Iotoleroble Eccen,rlcs.


What is called eccentricity is, in nine
cases out OF ten, either aifectation or
the result of mental disease. tits said
of many man who deserves TO be os-
tracised from society for violating its
proprieties, "What an oddly he is
how very eccontricw intolerance,
bearishness, brutal disregard OF the
requirements of good breeding, per-
sonal slovenlinesssm fact any marked
departure from the conventional rules
which govern the conduct of decent
people, is tolerated and even admired
in persons who, by persistently and
methodically ignoring tho obligations
OF courtesy and delicacy, have obtained
n reputation for eccentricity. We have
no good word for nuisances OF this
class, and no feeling except pity and
contempt for those who defer TO and
believe in them. II man brings the
manners and habits OF n savage into
civilized society, he ought to be
drummed out OF it II sane, or put un-
der wholesome restraint II lunstic.-

Pure Altar of Roses.

The rose gardens of Ghazepore, q
town of British India, are fields in
which small rose bushes are planted in
rows. In the morning they are red
with blossoms, but before midday
these are all gathered and their leaves
distilled in clay stills, with twice their
weight in water. The water which
comes over is placed in open vessels,
covered with a moist muslin cloth, to
keep out the dust and flies, and ex-
posed all night to the cool air. In the
morning thin film of oil has collected
on the top, which is swept off with q
feather, and carefully transferred TO q
small phial. This is repeated night
after night, till nearly the whole Of tho
oil is separated from the water.
Twenty thousand roses are required TO
yield rupee-weight Qess than half
an ounce) Of oil, which sells for fifty
dollars. Pure altar OF roses is seldom
met with. That which is sold IN this
country is diluted with sandal-wood
oil, or with sweet salad oils. House

uNLEAvsNEp BREAD.
How 1t Is Baked Under tho supervislo
of New YOrk's Grand Rabbi.

How 1t Is Baked Under tho Supervision
OF New York's Grand Rabbi
Matte is the German word for tho
thin, Hat disks OF unleavened bread
which the Hebrews eat, In celebration
of the feast OF the Passover. The best
matte biscuit in New York City, and
that preferred by all strictly orthodox
Jews, is made by hand under the SUI
pervision OF tho Grand Rabbi Joseph.
Before this eminent rabbi came hero
from Russia, mates were made by
machiiery. Even now they are so
made by certain Hebrew rabbis, but
that is contrary to all customs and
tradition. In the Norfolk street ba-
kerry, where Grand Rabbi Joseph's APP
proved matte is made. sixty girls and
women are employed. The flour
from which the dough is made is
specially ground in mill at West
Nyack by Jews, from carefully
selected wheat. Great caro- is
taken that no impurities get
into the wheat. After it IL ground,
a sample is carried to Grand Rabbi
Joseph. and he approves OF it II 1t
meets his requirements. With his
consent it is put in clean now barrels
and brought to the balSeshop. The
barrels of -four are slowed carefully
alongside the wall Two mon knead
the dough in wooden dishes; one car
ries flour and another water from op
posite corners. There is one man TO
ladle the -four from the bin into tho
wooden dough-tray, another to pour q
cup of water into the tray afterward.
1t is absolutely necessary that there
should be two men. as, II only ono
were employed, specks of flour would
get into the water. and drops OF water
into the flour, and the -four might
get sour. The two men rest while not
pouring flour or water into the dough-
trays and until the dough is carried
into the adjoining room. The dough
is kneaded hard. and care is taken to
prevent impurities from getting into
1t anywhere. It is now roll OF
dough weighing about ten pounds.
This is cut into chunks by one
man. and carried by another to tho
women, who proceed to roll ont tho
chunks into fat dough. Men pick up
he fiat pieces and toss them TO another
set OF men, who roll over them two
lets Of wheels, impressing little dia-
nonds on the biscuits. They are then |
placed upon ladle. Another man
Seeps showing them into an oven, pull
ng them out and tossing them upon
,ables The women first ilatten the |
Tough with their hands. While this is
lone, a Hebrew comes with sand-paper |
Ind glass and removes any specks OF |
Tough from the roiling-pins. The
women stand close together and beat a
continuous tattoo upon the board. The
baking of mates can only be carried
IN during daylight. The mates sold
1t this bakery bring eleven and twelve
,ents pound. while the machine
made fetch six and seven cents just
before Passover finer and more cost
~ matte is baked for the holy men
among the Hebrews.-Frank Leslie's

The statement of the Evansville
Journal, soon after the Kentucky
Press Association visited that city, TO
the effect that the cost of entertaining
the visitors was grudgingly paid by
the Business Mems Association, turn
ed out to be Incorrect. The reporter
of the Journal was misinformed in
the matter. The Secretary of the
Business Mems Association has made
this explanation; "The Reception
Committee was not certain that the
X. P. A. would be our guests until
about two hours before they arrived
and Immediately decided if they did
arrive in time for dinner we would
have them as our guests. 1t is Gus
tomary to consult the Board of Direc-
tors before the expenditure of any b.
NJ. A. money-in fact this is the law
and when the bill was presented 1t
was paid Immediately and without
comment, but in order to know who
was responsible for the precedent,
some of the Board wanted it explain
ed and demanded that they be not
flied hereafter of such expenses" The
journal reporter heard of the Incl
deat without knowing the particulars
and put an erroneous construction
upon it. Both the Journal and the
b. M. A. regretted the wrongful i'm
preston created and fastened to as
sure the visitors of the cordiality aud
genuineness of the welcome extend
ed them. The X. p, A. fully apprc-
ciated their hospitality and all who
were present will revertto the visit
as one of the pleasaptest incidents of
the recent meeting.

ABOUT THE CITY.
Sam Jones Talks Against
the Ball Room.
HE DEsPIsEs THE UsURER.
How a Couple Of Men and Women
4 We're Given Cold Ride
Yesterday Morning.

Sam Jones spoke last night at the
Pavilion to as large an audience as that
which greeted him when he commenced
services here last Sunday night, every
available foot of space in the auditorium
being occupied by an eager crowd which
had commenced to assemble an hour be-
fore the services began. In his quaint
manner he preached about Social Purity,
and during the course of his remarks he
launched forth quite TRADE against
dancing. Nineteen out of every twenty
Of the girls that are married, meet their
downfall in the ballroom" he said
and then he shouted vehemently.
''There is nothing so damnable
as the ball-room-it is quite as bad as the
barroom, and is like it in one way, for
the barroom ruins the men and the BALI
room debauches the women. Purity is
the key to heaven, and he that is pure is
pious, and he that is impure is impious.
Nature gives us in the ermine an exam
Pile of how we should be. This animal
is clean and pure, and when the hunters
want to catch it they can always do SO
by putting mud and dirt on the trail
along which it passes, for when the
ermine comes to the dirt it lays down,
afraid of the impurity. Why cannot we
be like it, and avoid the very appearance
of evil"
Speaking later on about covetousness
and avarice, he said that the meanest
man in the world is the usurer who lends
money to poor devil and then having
got him in his clutches squeezes and
squeezes until he has got every cent that
his victim has got. Yet how many men
get rich that way, he said, and then
added in conclusion that if he went
among the churches of Los Angeles he
would bet that three-fourths of their in
mates during service time would be mon
eyed men.
The vast audience listened to the vary
ing intonations with marked attention,
and it is worthy of note that although he
spoke for over an hour not soul but
those who were half suf'ocated by the
severe crowding left the building.

A COLD RIDE.
Given to Five Unlucky People By

Given to Five Unlucky People By
the Police.
Ex-officer Gates reported to Chief
Cooney last Wednesday that he had
discovered den of thieves down in the
river bottom-some half a dozen dan
gerous characters living together in
tent. He said he had been watching
them for some time and had positive
proof of the fact that they were pro-
fessionals of the deepest.dyed type. The
Chief accepted his statement and or
dered that raid should be made.
Yesterday morning at 3 O'Clock the
wagon was sent down to the spot carry
ing several brave men prepared to meet
any kind Of frantic and bloody resist
ance that might be offered. The tent
was found with the assistance of Gates
who had been "detectiving" the place
for some time, and the occupants were
ordered to surrender. They turned out
to be two men, their wives and one
baby. Outside the tent another des-
perado was found asleep, wrapped up in
blanket. He had come in late in the
evening from San Fernando where
he had been in search of
work and had staid outside
unwilling to wake the women and child
by entering the tent. The police ordered
the women to put on their clothes and to
follow them and the men to the patrol
wagon. There was good deal OF shiver-
ing and crying, but the authority of the
law demanded instant obedience. The
desperate characters" were loaded into
the wagon and the tent was thoroughly
searched. Nostolen goods were found,
put everything in the tent bore evidence
to the poverty and honesty of it's occu-
pants. All five were taken to the police
station, and their names entered on the
police books as suspected" In the
morning Chief Cooney appeared on the
scene and examined the great capture.
The men were laborers and all perfectly
able to give good account of themselves.
They and their wives we're allowed to 60
with an apology, aud the members of the
force who had taken hand in the raid
we're seen during the day wandering
around and asking for somebody to kick
