Juvenile Housebreakers.

Last Sunday week the house of Abraham
Haas, corner of 9Th and L streets southeast.
was entered by small boys, who succeeded in
getting into back room, but were unable to
force into the store, where there is soda foun-
tain. In the absence of something more
valuable the boys carried off some cigarette
pictures. Policeman Branson investigated the
case and arrested Patrick Gillice and John
Casey. They were convicted in the Police
Court yesterday afternoon of larceny, and the
court suspended sentence, with the under
standing that the boys would be sent out of
the city-Casey to a Baltimore reformatory
and the other boy to his brother in Indiana.

What a Porterhouse Steak Is.

Very few people who sit down to a
good breakfast of ''porterhouse" steak
could tell, were they asked, what part
of a bullock this choice tidbit is cut
from. The 'porterhouse' is that por-
ton of the beef either side of the spine
beginning where the ribs end and ex-
tending along to where the hip bone
begins The tenderloin should form a
part of the porterhouse. This is a mar
row strip of succulent and tender flesh
extending along and protecting the in
ner sides of the spinal column. Its
high price is due to its choice quality,
and the fact that even in the largest
bullocks there are not above ten to
twelve pounds of tenderloins- The
term ''porterhouse" is of English
derivation, and it has no equivalent in
either the German or French language,
while tenderloin. on the other hand,
Is known among the Germans as '.lum-
mel" and '.fillet, by which latter name
it Is also known among the French
The term s'porterhouse" probably
originated from the eating-houses and
inns of England, also known as porter
and ale houses. A customary order
was: Give me . porter and steak. :"
and in time the name ''porterhouse"
probably was applied to the choice
pieces of steak ~ distinguished from
the more ordinary kinda-Notes and

The Democrats Must Go.

Batcheller does not believe in keeping
any Democrats in Office. He declares
that he will get rid of every Demo

ment who has entered the classified
service without being regularly certi-
fed by the Civil-Service Commission.
Those who, during the last admins
tration. passed ''some sort of exami-

administration adopted General
Batcheiler's rule. there would not
have been Republican clerk left in
any of the departments Prior to
January Is. 1888. every clerk was APP

HOW TO COOK MEATS.
Roasts Cooked I'm Oysns q Delusion ans
Snare.

Roasts Cooked I'm Ovens q Delusion and
Snare.
Baked meat is an abomination. So
called .roast" meat cooked in ovens Is
delusion and a snare.
Roast meat is roast meat. and in or
der to roast you must have an open
fire, before which yonr joint is placed
in such a manner that the air circulates
freely around it.
The reason why it is Objectionable
to cook meat by baking it in an oven
unless it be big bakers oven-is that
il is diff cult. if not impossible, to keep
an ordinary oven in a cooking-stove
clean and well ventilated. The sides,
roof and floor of the oven get bespat-
tered with particles of fat and spots of
gravy during the baking process, and
these particles become charred. and
thus fill the oven with ammonia and
with a foul atmosphere of empyreu-
matte oils. by which terrible word the
chemists indicate the unwholesome
vapors generated through the action
of fire.
In the process of roasting before an
open fire, these empyreumatic odors
are indeed generated. whereas they are
imprisoned in the oven. and there
penetrate the meat, destroy its flavor,
and render it more or less insipid.
Meat, however. may be baked in
pies, because in this case its surface,
being protected by the crust. can not
be charred and impregnated with the
foul empyreumatic oils. Meat baked
in a pie-crust amounts in reality to a
stewing operation. the paste forming.
as it were. a stewpan with its lid.
Frequent basting is essential to sue
cessful roasting. Otherwise. the CO.
agulated surface of the meat would
crovass during the operation and al
low an escape of the juice The melt
ed fat poured over the meat penetrates
into every crack. and by means of the
higher temperature of the fat, the sur
face of the meat is maintained in an
impervious state. Louisville Courier
Journal.

The untiring vigilance of Democrats
Is causing uneasiness among our Re-

this paragraph from the Chicago Inter
Ocean:
The Corrier,Journal remarks that sAHeEt
cans do not know how to rest That Is espe-
cialiy true of the Democratic party. They
don't seem to know how, and yet the people
have gwen them = first-class opportunity"
No. the people do not expect the
Democratic party to rest At the last
election a majority of loo. 900 declared
in favor of Democratic principles, and
the people expect the party to pro-
claim them and uphold them without
resting, without hasting.
Each day makes palmer the evil
tendencies of the Administration of
Mr.. Harrison Every pledge concern
ing the civil service has been violated.
Every promise made in behalf of the
tariff has come to naught The sur
plus in the Treasury is being squan-
dered recklessly by every department.
while the conduct of the Pension
Office has reached the proportions of
a National scandal

tees of the Republican party are un-
