOND nrecincts of Cheyenne.

Digest and be jolly,

Did ever anyone see a Jolly d~yspeptic2
We trow not. What natural cheerfulness
is proof against the almost ceaseless bodily
annoyance of chronic Indigestion People
whose stomachs are constantly disturbed
exhibit the utmost peevishness and nerv-
Gus irritability. Happily for them-since
the irritable and nervous prematurely fret
themselves into the grave-tranquility of
the stomach and renewed good temper
await them in a sure quarter, if they will
but seek it. The genial stomachic, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, breeds cheerful
ness by insuring its essential pre-condition
easy digestion. Biliousness, too, and
constipation, malevolent companions Of
the banshee, dyspepsia, vanish alter a
briet but steady course of the national
alternative. Many q temper naturally
sweet, but continually soured by the COM
bined attack of this trio of imps, passes
the boundary of monomania. Prevent
this possibility with the Bitters. Malarial
%fevers, rheumatism, kidney complaints and
debility are truly relieved by this standard
medicine.

Gnt tale Of the well merited discontinue

not q little besmudged with dirt and the
worse for wear, entered one of the grand

down In an easy chair, and said he wished

exquisitely dressed and perfumed pro
prietor, 1--WE don't shave peasants here;

Deputy Sheriff Moore and Special
Deputy Charlton returned to the city last
evening after a hunt of forty eight hours
for the Vannice murderer. They searched
diligently in the hills west of the city, but
did not find any tangible trace of the fee,
ing criminal. Mr.. Moore is now of the
firm belief that the man Travelled eastward
and thinks that he was seen near Egbert
Saturday afternoon.
Sheriff S~harpless returned from Lara
mic last night. The tramp he followed
was. captured near Tie Siding Monday
night, taken to Laramie and released al
noon yesterday, being identified by &
Cheyenne man. He very nearly answered

To the Editor OF The Leader.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., Dec. Ill beg t.
suggest that the police force of this city
be increased and that the beats be so ar
ranged tina. some protection may be af
forded the resident portions of our city,
and l believe that in offering this sug.
gestion | voice the unanimous sentiments
of those interested.
Our present force aside from being too
small is confined wholly to the business
portion OF the city and, as now con-
structed, is entirely inefficient. The bust
ness men recognizing this fact have been
compelled to employ a special Waterman
to guard their property.
The property holders in the resident
portions of our city pay taxes in the same
proportion as those in the business per
ton, and from any course of reasoning
are entitled to the same protection,
Mr.. Vannice well knew how useless It
would be to appeal to the authorities to
recover the money stolen from his home
last Thursday, and in ~endeavoring to re-
cover it himself lost his life. The robber
and murderer is still at large, and each
hour the chances of capturing him grow
beautifully less.
The additional expense to afford'the pro-
lection l will suggest not be as much ayear
as the pursuit of one criminal, and it is
quite probable that more than one good
may escape the hand of an assas-
sin.
l beg the board of aldermen to consider
this matter. A SUBURBAN RESIDENT.
