WHITE HOUSE KITCHEN.
What 1t Looks Like and the Way In
Which It Is Arranged.

What 1t Looks Like and the Way In
Which 1t Is Arranged.
The kitchen Of the presidential man.
sion in Washington is a place deserv.
ing of more attention than is bestowed
upon kitchens in general. 1t was here
that the famous dinners which in
President Arthur's time were so nota-
BILE feature of Washington life were
prepared, and here that the banquet
tables of other Presidents have been
supplied with toothsome delicacies and
substantials. The kitchen, which is
presided over by French cook, is a
large square room, we'll ventilated,
with range along the east wall, and
large dressing-table in the center.
The floor is covered with oil-cloth and
high arched ceiling surmounts the
room. Opposite the kitchen and
across the long corridor is the Office of
the steward, Hugo Ziemann. He it is
who has the entire direction OF the
provisioning OF the presidential man.
sion, and the French chef displays the
niceties OF his art in serving up In the
best style the fare provided by the
steward. General Jackson's old kitch-
en- is at the farther end of the corridor,
opposite the billiard-room. 1t is now
used for hosting machinery and stor-
age.
The cooks, when on duty, are
dressed all in white, with cooks caps
on their heads. They are all male, for
a Frenchman can not admit that a
woman can make good cook.
1t is perhaps a matter of doubt
whether. If the personal inclinations
OF the presidential household were
alone involved, the daily White House
menu would not be mnch more simple
than 1t usually is. A gentleman who
recently dined with the President says
on this point: 1T was a plain-course
dinner. The President was at the
head of the table. I was the only one
present not a member of the executive
family. We talked about home mat
ters, and never touched on politics.
He said he hadn't had q tender steak
since he had been here. The Hsrri-
sons are plain, home people. Mrs.
Harrison is good housekeeper and
she does not like the restraint at the
White House. would not be sur
prised to find her some of these morn
ings down at the Central market doing
her own buying. She is used to that
sort of thing. The President is used
TO plain cooking, and ! don't, think he
can live on the gingerbread style Of
cuisine which that Chicago cook turns
out None Of the HARRISON family is
used to It, and II they don't have
change Of diet they will all have the
dyspepsia In less than six months. -

DR.. Howard Crosby has succeeded by
a decisive and overwhelming vote in
defeating the passage of prohibition
resolutions in the Presbyterian General
Assembly. His argument in favor of
high license as means of reducing the
liquor traffic in large cities was strong
and eloquent and manly, and won the
day among the biainy and think
ing clergymen OF his church. The
saloon in politics will soon 90 if high
license prevails everywhere Clernaont
Courier.
Mr.. Courier, ii your inclined towards
recording a little history, just as we'll
have it correct. 1t will be conceded that
DR.. Crosby is great and good man, but
it may as well be conceded that very
large number of Presbyterians consider
the DR.. leedle off on the temperance
question, and still larger number do
not think that DR.. Crosby is greater
than the General Assembly OF the
Presbyterian Church. The following
resolution embodies its own ex-
planation, and was passed in the
General Assembly against DR.. Crowsby's
Strong and eloquent argument" as
we'll as his open protest on the floor of
the Assembly. The vote was one hun
dred and ninety.three for, to eighty.two
against the resolution. 1t reads:
The General Assembly, in re-affirming
the deliverances of former Assemblies
on the subject of temperance, calls par
ticular attention to the deliverance OF
1888, as follows: "That we earnestly
recommend to the ministers and con-
gregations in our connection, and to all
others, to persevere in vigorous efforts
until laws shall be enacted in every
State and Territory of our beloved coun-
try, prohibiting entirely traffic which
is the principal cause of the drunkenness,
and its consequent pauperism, crime,
taxation, lamentation, war, and ruin to
the bodies and souls of men, with which
the country has so long been afflicted"
That does not sound rs though he
"won the day" And further, the elo-
quent ID. ID. contented himself ON his
protest the next day by having the As,
sembly declare that its utterances did
not refer to any particular party. Editors
and d. DIS are both fallable.

CORPORAL TANNERS SUCCESSOR
Poole Of New York Said to be the Com
ing Pension Commissioner.

The pension commissionership has been
nearly settled 20 many times that all reports
concerning IL are received Of late with reser-
vation Of doubt But il looks this time as IL il
were so and that Poole of New York, whom
Senator Hiscock has been pressing for the place
since before Tanner was appointed. will be the
next commissioner.
Mr.. Hiscock has been here working for
Poole with all his might, and the Vice Presi-
dent was at the White House today, presum-
ably talking on the same subject Candidates,
one ata time, have been brought to the front,
examined and rejected, and the big Grand Army
men have been unwilling to take the RESPONSE
biiities OF the position. Meanwhile Poole has
stood steadily as q candidate, and Hscoek has
been pulling the wires in his favor.
The only thing. il is understood that stood in
MS way from the first was the desire on the
part OF the President to get prominent Grand
Army leader to take the place. Failing in this
the name Of Poole came strongly to the front
again, and it is asserted now that his appoint
ment has been decided upon and is liable 10 be
made At any hour.

NEW York, Oct Is, II a.m.-Ths opening OF
the stock market was very moderate in volume
Of business and fret prices were quite irregular
but generally lower than last nights figures,
declines extending to Is per cent. The market
continued heavy to weak in the early dealings,
though the movements were slight except in
st. Paul, which scored a net decline of "a per
cent to 1913. Richmond and West Point was
the enc strong feature and on a rather large
business, for that stock rose q per cent to 231(.
The same stocks led in the dealings that have
been prominent for the past two weeks, but
there was no activity outside of st. Paul There
was decided better tone to the dealings later
in the hour and many stocks were brought up
above the opening figures, the market at ii
o'clock being quiet but dull and steady to firm
at small changes from the opening prices,
though sugar was up nearly per cent.

DID SHE COMMIT SUICIDE.
The Police Boat Will Search the River
for the Body Of Belle Brown.

Mr.. Brown, the father OF Belle Brown. the
missing girl has communicated with friends in
Baltimore, Martinsburg, W. Va, and also With
persons in Virginia. he has received replies
to all his inquiries but no one has seen any
thing Of the missiag girl.
THEORY OF THE PRIVATE DETECTIVES.
The private Detectives have investigated the
various clues furnished, but they are still satis-
fed that no one has seen the girl since she left
the Holy Cross academy. They still cling to
the belief that she has not destroyed herself,
and have an idea that she has gone to Phila-
delphia or New York.
Last summer she spent several weeks in
hectortown, Va, and il was limited that she
had probably gone there as she had made
several acqusintances IN the town, but persons
from there say that she has not been there
since summer
THE MYSTERY DEEFENs
as the investigation proceeds, and the officers
are as far from solution Of it as when the case
was first reported
The police boat will make tour Of the river
from above Georgetown down. and the officers
will make thorough search along the shores
as it is possible that the girl has carried out
her intentions expressed in the letter.
II was reported this morning that Mr. Den
ham, Q grocer, had made a statement TO the
effect that he could tell the name of the per-
SON who could clear away the mystery. Mr..
Brown called on him this afternoon and he IN
dignantly denied that there was any truth in
the rumor.
