LRTIFIClAL EGGS.
An Angry Pittsburgh Woman Eniightens

An Angry Pittsburgh Woman Enlightens
the Board of Health.
Artificial eggs have been sold in tho
Pittsburgh market and offered to the
public in place of real ones A woman
walked into the Office of the Board Of
Health with basket containing four
dozens of eggs. "All these eggs are
manufactured, and not single one of
them has been laid by hem" the
officers. What am to do about the
matter?' she then asked.
The gentleman picked up one of the
eggs, looked at it, and he then gazed at
the woman in astonishment, saying:
What is wrong with the eggs?n They
look all right, and don't see any diff
ference between them and any other
eggs. You mean to state that they are
manufactured? They may be rotten,
but | don't think that this egg was
made by the mere ingenuity of any
human mind"
well, then, you are just little
mistaken; that is all" said the woman,
land | will prove ii to you. Look hero
now at this egg"
She then took one OF them from tho
basket and broke it, and, when the off,
GERS observed tho yell1, their faces bore
the evidence OF most unmistakable won-
der. In shape the yelk was similar to
that of a real egg, but its color differed
somewhat from that article, being
darker and of browner tint than that
in the ordinary egg. Besides thar,
however, the yel1 of the false egg con-
sisted OF a more jelly-like substance.
Its composition appeared 70 contain

actly like the white of the real egg.
1t had the same transparent appear
ance. and the imitation seemed to be
perfect. But the most puzzling thing
is the shell. There is no difference
noticeable to the eye at all, and it is
not wonderful that any one should buy
such an egg as real hen fruit.
The entire article, outside of the
yclh, 10 h pcflcCJ COulIeEpdrD vi any
thing we see in the real egg. The
woman bought them in the market at
thirty cents a dozen.
~ would like you to go to the mar
ket and arrest the man." the woman
said to one of the officials. II do not
think he has any right TO sell false
eggs as good ones.
But the officers refused to do that on
the ground that he had no proof OF tho
eggs being in any way dangerous to
the health.
ave can not do any thing against
the man unless we have evidence of
the article being made up of ingredi-
onts imparing the health of any one
who eats it," was the explanation.
The name of the imitation egg ven-
der could not be learned, but it was
stated that he was not from this city.

TRAVELLING IN TURKEY.
Sights Along the Railroads aud in Dirty
Country Villages.

Country Villages.
The European railways are now open
to Vienna and this city is blessed with
a daily mail. The route from Vienna
TO Constantinople by rail is an interest
ing one, since it gives the traveller a
view OF the village life OF tho Turks,
which has hitherto been beyond the
reach OF those who have not the time or
the endurance for caravan travel. But
the lamentations Of the travellers who
come by the new railway over the pri-
vations of the route are painful. A man
sallies forth glcefully from Vienna in
the midst OF luxury to take a run to
Constantinople. He is told Chat he
can reach his destination in forty
seven hours, and makes up his mind
that he can endure any thing in tire
way OF privation for that time. In
twenty-four hours he is convinced that
he will die of starvation before he has
arrived at the end OF his journey. A
dirty and ragged populace offer him
water at every station for ii good price
At some stations men propose TO him
to buy bits OF terribly black bread and
cubes of lambs livers fried at a penny
u handful, the vendors horny fist being
measure. But the traditional railway
restaurant, with its formal spiendor of
glassware and its decorative food prep
arations, is totally lacking. If in one
place he can find restaurant, its high
est achievement in the way OF a dinner
is dish of green peppers stcwed and a
cup of black coffee. On arriving al
any station where the unusual number
OF officials implies Importance. the
tourist will feel hope reviving within
him. But on asking for the restaurant

STOCK INTERESTS NORTH.
Signs For the Future
A Mild Winter.

A correspondent, writing from Malad,
Idaho, Gays: We are enjoying beautiful
weather, and as a result stock men
generally are feeling good, with the ex-
pectation of having a light winter and
better prices for their cattle next spring.
The Senate committee, which recently
held session in Chicago, TO investigate
whether or not ombination existed
there, seemed to stimulate prices for
time, and there are men here who are
confident that such combine does ex-
lst but how to get at the bottom of it
is the ques ion. One thing is certain,
cattle are bJund to come up in the very
near future, and the only astonishing
part Of the business is that they have
remained so low for so long a time.
Next year will certainly commence the
dawn of better day and more pros
porous times for the cattle men
throughout the country, and if there
are any class of men who are deserving
uf prosperity it is the men who depend
upon this industry fer their support.
AS the cattle business stands to dav
the man who has the least in NUMBER
is the more lucky individual, unless he
is we'll prepared to hold them until the
long-looked for higher prices come
around. The cattle business is a losing
game, and if the present prices should
hold out for another two years it would
DE the means of bankrupting majority
of the people who now own any great
number of stock. Nothing but a rise
in the price of beef and stock cattle will
save these men from financial ruin.
But. as | said before, better times are
confidently looked for, and 1 can ina
CINE of nothing to stop them coming
within the next year. l would feel safe
in buying stock cattle during the COM
ing winter. l am that confident of the
market coming to nearly where ii
properly belongs.

HEBER is quite dull at present; the
only excitement visible is when Mark
Jetfs opens out box of more than
usually lovely holiday presents.
Mr.. TURNER has also received splen-
did stock of Christmas goods; and
right here we will take the opportunity
of concentrating Mr.. Turner upon the
satisfactory termination of the Law suit
concerning his mill property, which
has been dragging through the courts
for the past three years.
Mr.. JOHN and Mrs. Mary Hamilton,
two of Reber's first settlers" are here
on brief visit to relatives and friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hamilton have for the
past few years resided in the southern
part of Utah, some few miles below
Cedar City, where their beautiful home
is literally halfway house for a host
of friends; no one who has experienced
their generous hospitality can ever for
get "Hamilton's Fort Everyone is
delighted to welcome them here, and
extends most cordial welcome to
come again.
The juvenile concert given last week
was in most respects success; as al
ways, though, in the case of
first appearances, some were con-
siderably frightened. The tableaux
were fine, and the varied nature
of these, rendered this portion of the
programme most interesting; the fairy
play was very well done, the young
people acquitting themselves in man
ner, it would not be amiss if some of the
home troupe here were to copy; they
were well up in their lines and acted
with spirit throughout the piece.
AwAvE of sadness and gloom has
been cast over the entire community by
the news received on Tuesday night of
the death of Mrs. iGeorgana Clyde, late
of Heber City, but who, since her mar
rlage has resided some fifteen miles
northeast of here on the Provo River.
The lady had been ailing for some time,
but still, 1t was a severe shock to
everyone when the sad news was
learned. She was not yet % years of
age, and oh, how pitifuI to see one in
the first bloom of youthful beauty cut
Oft from love and happiness. She is
sincerely mourned by all classes. and
true and heartfelt sympathy is extended
to the grief stricken husband and fam
lily. The funeral services will be held
